I think the lesson to be learned here is to probably avoid programs aimed entirely at teenagers unless you happen to be a teenager.Quote:

I do like sci-fi. I watched Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis. Very good shows. Both ended too soon, more so Atlantis. I watched all the Star Trek shows (except Enterprise). I guess the target audience these days is younger and dumber.
Glad to see "Preacher" season 3 is coming soon. Weird show, but entertaining.
Was there an end to Lost?... must of missed it as I was having a ten year dream*
*just a shite end. keep pressing the button was a better outcome
Me and t'misses have been going through The Sopranos, it's an absolute treat. I think I only watched them all the once as they were broadcast so some of the stuff that happens is actually surprising. I can remember the way it ended though :dabs:
The Sopranos, The Wire and The Shield - that's my trifecta of murcin drama. Breaking Bad was good but there will never come a day where I could sit through it all a third time.
Crossing is worth a punt for current watching, Extinct is worth putting in the effort in as well but my other got bored after 3 eps..... I finished watching alone whilst she was away watching Holby/Casualty or some other generic crap.
Alone season something starts tonight. It's pretty interesting.
1. The fuck you don't.
2. Then don't complain about there not being anything good on.
I didn't ask you to reaffirm my first point.
Westworld 1 is probably the best TV show I have ever seen. Entertaining while stimulating. Very much a trademark of the Nolan brothers. Great acting all around, with a special mention for Anthony Hopkins and that secsy black girl. For just being hawt.
Thinking about going for 2 whilst recovering from fusion in September, perhaps The Handmaid's Tale as well (read the book, absolutely epic).
Have seen The Man in the High Castle having only read the start of the book, and thought Season 1 was better than 2. Apparently 3 is in the works...
Lastly, there was a show on about Genghis Khan, Marco Polo, which was good fun (1 and 2).
Any show, essentially, which doesn't try to be politically correct is already better than most IMO.
You definitely have class ShinShin and I agree with most, but what of GoT? (Fantasy)Quote:

No original ideas (that are good anyway) and lack of talented writers. Plus, reality TV is much cheaper to make and just as profitable.Quote:

Still on a scale doesn't bother me anywhere near as much as remaking Papillon as no one can touch Steve McQueen and Dustin Hoffman so what's the point?
What the feck is next, Butch Cassidy with Zac Effron and John Cena?
This is the first I've heard of this. I'm outraged. One of my absolute favorites of all time. I hope it brings plague and destruction upon all who dare touch the project.Quote:

Unfortunately most popular movies get remade.
Note to Mulder. State of Decay 2 sucketh big time.
A great binge watch for a sleepy Father's Day and you could use Season 1 as a litmus test for future viewing. ;)Quote:

It's shit m8. They had like 4 years and a blank cheque from Microsoft and instead of a sequal they basically remade the first one badly with somehow worse graphics. Massive disappointment :dabs:Quote:

I guess if Microsoft threw money at it then I'm left to assume they hired a bunch of students to make it and used the rest of the money on cocaine and loose women.
What's wrong with that?Quote:

No, it's a version created by and for pretentious people who lack any actually soul and who undoubtedly were subjected to a lot of bullying in High School.Quote:

But these were probably deliberately trying to be bad, so I don't know.
I miss good music. :(

Went and had my millionth filling this morning before work, £100 for a ceramic! It was a proper deep one too, took her half an hour it really hurts your jaw holding your mouth open that long, another reason I can't ever be ghey. That and I love my dentist, a nice youngish Spanish lady who rubs her hawt Spanish knockers on my face as she works :mushy:
In other super interesting news I've got a nice little work from home day tomorrow, except instead of doing IT stuffs I'll actually be building furnature whilst listening to podcasts and vaping my tits off, checking my emails every few hours to see if anyone's realised i'm not doing anything :sly:
This was floated a while back and everyone blow it off as a joke.
Jesus Fucking Christ. Reminds me a tad too much of that episode of the Twilight Zone with Billy Mumy.

Also the militarization has been against international law since 1967, not that any of these evil fuckers actually care about laws.
Well, the American people voted him in didn't they...Quote:

That is the truest evil.
Btw you are entirely right in saying that you can't justify your actions by saying someone else is guilty of it as well. If you could then all criminals would immediately walk free as they aren't unique in any of their crimes.
I totally agree with both your thoughts... it's a total shame you don't watch and or get Stephen Colbert's Late Show... a nightly chuckle I get listening to him... setting my mood for the day ahead. ;)
(HBO's "Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" achieves the same eye opening experience... though weekly and is available in this forums favorite format for ROKU / PC viewing.) :alien:
I watch both Colbert's and Seth Myers monologues. I think someone went and invented something called the internet.
You'd probably be less jealous if Canadia had an Air Force. :tease:Quote:
