TV 19 - Simpsons Did It

[ScoobyDoo]

She-Hulk is getting review bombed. The same thing that happened to Star Wars is going to happen to Marvel. Pretty soon we won't be getting anything.

Rewatching Futurama with my wife who had never seen it. Just wrapped up S4. It's a masterpiece.

I've still somehow only seen about 6 episodes. It doesn't help that Dr. Mrs. isn't into it.

There's a marked change in season 4. It turns from funny animated show to something wholly different. Though, I still think you need to watch the entirety of the original run to get the full impact.

I intend to watch the entire thing in order. I did that with Bojack and was handsomely rewarded (even though the finale was awful).

If that is how the fanboys act, then they deserve nothing.

I swear I'm not even joking to be a jerk, I completely forgot that happened.

I don’t recall that story at all. And I live here.

Somebody set off something at the finish line on Boylston and a couple people died and somebody lost a limb. It was the #neveragain lawn chair but it was Boston so we had to endure their wailing and now they have those pathetic Citi Connect jerseys.

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic. I remember the bombing of course. My office is three blocks from the finish line. I don’t recall the triple murder that the show was about. I thought that’s what you were referencing as well.

I was talking about little brother syndrome.

Power through that first season, because as with most shows, it was still feeling things out with only hints of the greatness to come. Season two it starts coming into its own, and then seasons three and four are where the iconic episodes reside including the aforementioned original series finale

After that, the comedy central seasons are up and down, but have their moments.

Should we warn him about "the dog" or just let that train hit him at full steam?

 

[Kepler]

No goddamn spoilers :-(

I don’t even watch that show and I know about that episode. I don’t think I could watch that

Weird...Marvel stuff usually avoids that. I am guessing the disasterous trailer that was almost universally panned got the basement dwellers out in full force.

What is sad is this is nothing new, people just seem upset now because it is happening to a Di$ney property. Almost every other studio has had to deal with this crap (as have reviewers on rottentomatoes) and no one bats an eye. The sense of entitlement from fandom is out of control.

(it is also happening in "normal" films too)

 

[ScoobyDoo]

FWIW, I like the She-Hulk show. Ms. Marvel is ok, but it's Spiderman redo. This had got a little "different" to it. The CGI and Special Effects seem to be cleaned up from the original trailer as well. But, I think the review bombing may kill it all. It certainly killed a lot of the Star Wars tracks.

I think this is spot on. The original run has all the best episodes. The movie season has some good lines and what not. And then the later seasons have a few episodes I thought were very good (Late Phillip J Fry, Prisoner of Benda, and clockwork Origin are good, Benderama and Overclockwise I think are pretty good too). But they are mostly just ok) And the 2nd finale, Meanwhile, was perfect especially when it went right into Space Pilot 3000 with no commercials between.

I skip "the episode that shall not be mentioned" on most rewatches but will power through it on occasion as it does have some hilarious lines.

Star Wars sucked though because the people in charge had no clue what's to take it. If you have no vision it is gonna crash and burn.

 

[Kepler]

As the franchise drags on we'll see a much wider range as they get farther from canon (and from people who know/care about the material). We'll get a handful of gems like Guardians, Wanda Vision, and Loki. And then tons of unwatchable dreck that's even worse than the slick, formulaic stuff from Avengers, Thor, and Spidey.

It's exactly what happened with the Universal horror franchise from the 20s through 50s. We will eventually get Abbott and Costello Meet Captain America (Ant Man is actually pretty close).

I do not like superhero crap or much of the comic book variety, but I like the Sandman so far. Then again, Gaiman is a fantastic writer

It's had some moments but has pretty much been set-up thus far. We'll keep watching though because this is the first one my wife has wanted to watch; she's also a 6 foot tall female lawyer so they have that in common.
