TV Shows - General Discussion

[lwien]

The latest episode of Happy was a real knee slapper. Pretty funny, that show. Episode should have been titled, "Happy Goes to Chinatown" (subtitled, Happy Ending) and yeah, that actually happened.

I gotta say I didn't get through the pilot episode of Happy. Alcoholic PI, totally unconnected missing child, blue unicorn!!! I like to get high and watch WTF TV as much as the next man, but this is more FFS! @Iwien, convince me I'm wrong
Letterkenny on the other hand, now there's an original show. Also, new episodes of Black Mirror released today

Alcoholic PI, totally unconnected missing child, blue unicorn!!!

You may have missed the part about the girl (hailey) being the alcoholic detectives(Sax) daughter.

It's a silly show but pretty twisted and dark, I'm liking it a lot so far.

I've been more into shows like Vikings and Knightfall on the History channel but I find myself getting more and more into all the shows that are based on Marvel and DC comics too, I really think Agents of shield has raised itself to cinematic heights the last couple of seasons and even the DC shows on the CW are getting better every season.

Could be I just really like mindless entertainment these days to escape the reality of life sucking so much of late but...

@Iwien, convince me I'm wrong

I've found that for me, I need to watch more than just the pilot of any show to get a sense if I'm gonna like it or not. It takes a few episodes for a show to jell. Gotta let it marinate for a bit.

Twisted dark humor is what I'm all about. Always has been ever since I was a kid. My parents would always look at me kinda sideways with a look of........."Did he really just say that?"

At Home with Amy Sedaris (TruTV) is tippy

Planet Earth II in 4k............that's all that need to be said !!

 

[lwien]

Ooops. Correction. Blue Planet II in 4k.

 

[Shit Snacks]

Ooops. Correction. Blue Planet II in 4k.

Portlandia started back up as well as High Maintenance on HBO

 

[Shit Snacks]

This new AdultSwim cartoon Hot Streets is pretty fun/ fucked up lol (Morty's voice on a dog)

Also did anyone watch Tarantula on TBS? Kind of a refreshing take on adult animation actually

Drunk History and Another Period are also back tonight by the ways, not to mention Baskets!

Have any "It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia" followers watced "The Mick",starring Kaitlin Olson?
It's almost like her same character on IASIP, maybe even better.

GlennHowerton/Dennis is in a new sitcom coming soon too called AP Bio, but doesn't have Sunny producers like Mick does (I think its Seth Meyers producing for NBC) Meanwhile Mac is making a couple new pilots for FOX as well

Anybody watch the HBO mini-series, "Mosaic"? If you haven't I wouldn't recommend wasting your time.

Plot=Taco bell shits
Acting=??, I didn't see any.
Technical Elements=I mean they used some kind of camera, I guess.

/out of 5


Does anyone know if Steven Soderbergh's mom or dad work for HBO?


(I just searched him on IMDB...no surprise when I see the plethora of piles of with his name attached. Wish I would of searched before wasting a few hours)


Don't say I didn't warn you.

Haha I dono man, he's made a lot of great shit too for multiple networks and in movies, I think he only produced Mosaic, which is a weird idea, maybe it only works with the companion app!

Good call on Knightfall, just started watching based on your mention of it!

Sad to see good shows turn bad. It happens to all eventually but a lot seem to go down hill very fast it seems to me. I'm looking at you The Good Place, The Path, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend....

What?! The Good Place has been incredible this season and I have only heard positive things about it... But I do need to start this season of crazy exgf and some day begin the path too...

 

[Ricardo]

[Shit Snacks]

lol seriously you're the first person I've heard that wasn't super into it, but I am in LA...

 

[Ricardo]

Fair enough.. . I don't know the spoiler policy here... I can say I thought the Season one finale reveal was brilliant but this season's reboot ran out of steam fast. I probably only talk TV with a handful of people .... my daughter agrees with me on this one, for what it's worth

Haha well I do have friends on the east coast that are digging it too! I thought what they did in the third ep with the multiple reboots was amazing and then all that rich character development for nonhumans really impressed me, but entertainment is always subjective!

What,no love for Dank and Dabby from the Netflicks show Disjointed!Those two make me bust a gut every time they show up.

 

[Ricardo]

Disjointed

 

[Marlon Rando]

Anyone get to start Altered Carbon yet on the Netflix?
