The Television Streaming Thread: Part II - Hot Takes, Jags Fans, and Bert

Yeah, the movie was…very much not Hellblazer. Not too bad if you watch it as “inspired by” though. Also, Stormare.

The best part of Armageddon!!

They’re making a sequel to Constantine w Keanu. Hope they bring his Lucifer back too.

I hear you about the adaptation. Were you a fan of the CW version??

Making a slight change here

  1. Handmaid’s Tale
  2. House of Cards
  3. Dexter
  4. Prison Break
  5. Lost

Prison break was so bad, I guess I blocked it out. There is probably something that will knock Lost out of the #5 spot. It will come to me, eventually.

Im guessing you didnt stick with Heroes? Because that goes above Lost for sure.

Thanks. Never saw that one.

Omg yup Prison Break was the GOAT show for the first half of season 1, but then it was incredibly popular and they extended a perfect limited series into four seasons that had nothing to do with breaking out of prison until the legasequel series.

I’m so jealous. Battlestar Galactica should be your first watch imo. You will binge the **** out of it.

Did you watch The Vow? Two actors in BSG show went on to be members of NXIVM.

Wow, HT must have really fallen off a cliff in the last season!

It’s so bad now. I had been hate-watching for a while but bailed out mid-season.

Yeah I stopped after two eps of the last season. Sounds like the right decision.

But…worse than Dexter, Prison Breaks and Heroes? That’s a fucking tall order, they were all beyond awful in later seasons (and Heroes from s2 onwards iirc).

I’m might be suffering from some recency bias, but I still think that putting it ahead of those seems completely reasonable.

Rewatching the Sopranos since I’m bedridden with covid. Somehow missed this line from Paulie the first few times around.

Guess I’ll have to take your word for it, since I’m definitely not masochistic enough to finish handmaid.

New series on Netflix starring Charlie Cox (Daredevil). Looks good. Anyone else going to watch?

On S1E4 now, you’re saying the LATER seasons get strange? Well alrighty then!

Fleishman Is In Trouble episode 7 is the single best episode of TV since Breaking Bad Ozymandias.

It is worth watching the series for it alone.
