Colossal TV Show thread

The Queen definitely got sucked off.

[blackjack68]

Probably easy for me to do since I can do it directly on my router, but I'm not doing that.

But of course you aren’t.

House final season was the worst. The 2 new girls were horrible and then they tried to make the ending profound but it came off lame. A shame.


Almost 2 full seasons into the orville. It scratches the next gen itch but it's pretty bad. Some terrible acting from a lot of the cast and i haven't minded the hot button premises but some of the decisions the crew makes are just stupid. I'll watch it all though

Al Bundy and Fred Sanford are probably the hardest to replace, IMO.

[dodint]

I mean, they replaced Phil's wife. He might as well go.

[nocera]

Does this mean re-cast? Tim Taylor was created by/fort Tim Allen so I guess he couldn't really be replaced. Everybody else was just cast. Also it bothers me that they got Fred Sanford right but the show is "Standford and Son."

[dodint]

You don't think Andy Taylor on the Andy Griffith Show was a star vehicle?

It's even the same last name as Tim.

[nocera]

That's true. Andy Griffith was created for Andy Taylor.

[dodint]

I assumed it was created to give the maximum amount of acting career to Ron Howard before his hair ran away.

[NAN]

This is tough. But I'd say Tim Taylor and Al Bundy.

[NAN]

I would have thrown Archie Bunker in over Danny Tanner in that group.

Despite not really liking Letterkenny and only having a wiki'd background on the character, I thought Shoresy was really good. Parts got a bit too "Letterkenny", but I've already given the show a second viewing as background noise. Six quick episodes and very deserving of a second season.

I agree, the only part that dragged was where they had his brother and sisters in there.

Which I completely skipped on rewatch.

[Nuge]

I watched Shoresy first and really enjoyed it. Then I gave Letterkenny a shot and couldn't stay with it. Some mild amusement but kind of a slog to get through.

the bear

overall i enjoyed the show and i always wanted to watch another episode which is a win

i do have some 'beef' (get it?) with some things

- whats the point with the money in the tomato sauce? i hope we learn more about this in s2 but why wouldnt mikey just pay his vendors off with this rather than going the other route?

- the donuts - wtf. and then carmine didnt even say anything to him that it was great. so bizarre

- health inspection - i think they meant to make this about richie screwing everything up but they could have went other ways and it was like it never happened after that episode

excited for s2

Just finished the show saturday, haven't felt this invested in the characters from a show in a very long time.

My assumption was that he was stashing cash away like that to get Carmine money to open a real restaurant, basically bankrupt the sandwich shop and embezzle that cash out of the store, thus stiffing everyone else and hiding the cash.

Remains to be seen how well that will go, but I expect drama

So Dr Cox AND Dr Kelso were from Pittsburgh

[LeopardLetang]

So good

[robbiestoupe]

So Dr Cox AND Dr Kelso were from Pittsburgh

Somehow I missed this. Just started S8 yesterday. Really starting to lose steam, but still good TV

[DigitalGypsy66]

Is that a motion capture rig? Like to capture images to make a Coach Lasso in FIFA?

It's right in that good enough to enjoy but easy to turn off range that i look for

The Pittsburgh thing were both in S1. Kelso talks of his father moving them to Monroeville to care for steel workers and Cox is trying to date a surgical intern and she asks where he's from he says Pittsburgh

There was a leak a couple weeks ago that showed AFC Richmond as a selectable team in FIFA 23 but nothing was ever confirmed or denied.

[nocera]

We're now at 8 cast members who have left SNL since last season including Aidy Bryant, Pete Davidson, Kate McKinnon, Alex Moffat, Kyle Mooney, Melissa Villasenor, Aristotle Athari, and now Chris Redd. That's the highest cast turnover since 1995. That's a lot of talent out the door. Transition years are always interesting.

[meecrofilm]

Well the cast definitely needed trimming. Hopefully for their sake some of the new members are good writers.

New Ken Burns documentary started Sunday, runs through tonight (I think, it's a three parter): The U.S. and the Holocaust. Halfway through the first episode, and it's pretty good. Didn't know Hitler picked up a lot of his ideas from the U.S. earlier attempts at controlling immigration (Native Americans, Eugenics). Henry Ford published a weekly newspaper that featured an anti-Semitic column that had the second highest circulation in the country at the time (Dearborn Spectator).
