Is it better than the books? I've avoided it because I hated the books so much.

I can't see how anyone would like it if they actively hated the books. It's basically the books in TV form

The books don't have a tonal change, they went for a somewhat more positive ending in the show.

Whether or not that was the right choice idk.

This is absurd revisionism. This woman has stolen countless national and historical landmarks, she is not a hero!!

I remember when The Grinder had a joke so bad and unfunny it made me stop watching the show and then everyone started using that as like the go-to joke to reference the series and acting like it was hilarious

What was the joke???

Orphan Black is probably the most uneven show I've ever watched, but I liked how it ended and I'm glad I watched all of it good and bad

Russian Doll was great; I could have done with a longer ending, because I hate it when a time loop thing ends the moment the loop ends instead of showing us a little bit of what comes next, but all in all not a big problem. Plus, they apparently pitched this as a 3 season thing so there's still a chance I see what happens next? I have no idea where it could go from that point though, unless they follow new characters, but whatever, I'm in for any and all time loop anythings.

Yeah I had this feeling too, but if it really is more seasons that'll be cool. I always wondered where Daybreak would've gone if it had another season...

It's no more arbitrary than Groundhog Day. There it happened to teach a lovely self centered rear end in a top hat to care about others, here it was to teach two differently miserable people that there were other, less self destructive ways they could live their lives.

I feel like I can never quite get a consensus on whether this show is good or not.

I've never watched it but the book was such garbage that I can't bring myself to believe the show could be any good.

I think you're simultaneously putting Star Trek on a pedestal and not giving the Orville enough credit.

Star Trek certainly has a much longer and more impressive pedigree at this point but the Orville has done some good stuff in its 1.5 seasons so far.

It was a very cool spectacle but I don't think it's particularly fair to compare it to stuff from 20+ years ago.

Basically Lowtax is severely in debt due to his medical bills and that raises the question of whether he can afford to keep the forums up and running.

That said he hasn't said anything about shutting them down so I guess it remains to be seen how well his donation drive goes.

If you want to know more he went into a lot of detail here: https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3884184

That makes the clip in the Video zoux posted earlier even better - where she has a big revelation that the taser they'd been talking about for a minute must have been used to tase someone!

It seems relatively obvious that I'd be a good mod of this subforum specifically because I've been the Patient Zero for several extremely good shows - Rectify and Patriot especially - and I don't get into heated and terrible arguments about shows because I'm aware that taste is subjective and there's no such thing as an objectively "wrong" opinion. I've been around a long time and would not just throw probations around willy nilly.

It kinda hurts that not one person has mentioned me for the job. :(

I almost joked that this is what it was but I thought that would be mean

So basically its Jamaican accents based on saying words in all different languages, but then re-interpreted through other further accents to be further incomprehensible.

What a great show

The Good Place shouldn't be on that list! A show ending on its own terms isn't getting cancelled and is a good thing.
