More teasing.
I've always liked Winona.

@JC I liked man in the high castle, looking forward to series 2 to see where it goes.
TWD, can't see the point of latest ep, time filler....I guess just to not put the saviors on every week cos that'd suck too....
Had to wait until after farking Gilmore Girls (which was apparently the musical episode that even that wife said sucked) but eventually caught up with TWD last night.
Yeah it was a bit of waste. That Lezzo is bloody annoying as well. A whole episode focussing on her was a bit much. But what I guess they're doing is introducing us to the different communities that will ultimately unite to take on the saviours.
-
@Rancid-Schnitzel yeah I guess that's why they talked about their interaction with the Saviours and let that chick sit on that knowledge until the time was right for everyone to deal to the Saviours.
I expect they will need another couple more 'communities' to have a decent army to take on Negans.
Be good to have a bit of geographical knowledge of where they all are, as you have to assume it is a matter of miles given people walk places, however with the fact they aren't aware of each other and don't cross paths, you'd be thinking more like 20-30 miles....
Oh well, Westworld tonight

Jesus, i need to stay off this thread, i hope to one day actually watch the Walking Dead.
Anyway, i am currently battling my way through Season 2 of Mr Robot. Now the first season was some seriously great TV, a real interesting premise.
But this 2nd season is fucking hard work. It's like they've tried real hard to up the "dark" side of it. And I've just got to the point where
:::
the whole first 7 fucking episodes were a sham, he's been in prison the whole time? fuck you fluffybunnies, that's not a plot twist, or a mindfuck, it's a giant 'fuck you!"
:::
I will stick it out, because I've come this far, but it doesn't have me riveted, and i don't feel compelled to watch a shit load every night. But this better be fucking going somewhere.
2nd Season syndrome is very real
I've just finished the 2nd season. Nowhere near as good as the first. I found it largely pretty confusing and wasn't really sure where it was going. And I'm still not totally sure, the final episode didn't answer a whole lot of questions.
-
Just started American Horror Story. Pretty cool so far, though I see it has 4 seasons and I'm not really sure how they'd keep this story going for that long. Anyone else watched it?
-
@No-Quarter yeah I think @MN5 has watched them all..I watched about half of S1 and drifted onto something else, more a timing thing with something else I wanted to watch I just haven't gotten back yet.
-
@No-Quarter fuck it. I've tossed it and started Westworld instead

Series were a bit of a mixed bag. Some pretty compelling, some just fucken stupid. Overall pretty entertaining though.

@Rancid-Schnitzel Yeah, Shameless is fucking cool. Makes me feel good about being average.

Loved Season 1 & 2. Coven & Circus were pretty poor.

Season 2 felt like they had no fucking idea what they were doing & just had to make something up & toss it out. It actually felt like they had written the first 6 episodes & then thought "we've fucked up" and then had to try rescue it. I'll still watch S3 as I loved S1 & still hope they can turn it round given that extra year.

For Gilmore Girls? I don't have words.
Just watching a few minutes the other day brought back some horrible supressed memories. Like that French guy. Fark me I want to kill him and his creator.
One of the extra digital channels over here seems to play nothing but - I seem to remember flicking through channels multiple times and those two smarmy bitches and their smary fuck friends making smarmy fucking comments... its nothing but that!
I don't get why its so successful - chicks HATE smarmy bitches. Its not escapism.
We've now got a channel over her that is SOLELY dedicated to that "reality" shit. I kid you not. Hour after hour of completely vacuous shite.
In answer to your next question, no I do not know what it is like, I have never allowed it on the TV.
I am just getting into Stranger Things. Not sure about it yet but there's enough there to make me persevere.
I didn't much care for it.
After watching it all the way through I'm coming round to your way of thinking. Not sure I'd invest much time in series 2.
-
Started on a new series called Good Behaviour, solely on the basis the female lead is hot...
Watched 2 eps, unsure what sort of direction the series will take, but is an easy watch.
Also noticed a couple of other series that look decent - Frontier and is also onecalled Shooter based on Bob Lee Swagger
-
@taniwharugby have started shooter, it's an easy watch so far and good enough, still not quite convinced by Phillipe in that role but Wahlberg must have been.
Chance is also very good, 8 episodes in.
-
I have to admit that Phillippe is the one negative I feel while watching this. I guess he is Wahlbergs mate or something and needed a job. He isn't a bad actor he just has a really bland face that adds little to his character. Kind of the Affleck effect.
Apart from that I am still watching it as light entertainment because it is reasonably well made.
