The Television Streaming Thread: Now With Felonies

The promos for this make it seem like pablum for teenage girls. Is it not?

This looks terrible based on the description and quick clip I saw but all my wife’s friends love it so I think she’s going to start watch it.

Shonda Lynn Rhimes is an American television producer, screenwriter, and author. She is best known as the showrunner—creator, head writer, and executive producer—of the television medical drama Grey’s Anatomy, its spin-off Private Practice, and the political thriller series Scandal.

I know I know I know. And I could watch Grey’s or Scandal on repeat. Especially Scandal, goddamn that show so good. There’s just so much new stuff to watch, and I hate to say this because Shonda GOAT, but idk if the show will give me anything new that I didn’t already clap for from a Courtney Milan book. Fortunately all of my friends are watching it, so I feel like I didn’t miss anything.

Are you a Shonda fan?

All aboard for the Trump thread. That could be a juicy draft. We’d have to give a cutoff date though. At the rate this guy fucks up, you could get sniped and then just wait five minutes for him to do something worse.

Maybe we could combine them? When you post your pick, you also post a legendary pic. Not necessarily related to the event of your pick/write up.

I tried Death to 2020 and didn’t last but a few minutes.

My wife was obsessed with this show and I had would catch an episode here and there if I was in the room, it was so bad god damn. I just told her that Bridgerton was made by the Scandal lady and she’s going to start watching it after she finishes Virgin River on Netflix (which is awful)

Ask your wife to post more imo

That’s kind of surprising. I would have thought Scandal would be perfect for many ITT due to the political premise. It’s like “what if Kerri Washington had been Bill Clinton’s secret girlfriend/fixer”

I think I’m just not in the mood for her style right now. She delivers a particular kind of experience, as most auteurs do. I’m ready to process and release an intense amount of grief built up over 2020, so instead I’m watching stuff like Pieces of a Woman.

Just finished The Bureau, overall 5 bags of popcorn and will watch again shortly. A minor gripe: Last two episodes were unnecessary, story wrapped up nicely after episode 8.

American Gods started up Season 3 on prime. I randomly came across it last night. Another major actor change, but I like this one. Looks to be one episode per week though. boo-urns.

So I started rewatching 24 because I’m a horrible person and I’m recovering from mouth surgery so I’m stuck just laying around watching shit all day…

It still holds up man. Yeah it’s over the top ridiculous and the racism is off the charts, but it is a damn good action series with one of the best premises ever put to film.

Cliffs?

I got a free month of Epix for ordering Domino’s

Best two 24 moments were the bad bosses Ryan Chappelle becoming sympathetic and George Mason becoming heroic.

I never watched 24 for first several seasons and then binged every episode in a few weeks one winter. Good times.
