Grebel Posted September 22, 2016 Share IMO there is nothing more disappointing than re-watching a TV series that you remember fondly from your youth. Edit: Or the modern day remake for that matter...

Readsalot Posted September 22, 2016 Share Anyone watch Preacher....., little like LOST with a dash of AMERICAN HORROR STORY, sprinkled with some Tarantino wanna be..WTF? I loved Preacher - maybe because I'm a comic book fan. I thought they did a great job with casting and while obviously they had a limited budget, I looked forward to each new episode. So the new season of Blindspot started on Hulu, and it doesn't seem it will get any better soon.Started watching "The Good Place". It isn't to bad. Ha - The Good Place actually made me laugh. Good casting (it helps that I'm a fan of both Kristen Bell and Ted Danson). Watched 30min of 'The Blacklist'. What a load of tripe. It's as if though they got a 13 year old to write how he thinks the FBI is. Thereafter I watched the first episode of 'Fargo' and I'm gripped. Wasn't too keen on Freeman's accent for the first few minutes, but thereafter it's barely noticeable. Enjoyed the hell out of Thorton's cool-as-a-cucumber assassin character. I quite liked The Blacklist (the first couple of seasons, anyway). However, I have to admit that I'm a big fan of James Spader so I might not be completely objective. I started losing interest towards the end of last season, though. One thing I wish they would do is write good series and then when they are finished go out with a bang, like Banshee. Instead they start dragging it out because it's successful and then eventually they run out of ideas. I see season 2 of Lucifer is on dstv...[emoji57] Yes! Love that smarmy, smug, charming devil.

Readsalot Posted September 26, 2016 Share Soooo... Of the new series that started: I was surprised to find myself liking Lethal Weapon a lot more than I thought I would. However, the pilot was written by Shane Black who wrote Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and Nice Guys and directed by McG who directed Charlie's Angels, 3 Days to Kill, etc. In other words, a world class team. So, will have to see what happens with the next few episodes. But a strong, confident start. As opposed to MacGyver, which felt rushed and left me less than impressed. I think they tried to stuff too many things into the pilot so it kind of felt like having a little kid shout, "Look at me!" while you're trying to relax. Plus, now MacGyver is suddenly a martial arts expert as well? Let's just say I'm not completely whelmed yet. Designated Survivor was okay but I'm not a big fan of political thrillers. Looks like fans of 24 and Homeland will enjoy it, though. I kind of liked Pitch but I'm not sure exactly how they are going to stretch it into a whole series. Yes, quite cool to see a girl pitch for the majors, but now what? Will see, but I have my reservations. Finally, I thought Agents of SHIELD had a hell of an opening (ha ha, see what I did there?) Ghostrider kicked ass and I can't wait to see more of him (though I do miss the bike). However, I started losing interest in SHIELD halfway through the last season because of mediocre writing so I will see how long they keep up their new dark edge. Talking about Marvel - this weekend the Luke Cage starts on Netflix! That means my weekend is booked, because it's going to be AWESOME. popcorn_skollie, 'Kaze Pete and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
