Elliott's story line is amazing

It absolutely is.

Also this had one of the best one line introductions to a side character I've ever seen.
(not a story spoiler) " We've never formally met, but I've been decorating your house for the past four Christmas seasons."
That sentence in that situation absolutely slayed me.

Was there no thread for Dead To Me ever? It felt like it was all the talk at one point but can’t find one. Curious to see if other people had as many ‘oh gently caress!’ shouts as I did, and how people felt towards the characters.

I vaguely remember one, at least for season 1.
Season 2 definitely had such a moment from me, when those two women were kissing and entering the room and it turns out the cop is the roommate/ex.

Independent Spirit Awards TV noms:


Loving the noms for I May Destroy You. It’s still crazy to me that I was the literal actual only person to vote for it in the TVIV poll when it was by far the most acclaimed show of 2020.

I've seen literally none of those.

what the gently caress is I May Destroy You
I think it's a British tv drama or something like that. Didn't seem appealing to me.

Ok let’s go!

I May Destroy You - BBC/HBO half-hour drama about a young writer who has her drink spiked and is raped. Follows the aftermath of this and her friend group in general, with various themes around consent, social media, and various other parts of modern life. It is extremely smart and powerful and also very funny at times.

Little America - Apple anthology series where each episode tells a different immigrant’s story, inspired by a magazine’s article series. Really lovely stuff.

Small Axe - BBC production of five movies directed by Steve McQueen (Hunger, 12 Years a Slave, Widows) about the Afro-Caribbean community in London between the 60s and 80s. Extremely good poo poo, probably shouldn’t be considered TV but that’s how Amazon have labelled it in the US release so there you go.

A Teacher - Hulu show where Kate Mara is a young teacher who fucks a student. Didn’t watch this one but it seemed to be generally well-reviewed, if considered a little slow.

Unorthodox - Netflix miniseries in Yiddish. I don’t know much about this one but it seems to be about a young Jewish woman in an arranged marriage who runs away. Looks like it was super acclaimed, drat I should watch this probably

Thanks for the rundown. Gotta say, none of that sounds appealing to me.

That tweet is really not that interesting without the mentioned gif. Also I have no clue who this woman is.
Some woman wrote an Office episode and someone made a gif out of a scene from it.

I guessed OP is American due to the pro-Fahrenheit custom title, but I might be wrong!

e: yeah presumed it got nuked since posting. What was it? Something controversial or just silly?

I made some comment in favor of Celsius some time ago and someone got so mad about it that they supported Lowtax by giving me this title. It's such a stupid action that I didn't bother to change it since.

Haven't spent any money on this forum since my registration.

Anyway the context was that someone got very upset that Mindy Kaling is voicing Velma from Scooby-Doo in some upcoming prequel show, and posted a gif of Steve Carrell yelling “NO NO GOD NO” from The Office (when he finds out Toby is coming back), in an episode Kaling herself wrote

Okay, that is actually funny. That tweet made it sound like she was just proud of some random GIF she found.

Yeah, Bennet owns and I am glad she still gets some roles.

i'd rather have an oompa loompa origin story. particularly one where they finally get some justice in the end

It will actually be a story about how the hero burned down their savage village and killed half of them to make the survivors more docile, so they could fit into civil society. It was a tough call to make, but that's the byrden of strong leadership. What I am saying is that he should be basically Leopold II.

I agree. They really got their dysfunctional work-crew-balance down and made a great bottle episode. I love how the HR lady is secretly loving all of this drama.
But the last two scenes were absolutely brutal. Poppy and Ian are really good at hurting each other.

And done. That's the sort of ending you don't really see in western productions. That was very Korean. Whoever suggested this show last year should have been a bit more insistent! You guys should get in on that.

How in the hell did this become one of the best shows airing? What an amazing episode.

I mean, if you look at the writing team in a vacuum, you could almost assume this. it's being helmed by Rob McElhenney, Charlie Day and Megan Ganz, with Ashly Burch as a staff writer (I guess she has the most experience with the video game scene.) And you can clearly tell, that the cast enjoys each others company.

I do wonder, if Charlie deigns to show up on screen at some point.

No one does prequels like Gaston. Disney Plus Beauty and the Beast series with Luke Evans and Josh Gad reprising their roles from live action remake.

Also funny with people talking about Netflix pushing Manifest on them as it was just canceled.

I remember recently how someone was mocking that idea. Will Gaston's mother really be crushed by a giant bookshelf?

Watched the first four episodes of Kevin Can gently caress Himself. That show is weird. Basically, it's about how hot sitcom wives are living in hell and how the universe distorts into an obscene perversion of reality whenever the title character (and the canned audience) is around.
Honestly, this has me hooked. I really want to see how much of that is in the woman's head as a weird sort of coping mechanism for a life which went in a dead-end direction, or if this universe just rolls this way. Also, those sitcom shenanigans where actually, kinda fun. I enjoy the mental backlash between the sort of crime drama and the wacky antics. But yeah, Kevin is absolutely a giant rear end in a top hat and probably purposely mentally abusive, based on the last episode.

I'm in the middle of episode six by now. and it's starting to dawn on me, that Cassie's mental health might not be as great as the show depicts. I'm starting to think she's an alcoholic!
Edit: The rest of this episode sort of supports my suspicion, but I'm reserving my judgements on that.

Finished the show. That was quite a great ride!
Still a bit on the fence about the alcoholism. Was it a subtle implication, or just my imagination going wild? I guess some mysteries are best left unsolved and some interpretations have to be made by the viewer.

Keep in mind, Pattys clobbered her own brother! That's some loyalty to Allison there.
This is also, the first time Neil showed up in single-camera. There's room for some interesting reactions here. Maybe Patty will blackmail him, which makes him shift over more often. Also, he might act slightly different, when the stage light is off.
