Escobarbarian posted:A Netflix miniseries dropped called Brand New Cherry Flavour and it’s a horror thing set in LA in the early 90s that stars Rosa Salazar(!) and Catherine Keener (!!!) so I think I have to watch this It's pretty good. Way, way funnier than I thought it would be. It's a Nick Antosca joint too (Channel Zero, The Act), and I've been hyped since it was announced last(?) year. Not disappointed yet.

I never saw the trailer, the first I heard about it was in this thread when roomtone said they were burned out on hollywood being bad stories. Well this is not that. It's bizarre and occasionally funny/scary/intense, I don't really know how to describe it without spoiling a bunch of stuff. edit: This is probably not helpful unless you've read Library at Mount Char, but the tone of this show reminds me a lot of that book for some reason. Nothing about the specific plot or characters really, just the tone. Kind of weird. Inspector 34 fucked around with this message at 22:27 on Aug 15, 2021 |

I just saw an ad for a new season of Walking Dead. That’s still on? Even the people I know that were die hard in S6 or so gave up a while back.

Not only is it still on it has 2 spinoffs![]() ![]() It probably shouldn't surprise you any more than learning that yet another cop/doctor/lawyer show has been running for over a decade and has 2 spinoffs set in different cities/professions ![]() Assepoester fucked around with this message at 22:25 on Aug 15, 2021 |

Fear the Walking Dead is the superior show, the only real bad part is when they brought in a character from the original TWD show.

Yeah Season 11 now for the original. Last season before they spinoff to Daryl and Carol.

Watching the newest episode of White Lotus, I think the idea is: 1)you know something bad is going to happen 2) okay all these people suck except one or two I hope it doesn't happen to them 3) hmm, maybe a few more are redeemable 4) poo poo now there's like a 50/50 shot it happens to someone I care about. Maybe it's still not for you, but I like it

Great ending to The White Lotus (season 1, I guess?). Already seeing people up in arms about it on Twitter tho….and I’m not sure what they expected after the past five episodes?

It's bizarre and occasionally funny/scary/intense, I don't really know how to describe it without spoiling a bunch of stuff. Yeah. I still have four episodes to go but the hollywood sleaze is really just the setup, it turns out. Straight after episode one, which is decent anyway, it becomes fun and inventive. Rosa Salazar is doing really good playing hosed up and bewildered, I like Boro (keener) more as it goes on, and lou burke is an entertaining shithead, too. No boring subplots so far either, doesn't feel too padded. Medullah posted:All I can say is that it has the most hosed up of hosed up sex scenes that I've seen in quite some time in episode 4. I loved this. I was falling on my side squirming in giddy disgust. I'll probably finish it today.

This weekend I got addicted to and finished the HBO reality show FBoy Island and since I can't find a general trashy reality tv show thread I'm going to share my thoughts here quickly. The concept of the show is that 3 women are on an island with 24 men half of which are nice guys and the other half self-proclaimed f-boys. Despite the fact that the show is on HBO and they can pretty much say whatever they want to the still say f-boy instead of gently caress boy which is a little charming. It's a classic dating show where the guys are vying for the affection of one of the 3 girls but if the girl chooses an f-boy he has the chance to reject her for a cash prize. As you watch the show, you can tell when the producers put their hand on the scale to try to keep the show in track with the premise. If like reality dating shows I recommend it but I will say that some of the episodes drag and could be trimmed a little more and Nikki Glaser needs a little work as a host. All in in all trashy in a good way and would recommend: 7/10. Gaunab fucked around with this message at 14:58 on Aug 16, 2021 |

Mu Zeta posted:Anyone else think the actor actually took a poo poo Just checked the synopsis out of curiosity However, Shane returns before Armond can leave; sensing an intruder, Shane arms himself with a pineapple knife and accidentally stabs Armond, killing him. He then leaves in a panic. In the aftermath, Armond's body is transported on the same return flight as the guests. Rachel arrives at the airport and decides to stay with Shane. How does that work, did they stuff his corpse in a suitcase or something? Shane no repercussions for doing a murder?

Khanstant posted:How does that work, did they stuff his corpse in a suitcase or something? Shane no repercussions for doing a murder? In the montage at the end, they show Shane talking to the police and then walking off, so presumably they determined it wasn’t a crime and he was free to go. Who knows what kind of story he told them. A super rich white guy getting away with killing a dude isn’t exactly surprising anyway.
