Johnny Sorrow Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Ok, so I'd heard some good things about The Goldbergs but nothing to entice me to watch it. Then they did that Deadhead episode last week and of course I had to check it out. I'm fully down the rabbit hole. This show is delightful. It's pretty much my Wonder Years, since I'm 46 and Philly was my city. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Dammit, they need to get those on TBS and Adult Swim. Seems like they play the same ten episodes every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 So, Holy Fuck on Samurai Jack.. Spoiler Jack has had his first encounter with the Daughters of Aku and he killed one of the sisters before escaping their ambush. She represents the first actual person whose life Jack has taken since this whole thing has started. It was kinda awesome how the show took the running TV-Y7 For Cartoon Violence joke about how Aku only sends robots out to kill Jack so he's never shed a drop of human blood despite wielding a magical katana and turned it into something very serious. It is pretty jarring how this particular episode started off very light hearted and eventually came crashing down around your skull. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I am very happy with the very tight narrative of 24: Legacy. I love Joe Morton as the comic book super villain in Scandal, but Shonda's writing is infuriating. She throws blatant red herrings into the story because apparently she hates people figuring things out and this is the second time in a row where she's depended on the "Who Shot JR?" trope to carry one of her plots to the finish line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 I really like Scandal when it sticks to the Washington fixer/political intrigue. Last season was easily my favorite since the first season and I might have liked it even more than S1. I want to check out whenever it veers too heavily into the wacky black ops stuff. I like Joe Morton a lot, but the storyline gets pretty far out there whenever they give him too much to do. Also, Jake and - especially - Huck are good guys because... because. There's literally no other reason they're sympathetic. Especially Huck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked some of the early Samurai Jack's but kind of fell out at some point in the series. This mini series has been pretty great so far, I think the fact that they have a limited run allow them to up the production like the original pilot. Thanks for pointing out who Scaramouch was based on, I was trying to think if it was some lounge act or something then made me think sort of Billy Crystal but then realizing that Billy did Sammy. It was kind of bugging me. The tomb scene seemed heavily inspired by The Good, The Bad and the Ugly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BP) Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Milch will dictate the whole thing to Pizolatto while laying in a pile of old racetrack programs and it'll be infinitely better than season 2. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for us to get a copy of the show, i had to trade a guy on rec.arts.tv MST3k KTMA episodes for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
