Though I intended to sit down and watch the pilot for Utopia on Fox, I accidentally acquired a UK series by the same name. I figured what the hell, I'll try it anyway.

What. The. gently caress.

Has anyone seen this show? That was some crazy poo poo. Do yourself a favor and watch this pilot, and go in knowing absolutely nothing about it, like I just did, because I don't like feeling this way alone. That poo poo was off the wall bananas. Like, some hosed up poo poo.

Please, tell me someone in this thread has seen this show, and if so, should I keep watching it?
Not by mistake, but I experienced the same thing as you just yesterday:

I'm sure they're going to walk back that ending because there's no way they're killing Mike.

One thing I found goofy about the season as a whole was you could always tell when they were in Mexico because everything was tinted yellow.

I'm looking forward to bingeing on it this weekend. I have to get myself in the right state of mind for the amount of crazy that show appears to bring.

The first 2 minutes alone sold me on the whole show, and Wilson Wilson with the chilis, etc - I literally noticed my mouth was agape at the end of that scene. Why hasn't this show been talked about more in this thread? Or has it, and I've just glossed over it?

In the fall/winter he keeps hair om his head for warmth and he always keeps his poofy tail because it amuses me. Otherwise he gets shaved close except in the winter when it's a little longer, also for warmth.

I hope this is kosher to post here.

I work at a university library and help stage the exhibits. Last spring we held an exhibit on 10 cult TV series, the idea being that sometimes you can become so obsessed a TV show that you want to immerse yourself in that world, and you find yourself wanting to learn about that world as much as you can. Maybe you go so far as to try to pick research topics in your classes that you can somehow tie back to the show you love, just because you can't get it out of your head and want to put your interest to good use.

Or maybe you want help writing fanfiction about it. Whatever, the library is here to help without judgement.

http://www.darkhorizons.com/news/33850/-married-with-children-gets-a-spinoff

quote:

Almost two decades after it wrapped, the world of classic sitcom "Married... with Children" is coming back to television. Sony Pictures Television is reportedly developing a spinoff to the Fox series which would follow David Faustino's now grown up Bud Bundy.

E! News reports that no network deal is in place as yet as pitch meetings are only just beginning.

It's unclear which other castmembers would be involved in the potential spinoff, or who would be writing and producing the follow-up.

The news comes as Warner Bros. TV is shopping around a revival of another classic sitcom, "Full House," which is also expected to include some original cast members.

What's funny is that they actually did something like this for Faustino's web series Star-ving, which I'm deeply ashamed to have laughed at when I first saw it. I swear one of those episodes was about a Married... With Children reunion special going to hell but drat if I'm going to check.

If you're curious you can watch the entire series here. If you stick around long enough you'll get to see Alan Thicke cursing out Faustino and Corin Nemec, but it's really not worth it.

Double-posting because it warrants its own post. Some choice synopses from Star-ving:

Episode 2, "Gilbert's Kid": Dave kills Sparky, Gilbert Gottfried's 34 year old retard son.

Episode 4, "Married With Children Movie": Dave is screwed out of the role of Bud Bundy by Seth Green.

Episode 5, "The Scheize Flick": Dave passes out on the set of a German scat film & wakes up covered in sh*t.

Episode 9, "El Al-Qaeda": After a round of S&M, Dave spits in Osama bin Laden's face.

Episode 11, "Just One Drink": Dave jerks off to his cleaning lady's corpse.

As you can see, this one's a winner.

DC just announced yet another TV series. This time, it's a (Teen) Titans pilot for TNT.

Akiva Goldsman has a really bad track record, but he also did Fringe so maybe things will turn out alright?

Too early to think much about it, but I wonder how it'll go if they put it in the same continuity as Arrow/The Flash. Deathstroke was the main archvillain of the 80s Titans and was prominent in the 2000s cartoon too. Would they bring in Manu Bennett for this show too?

Other TNT news is that the plan to turn perennial cable movie fodder "Shooter" into a TV series. The movie starred Mark Wahlberg as Bob Lee Swagger, a retired Marine sniper who gets framed for an assassination attempt. It was an okay movie that was mostly notable for the epic amount of people Marky Mark kills in it.

Sam Henry Kass, one of the people responsible for this, wrote and directed one of my favorite 90s comedies, but the fact that this Starving show stars David Faustino stops me from checking it out. I'd probably like it if it starred anyone but him.
