Binging Silicon Valley is very much like being beaten up by jokes themselves.
So tired, but so much to laugh at.

I will just finish season 2 before bed.

No harm in it.

Seanny One Ball 06-15-2020 10:19 PM

Laughed so hard over the last 24 hours I think I legitimately hurt my chest.

Mike Judge is no slouch. Genius.

Destor 06-15-2020 11:03 PM

Very underrated as a writer.

Seanny One Ball 06-15-2020 11:18 PM

I feel like someone should have pointed me towards this show before I went out of my way to watch it.

Going to recommend to everybody.

I'm half way through season 4 of Veronica Mars; its as sharp and witty as the original three seasons. I'd forgotten how much I missed the show.

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.

Watching Chernobyl. Just finished episode 2. Really good so far.

Is Miniak in it?

Seanny One Ball 06-19-2020 08:20 PM

I watched Chernobyl the other weekend and it really was good.
I watched the first episode twice.

I've been trying with ep 1 and I don't know why but I cannot fucking get into it. Been hearing rave reviews from everyone and feel like I SHOULD like it, but maybe I just don't like disaster shows. I dunno. Disappointed in myself.

Seanny One Ball 06-20-2020 04:41 PM

What you want to do is skip to the disaster scenes and see if that interests you enough to ask why.

Seanny One Ball 06-20-2020 04:41 PM

That's exactly what I did and I ended up watching it all in a oner.

El Vaquero de Infierno 06-21-2020 02:45 PM

I just finished season 4 of The Last Kingdom; solid and as entertaining as the other seasons. If you like Vikings, The Witcher and other shows of that nature, you'll enjoy it.

Seanny One Ball 06-21-2020 02:51 PM

Vikings was GOT with the violence turned up and the tits turned down.
There will never be an equal.

El Vaquero de Infierno 06-21-2020 04:34 PM

Alas, I don't think Lagertha every got her boobs out. That makes me sad.

Black Widow 06-21-2020 09:19 PM

Mr Iglesias

Damian Rey 2.0 06-22-2020 12:08 AM

2 episodes into watchmen. Color me interested.

It's really good!

Nark Order 06-22-2020 09:48 AM

The Outsider on HBO is pretty magnificent. My girflriend is a huge Stephen King mark so she roped me in.

slik 06-22-2020 12:15 PM

I liked The Outsider - great acting and I think the costuming is pitch-perfect for small towns in the south. I do wish it was like 2-3 episodes shorter though.

Seanny One Ball 06-23-2020 01:05 PM

Jared so freaking funny in Silicon Valley, also a huge fan of Big Head.
Show didn't miss a beat when T.J. Miller left, it was already too good.

Destor 06-23-2020 02:03 PM

Watched succession. Best show on hbo.

Seanny One Ball 06-23-2020 02:16 PM

Looked at that there, nice cast and premise.
Will have to watch one or two.

El Vaquero de Infierno 06-23-2020 02:46 PM

I'm on to the final season of Homeland, and I'm about half way through the first season of Billions.

With the exception of seasons 2 and 3, Homeland has been a solid and entertaining series throughout its 8 seasons

give it atleast 2. 101 sets the premise. 102 is more what the show is going to be like. Its a show that gets better as it goes though.

Damian Rey 2.0 06-25-2020 05:22 AM

Finishing up watchmen. The hooded justice episode was fucking great.

It only gets better.

Destor 06-26-2020 01:13 AM

Im on ep3. So far i strongly dislike it

Ol Dirty Dastard 06-26-2020 07:27 AM

I look forward to hearing why. (Nah jk, I don't at all.)

Destor 06-26-2020 12:06 PM

No worries, it'd go over your head anyhow

Seanny One Ball 06-26-2020 12:26 PM

I just found out I haven't seen two whole seasons of Curb Your Enthusiasm. I have no idea how this happened but it's not even the latest seasons...

This is like finding an uncashed premium bond.

Seanny One Ball 06-26-2020 12:31 PM

Ricky Gervais and Michael J Fox in great episodes, Michael J Fox looks good. Made me feel good seeing him getting some comedy out of Parkinson's.

Black Widow 06-26-2020 01:27 PM

How i Met Your Mother

Lock Jaw 06-26-2020 01:32 PM

Loved the Michael J. Fox episode of Curb

Seanny One Ball 06-26-2020 01:34 PM

The violin bit made me put my face in my hands.

XL 06-27-2020 10:52 AM

I drifted away from CYE but I can’t remember at what point.

El Vaquero de Infierno 06-27-2020 01:01 PM

Finished the final season of Homeland; good stuff.

I've also finished the first season of Billions. A bit ridiculous, but I'm happy to watch Paul Giamatti chew the scenery any time, and who doesn't like Maggie Siff?

I'm half way through the first season of SW: Clone Wars, and I'm going to start seasons 4 of Agents of Shield and Fear the Walking Dead.

Sepholio 06-27-2020 02:17 PM

Havent watched any shows in awhile but now season 3 of Dark is out so time to binnnnge.

Lock Jaw 06-27-2020 02:37 PM

Damn.... Still never watched Season 2....
