Television General Discussion

It didn’t need one…But I’m all for the return of the cheesy as fuck Greek mythology shows like Xena and Hercules that have women in them in skimpy skirts and halter tops doing front flips an shit.

Bring it on, I’m all for quality cheese. Hell maybe this time they will go all the way with the lesbian subtext. Xena and Gabrielle wanted to fuck so bad.

wooooo yeah that reminded me-- yeah I was watching Xena occasionally just to check out Callisto and Gabrielle. Xena herself was 3rd place hotness. A Xena/Gabby make-out/groping scene would’ve been quite alright with me.

*and dumbass Hollywood, man— back in the 90s they had 2 famous prime candidates for a Wonder Woman with Lucy Lawless and my baby Famke Jansen, but apparently no one was interested in producing a Wonder Woman movie or show at the time, I guess? Fast forward to now, and both of those choices are a bit too old to play the part at this point…and they end up casting a woman that barely looks like she’s even 3 digits in weight…average bikini probably fits loose on her stringbean toothpick-lookin’ ass…turrible, man.

Lucy Lawless would’ve been a bomb ass Wonder Woman.

Famke, oh Famke. If I were her husband, it would’ve been a WRAP when I saw the sauna scene in GoldenEye.

“Do you think you can break me…?”

Oh, word? Kid would’ve been conceived in the theater’s bathroom, lmao!

Wonder woman = Lucy lawless imho… They should of made her wonder womans mother due to her age. Ray donavan is excellent as usual and yes ephs kid is annoying as fuck… your mums dead… and vampire now get over it!

young xena woulda been a dope wonder woman but def not now. unless its one of these titan kids takin up the mantle and shes like an older ww.

Too lazy to Google it up but I read somewhere that the lone gunmen are coming back on the new x-files mini series that’s slated for next year, I think. You never really know who’s dead or still alive on that show. But still, woot!!!

i saw that too. im really confused, they all got murked. so i guess this is the reboot part cause they were one of the most fun parts of the show…and its hilarious how much of that shit came true.

I forgot about Ray Donovan. Damn I gotta start season 3

And this Red Dragon storyline looks to be all types of fucked up on Hannibal

Ray Donovan worth watching? Looking for something new since Hannibal starting to wind down and True Detective 2 is basically shit.

Did binge watch the first season of HBO’s The Leftovers again, I really like this show. Entire world going into an existential crisis over a universal WTF event? Some great performances from the cast all around, glad to see it’s back for a 2nd season.

i lost interest in ray donovan towards the mid/end of season 2 and i think it was pretty forgettable.

haha, from the comments section it appears most are on the same page about Eph’s kid http://www.ew.com/recap/the-strain-season-2-episode-3

hahaaha people HATE the shit out of this character now. I realize that in the show, it still has only been a short period of time since the outbreak and the situation with his mom----in their time, the stuff from season 1 just happened probably a couple of days ago, and it would obviously take him quite a while to get over it and accept that Mom is gone… but the kid is still annoying though.

So, the SWAT Vamps…

yep

Spoiler

WHAT the fuck, man? What was even the point if they were just going to get killed right there in Palmer’s office?! Well, there’s still the “ancients” hanging around though

Yeh the thing with the SWAT vamps was hella disappointing, WTF man.

Ray donovan is excellent… watch it!

Clarkson, Hammond, and May sign a deal with Amazon to create a new show on their Prime streaming service…

nothin wrong with some frying swat vamp :sunglasses:

Cinemax has yet to confirm, but a TV Line source indicates that next year’s eight episode of “Banshee” will be the series’ last.

The final season of the show – whose main characters include a lapsed Amish mobster and a conman pretending to be a lawman – is adding Eliza Dushku (“Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” “Dollhouse”) to a cast that already includes Trieste Kelly Dunn (“Canterbury’s Law,” “Golden Boy”), Ivana Milicevic (“Casino Royale”) and Lili Simmons (“Hawaii Five-0”).

“Banshee” is the brainchild of Jonathan Tropper, who wrote last year’s big-screen Jason Bateman/Tina Fey/Jane Fonda dramedy “This is Where I Leave You.”

:’( Excellent while it lasted no doubt it will go out with a bang…

To be honest I was surprised that they even did last season. After they dealt with Rabbit and people close to him finding out who he really is I thought that would have been it, but with Job the tech guy getting kidnapped by the military it feels like they’ve jumped the shark.

oh shit yeh, I hope he is black ops or something crazy so it all ties in.

Looks like there’s gonna be a reason to get Amazon Prime.


Actually, who am I kidding, we’re all most likely going to get it from torrents like we used to do with Top Gear.

I’m not surprised if Banshee is going into it’s final season. They (the writers) already knew the last thing they had to address was the main character’s identity, and the note they ended S3 on really shows that. That season finale hinted at a big final season where everything is on the line, where doing a S5 afterward would probably be pretty damn hard to top.
