Leverage: Redemption




Just learned this is a thing! Love this damn show. DAMNIT HARDISON!!

Lock Jaw 07-25-2021 07:18 PM

Just finished watching The Flash S7.... lol at it culminating in a lightsaber duel (and not in a way that was supposed to be funny... just a super serious moment of speedsters suddenly fighting each other with lightsabers and Barry suddenly being a good swordsman).

This show should probably just end, especially with losing like half its cast and replacing them with uninteresting characters.

El Vaquero de Infierno 07-26-2021 02:35 PM

Finished season 2 of Buffy; so fucking good! On to season 3.

I (re)watched season 2 of Sharpe this weekend. By modern standards, the production is small scale and a bit dated, but it is still a quality show, 25+ years on. The intro music gets me every time.

White Lotus on HBO Max

very very funny and twisted -- Steve Zahn and Jennifer Coolidge should get Emmy noms for it IMO

Supreme Olajuwon 07-26-2021 07:23 PM

In the most recent episode, Hank beats up a retarded fellow. And thats the denouement of the story.

This show is wild.

Southern justice baby

My only nitpick is Noah's sometimey southern accent. He's a better actor than that, c'mon man!

Also sucks that Timothy Hutton got Me Too'd. Great he's cleared of the alligation, but way too late to get back in on this, but that was written around and even adds a major plot driving device.

Here's hoping Sterling makes an appearance.

Also, Elliot apparently has a type: dark, dusky women of dubious ethnicity who can potentially kick his ass/kill him.

Tom Guycott 07-27-2021 01:09 AM

So, I just watched Masters of the Universe: Revolations and have zero idea why a bunch of manbabies exploded mounds of vitriol all over this. I rather enjoyed it, and look foward to the rest of it (since it is only chapter 1, after all). The way it's written seems akin to the Transformers miniseries(es..? More than one) that filled the gap between the Cybertonian Wars and The Autobots crash landing on Earth in The Ark at the beginning of the 80s cartoon.

The only thing I'm unclear on is if in this canon, the 2002 series is also included or not. There is nothing specifically contradictory outside of King Grayskull being a black dude in this one, but he's even DRESSED the same as his appearance in 2002. I mean, Kev went out the way to have Skeletor specifically drop some Langella lines from the Live Action movie, but that was more easter egg than trying to world build. I just want to know if this is going to take a hard left turn and re-establish The Snake Men or something.

I will say, though, the casting is a complete **chef's kiss** and you couldn't have cast a more appropriate Evil-Lyn.

Also, there's a body count here. Like, on the level of Transformers:The Movie, so there's another comparison I just made to one of other big 80s toy franchises that ruled weekday afternoons (or Saturday morning depending where you lived).

Also, in the back of my mind, I wonder if this is going to end up tying into She-Ra. Especially with this whole concept of a "champion".

At any rate, I like it, and I don't get why dudes are blowing a gasket over it. Strikes me as the same people who are butthurt over The Cleveland Guardians.

Lock Jaw 07-31-2021 01:09 AM

Just finished watching Season 1 of Stargirl..... My cable box died when it was airing and I lost the last half of it..... then subsequently forgot it existed until seeing recent promos for the impending second season.....

Really enjoyed it....

SPOILER: show
Wish they hadn't killed off Brainwave Jr. though.... he got the short stick in the comics and an even shorter one here.... too bad because really interesting character...

El Vaquero de Infierno 07-31-2021 03:22 AM

I'm half-way through season 3 of Buffy; still goodness, though I don't think the writing is as sharpe as the previous two seasons.

I'm rewatching the first season of The Witcher at the mo. Now that I have some distance from Witcher 3, I can say that Henry Cavill makes a solid Geralt.

Seanny One Ball 08-01-2021 01:07 AM

I’ve been re-watching Curb Your Enthusiasm in a random seasonal order.
Season 9 is fucking great. Genius comedy.

Lock Jaw 08-04-2021 01:07 AM

Been watching Star Trek for some reason.... for as big a fan as I was growing up I never really watched the original series... seemed "cheesy" to me as a kid....

Now as an adult still seems cheesy but I can appreciate that

weather vane 08-04-2021 02:30 AM

Dave.

El Vaquero de Infierno 08-04-2021 01:20 PM

I'm on to season 4 of Buffy; the first episode has Pedro Pascal in an early role as a vampire. Crazy.

Finished season 3 of Sharpe; not as strong as the previous 2 seasons. I will start season 4 at the weekend.

Damian Rey 2.0 08-05-2021 01:11 AM

Sam Elliot is reportedly being cast in a Yellowstone prequel. Sign me the fuck up.

El Vaquero de Infierno 08-05-2021 12:18 PM

Sam Elliott is gold, but only when he has a moustache. I saw him in something else, without his moustache, an it was just wrong. Plain wrong.

Seanny One Ball 08-06-2021 01:47 AM

Season 2 of Ted Lasso stinks of shit and it’s only two episodes in.
I knew I must have been vulnerable when I enjoyed the first one so much.

Supreme Olajuwon 08-07-2021 02:20 PM

Hank just got raped by a dolphin.

Supreme Olajuwon 08-07-2021 02:24 PM

And now Hank just threw another guy in the pool so the dolphin could rape him too. And thats the denouement of the story.

This show is wild.

Tom Guycott 08-11-2021 04:42 AM

Started watching Laudermilk. Not quite Shameless, but more hardcore than Becker. I'd say in the ballpark (hey, a pun!) of Brockmire.

Sepholio 08-15-2021 12:15 AM

Listen up. Stop whatever you are watching and go to Netflix and watch Brand New Cherry Flavor. I have no idea wtf I am watching I just know that whatever it is it is one of the most incredible things I have ever seen. I am 2 episodes in and I am simultaneously so intrigued and baffled that I can't even explain wtf I mean. This is just so.....surreal. And unique. There is nothing else I can think of to even compare it to.

K back to watching.

Sepholio 08-15-2021 01:51 AM

what. the. hell is going on omg its like Junji Ito made a baby with Stranger Things and then the baby grew up and formed a human centipede with Species and True Blood and The Ring and Parasyte and god knows what other weird shit while they were all out of their minds on DMT and it somehow resulted in them merging into one Cronenbergesque television creature.

Edit: There's a healthy dose of the Dorohedoro anime in here too.

Sepholio 08-15-2021 01:57 AM

For example:

SPOILER: show
I just watched a girl who had previously been barfing up baby kittens that grow up in a couple days and whose blood gives people spiritual powers instead form some kind of strange neovagina on her side just below her ribcage which she then kinda fingered until she was clearly horny and then birthed one of the kittens from it instead onto the bathroom floor. A few minutes later a Biker zombie comes in to retrieve the kitten for this lady who is some kind of crazy ass DMT witch. Immediately after the biker leaves the girl gets the guy who is with her to fucking fist her new neovagina, before mounting and riding him while he continues to fist her nearly elbow deep.

THIS SHIT IS INEXPLICABLE

Seanny One Ball 08-15-2021 04:23 PM

It sounds like it might be trying too hard or is Japanese and therefore relatively normal.

Supreme Olajuwon 08-15-2021 05:14 PM

Just finished Schitt’s Creek. Very, very good. Don’t know if I’d put it up there as all time great show but I certainly enjoyed myself.

Need a new show now. May just do a rewatch of What We Do In The Shadows before season 3 starts.

slik 08-15-2021 07:05 PM

Looking forward to the finale of White Lotus tonight on HBO...so funny and good

Lock Jaw 08-18-2021 12:59 AM

Watched season finale of Superman & Lois.... overall a good show.... still think they should have got someone better to be Lois. Or just swapped the Lois and Lana actresses.

Right when I started to get used to Lois' lazy eye, I got super freaked out by her massive forehead V-shaped vein

Good show

:y:

Seanny One Ball 08-18-2021 02:41 PM

Lock Jaw hating on Bitsie Tulloch warms my old black heart.
She is pretty bad... Nearly ruined the excellent “Grimm” show by not staying dead.

rez 08-19-2021 08:34 PM

SurrealEstate....I like it but question if it'll get a 2nd season.

PapaGeorgio 08-20-2021 07:18 PM

Really enjoyed what Kevin Can Fuck Himself did.

Seanny One Ball 09-01-2021 08:59 PM

I started watching “Eastbound & Down”.
It’s so short I’ll finish season 1 before bed. It’s decent so far but there have been a few big laughs and the reviews for the following seasons are a lot stronger so I’ll stick with it.

So far the best bit has been the baseball to the eye. I liked that a lot.

Also, Katie Mixon is a really strange type of hot. She looks very soft, like you’d be very very warm if you so much as hugged her.

Jordan 09-01-2021 10:48 PM

Kate Mixon very thick and hot.

Eastbound is one of the funniest shows ever. It has some fucking legendary scenes.

Sepholio 09-02-2021 09:22 AM

Now that Manifest has been picked up for a 4th season I have gone back and decided to watch the rest of it. Decided not to continue originally when they announced it was over after season 3. Didn't see a point in getting attached to a show I know was never going to have a conclusion.

OssMan 09-03-2021 12:20 AM

Theres a part in eastbound and down where kenny powers says "disaster emergency" which I thought was funny, then Andrew Cuomo used the term like two weeks ago...

Lock Jaw 09-03-2021 12:54 AM

Been binge watching season 2 of Lego Masters for whatever reason....

Seanny One Ball 09-03-2021 12:55 AM

It’s because you are a sad bastard.

Lock Jaw 09-03-2021 12:57 AM

Nice. I'll use it.

El Vaquero de Infierno 09-03-2021 01:45 PM

I continue my rewatch of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and I just finished 'Once More with Feeling' (Season 6); that episode still holds-up 20 years on.

I'm also rewatching 30 Rock at the moment as well; on to season 2. I think Liz Lemon might be my perfect woman.

Lock Jaw 09-04-2021 12:14 AM

All caught up in the season of Lego Masters.... love Will Arnett.... also "PrettyCool" what these people can build via Lego...
