Binged the new season of castlevania today. So good. Absolutely amazing fight scenes.

Sepholio 05-15-2021 12:55 AM

Almost done binging the 17 seasons of stargate. One more season to go. Really hope the rumors of a new series end up being true.

El Vaquero de Infierno 05-15-2021 04:40 AM

It's been awhile since I watched any of the Stargate series; but the stories are still fresh in my memory, so no need at the mo.

Lock Jaw 05-15-2021 11:29 AM

Were there really 17 seasons of that show? Damn.....

El Vaquero de Infierno 05-15-2021 11:45 AM

If you include SG: Atlantis and SG: Universe, it comes to something like that.

Lock Jaw 05-15-2021 11:50 AM

Ohhhhhh

I remember enjoying the movie well enough as a kid. Never watched a single episode of the show.

OssMan 05-18-2021 11:34 PM

Watched a couple episodes of schitt's creek. Some funny parts

Lock Jaw 05-18-2021 11:36 PM

Season 2 of Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist done.... not as good as season 1 I think.... still hope it gets renewed....

El Vaquero de Infierno 05-19-2021 02:26 PM

I'm coming to the end of the first season of Big Love. I'm not particularly grabbed by it, but I'll watch season 2 to see if it develops further.

I seem to have abandoned Parks and Recreation; I've watched the first two episodes of season 6, but haven't bothered to watch anymore.

New season of Love Death and Robots. Very good so far.

Damian Rey 2.0 05-20-2021 01:12 AM

Finished Ray Donovan. Didn’t know it had been cancelled, which was initially crappy to find out. Then I saw they’re going to wrap the series up with a feature length film and that made me happy.

I’m now watching Me. Mercedes with Brendan Gleeson and I like it. It’s a slow burn but I enjoy it and am on to season 2.

Destor 05-20-2021 10:52 PM

i dont know why "slow burn" has a negative connotation. it shouldn't. like anything its all in execution. its neutral.

Seanny One Ball 05-21-2021 05:55 PM

It doesn't generally have a negative connotation.
He just gave it one by saying "but I enjoy it".

Destor 05-21-2021 08:14 PM

people always follow slow burn with a but

Destor 05-21-2021 08:15 PM

like it needs defending

Seanny One Ball 05-22-2021 03:27 PM

I think you just hang around with fast and loose TV viewers.

Showsluts.

Damian Rey 2.0 05-23-2021 02:37 AM

I personally love a slow burn. Builds tension and anticipation. Season 2 of Mr Mercedes has the same pacing but a little more supernatural vibe in how they’re playing out the season.

OssMan 05-25-2021 07:53 PM

Finished that show the leftovers. I would have liked if it ended a little quicker. Feeling like maybe there was some payoff, a little. I will no longer be watching shows by "Damon Lindelof" where half the time you can't tell if someone is hallucinating, having a dream, in a flashback, or is in the afterlife. Just not interesting any more after LOST and this show

I think it's funny that some of the actors in this show had probably some of the most difficult acting jobs ever, just being in really intense situations and like submerged in water all the time, while other actors who played main characters had it incredibly easy because they spent most of their screen time being completely silent and maybe writing a line or two down on a piece of paper.

Damian Rey 2.0 05-25-2021 09:01 PM

On to season 3 of Mr Mercedes which introduces an entirely new threat for the cast to take on. The show was cancelled after this season so m I’m hoping this ends on a high note. I have to commend the show for not going ridiculously over the top or packing everything they can into the season finales. They keep with the slow build and hold their pace all the way to the end and swerve you by not going with main character Brendan Gleeson getting the last laugh against the antagonist.

El Vaquero de Infierno 05-30-2021 12:50 PM

I've watched seasons 1 to 3 of Big Love (out of 5) and I've liked it, though I've not been engrossed in it as I feel I should be. I might give it a rest for a while and I'm probably going to watch Medici: Masters of Florence. I saw the first season 2-3 years ago, but I don't think I've see the other two.

Lock Jaw 05-30-2021 06:00 PM

About to start Lucifer season 5B

Lock Jaw 05-30-2021 07:03 PM

Dennis Haysbert's voice very soothing and relaxing....

Lock Jaw 05-30-2021 11:37 PM

Watched 3 episodes today... I think I'm starting to like Disney+ method of releasing an episode a week.... clearly designed to get you to keep the subscription, but with Netflix and it all dumping at once, feel like it goes to quick and before you know it the enjoyment of the show is over.... Yeah, I could limit myself to one a week, but I'm not going to because I don't have that restraint....

Destor 05-31-2021 01:06 AM

i watch 1 ep a day personally

GD 06-04-2021 04:08 PM

Just learned that Schitt Creek’s Moira was the mom in Home Alone.

Lock Jaw 06-04-2021 04:22 PM

Catherine O'Hara.... she is rather famous, you know

I'm not originally from your part of the world, you know.

Lock Jaw 06-04-2021 06:36 PM

I guess I don't know when you moved to the USofA, so I guess that's fair....

Seanny One Ball 06-05-2021 02:20 AM

Catherine O’Hara is one of the few funny women

Lock Jaw 06-05-2021 02:42 AM

Just watched the finale of Lucifer.... last two episodes got to me...... damn....

I didn't see her name in the curriculum.

Seanny One Ball 06-05-2021 03:23 AM

It probably should be.

She’s one of the good ones.

El Vaquero de Infierno 06-08-2021 01:55 PM

Binged through the three seasons of Medici. An entertaining, if slight show; kind of in the same vein as The Tudors, with less sex and nudity.

I'm trying to decide whether to watch Nip/Tuck or the From Dusk Till Dawn series next. I've decided to leave Big Love; three seasons is enough of that show.

I could do with watching more of the Star Wars: Clone Wars series; I think I've only seen the first season.

slik 06-09-2021 04:17 AM

I never got around to watching Wandavision or Falcon/Solider bc they didn't seem like things I had to watch to understand the happenings of the MCU but I did watch the first episode of Loki. Good production design, interesting enough so far to watch episode 2 when it's available.

El Vaquero de Infierno 06-09-2021 08:31 AM

Wandavision and Falcon & the Winter Soldier are both entertaining shows; if you like MCU in general, they are worth watching.

falcon and winter soldier was good but effectively just par-for-the-course MCUism. "six-hour movie", as many others have said

main takeaway from that show is that sam is captain america now, the government's initial replacement captain america is now working for the contessa/madame hydra (whatever she'll be in the MCU) and bucky has worked out his winter soldier grief

zemo is also there and he is wonderful

wandavision will 100% have a bigger impact on the framework of the MCU, in tandem with loki's layout of the multiversal war/sacred timeline business

feels like wanda will cause a nexus event or something in doctor strange 2 as she tries to deal with the events of her series

anyway wandavision is excellent. absolutely worth it

Lock Jaw 06-09-2021 11:41 PM

Just watched the first episode of Loki.... nice "production design" but feels like maybe it will be the most "unnecessary" and "unimportant" of the shows..... but maybe it will prove me wrong. Only been 1 episode.

mitchables 06-09-2021 11:48 PM

idk, feels like the whole backstory about the multiversal war, nexus events etc will pretty directly tie into doctor strange 2 and/or spider-man 3

could be setting myself up for mephisto-esque disappointment though i guess

was also pretty dispiriting to find out
SPOILER: show
the infinity stones are a) abundant and b) cosmically pathetic

Lock Jaw 06-10-2021 12:38 AM

Damn.... Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist canceled after two seasons....
