Ah, finally, a place to talk about Mythic Quest. Nobody's posting about the very latest one, which is more or less a Part 2 to last week's throwback to the past, so I'll just start by saying that I just came in from the rain, my allergies are acting up, and you need to stop cutting onions in front of me. gently caress, I was so uncomfortable for most of this episode but it had such a phenomenally good payoff. This show is ridiculous.EL BROMANCE posted:I read this post just before watching season 1, and it was fun to see Big Head was CW for a brief moment in the first episode when they introduced his character. Is a completely different person. DaveKap fucked around with this message at 08:12 on Jun 12, 2021 |

EL BROMANCE posted:Correct, so I went back. The copy I have on Plex from last year has the shot in your post, the version that’s on Apple+ now has been retconned with a different still - of Big Head.

Interestingly, that original photo was of Murray Abraham with an Oscar: My friend suggests that, outside of this being a cute continuity correction, it could be a case of photo licensing terms. And then his hot take was that it's white washing. I'm gonna stick with cute continuity correction.

This new episode of Mythic Quest is very good. Called the final "twist" pretty easily but lol at the idea that they're just gonna make Second Life.

Oh yeah I forgot to mention: At the start of this episode they have someone putting up the graphic of the female character where... it always has been. "Yeah, that looks great. Awesome work." But... that's always been there. I get the feeling there was a cut scene where he had it taken down at some point? Or am I missing something?

Mythic Quest still fuckin' got it. The end of the latest episode actually made me tear up. Plus we get banger acting like this: https://i.imgur.com/tcQH9qy.mp4 And lovely pearls of wisdom like this: https://i.imgur.com/A5xHY14.mp4 The show honestly deserves way more attention than it gets. I don't know how Apple+ is about cancelling good shows but if this one gets canned, it only deserved it because it was on Apple+. DaveKap fucked around with this message at 10:05 on Nov 22, 2022 |

The biggest problem with MQ is that its highs are really high and its lows are really low. It's sorta been that way since the beginning. I think I'm willing to enjoy it because it's about something I care about and reminds me of some of my old work days without ultimately taking horrible trope routes that Big Bang Theory and Silicon Valley took. It still taps the occasional horrible trope but it's done in service of a message instead of service of something to disparage.

George H.W. oval office posted:The one off flash back episodes for MQ continue to be the best episodes each season. They absolutely nailed the casting for young Poppy. Poppy plays Sarian, "I'M NOT CRYING YOU'RE CRYING."

The highs were real nice for MQ and the lows were snooze-worthy but at least I'm not, like, offended by how bad the writing gets. I've watched enough bad television to know when a show is trying and failing vs just flailing around and MQ at least seems to be trying. No reason to stop watching now but it does ache a bit when the acting is outpacing the writing by a mile. I'm curious to see Charlotte Nicdao in other stuff because she's almost too perfect as Poppy.

Looks like Mythic Quest lost F. Murray Abraham not to White Lotus... but to method acting. https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-mov...-tv-1234714869/
