So its looks extremely likely that Peacock isn't going to have a deal in place with either Roku or Amazon when they launch next week. No desire for Peacock myself, but this doesn't bode well for HBO Max striking anything soon either. Feel like this is going to get messy before it gets any easier and we'll all end up having to jostle between three different casting devices to access the different streaming services, to add an extra layer of annoyance to this whole thing.

ilplex ftw imo

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Thursday, 9 July 2020 23:37 (three years ago) link

the selection on ilplex is pretty thin and i've noticed a lot of lag when streaming anything longer than a tv episode. i would recommend instead taking a look at duvo, pipi, brodo, viddu, qlax, fifo, fofu, fafa, farfa, kalam, blamp!, loopo, tuvoid or bloopblorp.

Doctor Casino, Thursday, 9 July 2020 23:40 (three years ago) link

i find that pipi streams clearly

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Thursday, 9 July 2020 23:42 (three years ago) link

new on ilplex today is Cordon (with subtitles)

My pipi stream is yellow if I haven't enough to drink.

Hey, you know where to find that movie that none of the streaming services carry? Physical media, that's where. (affects lopsided smirk)

i have peacock through my cable provider/box. it’s ok. it’s split into three parts: “trending” (ugh) clips, channels, and on demand. the channels are all ad supported (even if you pay) and sorted by theme; there are ones devoted to THE OFFICE and SNL and HELL’S KITCHEN, as well as ones focused on reality show styles and spanish language programming. the LAW & ORDER selection has a lot of southerlyn and not enough kincaid.

i’ve also been watching the HK seasons that aren’t on peacock or hulu via crackle, which... is owned by chicken soup for the soul? sure.

oh, Cordon was on BBC4 about 5 years ago (yes, june 2015). i enjoyed it.

"In Flemish with English subtitles."

Speaking of subtitles, we watched Greyhound on Apple+ and had the subtitles on. They're very neat. Much clearer and less intrusive than Netflix ones, anyway.

I was looking for an 80s Japanese movie my wife wants to watch and found it second hand on laserdisc. I'm going all in on laserdisc, the vinyl of visual media.

hey i like Search Party. Who knew TBS still existed and were making a quality show? Did anyone ever watch this back in 2016? Heavy Veronica Mars vibes.

akm, Tuesday, 14 July 2020 22:46 (three years ago) link

I think it has a cult following because of Maeby from Arrested Development. Been meaning to watch that.
TBS has some interesting low/mid-tier shows that don't seem to be amazing but are entertaining to some extent or another (Angie Tribeca, The Last O.G., Miracle Workers, Final Space, and most recently Dress-Up Gang).

Nhex, Tuesday, 14 July 2020 22:54 (three years ago) link

i loved season one of search party and loved season two up to a certain point and then

sad to say, Search Party completely bellyflopped its last three episodes, wtf

I love search party. John Early is a Star.

dan selzer, Tuesday, 14 July 2020 23:39 (three years ago) link

one of my favourite shows ever. S3 is in the can. no idea why it hasn’t dropped yet.

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 00:13 (three years ago) link

it dropped three weeks ago

bat ain't Thad (sic), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 00:37 (three years ago) link

it's on hbo

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 01:06 (three years ago) link

Search party is amazing and john early's performance is tremendous

Temporary Erogenous Zone (jim in vancouver), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 01:44 (three years ago) link

I cooled on Search Party after season 2, but 3 is a return to form imo

Number None, Wednesday, 15 July 2020 06:55 (three years ago) link

well this thread spurred me to rewatch s1 on a binge, so i just did that. holds up! Will cycle through 2 shortly.

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 07:17 (three years ago) link

WHAT!?!?!

search party s3 is out???

that’s what i get for moving away from the country that invented hbo

Li'l Brexit (Tracer Hand), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 08:02 (three years ago) link

also they filmed s3 and 4 back to back which seems a particularly prescient move now

Number None, Wednesday, 15 July 2020 08:40 (three years ago) link

the last og is great! highly recommend all three seasons.

maura, Thursday, 16 July 2020 10:55 (three years ago) link

Rob Delaney's special "Jackie" on Prime is excellent standup, if you like standup.

akm, Friday, 17 July 2020 19:38 (three years ago) link

there’s a new paul hogan movie on prime and i guarantee it will exceed all your wildest expectations

even worse

THE LEFT (Autumn Almanac), Saturday, 18 July 2020 02:34 (three years ago) link

think of the worst thing that has ever happened and double it

THE LEFT (Autumn Almanac), Saturday, 18 July 2020 02:35 (three years ago) link

the premise is that hoges has fallen victim to ~~~~~~political correctness~~~~~~ and all his friends have abandoned him and the world has either turned on him or forgotten who he is (depending on which scene you’re watching)

THE LEFT (Autumn Almanac), Saturday, 18 July 2020 02:37 (three years ago) link

the Jason Reitman project “Home Movie:Princess Bride” made for Quibi is available on t0rrentz

info here if u are unfamiliar:

well worth watching if you are inclined, it’s really great & lots of fun. also more pleasant to watch on tv than phone but also i am old

Shit, did it?

4 or 5 then?

Crocodile Dundee 3? xps

it’s this whole semi-fictional reflection on the fact that nobody cares about crocodile dundee any more, and that somehow paul hogan is the victim of people not caring who he is or something

THE LEFT (Autumn Almanac), Saturday, 18 July 2020 11:17 (three years ago) link

Dundee 3 has both Jere Burns & Jonathan Banks for your pre-Breaking Bad needs.

Lol now HBO Max is losing all the Harry Potter films (which have their own section on the homepage). They're losing a whole bunch of other stuff, too, but gaining a bunch of random stuff as well, like the Nolan Batmans (that were promised at launch) and the Leprechaun series, which clearly means that HBO Max is being as carefully curated as the Criterion Channel.

Something I am curious about is the coming addition of "Idiocracy (Extended Version)." I wonder what this is? It's obvious the original version was cut to pieces by the studio. I wonder if this just restores those two or so deleted scenes that were on the DVD?

Josh in Chicago, Tuesday, 21 July 2020 13:23 (three years ago) link

"hyuck hyuck it just adds footage of America from the last 4 years hyuck hyuck"

Lady Antibody (Neanderthal), Tuesday, 21 July 2020 13:24 (three years ago) link

Seriously. At this point I'd prefer some aspects of Idiocracy to where we're at in the real world.

Yeah, I'd rather see Ass win 8 Academy Awards than Palm Springs.

Slim pickings this year, if they gave Ass a release (maybe at a drive-in in FL?) it would probably be on the ballot along with Trolls World Tour, The Invisible Man and Bad Boys for Life.

i've been watching + enjoying Close Enough on Max which is by the Regular Show guy and has a Manzoukas voiced char. i tried perry mason last night but it was dreary, depressing, and boring so i gave up v quickly. thinking about checking out the mcnamara doc. the looney tunes are clever + better than i would've expected based on most contemporary looney tunes projects. anything else tv-wise on the service i should look into?
