Ugly In The Morning posted:I thought it was mostly solved, death by misadventure during a manic episode My understanding is the show is not really about that case. They're using it as the entry point to talk about the Cecil and it's history. Amongst other things it has housed two famous serial killers, Richard Ramirez being one, and early on it was known as "The Suicide" for the number of people who killed themselves there.

Timby posted:New York, if you really want to get technical, since Chicago Fire and PD had crossovers with SVU first, I think as far back as Fire's second and PD's first seasons. I was thinking more about how Chicago Fire got a spinoff before it was a big hit, and then they did the same with FBI.

Chairman Capone posted:Too bad it doesn't star Erinn Hayes. Didn't she say that she auditioned for it? Don't think so. She said she would be interested, but that she understood why they probably wouldn't want to do that.

Slamhound posted:Sure, but given production timing you need to give a buffer of at least a year. Lost was 2004, Supernatural was 2005, neither hit their popularity until they had aired for at least half a season. In Lost's case that is clearly untrue. The pilot was huge and the show got massive ratings and press right from the start.

muscles like this! posted:HBO Max has announced they're doing a comedy series inspired by the dissolution of the BA Test Kitchen. Ryan Walker-Hartshorn, who was Bon Appetit EiC Adam Rappaport's assistant at the time (and the only black woman on staff) is helping create the show which sounds like it isn't going to be directly about what happened at BA but more telling stories in a similar vein. I mean, her story was pretty much the least interesting of the whole thing. It basically amounted to him being a slightly dickish boss. There was certainly nothing there that would get him into the top 100 on the Hollywood's Worst Bosses list.

Ugly In The Morning posted:The Witcher did it in a super weird way because there was no indication that things were being done out of order. The out-of-order shenanigans added nothing to the show and had me completely baffled until I read about it, but that was after I gave up on it anyway. By the time I finished the show I had seen people complaining about the "super complicated" timeline shenanigans (just the headlines, not the details) and I assumed there was going to be some huge timey wimey mindfuck twist in the tail, but no; it was just the blatantly obvious stuff that anyone paying even partial attention should have caught by episode two.

Cactus posted:Sure, if you're paying super close attention and/or are familiar with the source material you can pick up what's happening but come on, the obvious reality is that very few casual Netflix viewers fall into that category. If people can't work it out they're either not paying attention at all, in which case they have no right to complain, or they're morons. I had never read the books or played the games. I'm not someone who pays super close attention when watching shows and my memory's poo poo, but I got it in episode 1. There were huge loving hints in the first three episodes, but it's not necessary for anybody to know before episode four, when it's spelled out in huge letters so even the dumbest viewer should get it.

Open Source Idiom posted:Eventually. Season 3 is not strong. First season and half of season two are absolute top tier TV. Rest of season two and all of season three are bad, then the rest is good, but more in a 24 way than a serious drama.

Hughmoris posted:Has anyone watched Mary Kills People? I vaguely remember a trailer for the series but never heard anything about the show. Any good? It's... OK? It really suffers from the Weeds problem of needing the main character to consistently make the dumbest possible choices to keep the drama going.

GreenNight posted:I feel like I've seen that plot a dozen times. In Bakersfield PD back in the 90's Giancarlo Esposito was a D.C cop who, when he and his wife discover their fertility doctor fathered their son (and many others), moves to Bakersfield as it's basically as far away as they can get.

EL BROMANCE posted:Ah, looking forward to that as I'm wondering if the lack of audience is connected to my slight waning enthusiasm for the show. Might I recommend Taskmaster New Zealand season 2 that recently ended? I thought it was great and I've seen a lot of people rate it as one of the top 3 TM seasons ever.

Escobarbarian posted:lol the live-action Bebop, Wheel of Time, and the first three eps of The Great s2 all drop on the same day (the 19th). Do these companies not want me to sleep? TVDB says it's the first three episodes of Wheel of Time and all of The Great? Also Hellbound, from the director of Train To Busan drops the same day...

howe_sam posted:Yeah, but that's a Barsanti review and he's an awful critic. Sepinwall was much more positive (but then again he's also never seen the original) One thing that has been blatantly obvious from the moment this was announced was that the opinion of anyone who likes the anime should be ignored at all times.
