I get that, I just found the political side, for all its complexity, a bit hollow in its apparently relentless cynicism. I dunno, maybe it changes in later seasons but I pretty quickly realised that I didn't really care about any of the characters (except maybe the dwarf guy, I liked him), and was getting a bit bored with all the softcore sex and hardcore violence.

hahaha, I felt and feel the same way. I like the escapism though

Worst thing for me was seeing the bloke who played Conan in the remake who's meant to be playing some super warrior, but does precisely fuck all for the entire season, before dying after his wife smothers him with a pillow. A pillow, for fuck's sake. It's like having Sauron perish choking on a bacon sandwich. I know you said it's more than just swords and axes but they build him up and I was at least expecting to see him indulge in some serious barbarity, but nothing. A pillow.

I cannot disagree. I am irritated at GoT just as often as I am intrigued

well, the pillow isn't exactly the main reason for his demise..but I get what you meant. |
Addicted to the Mystery Diners series.Impossible to defend on any level but I can't stop watching.

We've been watching NBC's, Blindspot. The first three episodes were outstanding and the the last couple were just so so......but I think it's headed in the right direction.

Gotham
What a great show! Caught up on Season 1 via Netflix and now we're into Season 2. |
Gotham is unhinged insanity at its best!!!
|
Yes, it is. I've been impressed with the novel approach to the Batman story.

Yeah...I've been watching this a bit too. Pretty entertaining....good for netflix n chill. |
Has anyone been watching HBO's Vinyl? I've been enjoying it, even though its been getting a lot of mixed reception. I'm curious what some of you guys think of this show.

Wait, is season 2 on? I finished Season 1 in January, and even though the show failed to deliver on a lot of its promise, I still thought it was of to a good start, and I wanted more. Not sure why folks are being so hard on it. It's well written and fairly well crafted, surprisingly well acted at times. A good series, but for anyone expecting Breaking Bad version 2.0 (or, -1, er whatever), I can see how they'd be disappointed. |
X-files.
skipped over the ones I've seen and focused on the mythology. made it to season seven. the season when Mulder finally tries to hit on Scully. when she's out of that stupid uniform she's a real fine beauty to behold but, she seems to fall for psychos. can't figure Mulder out. did he give up, content jacking off to porn? he could totally bag Scully and make her his. he's a confident witty guy. da fuck!!... tis was the 90's after all. oh dream woman Scully!!! you get my rocks off. reminds me of a joke: there's two kinds of redheads..... |
The answer to your questions are answered...in season 9. I think you can skip season 8.
|
enticing! thanks. can't wait to catch up.

been getting a kick out of a couple of comedies. Letterkenny, about a passle of young hicks up in rural Canada, and Fleabag about a horny 30 year old cafe owner in London. Both of these are worth a watch
