I can't watch Barry because I am fed up with Hollywood trying to normalize psychopathic murderers and killers and assassins as if they were something to be admired instead of something to be EXTERMINATED

I've watched the first episode and thought it was quite good. Looking forward to the rest.

It was you all that introduced me to the movie just like a year ago or so anyways.

LOVE THIS SHOW

!@#$%! 04.21.2019 03:24 PM

finished westworld season 2

enough interesting ideas in this show maybe for a double feature, but stretched out to 20 full-hour tv episodes by virtue of an endless fucking piano

kinda like 24-hour psycho bit not really...

more like 24-hour zardoz haaaa haaa haaaaa. but really a blade runner variation.

they’re threatening with a season 3 next year!

Severian 04.21.2019 08:05 PM

Finally watching season 3 of Game of Thrones

Uuugggghhhhh

Guess it was time.
Been long enough since I read the books that I don’t recall enough to be waiting for things.

Good show. Gonna binge.

!@#$%! 04.21.2019 09:16 PM

BIG GOT SPOILER


...



but some of the episodes can be a giant jerkoff

im starting to want my $15 back haaa haaa haaa

hbo: slow-ass action and musical interludes



wow this is episode 69 of all things

tw2113 04.21.2019 11:49 PM

with only 4 episodes left, there's nowhere to go but up

!@#$%! 04.21.2019 11:57 PM

yes but to waste 2 nostalgic episodes priming us for this is a bit too self indulgent

halt and catch fire was way worse though, the whole of season 4 was one long exercise in self-sucking

anyway im not used to this weekly viewing/wait times anymore ha ha ha.

but eh im catching up with other shows in the interim

silicon valley season 4 went full-cartoon and it actually works haaa haaaa naaaa

Peterpuff 04.22.2019 07:00 AM

Watched through the first season of OA on Netflix, due to a friend's suggestion.




I will not be friends with that person any longer...

!@#$%! 04.22.2019 07:19 AM

OA?

Season 3 but yah.

Oh and it was so good for the first two seasons!

Anyway,

When does the new season of Silicon Valley come? Usually happens alongside Veep, but Barry’s taken its spot this year. Hmm

!@#$%! 04.22.2019 08:00 AM

i don’t know when it comes out, i’ve just been watching what’s available on the hbo amazon channel

this waiting for shows is very 1990s lol. waiting for GOT episodes feels... strange.

but not complaining about season 3 of halt and catch fire. in season 3 they go from texas to california and discover the web (lol). it’s an exciting season. at least for me. i remember those times and understood the thing they were fighting for, etc.

there was a season 4 though. which just drags on for like 6 episodes and is not really worth watching. it’s just one long exercise in a writer not being able to let go of a character. long stares, sighs, conversations, meditative passages on memory and loss.... one episode after another after another. wtf, people!

Yeah, it's a show that snuck onto Netflix a few years ago that developed a following I guess. Season 2 recently came out and it's catching buzz here at the office. I think it's pretty shit writing and silly. One of those shows that just throws mysterious red herrings at the viewer to keep them engaged, then does not resolve jack shit.

If you are just looking for HBO stuff to watch to get money's worth, I am ALWAYS suggesting Gervais's stuff to people here at work. I think Extras and Life's Too Short are some of the best comedies ever. Basically, they both revolve around famous people cameos who come on and play awesome caricatures of themselves.

They might be an acquired taste, but I think they are brilliant.

gervais the person annoys me for some reason, but gervais the artist writes good comedy.

tw2113 04.27.2019 08:39 PM

I decided to do a rewatch of 3rd Rock From The Sun, because, well, it had been too long and it's an awesome show

ilduclo 04.28.2019 08:10 AM

Tijuana. Mexican show about politics and the press. Pretty good.

Well, I’ve read all the books, including the supplemental ones and actually I had watched more of it than I remembered before taking a bigass break. I started season 3 a couple weekends ago. Now I’ve made my way to season 5, midway through.

I don’t dislike it.

The Mountain/Oberyn scene haunted my dreams in the book, and it will haunt them again now that I’ve *seen* it. Ugh.

don’t worry it will be there for you whenever you feel like it if you ever do. i used to watch this a year behind broadcasts, once discs were released. makes for a good binge.

Minder: The Dennis Waterman Years: Seasons 1-7

This is 20 discs of pure nostalgic heaven for me. Easily my favourite TV show as a kid.

Yep I enjoyed that. Lot's of good chuckles to be had there.

!@#$%! 05.02.2019 09:25 PM

been going thru hbo back catalog a bit.

- true detective season 3. that’s some dark, depressing shit. carmen ejogo is hot as fuck tho.

- vice principals. HILARIOUS

also running down my expiring netflix subscription

- the santa clarita diet. very fucking funny. the justified guy acting like a complete goof is kinda shocking
