In 2021 I need to figure out some way of watching new shows, instead of just watching various Laws & Orders, Forensic Files, and Supernatural for the 13th time.Open Source Idiom posted:I stopped counting how many shows I watched this year. I watch an embarrassing amount of TV. Mostly older stuff this year though, since there hasn't been a bunch of new content for a while. Is Highlander streaming anywhere?

Azhais posted:The series is on peacock I think Was all excited to start it but Peacock only has season 1 (of 6) available, which is totally lame.

Azhais posted:Hmm, just searching on prime it appears to be on imdb TV, so free with ads. All 6 seasons seem to be there Huh, weird. I did a search earlier and Amazon was telling me it was available on something called CONtv for $4.99/mo extra. If I look at results via Google I still see this, but if I search for it directly through Amazon, I see it available on imdb TV.

GreenNight posted:Even fuckin Walker? I heard it was horrible. It's only had 2 eps so far and I wouldn't say it's horrible but it's not great either. They're rushing out exposition so fast that it feels very forced and the (extremely dumb, especially in ep 1) procedural parts are almost glossed over. The 1min clip of Walker's wife dying that is supposed to set up his whole backstory was hilariously terrible though, yes. I'll probably give it another ep or two before I give up unless it really improves.

Hughmoris posted:A random TV thing I stumbled upon today... Jim Beaver, the guy that plays Ellsworth on Deadwood, is pretty dang active on Quora: https://www.quora.com/profile/Jim-Beaver This is cool, thanks for sharing. He's a fun Twitter follow too and posts a lot about older movies.

The only person that even comes to mind today when I read "hey, its that guy from The Wire" is Isiah Whitlock Jr. and really only because he is still doing the sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeittttttttttttttttttt thing in half his roles some 20 years later.

Do not watch that clip if you've never seen The Guest bc it spoils basically the entire movie. And if you have not seen The Guest, what is wrong with you, go watch it right now

bull3964 posted:Apparently Colbert spouted off what he thinks the Amazon series should be to an Amazon exec and they clammed up and walked away from him. If Amazon does some dumb live reaction show after each ep for their LotR series and does not get Colbert as the host, they have hosed up.

"Fans are clamoring for Clarice" is a promo I just saw at the end of a CBS show. I forgot this even existed-did anyone here watch it and if so how bad is it?

Thanks to this thread I now feel officially Old. It's 8pm, I'm tired and thinking of going to bed early, and I'm laying here watching Columbo for the first time ever. It's kinda enjoyable?

SimonChris posted:Anyone else watching Shadow and Bone on Netflix? I had never heard of it before, but it looks promising so far. A bit fantasy steampunky. Just finished it, pretty good imho. Ben Barnes is really great at being the bad guy. Edit: show is super predictable but I guess that might be a spoiler Sirotan fucked around with this message at 03:38 on Apr 26, 2021 |

Criminal Minds was pretty decent imho up to season 5 or so when they kill off Hotchner's wife. I seen to recall it making a pretty quick decline after that. Also lol at Thomas Gibson torpedoing his career be being a complete piece of poo poo on set.

nate fisher posted:Trailer for the Anthony Bourdain documentary Roadrunner. It seems like this is not a case of the same day on HBO Max as the theater release. Watching the trailer reminds me how much I miss watching his show. gently caress, gonna need a couple boxes of tissues next to me when I watch this.

Aardvark! posted:was that the season where Sam had that annoying rear end girlfriend subplot? Because that's when I threw in the towel That was the season immediately afterwards (season 8) and agreed that Amelia loving sucks and so does that entire stupid storyline. Yeah sure Sam is not gonna search for Dean because he hit a dog with his car (and the dog is fine). ![]() Don't stop watching after season 5, season 6 and 7 and great and imho so are the Leviathans if only for all the dick jokes they get to make.

Jack B Nimble posted:Wait, in Ep1 when the older brother has a box of heavy metal cassettes, did the show originally license Metallica and stuff? Yeah, all the original music in season 1 is stripped out on all the streaming services due to licensing shenanigans. None of the replacement music is bad it's just incredibly generic and there are a whole bunch of music cues you miss if you watch it on Netflix the first time through.

X-O posted:The exclusion of "Hey Man, Nice Shot" from the skinwalker episode should count as a war crime. Jack B Nimble posted:Ffffff. Am I really gonna buy DVDs in 2021? Don't Fear The Reaper plays when they first introduce reapers so it's that kind of slightly on-the-nose stuff but yeah you also miss the first time they play Carry On Wayward Son, Highway To Hell, Back in Black, a whole bunch of Bad Company, Metallica, etc. If you're a fan of 70's/80's classic rock then I would try and rent the first season from the library or something, the music adds a lot to it.

X-O posted:But by far my all time favorite is "Renegade" in season two. I hope that one's on streaming because if it's not that's even worse than a war crime. It is. Only season 1 has the stupid replacement music. Would agree that is the best music cue in the entire show.

Gonz posted:On the Blacklist, one of Red’s enemies shot Elizabeth Keen through the loving heart before she could find out who Red is, and immediately prior to the central conceit of the show about to be revealed to her. I stopped watching Blacklist a couple seasons back but every now and then think about picking it back up, so I was not going to read this spoiler until I saw Medullah's post and lol. Just lol.

muscles like this! posted:Lol, the CW couldn't even go a year. Supernatural prequel series in the works with Jensen Ackles set to produce and provide narration. My initial reaction to this is...meh. John and Mary are two of the least interesting characters and they've been pretty well explored already? But sure I'll tune in.

David Lynch's Dune is probably my favorite movie of all time, but this trailer has me hype. Just hope it makes a lot of money so that they actually make the second part. :/

This is some absolute bullshit: https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1425504216165097476 Generic White Guy sexual harasser host and anti-vax rape apologist as the emcee. Don't think I'll be watching Jeopardy anymore.

STAC Goat posted:I guess in fairness while Bialik IS anti-vax she says her family has all gotten the Covid vax. Which is a bizarre rear end position to hold. Yeah I don't think she deserves any kudos here when she has spent close to a decade spewing her "there are just too many vaccines" stance (including writing a book about it) just because she and her kids got the COVID vax. She's shilling snake oil brain pills in prime time commercial space right now. I have never watched BBT and am only aware of her prior to this announcement due to her lovely anti-science views. Thanks to the Jeopardy thread I now also know she's got plenty of other lovely non-vaccine related opinions too!

Is anyone else watching Lego Masters? It kind of owns? I think mostly because of Will Arnett (who I honestly wasn't a big fan of before this), and the fact that they make fun of the standard reality competition show format on the show. anyway I'm one of those people that calls them legos, and I recommend it
