Hugh Grant is the best thing about it, he is very good at playing a huge piece of poo poo Update: the finale was extremely bad!!!!!! Just watch Big Little Lies season 1 again

LionArcher posted:You know what show should become either a Netflix show or a franchise of movies? The real adventures of Jonny quest. Modern. Quest world VR. Jonny and Jessy as the main leads. Hodgy is gay. It would be legit. (No, shut up about V bros it’s not the same thing. Parody of something doesn’t mean the thing can’t be remade better). You're sort of getting your wish because CW is reportedly planning a Tom Swift -- the spiritual father of Johnny Quest -- show as a spin-off from Nancy Drew.

The Undoing: People make a lot of stupid loving decisions and there are a lot less twists than expected, which is to say, none whatsoever. I love psychological murder limited series, like all the Harlan Coben ones that Netflix has I ate up. I watched it all but was pretty disappointed by the end.

John Wilson season finale was great, the start of the pandemic was the perfect ending to this show.

Revisiting Deadwood after a decade. Turns out it's still in the running for greatest TV show of all time. Really excited about/dreading capping it off with the movie.

We Are The Champions on Netflix is good fun. Rainn Wilson's narration plays it way more serious than he should and it works brilliantly as a result.

No this is terrible because it will be total trash and not what I want/imagined but I will watch and love every second of it, as I do with all CW shows and don't tell anyone. Except 100, that was legit just good/great and totally insane which helped.

I really want to know what that tweet said. My guess is something like: "The hidden connection between Queen's Gambit and Harry Potter" (Beltik and Dudley are not just played by but literally the same person)

YoutubeTV cancelled Tennis Channel and only gave users 3 hours notice. All recorded content was also removed. Rumors are Sinclair, which owns Tennis Channel and the Fox Sports networks, is going to launch their own streaming service next year. Considering live news and sports are the main reasons why people subscribe to streaming packages, I feel like the TV landscape is just going to get worse.

The way Industry handles the fallout from Sarah Parish's character is just *chef's kiss* levels of "these people are all horrible shitstains with no comprehension of human morality".

Finally watching Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist and it's a fun show even though some of the song choices make me roll my eyes. I know an idea like this probably doesn't get off the ground without going for a generic playlist but there are some missed opportunities on some big numbers. Overall though it's a really fun musical show. Dreama Walker needs to show up as a cousin or something at some point.

Head's up https://twitter.com/TheElliotPage/status/1333820783655837701 Umbrella Academy actor comes out as trans.

Have they shot any of season 3? And how does that work, does he still play a female character? I understand that being repeatedly misgendered can be very, if not simply irritating, traumatic for trans individuals, but maybe as an actor he's used to playing people he isn't. Do they recast with a person who IDs as female? I don't know what the correct thing to do here would be. I guess if Elliot is fine continuing to play the UA character that's ultimately his choice, but I could see how a person who is trying to transition would be confused and dismayed at having to essentially de-transition for work every day. I'm not very conversant on these issues so I apologize if I've misspoke, it was only in ignorance and not malice.

The season ended with them changing the past so they could just kind of hand wave some minor changes to everyone else and Vanya is all of a sudden a guy.
|
# ? Dec 1, 2020 22:11 |
|
Don't even have to change the name, as I believe Vanya is a masculine name in Russian (I'm going off of knowing one Chekov play being called Uncle Vanya) Has this ever happened before while a show was still in production?

# ? Dec 1, 2020 22:14 |

I imagine there are one of two ways it goes: 1. Page is fine with playing a female character and simply films it as such 2. He isn't and they either make the character male with in-universe justification or without Recasting it would be loving stupid lmao

# ? Dec 1, 2020 22:14 |

I would expect that it comes down to what Elliott is comfortable with. Currently on ST:D, there's a non-binary individual playing a female character and I really don't think the writers would have had an issue making the character non-binary as well if they would have wanted it.
