TV Zombie posted:Just finished JoJo's Bizarre Adventure on Netflix and it was a weirdly enjoyable experience. I know that there's more on Crunchyroll and Hulu but I really don't know how the series continued after this craziness. I definitely recommend to press on on CR or whatever, Part 3 has some pacing problems but is still generally considered a classic and Part 4 is my favorite story in the whole thing by a huge margin since it was blatantly the mold that Persona 4 was based off of (but way better).

Caught up with the second season of Atlanta, which had somehow slipped under my radar a year ago. Much like the first season, it is unlike anything I have seen before, and about something I've never seen anything about. On top of the very well written and portrayed struggle-of-life story, this season also had some of Donald Glover's weird multilayered creative escapades, which I find incredibly impressive. I hope this man keeps doing what he's doing for a very long time.

Bosch - S5 - Still good! Description: Cop noir. Written around season long arcs. Lots of good performances and LA is very prominent in visuals and feels. They're doing a great job of keeping hte quality up

Partway through Hannibal Season 3 and I think the most amazing thing about this show for me, is how he's charmed everyone on the show so that even though there's a hint of menace with him, no one stops him or confronts him with a group of people to arrest him. Like Gillian Anderson's character knows how dangerous Hannibal is, but she just seems to be enabling him. It's frustrating.

If you watch Hannibal under the impression that he is literally the Devil it makes sense.

Crate & Barrel's serial killer subplot is still the funniest thing in the show. "Like zen masters!"

The books are good, they absolutely have the same noir feel as the show, but the show does a hell of a lot to round out the characters who tend to come across a little flat in the original stories.

I've been slowly watching Seinfeld over the last few months on Amazon Prime, since I've never seen it before. Today I got an e-mail saying it's leaving Prime at the end of the month. I've just finished season 5, and I've got a few days off. Can I make it?

Solice Kirsk posted:I wish Amazon Prime had a better way of searching for shows. It loving sucks trying to find anything new on there. Without this thread or forum I would not even know about a fuckload of interesting shows across a number of platforms. Talking of which, just finished the first season of Cloak and Dagger. I have so far only liked very few superhero series - Legion, Black Lightning, Preacher - and I was ready to ditch this one too until it got off its rear end around episode eight. Sure, it's pretty flawed: it can be very on the nose, emphatically explaining plot points and character development, and the characters can react overly dramatic and seem to hold some really simplistic world views, but honestly, after the last two episodes all I want is to see more.

According to the e-mail, Seinfeld was leaving Prime on the 30th, but I was just watching an episode, after midnight I clicked next, but its gone off streaming on onto purchase? But it's not the 30th?! And I'm only half way through season 6? I suppose I could pay the £5 each for the last few seasons, but what if I do that, and it goes back on streaming?

Brown Moses posted:I just finished The Terror, it was so good I binged the last 5 episodes. Really well acted, tense, scary, and has a really solid ending. Hopefully season 2, which is a completely different story, will be just as good. Yeah....they did an awesome job with that show. The book is great as well. Dan Simmons is right up with Frank Herbert as my favorite author. I don't know the status.....but it sounds like Bradley Cooper has been actively trying to get a TV series for Hyperion.....which is a top three favorite book of mine......along with Dune and another Simmons novel, Carrion Comfort. Carrion Comfort would make for a really awesome show as well.

I just finished Part 2 of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and while I still don't know exactly how I feel about the show they certainly didn't hold much back for Part 2. So I'm curious what they do for "Part 3" with the tease of "lets go to Hell to rescue my boyfriend."

Caught up with the second seasons of American Gods and Cobra Kai. In both cases the second season is basically of the same quality as the first. Especially Cobra Kai keeps on trucking with its back-and-forth plot, appealing characters and some great comedy moments. Really looking forward to season 3 for that show.

How long are the episodes and seasons of American Gods because it's a 450 page book, what are they still talking about? How far along in the story have they gone in that time because I remember it being a pretty straight-forward road trip style adventure for the majority. They must be really stretching things out. e: To be fair it has also been like... 15 years since I read the book so I'm probably compressing stuff/forgetting things.

S1 of American Gods ended with revealing the identity of Mr Wednesday and big happenings with Easter. I enjoyed it and will watch S2 soon but the pace was a slow build and I'm hoping things pick up after the major events at the end of S1.
