If you're saying what I think you're saying, I'm surprised the tiger's eyes aren't much wider and his teeth aren't clenched.That is a concerning poster to me...the letters BBC and the look on that chimps face...

Really enjoyed Dark Tourist on Netflix. Some episodes were a better than others and at times Farrier came off as kinda judgemental, but in general thought it provided a good look into some crazy people and places in the world, along with terrible vacation ideas.

Just finished Season 6 of Orange is the New Black...
*spoilers*
Just finished this last night and agree with everything you said. The writers lost this show a long time ago. Classic Jenji Kohan: fun premise with good (sometimes great) first few seasons that completely falls apart once it hits season 3. OITB has been treading water for a while now and it needs to recapture its identity or find a new one. Otherwise, put it out of its misery.

All they needed was a forensic examiner to figure out what happened to the dead guard, and boom. Series over.

Yeah, season 3 was horrific. Then it rebounds a bit...and then season 6 was just...well, we all know...

Said it before, but Ali is one of my absolute favorite actors. Can't wait. And I didn't even watch S2.

That's a good thing. S2 is trash and apparently the creator is making S3 more like the first season.Said it before, but Ali is one of my absolute favorite actors. Can't wait. And I didn't even watch S2.

I'll give S3 a chance... Shouldn't be that hard to improve over S2... What a waste of time that was.
Colossal TV Show thread
It had some ideas, but was such a mess. I guess that's what happens when the 1st is a success and they want you to crank out another. Hopefully time off will make this successful. Seems like they were making the 2nd season up as they were filmingI'll give S3 a chance... Shouldn't be that hard to improve over S2... What a waste of time that was.

I'm trying to keep my expectations in check, but that looks pretty damn good. I'm excited.

Storybots is a great show man. The last one I watched was one explaining how the body fights off viruses. It did it in the style of the cold viruses attacking the white blood cells behind a wall (Helms Deep), and then a macrophage appears at the top of the hill a la Gandalf
It is a kid's show but highly recommend for all of yinz parents. A ton of celebrity cameos too... The last one also had Ed Norton.

Remember when Weeds left Majestic and the whole show went to ****? The riot is OITNB's leaving Majestic.

Been watching It's Always Sunny again. The Jihad Tape in season 2 is one of my favorite scenes.

Not that it's much of a surprise, but they announced this week that the upcoming season of Mr Robot would be the final season.
Based on how they ended the last one, I don't think you can really go further than another season.

I completely lost touch with it near the beginning of season 2. Just fell off.

Yellowstone was good. Sometimes over the top for drama sake, but I will watch season 2

After watching more episodes, my opinion has worsened. In an episode with Bill Maher, Bill Maher basically called out Seinfeld for being a jerk. I think that it takes a lot for me to take Bill Maher's side in that respect.I"m about half-way through Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, and I have found that my preconceptions about Jerry Seinfeld have been confirmed - he's very much pretentious and mean-spirited towards and about those that aren't like him. In his mind, there is nothing more noble than being a comedian. I find his guests enjoyable, but the show would be just as entertaining without him.
He strikes me as the friend that is fun to be around so long as he's your friend. You rag on a few eccentric people when you're together, probably unnecessarily, but he could just a easily rag on you - and not in a "joking" way. It would not be unexpected for him to make a disparaging comment about a homeless person that he passed on the street.
I'm just not a fan, and now I know why.
Then, a few episodes after, he gives airtime to Colleen Ballinger, aka "Miranda Sings", who is a YouTube "star" that shouldn't be given the time of day. While I don't fully enjoy every episode of Comedians, I had to force this one down. I don't think for a second that he took this seriously, but it was still unnerving. Absolutely terrible with zero redeeming qualities (the episode, not the show as a whole).
I just skipped the last half of the show to find out that his next guest is Larry David. What a consistent show.

Watched the first 3 episodes, it's good. It takes itself very seriously and sometimes that's not great, but it seems to be getting better as it goes.Curious on the reception. Haven’t started yetJack Ryan?
