the technical talk in patriot is amazing. that scene where he has to bluff his way through that speech? and i didnt like season 2 as much as season 1, but still, it was good.

yeah s2 of prime is a downer after s1. still pretty good but doesn't hit the highs of the first season. and they clearly were expecting to have another season based on how s2 ended.

There's a new stand-up special by Jim Gaffigan that's pretty funny if you like him (I do). Somewhere in the middle he does 10 straight minutes of jokes about horses, and by the end of it he's actively ridiculing the audience for being annoyed by all the horse jokes.

vegemitegrrl recs have *never* let me down. just finished red oaks and jfc that show. the writing in general overall, but the way Nash puts his part over was SO effing wonderful. and Paul Reiser as asshole with a heart was really well played

Red Oaks is one of my favorite shows ever. The character arcs are beautiful. And some really great endings to episodes - the series ending in particular.

Is anyone else watching Carnival Row? For a show about faeries, it is relentlessly gray and grim. I think Ornaldo Bloomps was badly miscast. The scene where the wizened store owner jerks him off was pretty good though. Is it worth watch the last few eps?
― Mario Meatwagon (Moodles), Monday, 9 September 2019 12:49 (four years ago) link
Saw one ep. Felt like Peaky Blinders with fary wings/steampunk, does it get beyond that?

been watching good omens and halfway-enjoying it out of residual affection for the book--but it's bad. i can't imagine watching this show without having read the book. the kids can't act, neither can the witch. tennant looks bored (by design, but still) and it manages to waste jon hamm, of all people. but michael sheen is delightful, makes the whole thing almost worth it.

the visuals are so frenetically busy underneath her that it undermines her casual delivery from what might otherwise play as deadpan.
this is it. i understand the need for a narrator in adapting this book (it always reminded me of hitchhiker's guide in that regard), but they shoulda just gotten jim dale!

watched the first 10 mins of a Charlie Chaplin documentary on there just now. it was not good.

went back up to check the Good Omens talk and
One of the episodes of Good Omens has the intro 25 minutes in. That's just not on.

Agreed, but he’s stayed busy - was in Long Shot, is in the Alexander / Karazewski Dolemite biopic that’s out in two weeks, and though I haven’t seen it & probably never will, is on the US remake of No Activity.

I watched Serenity last night to see if it was really as bad and batshit as the reviews I read said it was and it was actually worse if you can imagine. In a just world it would end the careers of everyone involved.
