The Television Streaming Thread: Now With Felonies

So they finally got around to making a remake of Utopia, and it looks like it sucks

Love on the Spectrum is a really excellent show. Highly recommended.

Any movie where a character protects himself hurdling through space into an asteroid belt using a space garbage can lid is by definition awful.

I predicted it was going to suck from the beginning, because what made the original so great was the production and post-production. The music was amazing. The cinematography was amazing. All the hyper-saturated color techniques they perfected in S2 were amazing. Neil Maskell was amazing. The way they’d just randomly open an episode with something like this was amazing:

What wasn’t amazing - what started out maybe slightly edgy and then quickly devolved into all of the most tired and dumb sci-fi tropes - was the underlying plot. And that’s the part they decided to remake.

I keep hearing about this. Going to check it out. Need a new series to watch.

The Spectacular Now is terrific. On Showtime at the moment but regularly cycles through the other platforms.

How dark and mature or light and funny do you want it to be?

Just watched episode two of this and it had one of the most realistic sex scenes, and maybe the best virgin scene, I have ever seen on film.

It’s a pretty low bar. Nearly all sex scenes on tv and movies are pretty awful.

Lol, you mean people don’t both orgasm at the same time in 60 secs all the time?

Follow ggoreo’s recommendation of Normal People. It’s the best thing I have seen since Fleabag. We can’t stop watching it!
