I wasn't really feeling Constantine so I might skip catching up on it since I'm in the middle of trying to catch up on a ton of shows. I just caught up with The 100, got Once Upon A Time taken care of a week ago, and after Arrow a couple of weeks ago I need to binge Flash for that crossover next week. I wasn't really feeling Constantine and even though I've enjoyed all these shows I'm really feeling an itch to watch a show that isn't about magic, superheroes, or spaceships. So maybe I'll just abandon it and wait to see if it gets renewed next season and catch up Netflix like I did with all of these shows. Seriously, I need to watch a cop show or something. I'm feeling really nerdy right now. It doesn't help that my queue is basically Fringe, Agents of Shield, Vampire Diaries, and Grimm. I swear there was a time I watched normal shows.

Constantine should take precedence over Once Upon a Time and Agents of Shield at the very least.

I've just about finished getting caught up on The Fall, and I don't know if there's ever been a tv show character before that's just made my skin crawl as much as Paul Spector.

Indeed, and not that I was particularly interested in it before, but this role has pretty much guaranteed I won't be seeing 50 shades. It's hard enough to watch that guy in anything else, but Sexy McHotguy will be impossible without serious creepy crawlies.

That's one of the things I appreciated the most about The Fall. Jamie Dornan is a handsome man, but the show never made his character sexy nor did it portray his scenes of violence in a sexually appealing way. And even though the audience spends half of the time following him as he goes about his day, I never felt like I was rooting for him or that the show wanted me to root for him even a little bit. He held my interest because he is interesting, but I want Stella to find him and end him.

Between this and the fact that the trailer was cut like a horror thriller I'm hoping that 50 Shades is going to be like the later Twilight movies where everyone involved is contemptuous of the source material and fans.

I'm sort of sad about the Constantine news As bad as it started, the last two episodes have been nice. I just got a question, has Gotham got any good, or is it still crap? I stopped watching since episode 8 because Barbara's stupidity is infuriating.

Tonight's Adventure Time was pretty goofy. It guest starred Billy West and he did a bunch of Futurama voices.

I've been working my way through The Good Wife (up to beginning of season 4), and I highly recommend it. It's a solid show that does a perfect balance between procedural and serialization. It avoids the worst excesses of both network and cable prestige TV, and it's got fantastic acting and both lovable and hateable characters (Michael J. Fox and Martha Plimpton in particular play slimy bastard lawyers wonderfully).

The Good Wife is legit one of the top five shows airing right now and set aside your anti CBS bias and check it out. It's streaming on Prime.

You catch up on True Detective, Fargo, and The Knick yet? AKA the best TV so far this year? Getting to the end of my Its Always Sunny marathon on netflix, looking for something else I could watch TVwise on it. Recommendations? Already eyeing Peaky Blinders (sp?).

It was a real gang. And the name makes sense when you realise why they're called that, and also that it was almost a century ago when my country was even more ridiculous.

What kind of rear end in a top hat network takes something shot in 24fps and just plays it at 25fps without any adjustments? FX Canada, that's who.

See also: everyone in the UK, forever and always. You thought the kids in Malcolm in the Middle had high pitched voices? You think the guys in Big Bang Theory talk quickly? Come over here and be prepared to never be able to watch those shows as they're broadcast.

Deadpool posted:The stuff on Gotham, what little I saw before I stopped watching, was really ridiculous. But if you ever need evidence that the people that watch TV do need to be talked down to at times then just watch an episode of The Walking Dead, which is a very very simple show, and take a look at the thread during and after that episode. Then you'll know why TV shows feel they need to talk down to their audiences. Now, I'm not recommending you actually go and read the thread, but if you ever want to know there's a good example for you. If you only come back for 1 episode, come back for the last one.
