the first time i saw groundhog day was ages ago on tv and frankly it bothered the hell out of me for its ideological bent. seemed to be saying “conform,” or something. i mean, sure, the guy was an asshole, needed to be less self-centered and more mellow, but if i recall correctly the cure for his condition seemed to be to just behave like everyone says you should, or something. anyway, i liked this new version tons more, and would even rewatch right now if i had the time. still chuckling at that bizarro ending parade that was like a midnight mardi gras thing of some sort. absurd and totally unexpected, but in a good way. |

i was gonna watch it anyway... :D |
Preacher (final season)
Succession (goddamn good) Finished LEGION (disappeared waaay up its own ass with pretentiousness but still good) |
Legion ending was dope. dug it. had not listened to Floyd's "Mother" since I stopped listening to The Wall to avoid sliding into the deep depressive state that existed in me when I played that album for 3 years straight in my early teens.

Лучше, чем люди Russian sci fi about robots. At first I thought it would just be a copy of Humans, but no, it's pretty good. Unfortunately, it follows many sci fi shows that have music from 2019 playing in contemporary 2060(?) bars. Lame hip hop stuff..... All of us who know music know that it's likely to be very different in 40 years, maybe even unrecognizable? I think they could at least get some very unusual 2019 music instead. Thoughts about this appreciated. This has ALWAYS bothered me.

have not watched a lot of tv lately except for season... 5? of WORKAHOLICS
which is always hilarious and good ![]() |
Newest Chappelle Netflix special was a full-on laugh riot. Loved it.
|
I laughed a ton. The title said it all. sticks and stones. all the backlash seems to me to be nonsense aimed at keeping people from watching it and actually understanding what he was trying to say.

I do hope he decides to shift his routine more to the side of impressions though. They are spot on. |
Watched the first episode of The Dark Crystal: The Age of Resistance, my 80's sci-fi/fantasy adoring heart enjoyed it.
|
I want to watch the original Dark Crystal before I begin any sort of preview.
That said, I did start Supernatural Season 14 this weekend. |
Watched through first 3 episodes of The Righteous Gemstones. I am really liking it so far. Not at all what I thought it was going to be. Based on casting and previews, I really thought it was going to be a bit more slapstick Eastbound and Down with religion feeling. This show is actually very dark in its satire. I really get a Coen brothers vibe in it. It totally reminded me of Raising Arizona and Fargo. Very good character driven dark comedy revolving around some pretty fucked up criminal shit. Really good stuff, and Goodman is absolutely AMAZING in it so far. I think this is going to be a great character for him.

Well, you might want to dive deeper into that curiosity, and realize that The Righteous Gemstones might be that Workaholics fix you need on your comedown. Adam DeVine is in it as well. (mild, mild spoiler) In fact, I am thinking it's another genius move for this show. 2 scenes in, knowing the characters he normally plays and seeing his "street clothes" outfit, you immediately think to yourself "I know exactly who this character is..." And thus far, he is coming off as the most sensible family-oriented, kind-hearted one of the group. Totally flipping the script. Hard to explain, but people familiar with him might understand what I am saying. |
adam DeMamp is in it? hahahaha
i glazed my eyes on purpose when i saw “mild spoiler” so as to prevent me from unraveling huge plot points. but yeah i’ll watch.... - eta: it’s an hbo show! will bookmark towards a future hbo month (this one isn’t) |
I stopped watching workaholics around season 3. only so much white people getting away with murder at work that I can take.

Season 3 of Casa de Papel. On ep 4.
It's good, but it is a bit of a rehash, probably written to extend it past S2 without a lot of thought. I expected it to go in a different direction. Still, first 2 seasons are some of the best TV I've ever seen and S3 is miles above what is on usually. this guy is an awesome character! ![]() |
