zoux posted:I will watch the show, and then form an opinion on it, is my plan. My issue is it's 10 episodes and I really don't want to pay for more than 2 months of All-Access at a go. There are other things I want to watch on there right now ("No Activity", finish up "Strange Angel"), but i'm not sure it's enough. I'm torn by my desire to see Patrick Stewart play Picard again and my refusal to spend more than $20 to do so. bull3964 fucked around with this message at 22:03 on Jan 9, 2020 |

Watch Evil too. I have very poor subscription discipline, I think I've had an active CBS AA account for months and I barely use it.

Sleeveless posted:Is there any genre other than sci-fi where fanboys building the narrative that the creator of a work not only had nothing to do with its quality and success but was actively detrimental on every level is so widespread and accepted. I mean Mormons write fantasy, so you can draw the same bow there.

Couldn't you wait a couple episodes and then join at a point where you wouldn't have to pay more than 1 month for the service? I mean the episodes aren't going to be unavailable after they air

Picard short trek is out. Just some backstory. Nothing critical, but a tad bit interesting.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kK2ZGOsbeqo Trailer for HBOs documentary series about the McDonalds Monopoly scam. This is the one where an inside man was subverting the process and had a group of people winning the big ticket items every year with no chance for an average person.

If Picard doesn't address the most insidious conspiracy in the Star Trek universe that was dropped and then never mentioned again, then what is even the point?![]()

This episode was very forward thinking in depicting a future where people would eat insects for protein. I also like how it handwaves away the fact they couldn't pay for an extras to fill the enormous empty Starfleet setpieces.

Croatoan posted:Did you watch the UK version? I loved season 1 but they changed it to where it sucked in season 2. It was way more like Big Brother the second time around. I don't have that much time to dedicate to a reality show. I wonder how the Netflix version stacks up. I have, in Season 1, they found the person catfishing as the girlfriend winning meant they needed to do more "catfishing" for Season 2, and the fact it was live-to-air (and Emma giving audience control of the game) made it interactive, but I felt that took away from the core mechanic. But they did enjoy how they changed the voting system, Season 1's 1-5 star system was broken, while Season 2's "Rank List" made it more fair. US Rules lean more towards Season 2, complete with "eccentric personalities" but it was pre-recorded so audience has no involvement to the show, not even an "audience favorite" prize. Much like Season 2, they got a bunch of people doing the catfishing, somebody brought their mom, and they did the "influencers save" elimination recently. but other than that. Same as it was. But from what I am seeing around the internet - people are falling in love with the show, and it's a guilty pleasure format because of the "MESSAGE, omg that's hilarious laughing face emoji AND SEND" responses. And at least when it comes to the US Audiences, it sounds like they are treating "Honest/Catfish" as the "Hero/Villain" element. Disliking most Catfishes (except for when they commentate) and liking everybody as themselves. (Shuban and Joey are favorites, while others are forcing the flirting and the catfishing) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-m4gFdrQ8M
