Very much looking forward to The Expanse. I fell off Game of Thrones and didn't give a gently caress about anything that went on this last season.

That would imply that someone actually wanted to talk about that anymore. Judging how the amount of reports on that thread went from "Nearly every single report" to "Zero" during this year I assume people finally don't care about it anymore.

I still say it's a shame Amell will get zero recognition for his scene with his Robert and Moira in that episode because he brought his a-game and he crushed it.

Since there's a thread for it and goons can't stop pointing out that pedos loving love Star Trek, would be my guess. It just leads to a dumb as gently caress derail.

Yeah, sit with that one for a minute.

(I recently discovered A Bit of Fry & Laurie and it single-handedly justifies a SeeSo subscription. I thought Mr. Show was ahead of the curve, these dudes were ahead of...whatever's beyond the road.)

So 2016 managed to give a last "gently caress You!" as it slithered away. We lost Father Mulcahy (William Christopher) from M.A.S.H. on 12/31. And 2017 if you even look at Alan Alda the wrong way we're gonna have words.

I doubt it. A lot of shows on cable are doing that now and just putting it back in later for digital/streaming releases.

I think he can hear you, Ray.
Rhyno was right about Amell in that ARROW episode. He was great in that moment, and I actually really like what that episode did. It's even more potent given how FLASH has really been dragging out how Barry hosed up in creating Flashpoint. Yes he did, and it was selfish, but I don't think that show really knows what to do with that story and just keeps repeating the same thing over and over.

Apparently yes, there were apparently (I looked it up), it's just they did what Breaking Bad did in the second season and dropped out the U from gently caress in the broadcast audio.

Incidentally Chozen (the FX animated series) is still the only show that I've seen in the US that dropped 'oval office' in the original broadcast (albeit on basic cable) and nobody noticed it. Even Chuck only got away with a 'loving' on network at the 8pm slot.

I'm not sure how available it would be for American viewers, but if you can track down the INSIDE NO. 9 Christmas Special then you should do so. It was fantastic.

Second season of Mr Robot had Darlene refer to herself as being "cunty."
