2,3. This was wild, I was surprised she wasnāt scalded to death when she was swimming in this water that has to be >50C. But I guess her character is very selfless and didnāt want to put anyone in this most perilous situation. Good person to make Sheriff imo
I read a few of his early novels before he was big, especially the series about people developing super powers.
But I never knew Martin was so involved in television since the 80s. Heās made more TV shows than novels!!
I gotta check out his episodes of that decadeās Twilight Zone.
Silo (caught up/current up)
Iām sticking with it, but the constant āsecret/mystery behind every cornerā stuff is annoying me. It feels very designed to keep the viewer watching without revealing much at all.
This is a pretty good assessment of how Walking Dead shit itself
Silo ep3
Fair that they didnāt know exactly how to go about it, but it seemed like they hadnāt even discussed even the rudiments of a plan.
Also fair that she couldnāt ask anyone else to risk their life on the spot. But why didnāt they think of this evidently very viable option to extend the time they had to do repairs beforehand? They were already super tight on time.
Fair that you didnāt see it, but the people in the cafeteria must have no?
Anyway, still like the show!
Just a thought but what is the harm in having dedicated threads to each show so people can openly discuss without spoiler tags?
I think it was doomed to end this way, the premise of the show only had so far it could go, two seasons was probably the limit.
Aint nobody got time for that. Iāll just say I enjoyed TWD up until the end. Sure, they storylines got really stretched out towards the end, and the last 3 seasons felt like they couldāve been packed into one, but whatever. Maybe the problems were less noticeable to me because I always binged the seasons.
Iām excited for the Rick & Michonne spinoff coming next year.
So the problems started when I was cast.
If there is demand we can do it. The problem I see is that people often forget to use dedicated threads (or donāt know they exist) and post in the main thread.
What did you like about this show?
I tried a few times and every time felt like wtf this is forced, artificial, terrible writing that no performance could ever save.
But itās acclaimed! Even on this board.
Help me see it from your POV plz
There is no harm, it just takes one person to start it. I asked people if we should have an MCU thread, people said no, and I eventually decided to say fuck it and start one anyways.
Did you get around to this? Pretty sweet after 2 seasons imo.
I assumed people did see it but just hasnāt been revealed yet that they did, I donāt see how the writers could say people didnāt see it.
No, couldnāt get wife on board. But Iāll take another run at it. The Soulman seal of approval undoubtedly carries some weight.
couldnāt disagree more about the writing! at a most basic level, find the best thing about the show to be its sense of humor. can totally see how it may not be to everyoneās liking with the rapid-fire deliveries and the endless super-witty replies, but the awesomeness of the writing is not only in the dialog and her stand up, but also in the stage direction (think Iām using this term correctly). the show is like more like a well crafted play at times (the Odd Couple comes to mind as a comparison) which adds a frantic energy in all the right ways and can only work well with highly skilled performers.
then thereās the storyline. a mom of two gets dumped by her philandering husband in an otherwise idealized version and relentlessly optimistic portrayal of a Jewish family in 1950ās NYC, and channels her pain into comedy. her brilliance is recognized by Susie, a down-and-out club manager whoās constantly referred to as a man, and Lenny Bruce (of all people) who serves simultaneously as a muse and a cautionary tale for Midge and the audience. and thereās also the ever-present sexism and misogyny (and racism and homophobia) that undercuts her act, career and the show.
and itās great to look at. Roseās coats alone are exquisite.
I could keep going, but this should give you a sense why it was so loved
Ty I wish the experience of the show was to my taste. Thankfully it was to a lot of other peopleās.
Man I hate to say it but is Silo blowing it? First 3 episodes great, last 3 nothing happens other than more questions and then the dreaded flashback episode this week. Cool 
I posted something similar upthread, itās gotten pretty annoying. Itās been downgraded to a show that I put on while working out.
