Television General Discussion

The Rock deserved a TV show for far too long too.

he prob got offers but til recently tv shows have been where movie actors go to retire.

Makes sense now that u guys said it. Ballers does have that Entourage vibe about it (not saying its a bad thing)

i never watched the show, it just wasnt on my radar in hs for shit id be interested in watching. wonder if it would hold up if i watched it now.

damn it was that far back? ya i defffff was never gonna watch that.

Final episode of Top Gear aired over the weekend. BBC didn’t advertise it so I missed it, trying to download the ep from a dongle is just painful, it feels like I’ve gone back in time 10 years >_<

ANW update. Warped Wall, still no casualties.

EDIT: Actually I’m wrong, it finally got ONE casualty. I was in the bathroom for it. Congrats WW you finally eliminated someone…a 56 year old…

Finally watched Mr. Robot. Definitely lived up to it’s hype - was not expecting it to be that good.

Its still on bbc iplayer… but if ur not from the uk you might have to get some add ons for firefox to be able to watch it.

Who’s ready for Mr. Robot episode 2 tonight?

EDIT: Don’t do drugs kids.

And Slater’s STILL an asshole. The perfect one. All hail Slater.

Bitten– well, that was a disappointing thing about the wolves on this show… one of the pack dies on this most recent episode I was watching… ep. 5 or 6 if I recall… but it was just from knife wounds. One would assume they could easily be ok after that due to (usually, in most stories) having a supernatural healing factor. Then again, the episode description for the next one indicates the other guy that died after the same fight scene was poisoned, so hopefully that (poisoned blades) is the explanation. The whole time I just kept wondering “WHY are you guys not healing up from this shit?! Where’s that Wolverine-caliber healing factor?!”

It’s also a good thing that this other character’s death debunked a certain guess about who is the mastermind in the current story. (*unless of course it turns out this was him faking his death)

Vampire Diaries - the old era…checking out another episode from season 1… whoahhhh I forgot all about Damon actually fuckin’ around with Caroline back then. He had her tied up and in the bed by the end of the 2nd episode…niiiice. Of course, goody-2-shoes Stefan continued to give the looks of disgust at his brother’s antics.
*little sidenote— Tyler seems to be one of the star players on the school’s football team, and of course…their mascot just happens to be a wolf.
Y’know, looking at what has happened in recent seasons…the writers really pissed away a potentially good character opportunity there. Tyler could’ve been easily reverted back to being a straight up asshole (I actually forgot how much they were trying to make him into one of the clear “bad guys”, at least in terms of the typical high school social-hierarchy; he was the classic “asshole jock/bully” guy)…and possibly a major villain.

Ohhh yes and the ranks/tiers in terms of power were a wildly different thing back then as well… Damon was clearly at the top of the food chain. Stefan was a weak chump due to him restricting his diet to animal blood over the years at that point. Meanwhile, his bro was killing and feeding on people pretty much whenever he felt like it. Bonnie wasn’t even aware of her powers yet (thinking the things her dear old “Grams” said were just ramblings of a superstitious old woman), and Katherine wasn’t even on the scene yet (both Salvatore brothers assumed she was dead a long time ago), and werewolves weren’t yet official and “outed” as such.

lol hannibal conveniently survives :grimace:

he got his ass whooped by morpheus though

Yeah, Jack BODIED Hannibal. So satisfying to watch

For a show that’s not known for its fight scenes, the few they do have are amazingly done

was bored and started watching Unreal which is the fictional show about the behind the scenes on a bachelor type show. it’s on lifetime so i went in with no expectations but it’s actually pretty good. at the very least it gives me something to watch on monday nights which is the slowest tv night for me.

another show i started watching while bored was humans. it’s kept me interested but not much watch at all.

checking out old Vampire Diaries episodes again— it’s a real shame they killed off Vicki so fast in this series… she made for an interesting “wild card” character. She was also how the show first displayed the process of a person transitioning from human to vampire…then there was the tension of certain characters trying to keep things a secret…soooo much good stuff going on with this show back then.

We all knew he would survive lol, but that was an amazing ass whooping.

The episode felt so odd though, I can’t put my finger on it but it just didn’t feel ‘Hannibal’.

Also lol at Will falling head over heels.

So does anyone know what’s going on with Steven Universe? I recently got hooked on the show and I’m not for these re-runs of Teen Titans Go! and Uncle Grandpa, though Clarence is okay.

i watch steven universe religiously…and LOL at the barely secret lesbian relationship with rose and pearl. its been gettin pretty dark with the gem fusion stuff.

ANW update, Military Night.

Another no casualty night for the Wall…because damn near nobody could reach the damn thing. Only 10 finishers because the I-Beam Cross is some bullshit.
