I think we might have the same for you because it’s those two plus South Park for me

 

It was good. I wasn't expecting a lot of his set to be the same bits he's doing on late night talk shows and his SNL monologues since he got out of rehab though.

 

That's fair. I haven't been checking out those appearances at all, so it's all fresh to me. I would imagine after going through such a traumatic and healing event such as that you would want to capture that essence in your new special more than trying to come up with new, unheard material. I suppose that doesn't change much for the viewer that has kept up with him and is sort of used to them though

 

It might be the only Sorkin project that doesn't make me cringe.

 

looks fun

 

Watched Baby J last night. I was a little disappointed in how many of the bits had been on talk shows already. Still enjoyed it though.

 

hell yeah, just rewatched both neighbors movies recently

 

I've been "unplugged" for the last few months to catch up on DVDs that're piling up. Been planning on subbing to one streaming service a month depending on what I wanna watch, but with the way things are looking at HBO Max, I think I'll only keep the Disney/Hulu bundle monthly, then add Shudder and Prime as needed, as well as Peacock and Starz periodically once those promos end. My brother pays for Netflix, so that's not going anywhere.

 

My wife's binging the ranch right now.

What an incredibly oddly toned show? I really wish they just committed to the more seriousness and drama of the show and not sprinkle in terrible sitcom laugh track jokes for no reason. I'm not saying the show needed to be a drama, it could be funny and light hearted, but the jokes are a) terrible. B) doesn't fit in so many moments.

The show isn't terrible but it's on the cusp of being actually good. The actors are giving it their all. I like the dark lighting. Its well done.... but then for no reason the show is like, "oh wait we need a random joke...uh... I know you're scared about dying so I got you dairy queen, WHOOPS I ate some on the way sorry! Ha ha ha ha... anyways, so yeah mortality is scary and I'm a terrible father and I'm sorry"

The jokes are really really bad. 40 episoda in and not the slightest laugh.

But everything else about the show isn't bad

 

We’ve been living in a black mirror episode since 2020

 

It’s been at least since 2016, which is when I started having to take the simulation theory seriously

 

ill take 10 seasons

 

Oh better call Saul season 6 finally on Netflix?? I might not get any sleep tonight after all

 

We just finished the last season, incredible

 

Ah yeah and I meant season 6 just got added, not season 5

 

Watched the first two episodes of Love and Death. It's okay so far, but still not totally sold

 

Beef.

God damn that was good. I was not expecting that. I feel like the previews didn't give it justice. I thought this was going to be more of a "they both do pranks on each other and it escalates", but i loved the slow spiral of it all. It's my fault, it DID say A24 so that alone gave it credibility. Everyting about this was perfect. Pacing, acting, writing, tone, music (obv), all of it was solid. The ending was bonkers but just the right level. I've read that they COULD do more seasons but idk, it was perfect, there's no need.

 

I almost wish I watched it before the controversy, now I can't bring myself to

 

Started Citadel. It’s exactly what you’d expect from the premise. Which means I’ll enjoy it just fine.

 

starting love and death

 

What controversy?

 

One of the supporting actors did this interview on a podcast where he basically was like “yep, I raped a massage therapist. Raped her good.” It was fucking gross and weird.
