Very good first season although I could do without some of the teen angst crap. I liked it, too, though in fairness, she IS a teenager (kinda comes with territory, i think : ) they really made up for it in my mind with just how dark it was willing to go. Every iteration of this character ive either seen or read about had that struggle for balance as a core issue. i hope it gets nominated for some of the makeup effects or something. I also have to contain myself with fact Jaz Sinclair is playing someone underage, not fair Netflix, not fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted December 27, 2018 Share Posted December 27, 2018 Who's watching Marvelous Mrs. Maisel? Any thoughts? I hear it's a musical and...outside of the Blues Brothers, I hate musicals. Something about spontaneously bursting into song and dance to advance a storyline irritates the **** out of me. So if it's like one song an episode, I can handle it. Anything past that, I can't deal.

There are zero song-and-dance routines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoulSkin Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 The Orville started out with a thud. Very kitchy, and pretty dull. Previews for upcoming episodes gave me some hope for the season though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole party to watch him pee would be a cute sub plot but not the centerpiece of the whole episode. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerPacker Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Wasn't the greatest episode, but you take the good with the 'meh' with a show like that. And it wasn't Sub Rosa, so it's got that going for it, which is nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Hey, I came into this thread to pump The Orville. Yeah, their "primary mission" was a joke. Literally. But then I don't think that's really what the episode was about. It was about relationships and dating and shipboard life. I liked that. No big, monumental, Galaxy-saving mission. Just commentary about relationships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just commentary about relationships. That sounds about right. I think the episode was really attempting to re-establish the characters and their relationships for the new season. As for the primary mission, that was call-back to Amok Time, which was the first episode of the second season of TOS.

visionary Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 Catching up on Outlander yesterday (with some of my family, because my mom has read some of the books,) and season two is pretty interesting. There’s a lot of political intrigue so far (5 episodes in). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StillUnknown Posted January 1, 2019 Share Posted January 1, 2019 i finished season 1 of Killing Eve on BBC America. Not sure how I missed it when it first came on, but its on of the more entertaining new shows I've watched. I love the amount of genuine laughs they generate, despite the subject matter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been watching it, it's great. The music is great, too. But certainly not a musical. I really like the lead actress Rachel Brosnahan, Tony Shahloub is great too. Alex Borstein's character is the funniest one on the show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoDeep81 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Finished House of Cards.. (cough) weak (cough) Show lost it's edge when it lost Spacey, unfortunately.. Mrs Maisel.. Said it before, season one was better done and funnier, imo, than Im dying up here.. I can't wait for season 2.. But yea, they do dance and sing. Usually just a few bars and tolerable, but it happens. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chew Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Finally watching Schitts Creek, halfway through S1. Pretty funny. Didn't know the son was Levy's real-life kid. Good to see Chris Elliot, he's a funny dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
