Oh yeah Night of was great. Westworld next week I think
Oh yeah Night of was great.
Halt and Catch Fire
Did anyone happen to catch the premiere of the The Exorcist on FOX? Just reading around and seeing positive reviews/feedback, wanted to know if anyone here saw it and had some comments?
This show is great and it's a shame that seemingly no one has heard of it. I'm glad it is somehow getting a third season.
I highly recommend all of you nerds check this out.
Anyone catch the new MacGuyver the other night and think it does the old show any justice or too early to tell?
Reviews for it have been terrible. It looks like they completely missed what made the old show fun.
Are you being serious? Is Z Nation that good?
Z-Nation- Just can't get into this. Watched the first season, I thought it was dumb. Not good-dub, just regular dumb. /// I thought this looked stupid dumb. Tempted to watch 1 show now though. Is it sort of like Shaun of the Dead? That was awesome. This looked more like that horrible Woody Harrelson zombie movie.
Narcos- This show is heavy for me so I can only watch an episode of two at most before I have to take a break from it. It's very well made, but it wears on you. So much reading doesn't help. I'm about 1/2 way through Season 2. /// Top 5 show all time. We watch everything w/subtitles. I have some hearing loss so i've used subtitles for years - so I honestly didn't realize it was in spanish until I just confirmed w/my wife. "Yeah hon, like 85% was Spanish?". Who knew - anyways, so that def didn't affect my viewing, and as such, we did knock out 2-3 shows a night and S2 is just amazing, as good as S1. I won't spoil, but...there are a lot of things this series could do if it wanted to continue.
Luke Cage- I'm hot/cold with this one. There's parts I really like about it...and parts that I do not. Honestly, I feel it's trying to hard to pander to the black viewers. As in "Hey look black america....we can be black toooo!!!!" At times, the dialog sound like silly things white writers would "think" black folks would say. /// will be starting this in a week or two.
iZombie- Unlike Z Nation, this show is "good dumb". Like Flash, Hulu fucked this on up good with season 2 so watch it comes to Netflix, I'll watch it as well. Finished up season 1 some time ago. /// We enjoyed it, same vein as "Dead Like Me", heroine is cute and fun which is enough for me.
Walking Dead- Fully caught up but will not be watching the next season in real time. I'm fucking sick of the cliffhanger/mid season break shit, it ruins the flow fo the show and ending damn near every episode wide open is the current path they're taking. I'll binge watch it come this time next year. /// We don't watch any shows real time - everything is a season at a time on Netflix. It doesn't change the feeling - we just wrapped up last ep of S6...just hanging on who was getting beat w/the bat. This show has so many directions they can run - it imo is still innovative and unpredictable - we love it. I told my wife in mid S3 that Michonne and Rick would hook up - glad they did, it fits.
Daredevil- Fully caught up and season 2 was freaking awesome. I wonder how long it will be before we get a Season 3. /// Punisher was beyond great. Less Foggy in S2 was also great (Elden Henson and his character are both miserable). Vincent D'onofrio seemed too over the top the first part of S1, but to his credit, he has sold it well and now he's one of my fav characters. Excellent show.
Jessica Jones- Another good series. Stupid slow at the start, it picked up quick and ended well. //// Agree, started very slow, and being personally unfamiliar w/the comic character, it was even slower. We stopped, read up a little and tried again. Ended up being really well done.
Man in the High Castle- Finished season 1 some time ago...look forward to whenever season 2 comes out. /// Haven't watched yet - have it in the queue though.
Westworld- Like everyone else, I watched the first episode of this last night and it did not disappoint. It was superb. I have high hopes for this show... /// Never heard of until this thread - very intrigued.
