What other clichés will you explore together?

I am too! It's ridiculous yet ... super entertaining if you're into interpersonal relationships?
I'll probably quit after Queen Sandra Oh leaves bc Cristina Yang is a treasure.

Also I fucking loved Killing Eve!

Oh I get why you like it, just not my kinda thing.

Yeah I keep seeing Killing Eve as a "you may like" on the iPlayer (BBC's online distribution platform) and I've been meaning to check it out. I thought I recognized the actress from somewhere

I've watched true detective 1, 2 and 3 and minhunter 2, I'm such a detective now

toase · 08-19-2019, 03:20 AM

someone please get me a job
anything

smashingjj · 08-19-2019, 05:50 AM

I'm watching the mind hunter

how are true detective seasons 2 and 3?

MplsTaper · 08-19-2019, 09:28 AM

Wasn't able to get into True Detective 2 but really liked seasons 1 and 3.

toase and you, what do you think so far? I'm on season 1, probably most of the way through, and I still haven't really made up my mind. I think it's such a fascinating premise/time period that I want to stick with it, but it hasn't really grabbed me in a compelling way.

yo soy el mejor · 08-19-2019, 10:38 AM

i tried watching that show, but it's too quiet. everyone mumbles when they do talk.

Same. Just doesn't really do it for me

toase · 08-19-2019, 01:38 PM

I loved mindhunter season 1. The interviews with the serial killers, the way they try to build a method, it was all very interesting. Season 2 has less of that and adds a more political view of how that department came to be what it is. I think I liked unabomber more than season 2.

True detective season 2 is messy. The first few episodes are very confusing, but it gets better later on. Season 3 is good, but, I don't know, I think it could be better but they decided to make it safe after the season 2 fiasco.

toase · 08-19-2019, 01:38 PM

Will watch The Wire now

smashingjj · 08-19-2019, 03:52 PM

never seen it? maybe my favourite series ever. love it.

send my love to Omar <3

killtrocity · 08-19-2019, 05:09 PM

I am not a fan of anime in general, but I just finished watching Death Note and was very impressed with the whole thing

just finished Shameless, very inconsistent, but there is some good stuff there, mainly seasons 1, 2, and 4 and any of the plotlines with Ian and Mickey

watching Mad Men now. I tend to not watch stuff until the jury reaches a verdict on whether or not it's worth my time. Otherwise you get stuck watching season 5 of Shameless or GoT post season 6

Omar man... His death was so shocking... I think it was the first time a TV show made hate a kid character so much.

People who recommended me the show failed to mention how funny The Wire is sometimes. I was expecting something like Cidade de Deus, because people were like "very realistic" and shit, but it's very 90s cop show, but as realistic as it can get.

I love the fact that that everyone acknowledges that McNulty is an asshole, every show should do that. If you write and asshole character, have other characters calling them an asshole every time you can, it makes more tolerable to watch.

ilikeplanets · 08-26-2019, 03:47 PM

Got two or three more episodes left of Orange is the New Black. It's been a roller coaster and I am curious to see how they end it.

reprise85 · 08-30-2019, 12:24 AM

i'm about halfway through the last season of orange is the new black. it has its problems but in general i like how it's going. feels very final season.

i never got into mindhunter, but i only watched a couple episodes. i'm very much a true crime person but it just didn't do it for me. i might try again

toase · 09-03-2019, 01:37 AM

So I'm halfway through Twin Peaks and it's not what I was expecting at all...
It's just like telenovela, not that that's a bad thing, but, I don't know, I was expecting more David Lynch...

I really wished I was loving this series, bummer

i wish i was bill

reprise85 · 09-04-2019, 01:42 AM

I finished orange is the new black. props for giving proper "endings" to people's story arcs, and in general the season was solid, but the last episode kind of lost me.

ilikeplanets · 09-04-2019, 01:59 AM

my favorite character died

the ending was bittersweet but they had a lot of work to do, wrapping up SO many story arcs. alex and piper were predictable as always.

i'm watching Workin' Moms. it's impossible to suspend my disbelief enough to relate to the characters, but it's something silly to watch in the evening after the house quiets down.

ella · 09-04-2019, 03:31 PM

I’ve been watching Workin’ Moms too but haven’t started the new season yet... some of the stuff I relate to but it’s a little exaggerated, like all the crazy random sex... like Frankie just screwing random women, etc. I’m like what? Life is not like that. At least mine isn’t.

toase · 09-13-2019, 01:21 AM

so now I'm watching The X-files and it's fun, I don't have to pay much attention to the show to know what is going on... TV at its finest!

topleybird · 09-13-2019, 10:55 AM

I'm about midway through this new Dark Crystal series and I think I'm just not entirely in the mood

I loved the movie as a kid, this seems like a solid continuation of it, and it's cool as hell that they're still doing this primarily with puppets—even the CGI looks like something being puppeteered—but I'm just not connecting

I was gonna say I'm not the target audience, but some of the violence here is hardcore and I think they're primarily going for adult nostalgic folk like me rather than young kids, especially with casting like Simon Pegg and Mark Hamill
