anyone got a link for Silicon Valley season 6 discussion thread? I know ppl dropped off on it, but ppl here must have been talking about. I thought it ended well! And very, very strangely! They really hewed to the central thesis of the show I guess, these fuckers aint never gonna be too successful.

I always found him to be manipulative, narcissistic and extremely annoying despite this apparently being the unpopular opinion amongst SFU fans. I wish he died during the end of Season 2, maybe then I'd have actually cared for him but I just knew the writers didn't have the balls to do it considering how important he seemed to the show. he was nice to his sister.

I watched Sopranos fairly recently for the first time a couple years ago. Atlanta isn't as good. Namely because it doesn't have season long arcs per se. It's like a TV show made out of the Sopranos Pine Barren episode. Pretty cool, but fairly disconnected. Sopranos makes you ruminate about toxic masculinity, toxic families, being toxic, etc. Atlanta doesn't have those aims I think (maybe I need to rewatch the eps).

sticklefifer posted:I always felt like 3 had too much going on. They try to pack in far too many subplots at once and only partially succeed. One less villain or a more focused central plot would've done wonders for it, and randomly happening upon a kid with the perfect Iron Man Recovery Garage in the middle of nowhere is a bit too coincidental. IM3 was crippled by Perlmutter's incredibly late decision to not have the female interest be the baddie. The first 2 acts set up her as such, then she dies with a whimper, inexplicably

Gaunab posted:My roommate is watching Survivor and I wish I could get into it but it just doesn't click with me. I think it's all the strategizing and alliances; it's ridiculous and stupid and I should be all over it but it just comes off as boring high school drama. Combine that with the "survivalist" setting and it makes the show seem more manufactured. i watched clips of the episode with the immensely short guy and the woman from the Phillippines and please tell me there is other as good content in there, I couldn't look away

space marine todd posted:Is this where I can ask for recommendations? My partner and I really enjoy two kinds of shows: weird/mystery box shows (Lost, X-Files, and Twin Peaks) and shows full of beautiful cinematography/music/Big Social Themes (My Brilliant Friend, The Young Pope, and High Maintenance). Try Undone. e: also Upload e2: also Undone might be the best show i've ever seen high, so there's that advice as well.

You're gonna like Undone then probably. I watvhed it with my gf and its a great compromise btw us bc it didnt have any gruesomeness. Just spaced out weirdness. Its like Waking Life, the TV show. So underrated

Just checked out a clip of Taskmaster. Looks like a Korean game show with the high level TV production and weird asks of its guests. With a significant less amount of physical damage to the participants. you can't do that poo poo with American celebrities.

Ugly In The Morning posted:There’s a fair bit of it but there’s just so much going on I can’t really call it the one joke. The backgrounds alone in the first episode are so loaded with jokes I’m gonna have to rewatch it soon to catch them all. The time travel letters episode was great too, I liked the sci fi hijinks that weren’t just “Rick has an “I win” button at all times”. really captures the madcap and oveloaded joke structure of early Simpsons. S2 was a loving joy, and only negative was that it was only 8 episodes. e: "my gangster story keeps on getting interrupted by wolves" Shageletic fucked around with this message at 14:43 on Mar 29, 2021 |

The Solar Opposites are going to jail! Anyeay Invincible got better, esp tge animation. Still think the writing and thin characterization makes it a show I can't recommend but I def have a soft spot for a different take on superheroics. Focusing on a young hero learning the ropes def helps, wsp with dad Superman there, whoch is unusual for the genre. But lol at where that show ended its first season. Talk about unsatisfying finale.

Mu Zeta posted:I think the last couple seasons hold up better than the Sorkin years. Though it's just as much a fantasy since you have a Democratic President reaching across the aisle to appoint a Republican Secretary of State. Also the Democrat is from Texas and Republican is from California. Someone tabulated Bartlett's accomplishments and it was mostly cutting Social Security and not going to War.

Doom2020! posted:For once it really is not you and it really was a "better" age. There are tons of articles about how political business has changed in the past couple of decades. Things were bad and messed up but there was this air of civility and half the stuff that certain parties do nowadays would get them laughed out of office. There are periods in the past where some people said insane things but it was never the general party stance. If you want depressing lols check out the Trump thread in GBS. We live in interesting times. Gingrinch's Contract with America and Rush Limbaugh controlling the national conversation, while any real leftist positions were smothered by third way corportate giveaways. Black people were being dragged behind trucks and shot without reprecussions (i mean, some things didn't change). We had the head of the republican senate say that Storm thurmond should have been president, and republican candidates say that they only believe in "legitimate rape". The Bush administration wanted to bring christianity to the middle east and 21 year old graduates of evangelical universities ran national and international policy. Lol, better age. At least now there's a viable and visible opposition. The protests against the Iraq War were the biggest on record, and it didn't blip on the national discourse. Today, it would have been alot bigger.

I watched a few episodes of it on TVLand in the sixth grade, and I don't remember much of it.
