Brian Fowler 12,954 Posted October 21, 2017 I found the first season of The Wire excruciatingly dull, tapped out half way through the season 2 premiere. Such an overrated bag of reheated cop show standard events. Ugh. And McNulty was just hateable in the bad way. That said, the first two seasons of The Sopranos is all-time great tv, and the rest is generally pretty good. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

J.T. 8,375 Posted October 24, 2017 The final season of Scandal is very fascinating if your political philosophy is somewhat liberal. Every episode is pretty much an Op Ed piece from Shonda with just enough trashy narrative to satisfy the masses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zimbra 1,684 Posted October 25, 2017 I really like the Wire, but I think it's a fair criticism that they focus the show too much on McNulty when he's by far the least interesting character, at least in the first season. His arc gets a bit better once he gets busted down and meets Bea. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CSC 2,365 Posted October 25, 2017 Holy Shit - Youtube Red is making a Karate Kid sequel called Cobra Kai starring Ralph Macchio and Billy Zabka. Quote “revolves around a down and out Johnny who, seeking redemption, reopens the infamous Cobra Kai dojo. It reignites his rivalry with a now-successful Daniel, who has been struggling to maintain balance in his life without the guidance of his mentor, Mr. Miyagi.” I don't need to pay for another streaming service, but man I need to see this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most underrated show on TV imo. The Anecdote was fantastic. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's slightly disingenuous of them to say that Spacey's harassment allegations was the impetus to cancel the program. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most of the time they bleep out the worst of the bad words and let some go. Then the networks run the shows uncut on demand. The number of f-bombs that Elliot drops in one episode of Mr. Robot is astounding. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
J.T. 8,375 Posted October 31, 2017 Wendy Williams had an overheating spell and fainted on live television. That is fucking scary.. I am doing my best not to laugh at the tasteless MK ULTRA~!, TOTAL RECALL / TWO WEEKS~!, and THE CUBANS HAVE SONIC WEAPONS~! jokes. It is hard because they are very funny and I am an idiot. Get well soon, Wendy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Get well soon, Wendy. This last month for Wendy has been quite...um..trying. Her husband buying his mistress a house, the photos on the beach, the back and forth with 50 Cent, getting caught hating on Angie Martinez for getting her own syndicated talk show, and now this. This is some really bad juju but if anyone has earned it maybe, it would be Wendy Williams. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
