TV 19 - Simpsons Did It

[Kepler]

Slow Horses.

Only lasted 2/3rds through the pilot. Despite high recommendations everywhere and a great cast with Gary Oldman and Jonathan Pryce, it's tiresome, predictable, and awful. I'm sure it will sweep the Emmys.

White lotus season two does not disappoint so far

It is fantastic. Usually year two falls flat to year one. Not in this case.

Aubrey Plaza is awesome.

 

[Handyman]

Never watched Heroes.

It was good until it got renewed, then they had to adapt the finale to allow for a season two. It crashed and burned so hard it was epic.

They built the whole show to lead up to an epic Good vs. Evil confrontation not knowing if they would get a season 2. Then they got it so the fight lasted 2 seconds and that was it. For everyone I knew it went from "must watch" to "I quit" in about 30 seconds.

Aubrey Plaza is awesome.

Was she in Legion? I liked that character. Bizarrely, a woman who looks* and acts exactly like her is now one of my direct reports.

Edit: nm, Rachel Keller was the one who looks like my direct.

* Yeah, TBH it is kinda difficult to concentrate.

S2 of Slow Horses has begun with Gary Oldman. Go see it!

I started S1 (there's been 3) of Staged with Michael Sheen and David Tenant from BBC. British humor at its finest, and the episodes (I believe 6 per season) are only about 15 minutes each.

The funnest part of the show, and in some ways the most depressing is identifying the characters I most identify with. Boy is that enlightening.

I love how realistic it can be. Superhero movies are not for me, but this is a whole new level of realness. Mike white has a knack for this

I enjoyed Wednesday. I felt Jenna Ortega did a superb job.

She was brilliant. I could not have picked her out of a lineup before I started watching (might not be able to now as I assume her in character getup is different) but the girl knows how to project very well. I imagine Tim Burton had a lot to do with it as well.

 

[ScoobyDoo]

Started Wednesday last night. Phenomenal. Just love it.

By at least one order of magnitude, this is the most impressions I've had on a tweet.
