Advance warning: watching it feels like repeatedly getting punched in the gut, hard, and now I feel all sick and sad. I thought the best part of that would be giving Fringe the coveted pre-Breaking Bad slot, but then they followed it up by ending on Talking Bad. Good video.

Sober posted:I mean it's not entirely off base that it's a spoiler where the simple reveal is the shocking bit, since you pretty much watch how Will basically goes batshit crazy over the course of the season. It doesn't make that development or that single moment less if you know or see it coming unlike other certain shock-spoilers. Ok that's good to know. Having seen 4 or 5 episodes I had guessed that was where it was going (hell, it's a pretty safe guess after the first episode), but it's the journey more than the destination that I feel is important here which is why I called it a semi-spoiler. Besides, scientific studies have shown that spoilers do not in any way lessen the enjoyment of a story so no worries, spoil away, I'm good.

Sophia posted:My strongest response had been mostly "wait that show was still on?" (Private Practice, I'm looking at you) but then... BLUES CLUES NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I'm almost positive many of those were cancelled in 2012. And Blues Clues, what the gently caress, that hasn't had new episodes in nearly a decade. Unless Nick Jr. just doesn't even show the reruns anymore? I dunno.

A whopping 8 episode run on a pay cable channel that was cancelled is the BEST SHOW OF ALL TV for 2013????

True Life sure has gone downhill. There's an episode on right now that I found flipping through my program guide called "I'm Famous Online." The two subjects are a girl who is considering leaving her boyfriend behind because she wants to focus on her "exploding youtube career" and a guy who's worried that the girl he's dating is just using him for his "instagram status."

I really tried to get into Enlightened but I just couldn't. The mood and tone was just so depressing that it made me look at the medicine cabinet. I suppose that's a strength of the show in and of itself, to be able to draw such a strong emotional reaction so quickly, but its one I'm not interested in experiencing.raditts posted:True Life sure has gone downhill.

That is a very funny joke and I'm going to just assume it remains that way and never, ever look up whether its real and risk destroying a little more of my faith in humanity.

That's not even a new thing, there was an episode about Internets Peoples before where the two subjects were an 18 year old nerdy girl who gets naked on cam for money and a 19-20 year old girl who was a "famous Second Life musician" and was all  about doing an open mic show in front of REAL ACTUAL PEOPLE (spoilers: she sucked).

How would you even have to "leave your boyfriend behind for an exploding youtube career"? Its Youtube. Isn't the point that you can kind of do that poo poo anywhere and without any real sacrifice or cost?

This is the only truth. Also, Enlightened is only depressing in some episodes -- Season 2 is by far one of the most optimistic shows of this decade. It's a panacea to the current trend of anti-heroes and dark critiques of society by providing quite a lot of hope. Ubiquitous_ fucked around with this message at 19:50 on Dec 20, 2013 |

noted banned rapist or not he is right about season 2. "The Ghost is Seen" and the finale especially are wonderfully optimistic.

Also it has Newsreaders (which was renewed) and Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell, which I believe Adult Swim hasn't really said anything about.

No, that was Josh Lyman. He's pretty creepy too but he hasn't confessed to rape. Honestly, it's best to just move on because not even I know how I feel about this.

She was so dedicated to making videos to entertain her legions of fans (and apparently there's a convention specifically for youtube personalities... yeah) that she didn't have any time to spend with her boyfriend, who also had a "youtube career" only he wasn't as popular as her and she felt that he was jealous of her success.

Josh Lyman posted:I've watched maybe 1/2 an episode. Oh hey, it's Raylan Givens' great great (great?) grandfather! People weren't loving about when they said everyone is in Deadwood. I have saved up my Wire 2nd viewing because I hear it is the best viewing. It's been a few years since I saw it, but I'm going to force it on my brother with a "you trusted me when I told you Shameless, Justified and Breaking Bad were good, so just bear with the first 5 or 6 episodes until it clicks" caveat and see if he likes it. e:  Jim Beaver: "gently caress us all anyway for the limber-dick cocksuckers we are" - I'm going to like this I can tell already.
