The Television Streaming Thread: Now With Felonies

Right??? I remember people being like uhhhh do you think these might not be the best choices for this subject matter? And then they backed out or were politely encouraged at least to withdraw from their Star Wars deal and focus on Netflix. Their first production for Netflix was the Leslie Jones special. Just very interesting to see a person’s career over a long period of time.

I have more to discuss but must attend to my dog. BRB.

Any idea what happened to the Dark Tower pilot? It got made, there was hype from Amazon and then it didn’t get picked up. Was it just shit?

Its not, no. Its an adaptation of Stephen King’s The Dark Tower. Amazon made a pilot and then declined to pick up the series

The original tiger king

Remedial chaos theory is a fantastic episode of Community.

It also gave us this.

Better Call Saul seems really up and down. The downs are the setup episodes for the ups which are pretty awesome.

The latest episode was pretty weak.

Honestly the whole Saul telling Kim everything agreement seemed like a lame plot device for her to get involved in cartel business and of course that’s exactly what happened. She’s definitely turning out to be the weak point in the show now. Given what she’s been restricted to and what she now knows, it would be unsurprising for her to be killed off at the end of the season.

Disagree with your overall take, but definitely agree Monday’s episode wasn’t all that great.

I get the episodes on Friday. So I assume I’m getting the previously aired episode and not the one coming up next.

The next one is shaping up to be strong.

Prediction: Kim asks for a dust filter for a Hoover Max Extract® 60 Pressure Pro™ at the end of the season. Perhaps that’s how Saul found out about it. Not sure from who unless they filmed it before the actor died irl

One of my favorites for sure. I am going to have to go back and watch community through for 7th time I think.

Joe Exotic is just Trump without money. Let’s not make that loser into some kind of folk hero.

You’re not really missing anything. It’s just a trainwreck, nothing interesting about it.

And he’s in prison for 22 years… There’s some kind of lesson in that. Florida man wouldn’t be dangerous if he hadn’t been born a billionaire.

Agree I finally watched it and found it all very boring and populated by loathsome people. The only real shock was the suicide.

Trainwrecks are interesting. That’s why drug rehab shows exist.
