What TV are you watching (live, dvd, etc.)? - Page 133

Rob Instigator · 04.16.2019, 08:56 AM

I can't watch Barry because I am fed up with Hollywood trying to normalize psychopathic murderers and killers and assassins as if they were something to be admired instead of something to be EXTERMINATED

I've watched the first episode and thought it was quite good. Looking forward to the rest.

It was you all that introduced me to the movie just like a year ago or so anyways.

LOVE THIS SHOW

!@#$%! · 04.21.2019, 03:24 PM

finished westworld season 2

enough interesting ideas in this show maybe for a double feature, but stretched out to 20 full-hour tv episodes by virtue of an endless fucking piano

kinda like 24-hour psycho bit not really...

more like 24-hour zardoz haaaa haaa haaaaa. but really a blade runner variation.

they’re threatening with a season 3 next year!

Severian · 04.21.2019, 08:05 PM

Finally watching season 3 of Game of Thrones

Uuugggghhhhh

Guess it was time.
Been long enough since I read the books that I don’t recall enough to be waiting for things.

Good show. Gonna binge.

!@#$%! · 04.21.2019, 09:16 PM

BIG GOT SPOILER

...

but some of the episodes can be a giant jerkoff

im starting to want my $15 back haaa haaa haaa

hbo: slow-ass action and musical interludes

—

wow this is episode 69 of all things

tw2113 · 04.21.2019, 11:49 PM

with only 4 episodes left, there's nowhere to go but up

!@#$%! · 04.21.2019, 11:57 PM

yes but to waste 2 nostalgic episodes priming us for this is a bit too self indulgent

halt and catch fire was way worse though, the whole of season 4 was one long exercise in self-sucking

anyway im not used to this weekly viewing/wait times anymore ha ha ha.

but eh im catching up with other shows in the interim

silicon valley season 4 went full-cartoon and it actually works haaa haaaa naaaa

Peterpuff · 04.22.2019, 07:00 AM

Watched through the first season of OA on Netflix, due to a friend's suggestion.

I will not be friends with that person any longer...

Season 3 but yah.

Oh and it was so good for the first two seasons!

Anyway,

When does the new season of Silicon Valley come? Usually happens alongside Veep, but Barry’s taken its spot this year. Hmm

!@#$%! · 04.22.2019, 08:00 AM

i don’t know when it comes out, i’ve just been watching what’s available on the hbo amazon channel

this waiting for shows is very 1990s lol. waiting for GOT episodes feels... strange.

but not complaining about season 3 of halt and catch fire. in season 3 they go from texas to california and discover the web (lol). it’s an exciting season. at least for me. i remember those times and understood the thing they were fighting for, etc.

there was a season 4 though. which just drags on for like 6 episodes and is not really worth watching. it’s just one long exercise in a writer not being able to let go of a character. long stares, sighs, conversations, meditative passages on memory and loss.... one episode after another after another. wtf, people!

I think it's pretty shit writing and silly. One of those shows that just throws mysterious red herrings at the viewer to keep them engaged, then does not resolve jack shit.

If you are just looking for HBO stuff to watch to get money's worth, I am ALWAYS suggesting Gervais's stuff to people here at work. I think Extras and Life's Too Short are some of the best comedies ever. Basically, they both revolve around famous people cameos who come on and play awesome caricatures of themselves.

They might be an acquired taste, but I think they are brilliant.

gervais the person annoys me for some reason, but gervais the artist writes good comedy.
