The Television Streaming Thread: Now With Felonies

Just finished Mr. Inbetween. What a great show, and the actor who plays his daughter is so good

There was a ton of discussion about Dark a year or two ago worth revisiting. Cliffs: s2 and s3 are great.

John Oliver is coming out of his void next Sunday night, so I thought tonight was a great time to visit the best thing hes ever done. I was not disappointed.

Hopefully Bob is eating shit in hell

The show is fairly hand holding but it is in more subtle ways like the jump cuts are basically always from characters to other versions of themselves or it’ll be a jump cut between characters but in the same location and between mother and daughter. Plus you have characters like the old long silver haired lady (Claudia) who are also trying to make sense of things and leave handy charts and maps lying around for other characters (and therefore us) to find.

Yes, the whole series is pretty great.

I haven’t rewatched it, but it’s almost certainly worthy of one.

Holy shit today’s episode of Ted Lasso was legit one of the best episodes of television I’ve ever seen

Did you just start watching TV recently?

I mean it was good and all, but that seems a bit over the top.

where is my unheart button

Also its the best episode of TL by imdb rating so far by 0.1 points so I’m pretty sure I’m justified here boyo.

Admittedly that was a bit trolly. But I’m a bit curious why you thought it was that great. I thought it was solid. Typical feelgood Ted Lasso stuff.

Everything, every single scene and line and shot was perfect. It completed me.

I see what you did there.

I thought the Rebecca on Bantr stuff was a bit weak. Presumably they’re laying some groundwork for the future, tho.

Reddit nerds seem to think that tedbecca is too obvious and tropey but I’m not so sure.

what would ted do if someone threw a rock at his window?

It was very good. One of the best episodes of TV I’ve seen this year, although I haven’t thought too much about what the other ones might be. Also effective way to cram in your rom-com story beats in 38 minutes.

They could have called it “Nil Actually,” except Love Actually wasn’t about tennis so that doesn’t really make sense.

@Trolly probably already knows this, but I just found out that Robert Redford is in an early Twilight Zone episode. It seems like people always talk about William Shatner and Billy Moomey being on the show, so how am I just learning about Redford today?
