Leftovers season 1 does get a lot better after a lot of the first half being sorta terrible. I went back to it after s2 (ducked out about halfway through initially) and found it was worth it overall. Plus they actually set up the ghost Patti thing.

I think I made it to episode six this season the one where Erika and Nora confront each other, and Regina King's performance was so sad, so draining for me that I just haven't had the will to go back. I mean it's amazing but it is such a heavy show.

I definitely recommend going back soon. The second half of the season is stronger than the first imo. Ep 6 might be my favourite overall but most will tell you it's a later one that is also incredible

It's good. Justin Theroux becomes a spy at some point and it makes sense. It's the most Lost episode in a good way.

I went back to it after s2 (ducked out about halfway through initially) and found it was worth it overall. Plus they actually set up the ghost Patti thing. I sort of get the feeling that the first season, especially the first few episodes, were written with "rewatchability" in mind. I still think that the episodes in the second half of the season are better, but there are definitely moments in those first couple episodes that are cast in a different light by The Garvey's At Their Best. Unfortunately, when a show is still in its first season and the people watching are waiting a week between episodes, that sort of writing can definitely be a turn off. zoux posted:I'll finish it at some point but it's like, hmm do I watch another episode of fun pirate show or do I watch Unbearable Grief: The TV Show I'd say just watch the last 4 episodes as a movie with a box of tissues some time, cause it really has a fantastic and hopeful payoff. I'm not going to say that it isn't emotionally exhausting, because it can be, but it's so worth it.

They'd probably just recast Frank as Shaquille O'Neal and never acknowledge it anyway.

LORD OF BUTT posted:I never thought I'd be saying this after how fantastic seasons 8 and 9 were, but... I think Trailer Park Boys jumped the shark. After season 7 I was ready for it to be done, but I'm not sure what you're talking about here. I thought Swearnet was a clever way to break the fourth wall. I can see an argument regarding the cameos, but having a stray bullet finally hitting something relevant was gold, as was the hospital onion ring wedding. They've left us with plot and a vague cliffhanger. If you think season 10 was jumping the shark but Steve French was not, I just don't know what to tell you.

Kind of funny how this week's episode of The 100 had a scene that they filmed but someone realized at the last second that they couldn't actually show it so the whole thing was awkwardly cut.

DrVenkman posted:Now that's settled, SLASHER is a fun little show that's filling the void of the sadly departed HARPER'S ISLAND. It has a godawful first episode though (Minus some fun kills) as it's full of the worst kind of expositional dialogue. I just tried the first episode of this. It's corny and cheesy and kind of bad but in a fun way. But does the lead actress ever stop tripping over her real accent, because it's super annoying.

It was sort of awkwardly shot to completely hide the carnage. Edit: of course there is probably no Twitter outrage over dead ........kids.........

There was a scene where the new villain of the show murdered a bunch of pre-teens and held up one of their severed heads as an example of what they did. Everything about the scene was framed like they filmed it with everything in view but had to cut around it.

The thing about season 10 was, the characters and the overall sense of humor felt way off. There was a certain... gentleness, for lack of a better term, to the show previously that's entirely missing in season 10- even the Bubbles subplot is weirdly mean-spirited for TPB. Also, Barb's lesbian gang was a humor vacuum. Also, the rape jokes were super uncool, going along with it being way more mean-spirited than usual. Also, the entire conflict could have been avoided if, at any point, anybody in the loving park called the police- Barb's antics escalate way past "an appropriate situation to call the cops in" remarkably loving fast.

Finally getting to the last season of Breaking Bad and it's kind of funny how in the episode with the train robbery they had access to an actual train but for the scene inside the engine they had to really poorly greenscreen the window.

Also I can't believe how cheap Sleepy Hollow has gotten. Last night's episode literally had a scene where characters were cowering from a dangerous storm, cut to other characters, cut back to "man, that storm sure was something" with them walking away.
