Great series so far, halfway down to the first
But dammit, I always thought it was really based on true events ...

Lol. Yeah, nope. Hah.

Good series. Can’t wait for season 4!

GravitySlips · 03.08.2020, 01:49 PM

The Simpsons, season 3. Fuck yeah.

Also watching Better Call Saul each week. Enjoying it as ever.

I've also been itching to watch Curb Your Enthusiasm again, as the girlfriend has never seen it. However, too busy at the moment - but it's getting watched over the summer!

Better Call Saul just keeps getting better.

Is this the final season? I guess it must be, yah?

Ya, I really need to get off my lazy ass and do one of those services to watch it.

And I am not 100% certain, but pretty certain I did read somewhere that this was the last.

Is anyone else fed the fuck up with the same bullshit storytelling trope being used for every goddamn TV show?

I refer to the tired, stupid, and fucking annoying "trick" of showing us something horrendous right off the bat, getting our hackles up, then going to black and saying "But let's see where it all began..." and then you realize that coool aggro shit they showed you is a tease and they will go back to boring dialogue and bullshit filler episodes until they manage to get back to the "cool" thing they showed, at the last episode of the season. I hate that shit. I HATE THAT SHIT.

It automatically tells me what I am watching is C-level dog shit.

Most likely the awesome cover art.

Rob Instigator · 03.13.2020, 09:06 AM

watching Cardigan Trek (ST: Picard).

so many pointless reveals. so much needless fake angst. Picard/Patric Stewart feels like an old fart being humored. endless, needless murder, shown to us just to fool the viewer into thinking the show is "hard".

I want this season to end and the next one, planned and rumoured to be about Guinan and Picard fucking with Q.

Rob Instigator · 03.13.2020, 09:17 AM

also, Re Cardigan Trek, I am fed the FUCK UP with the endless side scan shots while two people are seated talking. first scan left behind picard's head, then scan right behind the girls head, then back to scanning left. fucking SHIT cinematography. what a fucking annoyance that is.

!@#$%! · 03.13.2020, 09:21 AM

lol i haven’t seen that show yet but now i wanna

Rob Instigator · 03.16.2020, 09:52 AM

while chillin at home, waiting to hear if we are working remotely (not yet) , watched the first 5 episodes of Killing Eve, written by the same person that wrote and acted in Fleabag. So far, so tense! Quite exciting, and not packed with treacle.

Be interested to see what you think after you've watched it all.

And my god the terrible things I'd let Jodie Comer do to me and vice versa...

will do. As someone who has seen many shows, and read many books, I have a bit of an idea as to how this show will shake out... will confirm if correct.

Signed up for Criterion and HBO finally. Started The Wire. I like it despite having an aversion to cop/criminal situations. Finally plugged in. I am also looking forward to re-watching the Todd Hayes film "Safe".
