The TV Thread redux

Seasmoke actually bonded with Laenor Velaryon according to the wiki on known dragons & riders. Also, don’t forget that Laenor is half Targ (her mom is Rhaenys, the Queen Who Never Was.

Green screen (Viserys’ rotten fingers) editing didn’t quite work…

It’s not complicated. But it was quite good. Mind you I am not a fan of the comic, but it was close to that and I liked it still. Not my favorite series of 2022, but amongst the better one (The Foundation is my favorite).

I thought Sandman was too stylised, I expected grittier with Neil Gaiman involved.
Some interesting pieces but the main character was wooden and lacked personality.
I was dissapointed with it tbh.

Musk ‘Almost every male character so far is a coward, a jerk or both," the Tesla CEO tweeted. “Only Galadriel is brave, smart and nice.”

I think he is way off on this comment.

Neil Gaiman was, for some reason, asked about Musk’s comments on the show.

He said that Musk didn’t consult him on how to fail to buy twitter, and he won’t be going to Musk for opinions on culture or media.

Of course he did. Did anyone not expect him to pile on the current white male grievance issue of the day? Especially if it gave him the opportunity to have a dig at Bezos? It’s such a dumb take, but that’s never stopped musk

I don’t mind the guy for the most part, and absolutely yes, anything to have a dig at Bezos no matter how stupid. The first thing I though of when I read that was the elf that was interested in the woman, and Elrond were the complete opposite of what he was saying.

End of an era tonight. Finally watched the last 3 episodes of Kim’s Convenience after binge watching the opening 10 episodes of the show’s final season last night. :pensive:

It’s too much to binge Kim’s Convenience (or Corner Gas). It’s one of those shows that you should savour with 2 episodes max per serving.

I also felt this way about Community

Still remember Mr Kim not being able to say “homophobic” properly :rofl:

Watching episode 3, I still don’t understand the anger of some towards this adaptation. ROP.

I started Watching the Resort on Peacock about a couple on holiday in mexico both refusing to admit how strained their marriage is who then fall into investigating the unexplained disappearance of some tourists there 15 years before. It’s got Chidi from the Good Place and the mum from HIMYM. I’d watch him in anything and he’s fucking great in this. If she is asked to do anything other than smile she overacts and chews up the scene.

3 episodes in its watchable and interesting enough to want to watch the next episode, but not good enough to be a recommendation. With a different female lead it might be though.

Anyone watch Devil in Ohio?

Watched a mini series 42 days (it actually spanned 6-7 years) of darkness. A murder mystery; six episodes, six hours, and mystery remained unsolved. :man_facepalming:

Sounds horrible, not sure if that’s what you were going for.

I would say annoying.
