never got past episode 1 season 1.

The first season of Stranger Things was alright but I couldn’t get past the first episode of season two because it was more of the same. Purely nostalgia porn for people who grew up in the 80’s, but I was born in the 90’s so I couldn’t give a fuck. I’ll start watching in season 11 when they’re all old and even weirder looking, dressing like Power Rangers or some shit

Legion 3x04 was fantastic. Don't want to spoil anything so I'll try to be vague- the tick tock cut scenes were very reminiscent of Twin Peaks' third season. I hope my ideas will grow into something akin to that some day sooner or later. Love it

this show is mostly a dull mess, but yeah, there are some bursts of uninhibited imagination such as ep4 that make it worth it.

i keep watching legion but damn, it's so fucking cocky, just like David, the main character... i feel like punching this series just to get its smug out of its face... it thinks it's so edgy... it's not that clever, in fact, it is as dumb as stranger things, you can only get past trough it if you dumb your brain way down... those fucking filler cheesy music videos, Farouk's dialogue's switching between french and english, oh my lol, i can't help but cringe... also, i've been watching this last season with headphones and the soundtrack is shitty as hell...

in terms of the public reaction being vaguely pessimistic towards S3

i actually liked this season way more than the past 2... i'm glad they leaned on the campy/corny side...

Looking forward to not rewatching breaking bad in a few years so i can enjoy how much worse it is then than it already was the first time around.

Not sure if that sentence worked.

Is Luther any good?

If you like terrible plots, dismal scripts and Idris Elba's general lack of acting ability then yeah, it's ok.

@Tim_J @eugene You two should read the Legion comics if you're interested in the character. David in the show is a bit much. The whole Syd storyline just weirds me out, if it ends the way it is now it's such a one sided SJW move.

Here's pure Legion in the comics:

I love it, has a sorta Moebius vibe.

The comics and TV versions of David have almost nothing in common except his father.

people complaining about netflix originals should be a netflix original show

I thought season 1 & 2 were pretty good. It starts to get a little too unbelievable later on, and I found season 5 to be the least tense/most boring of all them. It's definitely one of those shows where you'll find yourself saying "c'mon...there's no way he could know that."

Agreed.

Cheers, looks like I'll give it a miss then lol. Cheers for the other replies too

Rewatching some John Adams with mum, one of the best HBO series ever.

Does anyone else's country use IPTV?  They use it in the Middle East I've experienced, but haven't seen it anywhere else yet.  It's streaming cable; we had OSN, but the shitty ISP Mobily cut it off to our overseas location.  Here's the 411:

New Rick and Morty season 4 speak peak is not good. The fact that this is what they chose to use as a sneak peak is worrisome. I know they have more writers now so they can chug out episodes faster. And I won't be surprised if it shows.  Just comparing it to the first season it lacks that creativity. Like... an episode centered around creating apps....*groan*

But you know, there's no context to the clip so maybe it is better as a part of a whole.

i tried aggretsuko and it's unbearable... couldn't get past the 2nd episode...

It can't be helped. I can understand why someone wouldn't like it. Part of the reason I like it is because I can relate to the characters. There are many "that is so true" moments.

Tried Tuca and Bertie?

why did you dislike aggretsuko? Just the over the top humor? Or it just wasn't funny.

And wut about that doc and marty clip?!?1

well, horrible annoying soundtrack (and i'm not referring to the death metal song), awful animation, and honestly I didn't find it that funny/engaging...
