Ravane posted:The walking dead is back tonight. In just two short years my friends have gone from posting about that show nonstop on facebook to, well, me not hearing about it even coming back tonight until I read your post. Last season actually ended really strong though so I'm now kinda pumped to catch the rerun.

What the gently caress, CSI does an ebola episode? I thought they shot the seasons way before air, the ebola being a big deal thing is 6-8 weeks old at max. What did they know that we don't?

smg77 posted:Is this really something you believe? The "westerners getting infected" was August. It wasn't a American network news story at a comparable level before that. To be honest I don't think most CSI viewers probably wouldn't have known about it until August. It wasn't until the American victims were being flown back to the US to get treatment that the US news world exploded the story and the GOP took the chance to hammer Obama for letting them into the country and suddenly ebola was a popular news story.

I guess we can be happy that the writers of CSI look beyond network news and freerepublic.com to keep up on current events.

Everyone on Mulaney is apparently incapable of acting without mugging for the camera or repeating their lines like a punchline of a joke, and only Martin Short pulls it off. edit: Also it could not be ripping off Seinfeld harder unless it had a character that entered the apartment funnily.

Fox gave Gotham a full 22 order. Maybe they can figure out how to make a good show before the season is out.

What are the normal people who don't post on this board saying about it. I was reading the comments on the Flash premier on toplessrobot and some dudes were like "gently caress the Flash, I'm not gonna waste my time on this garbage when I can be watching GOTHAM".

My 65 year old father enjoys it, but he thought Smallville was good and doesn't watch Arrow or Flash. NCIS is his favorite show.

Aphrodite posted:You don't want any silly gimmicks in your superhero show. Well part of the problem with the show is that it has ridiculously silly stuff one moment and then in the next scene it wants to have gritty crime drama stuff. If it wanted to be Batman '66 I'd be on board. That's the best live action superhero show ever made. I have no problem with camp at all. But bad camp one minute doesn't mix with gritty realism the next very well. And that's not even getting into the atrocious dialogue.

If you can't get behind balloon murder, I don't know what to tell you.

zoux posted:Is it still bad? It's basically just like the pilot, if you saw that. Still has pretty bad writing and tone issues, but some people are enjoying the campiness of it. I'm giving it a few more episodes to see where it goes and if it finally picks between Burton and Nolan instead of being a weird mismatch of the two, but so far Penguin is basically the only fun/interesting character to me. e: Balloon murder exemplifies exactly what Deadpool was talking about though. It was a goofy as gently caress villain that would've fit into 60's Batman, but then everyone else on the show spends the whole episode talking about what a serious problem he is and how he's a cop killer, and it just doesn't match at all.

Hugh Laurie's book is really good. It's basically a crime novel starring himself. IIRC how it worked out is that he was originally writing something explicitly about himself but decided his life was too boring and spiced it up.

Sober posted:The third episode was actually good, no schizophrenic pacing or anything. I kinda liked the balloon dude essentially jump-starting young Bruce Wayne's desire for vigilantism but at the end of the day I'm sure most people will just watch it and see "well goofy balloon murder, it played out like a cop procedural", which is not entirely false either, since I'm sure nearly everyone in here hates cop procedurals. I liked it too, but Deadpool isn't wrong in that the show has some weird tonal issues. Balloon murder is a goofy comic book hero thing, but the show also heavily plays up the gritty cop drama police corruption/brutality angle. I mean, it makes sense given who Gordon becomes, but I can see how its not for everyone. But I like NCIS (not so much the last season and this one so far) so procedural junk doesn't bother me.
