John from Cincinnati Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Dollars to donuts he's on Bill Maher's show within two months so Bill can blow off some steam about cancel culture.

My last memory of him before this was Seth Meyers destroying Matthews last week for all the bullshit Matthews was saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given how far Maher has fallen in terms of his quality of delivery - his last ep of Real Time was as mush-mouthed as anything Matthews has done - he'd probably have Matthews on the show to make sure he looks good by comparison. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know anything about him besides the Last Week Tonight montage from Sunday, but he should have gone the full Howard Beale.

Craig H Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Finished season 1 of the Expanse. This shit is my jam! Man I love this series. It scratches all sorts of itches and makes me want to fire up Elite Dangerous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really makes you long for the days when he had such clarity of thought that he got schooled by Roddy Piper dropping trou. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the first season, and couldn't help but think that the show was on the wrong channel. It really should be a Netflix, Amazon Prime, HBO show. It feels like it should be the fantasy equivalent to a show like Banshee. The characters all seem to be saying and doing things in a way that seems unrealistic based on the limitations of Syfy. These people should be dropping f-bombs, fucking like rabbits, and the violence could be a stepped up as well. Now, they're saying fiddlesticks, dry humping like middleschoolers, and playing proverbial pattycake. I just felt like it was about 30% more toned down than it needed to be.

Approx. in season 3 (might have been earlier) they really dropped all boundaries, now it's the seven dirty words left and right (for example, the last episode had 10 f-bombs; after googling it that seems to be the limit that they got by Syfy), everybody fucking everybody etc. I assume that early one, they kept close the to books but over time got their own identity which is much more "vulgar".

I'll give it another shot then, but it still should have been a streaming series, but probably came out a year or so before Netflix and Amazon opened the cash spigot.

Kuetsar Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I tried the first two episode, but the main lead was such a dopey dipshit, I stopped watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 These curse word limits are so fucking pathetic. If you can say "fuck" or "shit" on the air does it really matter how many times it occurs?

Matt D Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Sad we're losing The Magicians. I'm not sure if it's my favorite show on TV but it's up there. We lost Killjoys too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think their only role now is no full frontal nudity. Adult Swim is the weirder one. There's other stuff that's not censored, but Rick and Morty is.

Thanks for reminding me that I really miss Banshee and would gladly pay a theoretical Cinemax streaming service $10 a month for a little while for a rewatch if such a thing existed. Come on Cinemax, it's 2020. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night i watched the episode where the Roci and Fred Johnson's people raid a space station and the Roci has to take on a stealth ship in the process. That whole episode was some harrowing shit. It was awesome. I probably gasped 2 or 3 times during it, especially at the very end with what Miller does after the scientist is done explaining what the protomolecule is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
