watching six feet under atm, s01 very nice so far

I grew up in a funeral home family and was a funeral director for 10 years.  people kept telling me to watch that show but no thank you - i've lived it so what's the point.

stranger things - wasn't this show about aliens?

It’s for people that like to cry. A lot.

that bit w/the invisible car when they leave the nightclub.. fckn killed me. had a good laugh. i love how they sometimes will let you know about a premise for a joke or whatever then put it in their pocket until it's forgotten. then bring it out like a surprise. golden.

2eps in on Stranger Things and despite its slow start, things start to happen in the end of the 1st episode, I dig...

season 1 is the weakest season imo. season 2 and 3 are solid.. fun. maya hawk is charming. 

who else is swamped with a backlog of shows? instead of cleaning out DVR space anymore, we just get buried in cues & watchlists, lol

i use mrs. torrance instead of dvr. easier than keeping track of things and knowing schedules etc. consuming media has kinda fucked me over the last year though.

hopefully Katt Williams shows up again, him running down the street in his bathrobe was the hardest I've ever laughed at this show

I was talking about this last season... indeed she is charming... btw, most of the kids are ugly af...

EDIT: @Rubin Farr's news about Max Headrom. Dunno why the quote never quoted

Saw that news yeatyesterday. I remember loving the series as a kid- weird cyberpunk sci fi... but 0 idea if it holds up as an adult. The og series is on Tubi, might take a peek and see if it's all just nostalgia glasses. 

The guy who plays Max (can't remember his name) is legit awesome in everything I've seen him in (usually bit roles, but great in Eureka, Star Trek, Supernatural, etc )

He played Moloch in Watchmen as well

that entire scene in the house and all that is fucking great. kat williams is excellent in that and hilarious. that scene is so true in so many ways about how you can show up somewhere and there's a whole thing going on and everyone's in their own story in life etc. sometimes shows get bogged down when they create a bunch of hoops for a character to go through or a bunch of tasks but that episode hangs on really well and pays off. 

edit: the apple tv show "The Line". doc series.. only 4 episodes i think. it's about seal team 7 and their deployment to iraq and the fuckn psycho chief who trump pardoned after he was convicted of killing civilians. pretty crazy. gets dark. the whole thing sucks.

Yeah I gave up around e4 but I know people who follow it religiously now 

Alright I labored myself into season 2 of The Expanse.  And STILL this show sucks ass.  Nothing redeemable about it at all to me, nothing that's made me want to keep watching.  I'm done.  No idea how this has such amazing ratings.

Wow, the 90’s eh? Just watched this, 3 hours gone in a blink of an eye. Funnily enough I was reminded of the Trump Netflix documentary. I posted up The Guardian review as it sums up exactly how I feel and saves me some typing. Definitely worth watching.

I've been trying to get as much value as possible from a month of Apple tv+ - I loved Severance and Slow Horses, currently really enjoying For All Mankind. Pachinko is the last one on my list to try to get through before I cancel.

I'm also really excited for House of the Dragon. I hated the last couple seasons of GoT but I'm a big fan of the book series and loved Fire and Blood, so I'm cautiously optimistic about this - it's a much tighter, less sprawling narrative, fewer characters and arcs to juggle, so hopefully they'll get the pacing right this time.

my favorite show at the movie moment

The Sandman.  I'm surprised they didn't replace the lead character with a black trans pansexual paraplegic.  

Joking aside, it's alright.  Gets pretty boring at times though.

I’m on ep3, and it’s a good adaptation so far, the race and gender flipping isn’t a big deal, and Gaiman is helping steer the ship, but the stark visual of Dream & Death together is one of the trademark images used over & over again in the Sandman stories. Another age.

No, I was afraid I'd be getting more of that , and the LOL origin makes me super sceptical. I don't care about LOL, unless it's rolling.

have you seen it yet?

jfc this Arcane show is bananas... at first I wasn't convinced, wasn't to much into this kind of animation style but damn, every episode is better than the last one...4th episode is bonkers... highly recommended... timj's seal of approval...
