Stennick Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Yeah I think I have 70 tv shows on my computer I'm watching or I want to start watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 You know how people are with The Wire? Always recommending it to friends and saying how it's the best show ever? I'm a bit like that with Hannibal. I'm also constantly hyping up Almost Human because of the special place in my heart I have for unapologetic Blade Runner rip offs. (Like they even had the exact same giant ad with the Asian woman one week!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVA Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 ORPHAN BLACK is a very entertaining show with an insanely talented performer at the center, but it's not essential viewing. If it wasn't for Tatiana Maslany giving such a preposterous, incredible 12-in-1 performance, it would be regarded as roughly on par with a Syfy Original. I give zero fucks about any of the mythology stuff. Just give me more of Maslany playing a clone playing another clone who's playing another clone.

Craig H Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 This past Sunday's Veep may have been the best ever. Soooo good. Also, the back and forth over the pronunciation of the name "Craig" perfectly sums up every time someone has butchered the pronunciation of my name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randy Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 The police woman on Fargo is a good cop, but I can't imagine acting like that at work. She is insubordinate every day to her superior's direct orders. That's not how an employee should behave! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 The Almost Human thing is weird because places like EW said it was getting renewed. It was also doing better ratings than The Following and most other Fox shows. Oh, well. Here's hoping Fox never do another sci-fi show I end up getting invested in.

Reed Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 And if Hannibal gets cancelled...well, I probably won't be posting on here anymore because my keyboard will be drowned in tears. It's very hard to type in that case from what I understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reed Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I have to think Hannibal will get picked up somewhere even if NBC cancel on it. When you're widely considered to be one of the best shows ever made...SOMEONE has to pick you up. I mean, come on. Netflix gave the The Killing an extra season and no one cared about that.

blitzkrieg Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Esquire has shown me that I apparently should have been watching Craig Ferguson's show anytime he had an attractive female celeb on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like those 24 minutes rendered the entire season of SILICON VALLEY superfluous. Oh, for sure. I'm still cracking up over the "Craig" joke. For the record, it should just be Craig, like, Greg, but with a C. Jonah has been the best, though. Him getting fired has upped his insanity by 1000%.

J.T. Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Where will Doctor Who guests go now when they plug stuff in America? They can stay in the UK because civilized Americans with proper cable television packages will just watch them on Graham Norton's talk show on BBC America. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odessasteps Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 But Ferguson flirting with Karen Gillan and Jenna Coleman is not the same as Graham flirting with David Tennant and Matt Smith. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 That's really shitty news about Almost Human, and just further reinforces my "wait two seasons before I invest" rule. I legit got interested in this show, watched it every week, and now I feel like my time has been wasted. It never fails. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 What bothers me is that it actually had good ratings. It was doing better than most things on Fox. Something getting canceled because it does terribly? Sure, it's sad, but I understand. But now they cancel stuff that does well too. Infuriating.

My only guess is that it cost too much to make and they weren't making enough in ad revenue to off set that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 That's the most likely reason, unless there was some big internal shake-up with the executives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pgi86 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I'd been meaning to check it out since it first came out but just finally got around to watching it and holy crap Netflix's Orange is the New Black is tremendous. Great mix of drama and comedy. The 2nd season can't come soon enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
