I remember being excited to watch that spinoff show "Fear the Walking Dead" because it was supposed to be about the early days of the virus just getting started... but then it feels like they barely spent any time on that and just all of a sudden society was collapsed and it was the exact same kind of show.
Wish they would re-do it now. Show society slowly collapsing. Have protests by people who refuse to believe it is happening, etc....

Just going through stuff that has been on my DVR forever.... watching the last half of the season of The Orville.... still weird how this show does Star Trek better than the modern Star Trek shows... (Although I haven't watched Star Trek: Discovery season 2, that is all sitting on my DVR too)
Snowpiercer...first ep perdy good.

Snowpiercer.
Caught the debut episode after tonight's Dynamite and enjoyed it a lot. If TNT keeps airing the repeats on Wednesdays then that's my new plan for Wednesday nights.

Re-watched seasons 1 and 2 of Westworld; season 2 was definitely not as captivating as the first. I'm going to move on to season 3 in the next couple of days, but I think I will watch the final season of Versailles before I do that.
I'm slowly but surely getting through the first season of Fear the Walking Dead. It's only six episodes long, but I really don't care about any of the characters, especially the teenagers who all need to get bitten as soon as possible.

Finishing Sunderland Til I Die season 2.
Not as good as season 1

Lets see....
The Conners-Decent sitcom/drama. Glad it is getting another season.
Goldbergs-Should have ended this a season ago.
Schooled-So much better than Goldbergs the past 2 years,so of course it gets cancelled.
Fresh off the Boat-It is over now. But a damn funny show.
American Housewife-Lost a step this past season.
Superstore-Really lost a step this season. Kinda hoping it is over now.
Pretty much everything else I watch is either old shows or Wrestling.
Lock Jaw
05-24-2020, 08:35 PM
Damn.... didn't know Schooled got canceled until now.... was enjoying it, except for the fact I guess that I know the "90s timeline" a bit better, so it's like "Ok, now Star Wars Episode 1 is out? That's 1999, so the 1990-somethings should be pretty much over!"
I'm sure it is very much the same with The Goldbergs, but I guess the dates of when stuff happened or came out is fuzzier for me in the 80s so doesn't really bother me too much.
Finished Westworld S3. Mad that we had a multi-page thread for S1. Better than S2.
We’re now watching Breeders, a comedy about parenthood. Pretty good stuff.

I've finished the final season of Versailles; not as gripping as the previous two seasons but still watchable.
I'm coming to the end of season 2 of Fear the Walking Dead; I still don't particularly care for any of the characters, but still find myself watching it.
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is back on Prime and I've nearly finished the first season. I think I watched the first two seasons when they were originally on, but for whatever reason did not continue watching thereafter.
I'm going to start season 3 of Westworld tonight, and once that is done I'm going to watch season 5 of Outlander.
Watched S2 of The Orville. Good stuff.
Watched first episode of Avenue 5 starring Hugh Laurie. Only 5 episodes.

New Norwegian horror anthology on Netflix "Bloodride". It's rare for me to watch foreign horror but I have been impressed with the Norwegian offerings Netflix has.
I'm only ten minutes in on the first episode but it's nice and strange, just not scary yet.
Seanny One Ball

The atmosphere reminds me of my beloved "Grimm" which is perfect.
I don't particularly like horror that only aims to terrify, a bit of humour and geniality is always nice, especially when it isn't only used to set up scares.
Seanny One Ball
06-04-2020, 06:53 PM
Well, the ending of that first one was not good.
I dunno if I can sit through too many good stories with predictable or annoying endings. I like a good twist but don't sign post its presence and then lazily replace it with a less sensible one.

That second episode was excellent.
Absolutely tremendous escalation and pay off.
Seanny One Ball
06-04-2020, 09:02 PM
Episode 3 is sort of Scandinavian Black Mirror lite, but it wasn't good.
Episode 4 is almost offensively bad after a promising premise and first half. There was a nice kind of Usual Suspects style reveal that went nowhere and served only to undermine the effort. These things are being undone by their execution.
Slik if you get a chance to see episode 2 give that one a go. I know you like a good horror.

I'm going to assume you're talking about "Burke & Hare", have confused it with "The Brothers Grimm" because both are pretty crummy despite sharing no similarities and for good measure you've mistaken Andy Serkis for Nick Frost.
Is that what happened here?

Episode 6 of Bloodride is pretty great.
I think most episodes do well to maintain a crawling creepiness that they seem to lose with mostly unsatisfactory endings. A lot of bluffs in this show, too many.
This last one, along with the second, is head and tails above the others.

I've finished season 3 of Westworld; I enjoyed it, though it was weird having the story told in a pretty much linear fashion when the other seasons played around with the timeline. Seasons 2 and 3 are still not as engaging as the first season.
I'm currently in the middle of season 3 of Fear the Walking Dead, and season 3 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. I'm going to start season 5 of Outlander, and then when that is done watch the first season of The Leftovers, which I bought a while ago but for whatever reason have not watched.

On Westworld, it definitely feels different after the big "reveal" of the 1st season. Season 2 was alright, very different, but it kinda worked I guess. I was kinda stoked for Season 3, but haven't bought it yet. Thinking of streaming or downloading it, but just haven't bothered.
Figured the "real world" would break the show's "original feeling" moreso than the 2nd. Hopefully, that isn't the case.

It's pretty different, I like stuff thats set in schools though. I think s2 was about like a angry white kid school shooter type, s3 was about covering up a murder, and s4 is some people trying to expose the cover up. They try to tackle real issues that kids go through, some of it's commendable and some of it kinda misses the mark and can be pretty cringe. S4 is fucking insane though
Yeah, we’re part way through S4 of 13 Reasons. Mental.

- Couple things that arent too spoilery but will still tag
- Zach is my favorite character now after disliking him in the previous three seasons
- I thought Tony was in a higher grade? He always seemed older. I couldn't handle his hair in season 1 but he looks good now. Also he has been living with his partner for a while who is an older guy?? And why is their apartment part of a gym
- There is a scene with riot cops and it's... pretty timely, but not exactly realistic

El Vaquero de Infierno
06-18-2020, 01:56 PM
I've finished season 4 of Veronica Mars and the first season of The Mandalorian. VM was as snappy and enjoyable as the original run, though the myriad twists in the final two episodes seemed a bit overkill. As for The Mandolorian, whilst it was entertaining, a lot of it felt like filler to me.
I'm currently half way through The Witcher. Henry Cavill seems to be doing a decent job in the role of Geralt. I'll save any other judgements until I've finished it.
El Vaquero de Infierno
06-19-2020, 08:06 AM
I found the Witcher entertaining, but a bit of a mess in terms of its structure (failing to replicate what seasons 1 and 2 of Westworld did well in their story-telling). I think if they resolve that they will have a solid show.
Surprisingly, I did not find the forced diversity jarring, though I think that might be because I decided to separate the show from the games.

On season 2 episode 3. It's interesting how everything is intertwined. My one complaint is they have a fuck ton of characters and not all of them, to this point, have been key to the plot.

Is Snowpiercer worth finishing? I kind of checked out half way through and forgot about it.
Episodes start to get nuttier and more violent around episode six or seven. The last few episodes are nuts.
I enjoyed it more than the film even if it leaves more questions unanswered in its run time.
Jennifer Connelly and Daveed Diggs were very good but the support cast were a ragtag bunch it has to be said.
The Irish accent was a mistake on that one guy.

I'm watching The Handmaid's Tale at the moment and I'm enjoying it. Well, "enjoying" is perhaps the wrong word to use; I find it engaging, even though it is bleak with no hint of comic relief to occasionally lighten the mood.
I've finished season 2 of Arrow and I'm going to watch both seasons of Handmaid's Tale and perhaps season 5 of Fear the Walking Dead before watching season 3 of Arrow.

It is pretty damn good. Its a shame it got cancelled in the middle of season 4. I am not sure why FOX chose to cancel it when they did. I figured it was bringing them in ratings.

Just finished Ratched.
The show is so damn beautiful to look at. The sets and cinematography and costumes are all so visually stunning. The plot is a bit wacky at times (a lot of suspension of belief) and some characters can get a bit over the top (it is a Ryan Murphy show overall) but I enjoyed it.
It did have a semi-AHS feel to it (could have named it AHS: Hospital at times it seemed). The final 15 minutes of the last episode were great. Also, this might be the best Sarah Paulson has looked (overall) in any of her various tv series.

I couldn't get through season 4 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D; there was just no desire to continue watching.
I am currently half-way through season 4 of Arrow. I think I only continue to watch because Emilly Bett Rickards is so hot; I'm not feeling the whole mystical elements that are now being brought in.
I'm also still only half-way through season 5 of Fear the Walking Dead. Even though I prefer the direction/cast (except for Morgan) that they have gone with the series since season 4, I'll probably make this season my last.
Once Fear is done, I'm going to watch season 3 of the Handmaid's Tale, though I found the June/Offred character increasingly annoying as season 2 progressed, so I'm in no rush to watch.

Hill House was worth watching but I hated about 25% of it.
We started on American Horror Story. Watched seasons 1-3 then skipped to season 7 which seemed interesting as there were no supernatural elements to it. It was pretty good until it got deep into the cult elements (which the Cult subtitle should have tipped me off about).
Now watching Modern Family as a bit of a palette cleanser.

I'd forgotten how good Scrubs was back in the day; season 1 took five or six episodes to find itself but once it did the rest of the season was absolute gold.
They still show Scrubs on UK tv, but it is so heavily edited that the joy is taken out of the episodes.
The bastards at Amazon have upped the price of the seasons from £4.99 to £17.99, so I'll only be watching the first two seasons until they (presumably) go down in price again around Xmas.
