velocet Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 I know this isn't a Mr Robot thread per se, so one last post about the show and I'll shut up about it. Thing is, this comment is centered on exactly that: shutting up about Mr. Robot. Allow me to reset this post by our own Moco: Here Moco is talking about Kanye West and his unwanted input toward Beck during an awards show. By way of tribute to a fallen comrade I wanted to cop Moco's particular turn of phrase a bit to underscore the notion of shutting up about Mr. Robot. See, if I were asked to give any constructive criticism of any sort about the show I would have to simply reply by {slight paraphrase here} [sitting quietly] my ass would be in my seat, hands on my lap and a big ass smile on my face. Not because if I talked askew about Mr. Robot I fear a Lil Reese or Chief Keef (I honestly never heard of them prior to reading Moco's post) would issue physical torment. No, it's because personal sanity forfend I directly contradict my viewing experience. How... well it isn't to say it's a perfect or flawless show... but HOW can I think to pick with any bit of it when... I mean... dude. This guy: ...Rami Malek plays a character who shows up on screen with a flat affect most of the time. The only other role I've seen played in a similar way and with the same genius is title character of Rainman. Yes I said it Malek is throwing down with Dustin Hoffman level mastery. When you've got that going on in a show maaaaaaaaaaaaan.... Um... complaints, criticisms... nah. I'll just sit here quietly my ass in my seat with my hands in my lap and a big ass smile on my face... velocet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visionary Posted September 12, 2015 Share Posted September 12, 2015 (edited) Just burned through the first five episodes of Sex and Drugs and Rock And Roll on FX (on Demand). Pretty funny show. The main girl's hot too. Edited September 12, 2015 by visionary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillUnknown Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 watched the first episode of The ****'s Executioner, and there was not a lot good about it. I'll give it a couple of more episodes, but I can't see this one holding my attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visionary Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 (edited) I kind of liked it after the battle scene, although it was so obvious that the Mrs Sutter's prophetess character would be more important than she seemed. If they make this show all about her manipulating people....ugh. Not sure what's going on with the magical girl that keeps showing up in his visions.

Peg Bundy's accent might be the worst part of the show Edited September 17, 2015 by StillUnknown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 12th Commandment Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 maybe its a bit of art imitating life...... Peg Bundy's accent might be the worst part of the show I knew when word of this show first came out that she would be front and center. Hope Sutter has a happy home front at least. What they did with her ruined SOA. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Supergirl starts tonight. I expect a lighter version of Arrow/Flash but the previews look solid. We'll see if it can keep an audience on CBS. Still think it belongs on the CW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give it a shot since it comes on right after Big Bang Theory(even though that show sucks now, I'm still kinda watching it out of habit).

It'd be a lot better on almost any other network. I saw the pilot online over the summer. I liked it. Will see how it fairs. Ok. So I didn't watch the early pilot because I wasn't sure if it was finished. Watched the official one last night. Couple of thoughts - they are going to need a better bad than her evil Aunt. Boring. Also, I don't get the point of casting Jimmy Olsen as anything other than a geeky dude. Whatever. That said, I'm going to stick around with it because..it's really not that bad and it beats the hell out of watching overdone comedies. Also, Jessica Jones starts soon on NetFlix. Can't wait. I'm about 1/2 of the way through Alias (not the TV show - the comic series that this show is based on). If the show is 1/2 as good as that, I'm sold. Plus, I'm really interested in how deliciously evil they let David Tennant be in the show. Edited October 27, 2015 by The Evil Genius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillUnknown Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 The trailers didn't do much for me, but I liked the opener more than I thought I would. Its light, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2015/10/27/tv-ratings-monday-oct-26-2015/480552/ Here are the early numbers on CBS' "Supergirl": 3.2 in adults 18-49 and 12.94 million viewers. Both numbers are the best for a series premiere this fall, and a little higher than most readers predicted in the guess-the-ratings poll. Those are great numbers, now it just has to show it has staying power. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 What will be interesting is if CBS allows for Supergirl crossovers with Flash and/or Arrow and/or Legends of Tomorrow. It won't happen til Season 2..but still. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Genius Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I just hope it doesn't try to hard. Love Bruce Campbell..but sometimes he can overdo it. Ok, all the time. But still..glad Starz is giving it the ability to be mostly uninhibited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
