Sanschel posted:So the credited actor for the Demon is Quinton Boisclair, a man with no photos who has never done any other work except this show, and the only solid indication of being a real person is that his name is in the credits. Assuming that's just an alias, I'm not sure exactly who they'd be covering for but it smells like the kind of thing you'd do to avoid spoiling a big twist. There is a Quinton Boisclair on Facebook but it definitely doesn't look like the same guy.

Yellow eyed man is too silly looking to be that scary, especially with his goofy laugh that accompanies him. The fingers coming around the wall were a nice touch though.

Do you guys think there's any particular meaning to this show's fondness for embedding people in walls/floors or does Hawley just think it looks cool/disturbing?

thrakkorzog posted:Give Aubrey Plaza all the awards. She managed to take a B-/C+ villain like The Shadow King into an actual scary villain, when he was just kind of a filler villain for X-Men comics. I'm scaroused after watching her dance number. She's up there with Jessica Jone's Purple Man for scary villains. This show made Aubrey Plaza grinding on you into something to be terrified of, which is pretty impressive.

YA BOY ETHAN COUCH posted:Is this show a limited mini series with start and end or is it going to continue on? I want to know if we'll get closure or if they'll draw out his struggles for multiple seasons. Was hoping we'd see him actually able to wield his powers knowledgeably at some point but after 6 episodes it looks like he's still not close It got a second season the other day.

This show is pretty drat discomforting. Not Hannibal levels of it (what is?), but it's not exactly a romp.

anothergod posted:Is this a thing that happens after every episode? I don't think so. Noah Hawley made a point of telling people to wait through the credits on this one. It's not uncommon for TV shows to have a stinger in a season finale--Mr. Robot and The Walking Dead come to mind.

Chadzok posted:Oh and can I just say that the opening with the cooked guy and his gay husband/adopted kid was one of the most awesome things in the whole series. Felt like a nod to the Austin Powers "henchman's family" scenes. It fleshed out that character really well and set up his husband as an antagonist next season.

WillyTheNewGuy posted:Ok so to everyone who seems to think David is now 100% sane: David feels better because before he was schizophrenic AND he had a psychic parasite that was pushing him further into madness, and now he's just schizophrenic. I guarantee an immediate season 2 plot line will be "I thought I was better, but Im starting to think Im not." Isn't hearing other people's voices/thoughts part of his superpower?

DaveKap posted:Stop me if this conversation happened already but what year do you think this show takes place in? Every time I ask or search, the answer is either "it's supposed to be ambiguous," "it doesn't matter, we're just seeing it through David's crazy eyes," or "the 80s." Yet David's sister asks if she can e-mail her husband, which places it in the late 90s at a minimum. What do you folks think? The same year Archer is set in

FactsAreUseless posted:She borrows her mother's body, and it accidentally switches back partway through. So it's complicated. I was confused by that story: do they switch bodies in the middle of it or switch minds back to the right body? I thought it was the latter but other responses suggest the former.

I also weirdly wanted Jessica Jones to have some more procedural elements even though I hate procedurals. It would’ve worked better to pad out Marvel’s unnecessarily long seasons than stretching the Kilgrave arc did.

hope and vaseline posted:Yeah Pratt's really the only one who's career exploded, and poor Asiz could have broken into comic auteurism if he wasn't a creep with the ladies. Aziz did break into comic auteurism and the creep thing was, what, a month ago? Considering how many people were defending him (and compared to some of the more extreme cases highlighted by the #MeToo movement) he’ll probably be fine. By the standards of people who mostly do standup he was a superstar after Parks and Rec.

FactsAreUseless posted:Poehler was already a widely-recognized actress, Rashida Jones now mostly directs and writes - she was attached to Toy Story 4 before leaving over differences with Pixar, Nick Offerman has built a recognizable brand out of Ron Swanson, Adam Scott at least gets more TV roles than he did prior to the show, Rob Lowe was already famous and continues to get work, Aubrey Plaza went from a bit player to a well-known actress, Aziz Ansari did fine but whoops. The only main characters who didn't get a big boost from this were Retta, who deserves to be a lot more famous, and Jim O'Heir, who at least got a movie role out of it. Didn’t 30 Rock and Community have atrocious ratings? The better comparison is probably the Office, though I think the P&R cast do better than them too.
