Your Ten Favorite Shows Currently on Television

Couldn't stand new ytw. I didn't think of game of thrones I thought it was an apocalypse now tribute or s thing

i think they were going for The Ring or something

Danerys stuff I meant more when she specifically fucks with Jimmy like last week when she stood on the table & yelled HEY DOT DOT DOT in his face

Edgar literally said "Japanese ghost" and it was a hella obvious grudge/ring vibe

i loved the HEY DOT DOT DOT in the premiere. haven’t seen any other episodes yet but i’m bummed if the writing is as uneven as it was at the end of last season :\

it’s pretty good so far.

Is anyone else watching the last season of Halt and Catch Fire aka the show with the coolest music supervision on tv

This is so good right now. Haley putting on "Fish Heads" in the car <3

tales from the road

*tales from the tour bus, rather.

i binged through the second season of One Mississippi with my gal last night and hooboy it's good but potentially triggering. highly recommended but watch your step.

most recent YTW ep was pretty good, i guess i'm still watching it so it didnt totally fall off a cliff, now that they're not entertaining the idea that shes about to get back w/ jimmy its improved

Anyone watching Great News? The last episode was a Tina Fey script and probably the funniest straight-up sitcom episode I've seen in ages.

The show as a whole is... not great. It's uncanny valley 30 Rock. Some great lines delivered by a *not quite* great cast. By this season has been better.

s2 of Better Things has been *fantastic*

omg the adult boyfriend in the first episode

ready for autumn:

yea I watch this & enjoy

I did not even know this show existed until I saw a commercial for it during The Good Place. 'Oh, hey! Tina Fey has a new sitcom! I had no idea! (internets for more details) And this show I would like to watch and have never heard of is in its second season! Congratulations once again on your complete incompetence, NBC!'

Fey didn't join the cast until this season, though. The first season it was a sitcom about a young news professional whose endearingly wacky mom comes to work at her job. It looked like pretty much the worst thing ever.

Fey's just finished a guest spot but was amazing.

I's a fun punchline machine, but the lead is the weakest link, and almost every character is a 30 Rock analogue. I like Andrea Martin but she's suuuuper broad. Overall it's improving but still has a while to go before it reaches Happy Endings levels of sucking-to-suddenly-being-awesome.

Ahhh, okay. Didn't notice it wasn't a Fey vehicle, but it is created and written by 30 Rock alumni so still potentially intersting.

hooray Dirk Gently is back

new mike judge cartoon is real good, cartoon depictions of some country legend's stories. two part tammy wynette/george jones episode was great. highly recommended

Girlfriend Experience is back - Seimetz and Kerrigan split directing duties and are telling two different stories, with one ep of each airing every week. A neat idea, and seeing them work apart really sharpens the difference in how they direct. The sequence that opened Kerrigan's segment was maybe harder to watch than anything in the first season.

the first half you mean? yeah, it led to a yelling argument in my house.

yes, that one. and I suspect it started a lot of arguments in a lot of houses.

liking that amy sedaris show which feels like it's spiritually akin to pee wee's playhouse on some level

most definitely.

dirk gently x 10

So y'all are saying The Girlfriend Experience should not be experienced with one's girlfriend? Duly noted.

The art direction in the Kerrigan episode is even more ludicrous than last season. So many sterile white rooms

Plus the ominous low level hum soundtracking every scene

yeah I'm hoping he tones it down a bit in the rest of the season, I like how he directs but it's verging on self parody

I'm mostly there for the creepy sterile hotels and the low level hum parts

yeah I'm not saying I don't get a kick out it

apple's version of a zipless fuck

Nirvanna The Band The Show season 2 is running now, it's pretty great so far!

after painstaking research into what i want to start next, i've settled on Billions, i'm not sure what this means

here's a surprise: SMILF on Showtime is really good
also the pilot to "Love You More" on Amazon is spectacular
the leads in both shows are women named Bridget who go topless so that's an odd coincidence

SWF had a topless Bridget Fonda. Makes you think

Dirk Gently is back? Need to track that down...season 1 was some funny weirdness.

s2 more of the same in the best way possible

huh, Amazon has a George Saunders pilot too

I watched the SMILF pilot and didn't like it as much as I'd hoped.

Currently watching The Leftovers, which is really good. Ann Dowd (Aunt Lydia from The Handmaid's Tale, a mean-ass cult leader in this) is amazing playing people you really want to punch in the throat.

Are you only on season 1 of The Leftovers? If so it hasn't even hit its stride yet!

Dirk Gently season 2 so far has been great, yeah. I really hope they are going where I think they are going with the interdimensional stuff.

No, I'm about two episodes from the end of season 2.

huh, Amazon has a George Saunders pilot too

man the you're the worst recent episodes captured the truth of a reaction to someone spilling their trauma stories N' guts. People hear it and they dunno what to do with that info, as Edgar clearly has experienced.

Search party is back
Search party is good
