Ahh, thereās so much stuff to watch! Well, mostly comedy, I canāt think of much new in drama that interests me. Shit, you can knock out a season of I Think You Should Leave in the time it takes to watch a movie.
Watchmen?

well thatās showing up weird.
Also, for those looking for something to watch, if you havenāt seen Pose, you need to watch it. Itās fantastic.
Didnāt like watchmen at all. It would have been interesting if they explored the line in the trailer: āYou know how you can tell the difference between a masked cop and a vigilante? Me neither.ā And I kind of thought they were going there for a few episodes, but man, they really really werenāt.
Iāll check that out.
In the meantime, Iāve started Season 2 of The Good Place, and while it fell flat for me in the first season, Iām finding Season 2 interesting enough to hold my attention.
Were you a fan of the comics? I think Watchmen was very good, but only for fans of the original series.
Never read it. And yeah, I think you might be right. Like the series seemed to expect me to know who Mr. Manhattan was and care about him becauseā¦I donāt know.
Imo it peaked in season one, but you might have a different experience. Enjoyed it all until the last season where it kind of ran out of ideas.

Iāve been enjoying Kevin Can F##k Himself, especially related to the sitcom vs dramedy structure.
However, her desire to kill him rather than just leave him still feels illogical and pulls down an otherwise enjoyable show.
I find Iām enjoying it more now that the big reveal has already been revealed, and theyāre just riffing on that theme now, whereas the big reveal itself fell flat for me.

Interesting. I liked season 1 and season 2, but 3 and 4 were a downturn for me and I was really disappointed by the ending.
Anyway, if you ever need comedy recommendations, I got a ton of 'em. (Plus a couple of good dramas from last year; I really liked The Great and The Good Lord Bird.)

Cat People on Netflix
A documentary about people with a strong love for cats. First episode is a cat rapper. Second episode is a woman with a live cat show.
If you like cats Iād recommend it.

Im curious if the two bad episodes you have of Bobs Burgers are the same as mine
goddamn I must have a very specific form of dyslexia that intermittently ignores double consonants and for about three quarters of a second I found this post extremely disconcerting.

Never saw it, canāt pass on a recommendation on anything I havenāt seen, but itās very highly regarded as I understand it. And not just by your average TV critic but people whose opinions I trust.
āFamily Fracasā is definitely one of them. I dunno if I had another one in mind or maybe I just wanted to cover my bases. āChristmas in the Carā maybe.
looooool
how about a Rat Capper, guy who goes around hunting rats with a snub-nosed revolver
