GreenNight posted:The show was 80s/90s cheesy as gently caress so I don't get it either. Daytime TV is filled with reruns of cheesy as gently caress 80s/90s shows. You're not supposed to get it because you're not the kind of person Netflix is banking on watching it.

IRQ posted:I know awards shows are retarded by why on earth did The Martian win in a comedy category? JohnSherman posted:Don't you get it? The movie where Matt Damon is blown clear across the room by a fireball and sustains no injuries other than a couple of insignificant burns is a depressing case study in isolation. If you felt anything other than grief when Damon addresses the audience to say that he blew himself up while literally smoking, you are a monster. It won because it was well made and funny. I don't think there is really a hard line where a funny movie becomes a comedy.

DrVenkman posted:THE MARTIAN being a comedy was the running gag of the night. Even when Scott won he kind of shrugged at the idea. It was like when DiCaprio won for THE WOLF OF WALL STREET for best Comedy Actor.

DivisionPost posted:From what little I (half-heartedly) gathered, it's opt-in. It's also considered a somewhat laughable metric for measuring viewership, even moreso than Nielsen. So as far as I'm concerned, a lot of this is NBC being NBC (and for that matter, Comcast being Comcast). They're screaming "REMAIN CALM! ALL IS WELL!" as the Homecoming parade descends into anarchy around them. What outside factors are you talking about? I seriously doubt there is anyone with an opinion that matters to Netflix that does not have access to the viewership data.

The occasional bits of visual comedy in the first few episodes of Limitless were the only bits of those episodes that I liked. I will say it has one of the biggest tone changes from the previews to the actual show.

Oh Snapple! posted:I don't think there's anything smug about folks being annoyed and resorting to piracy when the legitimate, paid services they use lock them out of the content they want to watch. Netflix Canada is not the service that Netflix US subscribers are paying for. This shouldn't be hard to understand.

CapnAndy posted:Yeah, the production values are through the roof. They're outclassing the movie, let alone NBC's "look we have a stage and we pointed a camera at it" style. The only NBC show so far that this really applied to is The Wiz, which was that way because the staging was designed for a possible Broadway revival.

EL BROMANCE posted:I love that because channels can't show things on time, I've now seen the preview for next weeks' The Americans before I've seen this weeks episode. That is frustrating. Though even the initial broadcasts of FX shows are inexplicably played directly after the preview for that week's episode. There's not even a commercial break. It just goes straight from the preview to the "Previously on" segment.

I can't imagine it takes a very high-power agent to get one of the most recognizable people in the world cast in the small indie films that have made up the majority of Radcliffe's post-HP career.

I don't know why you brought this up considering the context of the scene makes it clear that he's saying "gently caress your civil rights" to the guy he's interrogating, not making a judgment of Amador.

Spatula City posted:aw. Leverage was such a good, low key agreeable show. There's a number of shows where I've idly thought "you know, now would be a good time for the Leverage crew to step in and take down this bastard". If there was any premise that would be perfect for something like that, it's Leverage. Just have the crew hopping across shows and networks, taking down some villain of the week in NCIS, running into Shawn and Gus on Psych, outsmarting Peralta on Brooklyn 99. It would own.
