I looked the Russian version up on IMDB, and the photo gallery has a thousand pictures dedicated to it.

I guess this makes sense but AMC is going to air El Camino on February 16th. (Which is one week before BCS returns)

I assumed that Better Call Saul wouldn't return until this fall so you just made my day! Is there any Intel that says this will be a stupid half season bullshit they did with season five of breaking bad?

I too have a TCL 4K TV and it is awesome but I still need to run ethernet to my laptop. I have ethernet running to the TV. The pinch point is seriously just my laptop. I'm just lazy and don't want to chase wire. It's annoying. The proof that I'm lazy is that there's acoustic tile ceiling in my basement. My biggest issue is that I don't want to bore another hole in my hardwood floor.

Same. The one downside is that thanks to Amazon's pissing match with their competitors you can't get Twitch on it natively and also it sucks that you have to register a Roku account to even use the drat thing, but compared to the nightmares I've seen with some modern TV interfaces the built-in Roku interface is super convenient and quick and the perks like being able to use your phone as a remote and listen to TV audio though headphones plugged into your phone are wonderful. Also it doesn't have any bullshit motion smoothing/frame interpolation that you have to turn off which is a huge plus.

Iirc, in the prequel comic to JJ Trek, B4 installs Data's memory chip, which instantly overwrites B4 and revives Data.

This amuses me because the entire point of Nemesis was that, even with Data's memories, B4 would still be a different individual and not a copy of Data... :rolleyes:

I have one episode of "The Witcher" left and I've enjoyed the season, but it feels very much like the pacing becomes much improved after the midpoint. I don't know if it's me finally putting together how all these people and events relate to each other, but it seems like Episodes 1-4 were all mystery and intrigue and setup while the back half is just straight adventuring. I mean, I'm not saying they are MOTW episodes as I can see where they can fit into the greater plot, just that the things seem to get a little less complicated.

Basically, I'm saying the show gets easier to watch past the midpoint and if I hadn't known going in that there were different timeframes being presented with the different story lines, I probably would have been a bit more frustrated with the show. Yeah, the hints are there. However, if you don't know the characters going in, a 1 line mention about a character from story line A in story line B is really easy to miss since you don't really have a grasp of the names yet.

This is my only criticism of The Witcher: the timeline fuckery has no payoff. They could have just thrown some title cards with dates on there to make things easier, or crafted some revelation into connecting the timelines, but they didn't...

Bah! Torn between my desire for media to not treat me like a babby and also not be needlessly complicated. :psyduck:

Did Doctor Who switch production companies or something this year? The video quality is a bit poo poo compared to every other HD season. It's like they filmed with 720p cameras with limited dynamic range.

I only have two episodes left for The Witcher and I have kind of mixed feelings on the show. I like a lot about the show but the overall plot isn't that great. Having the Ciri plotline from the beginning feels like a mistake because not a lot happens to her and it just feels like they're padding for time whenever she's on screen.

Colin Farrell is playing a psyhotic harpooner on an 1850's whaling ship in The North Water later this year so if anyone's not excited for that I'm not sure what to tell you.

The next two episodes won't change your mind I think. The story this season has three main plotlines and two end pretty anticlimactically.
