If they have a five season plan, maybe Yellowjackets is really a reverse Friday Night Lights where it STARTS with the sudden and bizarre murders and then turns into pure sports drama.

The plot in the present timeline is a leadup to them getting the team back together to win the big match and save the orphanage.

readingatwork posted:Minor book spoilers: OK so the book series opens with one of the original reincarnations of the Dragon being a king in a castle wondering where his family as subjects have run off to. Then fantasy Satan shows up and reveals that the king had actually used the one power too much and killed the hell out of everyone without realizing it. its more that the dragon wasn't a king, more a general and the leader of the aes sedai that rallied the forces against the bad guys.

Really enjoying Yellowjackets, glad to see others are enjoying it as well. Hope it plays out without getting too supernatural, people are monstrous enough on their own and far more interesting.

Oh my god I'm three episodes into Invasion and I don't think I've ever seen a show as aggressively and totally BORING as this show. I'm probably gonna stick with it out of morbid curiosity to see how long a major tentpole show can keep up this level of UNBELIEVABLE MIND-NUMBING BORING-NESS.

It's a very very slow burn but it's not as bad as Foundation. I also don't think it's a good binge show so take breaks.

Slamhound posted:Sarah is the most fascinating character in Joe Pera Talks To You. Is she schizophrenic? Hmm, I don’t think so. Maybe bi-polar? Tho she’s certainly hurdling towards Covid being her thing she’s sensing that’s coming for the end of the season. Then I guess we wait for the next season to see how she handles that. Though it’s Sarah Connor so she’s prepared regardless.

Still working my way through The Great, and it's the Archbishop (Archie) that I've become most excited by. They've taken the character in a bunch of unexpected directions this year, and it's fascinating.

Yeah I’m halfway through now and he had some very good stuff in episode 5. Also a lot of pussy eating. Even more than usual! Now watching Hawkeye and oh my god the Steve Rogers musical is so perfectly awful hahahaha

That's an essential part of the show, unfortunately, until it isn't, and they replace it with something even loving weirder and more slippery. A lot of the show is about doubt, both religious doubt, but also in that post truth sense of the way in that the reliability of knowledge has been destabilised. It's nothing so didactic as that explanation makes that seem, but I reckon it's an essential part of the show.

Speaking of, just watched the newest episode, nice to see the show taking cues from Mancini's time on Hannibal. Someone renew the show already.

Saw that part 2 of Masters of the Universe hit Netflix and all I can say is all the people bitching and moaning about part 1 specifically about Prince Adam dying can be prepared to eat some humble pie I am loving that without the sword He-Man is basically a raging D&D barbarian

I never watched the cartoon as a kid, for instance.

It's decent, but I think you get a lot more out of it having seen the original. It pays off on a lot or lore and ideas hinted at or brought up by the original. It also adds it own take and flavor to the universe, so that can be a bit off putting to those who have seen the original and think it skews a little too adult. It's not quite at "Why is Barney the Dinosaur eating the kids now?" level as far as maturity changes, but it's certainly a more adult take.

my only history with anything Masters of the Universe related was the skits from Robot Chicken, other than that I only know memes and decided to check out part 1 because I really liked the new She-Ra and wanted to see what they would do with He-Man. Now here I am with part 2 and enjoying it
