She spent several months in the mines, and it's directly stated they did nasty poo poo to her, so the change isn't out of nowhere.

Scientology will never become accepted or mainstream as it doesn’t really have any ethos but make money for the upper groups. While most religions have an ethos and make money for the higher ups. Also Catholics are um not a minority religion.

The shield is weird on the anti fax stuff because while you can read it just being Vic being lovely it’s hard to take anything from it as it’s just kind of dropped with no resolution either way.

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. If you just saw season 1 and liked it you should continue on. Season 1 and 2 are generally considered the weaker entries and it gets crazier as it goes on.

What Tywin isn’t driven by greed, he is driven by a pathological need for his family to be seen as the best do to his childhood of his father getting owned by everyone. Like he just says this in one of the seasons before I stopped paying attention

To be fair the show slowly goes downhill after the first season. Spartacus absolutely is a 300 but less boring.

Games of thrones plot ends basically how it was always building it was just insanely rushed so it was really unsatisfying. Lost had no plan and just had to end poo poo randomly

Mrenda posted:The Expanse is a really bad and really silly show. The acting, with a few (actually quite good) exceptions, is awful, and it obviously suffers from being something based off an RPG campaign. The characters keep getting in bigger and badder hijinks, completely centering on them, and despite adding more and more people to the show they all become the most super duper important people in the universe. It's entirely run by nerds who think adding bigger, flashier more excitement, excitement after excitement, ramp up the bullshit excitement is the be all and end all of drama. I don’t know if you know this but you just described most Sci fi

The shield is a show where it’s premise and it’s genre clash a lot. It’s an action show whose whole premise is against action cliches

Girlfriend is about to get murked, that dude isn't really an FBI agent, she's about to get sexually harassed ? It's good but it isn't subt.... I may have just answered my own question. The guy who writes those comics was never ever subtle. The show tones his excesses down a lot

The Shirld struggles in that it’s got a good first and last episode, but the middle is just a police procedural

Yeah that is the main problem Vic is shown as effective and at times the only effective one. So you get the first and last episode that does condemn Vic while the middle treats him as extremely effective if a bit dirty. It’s a show that’s extremely confused on what exactly it wants to be. On one hand a drama about a dirty cop, on the other a police procedural where most episodes have at least one crime that must be solved.

I think breaking bad is different. Walt owns his enemies but it’s just two drug dealers fighting. Vic is a cop which at least theoretically should be a good profession, so showing him doing bad things but those bad things being really effective undercuts any message you can have The pedophile episode is the best example of that

sad question posted:If he was completely ineffective in addition to being an rear end in a top hat the show would become a farce, though. It's like if Shane was actually the main character. I think that’s why it doesn’t know what it wants to be. If it wanted to be about a lovely amoral cop, Shane should have been the main character. But it also wanted to be an action packed police procedural, which unfortunately has all the hang ups those shows have

There is a problem where people have become obsessed with learning all the details even if it doesn’t matter. Then getting mad they don’t know the info they feel they don’t need No one cared about knowing Darth Vader’s backstory to enjoy the original trilogy so I can’t see how anything in the mandelorian would be different

She was a very important character in the clone wars cartoon.

The clone wars wasn’t obscure until the release of the new movies it was Star Wars. Just because you don’t know something doesn’t make it obscure

I mean going by the author the main thing he saw as unique was the reluctant hero. Nowadays that isn’t terribly special but at the time it really was. Though to be honest I didn’t like the wheel of time very much but I can see what he was trying.

Lampsacus posted:Rewatching the office (us). It feels so stale now, like white bread but somebody lost the plastic clip that keeps the bag sealed. I mean the office is still a pretty popular show, and while the internet seems to have turned on it, o don’t see that popularity waning any time soon.
