My favorite is the radio edit for this Everclear song where the last part is about some guy pulling out a gun think during a drug deal, but it beep so much the song lyrics are almost literally "And he pulled out his ****** ***** *** and was dead".

El Gallinero Gros posted:Pretty much everything I've learned about Jerry post-show has made him out to be kind of a poo poo. Dates teenagers, tries to rehabilitate Michael Richards' rep in the most tone deaf and idiotic way possible, endorses scientology, acts like an rear end during his reddit AMA. I mean, obviously that first thing is the worst but the other stuff's not exactly laudable, either. And don't forget Bee Movie and all the poo poo he did for NBC to promote it.

Mad Doctor Cthulhu posted:Wasn't Will & Grace the show where they had to dial back Will's homosexuality to the point where he couldn't even hold hands or kiss his partner because NBC wanted to boast about having a gay leading character but not one that actually acted like he was gay? And a shame about John Barrowman, the man is a freak and would have made that sitcom a lot more fun than it was. Oh well, guess he'll have to continue being one of the best Doctor Who supporting characters ever. Davros1 posted:That reminds me of DC Comics having a character that they boasted was the first gay character (Extrano), but not that you'd never know, since it was never mentioned in the comics. They should just combine the two and just have Malcolm Merlyn be in DC Comic already. The actual Merlyn was just some generic assassin rival of Green Arrow.

Loved watching the Doctor Who episode "The Long Game" which has a subplot of one of the companions (who is from the year 2012 at the time of the episode aired in 2005) who uses a flipphone that been enhanced to dial at any point in history to their house to call his answering machine to store it.

I'm more surprised it doesn't come on one of the more feel good sub-channels like Cozi, which runs Little House on the Prairie. Which didn't someone eariler in the thread mentioned Little House on the Prairie had a few dark episodes?

SiKboy posted:Swearing and using brand names. That was Mel and Sue when The Great British Bake-Off was still on the BBC, and the BBC has really strict rules about using brand names (As I think do many channels, but the Beeb being publicly funded is very strict about it in general). I presume after a while, with the show being a runaway hit, the producers (hopefully) realised that part of why people liked the show was that it was generally, well... nice. Its on Channel 4 now with different presenters, I dont know if Noel and Sandi do the same thing. My favorite was a teaser with him saying you just killed someone and showing a ambulance. Actual episode a person way undercooked meat and him saying if he served that he would killed someone and throws it away.

Everybody thought that their baseball cards would be Honus Wagners someday while failing to realize that that's insanely valuable because only a couple hundred ever got made like 100 years ago. Now like eight are known to exist. Eight. People were collecting Beanie Babies like mad because of how much they were limited in their runs. These will totally be worth millions some day!!! And history repeats itself with Funko Pops replacing Beanie Babies.

" storylines became popular to do because so many comic series were failing. People just weren't as interested in superhero comics anymore as they'd been done to death. People figured out that very popular characters would never go away. Aside from that comic book superheroes just kept getting continually more powerful which led to the infinity gauntlet showing up. Which...well makes you God, basically. "I just felt like eliminating half of the life in the universe so I did. Lol gently caress you." Yes, and whoever having that gauntlet being God-like in power means that all that life is going to come back by the end of the series when somebody else gets their hand in it.

ToxicSlurpee posted:Funny thing there is I have yet to meet somebody with 800 carefully sorted, stored, and preserved Funko Pops in the attic but I've met people that decorate their cubes with a dozen of them. I think in the case of Funko most people are buying them because they like the characters not because they'll be worth millions some day, totally. For the most part that is true, then you get this. Rhyno posted:Remember how Pops are garbage? Local collector just got turned into CPS for neglecting his kids in favor of his Pop obsession. Turned in by his own kid no less.

Blazing Ownager posted:I mean sure, I've seen lots of TV finales where lots of people die. I've never seen one where they did everything possible to gently caress all of humanity, but 5 stars. Even through it was a kid show, the final episode of Mighty Max ends with all the sidekicks and allies dying to the villain, with the hero entering into a time loop at the end to hopefully get it right the next time. Also the ending of Dinosaur with them getting the ice age caused by the father company.

Wheat Loaf posted:The DCAU stuff had a very distinctive visual identity. I'm not really keen on the pseudo-anime style they have now. It's much less interesting to me. Don't forget the ending where the doctor found out his wife never loved him, so when the thug came back to get more upgrades, it shows him being put to sleep as the doctor looks evilly as the thug goes to sleep.

Tiggum posted:The worst is where the copyright is held by a company that goes out of business and no one was explicitly given control of it so it's impossible to say who legally owns it, but the law says that someone must own it so no one can do anything with it until it's sorted out (which it never will be). That what happened to the videogame No One Lives Forever, which can't be re-release digitally because the license is just in limbo.

business hammocks posted:In early 90s America it aired early weekday mornings and I would see the end of an episode every morning as I got ready for school. I remember there were aliens living in the center of the Earth that wanted to drain the kids' blood? Also it ends on a cliffhanger where the adult hero abandons the kids after they melt the city of gold. Or maybe the French just know how to depress the gently caress out of kids. And didn't it randomly get a Steam game a few years ago?

While I heard Season 4 was good, I am fine with ending on the first episode of that season since I didn't have Showtime (previous seasons on dvd) and the first episode of season 4 was free on I think Netflix or Comcast so I watched that and never bothered to watch it again.

Bingo houstonguy. I mentioned earlier I watched season 1 - 3 on dvd and first episode of season 4 on Netflix, but had no real desire to watch it further. And the spot I ended at was fine, since he now has a kid and wife, no need to ruin it with what you mention and kill her of.

Yeah intros like Batman the Animated Series and Twin Peaks are great and timeless. On the other side of the coin, I loved watching as a kid the Disney Afternoon shows, but I hated the intros for most of them (except Ducktales, that one was great). Really hated the Talespin one the most, even through I loved the show. FCLC probably had one of my favorite outros in a show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bo1kI9q-m-s

Brother Entropy posted:another good candidate for background shows are procedurals like law and order or house. formulaic and repeats exposition so it's easy to tune it out for a bit and then whenever something new is happening there's people yelling and dramatic music to get your attention again ION Television is really good for this since it seems to has all the old procedural shows in their lineup.
