I finished “No End House” from Channel Zero last night. It was pretty good but I think the soundtrack is way too similar to AHS and the John Carrol Lynch connection makes it seem deliberate.

Watched two more.... one episode left that I was gonna leave for tomorrow but I literally can't stop now.... gotta know how it all ends....

Lock Jaw 12-08-2021 11:21 PM

Enjoyed it a lot.... overall Part 3/4/5 was just way too long, could have condensed it and cut out some of the "it's an action movie now" parts and made it better

Seanny One Ball 12-09-2021 12:21 AM

Sounds like a heap of shite that you got used to the taste of so you just kept shovelling it in...

weather vane 12-09-2021 01:06 AM

Always Sunny new season. Always good.

Seanny One Ball 12-09-2021 03:25 AM

I ain’t cracking that one open til I have the chance to binge it.

Dennis Reynolds is my jam.

weather vane 12-09-2021 09:40 AM

He would be your jam haha.

Finished up The Outlaws. A BBC production from Stephen Merchant and Elgin James (creator of Mayan M.C.) and starring Merchant and Christopher Walken. Crime caper/dramedy. Really enjoyed it.

Right now catching up on season 10 of the walking dead. Idk how far into it I was so just rewatching a few episodes but I am pretty sure I've never seen the full season. I watch about half a episode or so a night then go to sleep.

Also occasionally watching old WCW Nitro's. I'm in 97 where Luger won the title. Show is pretty boring. I started the Road Wild 97 PPV and haven't got back to it in over a week. Wrestling is so boring.

Lock Jaw 12-12-2021 06:16 PM

Watching the last season of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia because I somehow missed it.... lol at the Thundergun episode.... I love episodes where they have a "normal person" antagonist who is just totally taken aback by the gang....

El Vaquero de Infierno 12-13-2021 12:07 PM

The final season of The Expanse has started, but Amazon are only releasing one episode a week, so I can't see myself watching it until February, when it should ready to binge. I need to rewatch season 5, as well.

Seanny One Ball 12-13-2021 04:43 PM

This new season of Dexter is damned good. It’s as good as the first four seasons were, which is really surprising even with the same show runner. It’s hard to come back from 4-5 seasons of mediocrity, but somehow with a few years distance the loose ends grew into plot threads rich with potential.

What a comeback.

Will be watching more.

MacGruber show... why didn’t I know about this?!

Will Forte is a real comedy genius. I hope this is as good as the film...

Seanny One Ball 12-16-2021 10:32 PM

The first five minutes of episode 1 are so good I have just gotten my hopes up.

God bless you Will Forte you funny son of a bitch.

Seanny One Ball 12-16-2021 10:37 PM

Yeah I put my money on this being the best comedy show since What We Do In The Shadows came out after ten minutes.

It’s hilarious.

Seanny One Ball 12-16-2021 10:53 PM

This was a busy first episode.

4/4

drave 12-17-2021 08:10 AM

I also didn't know there was a show, but will be watching now!

ClockShot 12-17-2021 10:37 AM

Going to fire up Witcher season 2 either later today or tomorrow.

El Vaquero de Infierno 12-18-2021 11:42 AM

I finished Arcane. An absolutely marvellous show. I look forward to season 2, though I suspect we'll be waiting several years for it.

Bad News Gertner 12-20-2021 12:51 PM

Dark Side of the 90's on Vice is a really cool show. Came across the start of the Beanie Babies episode and watched the whole thing. Watched the episode on Jerry Springer and "Trash T.V. Also really good. Now watching the episode on Teen Dramas (90210, Party of 5 Etc...)

Tom Guycott 12-20-2021 11:34 PM

Just ran through the new season of The Witcher.

Without any real spoilers, I can say they changed to a linear narrative this time, and even quite cleverly addressed some of the major season 1 criticisims (like the unexplained time jumping) in the dialogue itself.

Sammy00 12-21-2021 12:35 PM

I’m watching “the Crown”. The series is very beautiful and well-shot. When you look, you get colossal aesthetic pleasure. But the feeling of chewing gum does not leave, as if the director is afraid to overload the viewer's brain. Instead of showing historical action (what is happening in the world, behind-the-scenes wars, etc.) - one clear chewed line. Long scenes with kisses, silence of the main characters, etc. Therefore, the impression is very ambiguous. It would be cool if the entire series showed world history through the prism of the life of Elizabeth Il. But alas, no. Everything is provided for this story to last 10 seasons. Otherwise I liked Churchill and the scenery very much.

El Vaquero de Infierno 12-26-2021 09:28 AM

I just finished the first season of The Wheel of Time. I've never read the books, so I can't say how much they deviate from the source material, for better or for worse. I liked it, even though identity politics is strong with this one, and I look forward to season 2.

I'll watch fantasy shows all day long, so unless it is entirely naff, I'll generally enjoy such stuff.

I might watch season 3 of The Outpost, to get another fantasy fix, before I tackle season 2 of The Witcher over the New Year.

Seanny One Ball 12-26-2021 04:30 PM

Latest Dexter episode had one of the best ever climaxes in the series’ history. This season has revived the franchise, they will have to make more now.

GD 12-27-2021 03:15 PM

I finished watching "Cowboy Bebop".

I heard it sucked. It got canceled.

SlickyTrickyDamon 12-27-2021 04:06 PM

Night Court on imdb going through season by season again, Also the Witcher and the new season of Discovery.

Cobra Kai in a few days.

GD 12-27-2021 04:08 PM

I saw the original Anime series.

Sepholio 12-27-2021 06:13 PM

OG cowboy bebop is prob the best anime ever tbh. It is to me anyways.

Talked about it a couple months ago, but just now finally got around to watching AHS. Didn't care too much for season 1, but season 2/Asylum has got me hooked now.

El Vaquero de Infierno 12-27-2021 06:45 PM

Y'all need to watch Arcane. So good.

Asylum is the best IMO. Freak Show is okay too..... but I kinda reeeeeeeeally hate musicals. It picked up steam in the 2nd half.


Hotel as just an excuse to put softcore porn on AMC for an hour a week.


Haven't watched beyond that.

Seanny One Ball 12-28-2021 11:41 AM

“Freak Show” was the last and possibly only truly great season, and it was so relentlessly grim and mean spirited that Michael Chiklis has never returned to the series. Says it’s the worst he ever felt at work.

drave 12-28-2021 11:49 AM

Truly Great*




god damnit.

Fignuts 12-28-2021 01:36 PM

Couldn't watch freak show. Impossible for me not to compare it to Carnivale, which was a much better show and made me sad it was cancelled.

Wheel of Time is super rushed. That was expected with only 8 episodes though. It has been a like a decade since I read the book. The only thing that seemed deviated was the amount of romance in the episodes. Was dialed up to the extreme.

Wish they had about 4 more episodes to flesh out the story. Matt got shafted hard.

Sepholio 12-28-2021 10:32 PM

I rather liked Asylum. Way better than season 1. I'm on coven now though and I think I like this one even more.

drave 12-29-2021 09:34 AM

Coven was pretty good too.

El Vaquero de Infierno 12-29-2021 10:15 AM

Gotta love the White Witch.

Sepholio 12-29-2021 05:05 PM

Yea really dug Coven. Rolling straight into Apocalypse as such. Will go back to season 4 after that.
