Looten Plunder posted:In hindsight, I love season 1 and have enjoyed it throughly on 3 additional occasions in binge form bit I remember being one of the crowd that had reservations when watching it at the time. NOOOOO! This is not allowed. You must either love the first half of the show and not like the back half, or love the back half and not like the first. And then the two sides must fight to the death. It is law.

That's some pretty loving good casting. Shame it's gonna be years before they get past the bit Gaiman just adapted for radio last year. I know that makes me sound sour, but I'm not. It's just weird listening to someone adapt something really well, and then wait a bit for the same person to adapt their own work again.

Sturridge had been rumored for a while but nice to finally get a cast list for a show that's been filming since October.

Every Lindelof show thread will for sure have a contingent of people convinced the show is going to be a mystery box that just strings along plot reveals. The Watchmen thread had the same thing, where people were convinced it was going to end on a cliffhanger for a season 2 despite everyone involved saying “it’s one self-contained season”.

I don't think its limited to Lindelof. Its just a thing now with viewers trying to outsmart the show they're watching and not get swerved. So for every correct Westworld guess there's 3 crazy rear end Breaking Bad theories.

how big a factor is cringe comedy in Search Party ?
|
![]() |

It's low cringe in my opinion. It's more laughing at bad decisions made by stupid people for the first couple seasons. The 3rd and 4th season make it seem more like everybody in the entire world is absolutely insane, so maybe their decisions in the first couple seasons weren't quite as unrealistic as we maybe thought. I imagine everybody in this universe finds themselves in increasingly complex crises on a regular basis.

Just discovered Somebody Feed Phil on Netflix. Good stuff, Phil is great, but it makes me miss Bourdain

He is like the less cynical version. Phil would be annoying if he wasn’t just so drat earnest.

He has an identical show called "I'll have what Phil's having" that aired on PBS. It really is like Bourdain where he had three different shows that were the same thing.

Aardvark! posted:how big a factor is cringe comedy in Search Party ? Going against the grain a little, I'd argue there's some cringe in the first season, particularly the memorial and double date episodes early on, but there's way less as it goes along. And it's never PEN15 levels of cringe. Later seasons go increasingly bizarre and satirical; the world becomes less like the Office UK and settles towards Community / 30 Rock levels of weirdness, with even weirder stuff lurking around the edges.

BBC's The Victim was so drat heavy. I am glad it didn't poo poo itself like Bodyguard or The Capture. It also made me realize how wasted McDonald was on Boardwalk Empire.
