So has anyone, or is anyone, watching State of Affairs? I see ads for it on NBC but I don't know a single person who's watched an episode...

Is that the one with the blonde chick doing the La Femme Nikita pose? I saw that ad, too  edit: whoops, thinking of Covert Affairs. State of Affairs is a different show about a pretty blonde lady.

Another one saying that the second episode of State of Affairs was better than the first, but I'm holding off on calling it a good show just yet. Definitely on its way, though; this had a pretty bumpy road to the living room, so I'm expecting some more adjustments along the way.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiAOVoz1VRA Have you guys heard of WMAC Masters? I remember watching it as a child, thinking it the greatest show ever. As I watch it now, I wonder how this show even made it to a second season. God, it's so terrible, yet absolutely inadvertently hilarious.

Probably gonna be a "controversial" opinion, but all I have left of Twin Peaks (first time through) to watch is Fire Walk With Me and although I'm mostly impressed by TP, I love it, but I'm not in love with it as so many people seem to be.

It's not controversial, or at least it shouldn't be. Shows with intense followings tend to not be for everyone, and I don't mean that in the "fans are smarter than you" sense that is often implied. In fact, I find that many of the shows that I'm most passionate about -- Arrow / The Flash, Scandal, Person of Interest, Friday Night Lights, Banshee -- are saddled with massive barriers to entry, not necessarily flaws. (Respectively: Campy dialogue, seat-of-pants plotting, a seemingly odd lead performance, most of its second season, a chauvinistic streak a mile wide.) These qualities can really kick certain viewers in the nuts, but anyone who gets past them may find the rewards all the more special, prompting them to make a deeper connection and flip the gently caress out over the show whenever it's brought up in casual conversation. Basically it's like any romance: "perfect" is boring.

These qualities can really kick certain viewers in the nuts, but anyone who gets past them may find the rewards all the more special, prompting them to make a deeper connection and flip the gently caress out over the show whenever it's brought up in casual conversation. That being said I was more interested in TP due to the love it got and kinda wanted to see what the big fuss was about, especially with the upcoming revival. There's certainly plenty to love about it like how it's charming, oozes style, the characters are fun to watch, but there are things that I probably unfairly heap upon it, which is mostly due to the fact I didn't really watch a lot of late-80s to mid-late 90s TV (being born in '88 doesn't help). My image of that era of popular TV is like Twin Peaks and TNG/DS9 (did not watch Trek at all), and only TP and Farscape (if late 90s even counts on that), if we're talking about primetime, otherwise it was a lot of children's TV stuff that era was popular for instead, which is a whole other topic. Maybe I'm just more used to Lost-era style TV (and whatever we're in now, which is either post-Lost or post-post-Lost, who knows?), which is ironic because the people coming out of the 90s writing for DS9/TNG, etc. are still working now doing TV I absolutely love (big example would be Fuller); some of it is refinement of course but the parts of TP - particularly the writing - that sometimes frustrate me might just come from how I've internalized how serialized TV works now (since Lost more or less), how I typically analyze/criticize it, and how I want to write it someday. There are clearly parts that frustrate me like the lack of consistency (since apparently Lynch and Frost butted heads regarding TP more than a few times and it shows quite a bit) or just flat out plots that go to nowhere. Most egregious to me is the ensemble cast not really getting much to do, maybe when I'm used to current-era ensemble shows (even heavily serial) they are just planned and plotted differently from how Twin Peaks did it. Maybe I'll save it for the TP thread instead.

So out of rabid curiosity and my inherent desire to inflict pain and suffering towards myself, I watched Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever last night. It was somehow better and much, much worse than I thought it would be. The first third or so is actually a somewhat serviceable Christmas movie, complete with one of the better Santa-masquerading-as-a-mall-Santa (yeah, not gonna bother spoiler tagging) scenes that have been in a movie. After that, though, the movie devolves into an incredibly lazy ripoff of Home Alone. Aubrey Plaza puts absolutely zero effort into voicing the titular meme cat; I doubt that she did more than one take during the entire session. In a weird way, it almost works in the movie's favor, making scenes that Grumpy Cat is heavily featured in feel like they came from a mumblecore film. However, Grumpy Cat herself is a joke about Mondays away from simply being Garfield. GC:WCE is also guilty of mocking and complaining about things that everyone hates (crass commercialism, overly schmaltzy holiday films, and the expectations of the film's audience) and then turning around and doing exactly what they've complained about. When done correctly, this sort of dramatic irony and detachment works (some writers, like Phil Lord and Chris Miller, have made careers out of this sort of humor) but the writers of GC: WCE are not Lord and Miller; hell, they're not even Seltzer and Friedberg. But-and this is a bigger goodam but than Kim Kardiashians-I'll be damned if I didn't laugh a few more times than I thought I would, mostly at the two would-be dognappers who are written as modern versions of Bill and Ted and who have arguments about which Van Halen singer was better (Sammy Hagar or Gary Cherone) and unironically compare themselves to Kurt Cobain and "that bassist from Nirvana with the really long name". I would actually consider watching a spinoff about these two loser versions of Pete Wentz and, uh, generic vocalist guy. Then again, I voluntarily watched Grumpy Cat's Worst Christmas Ever, so my opinions on media are obviously completely hosed.

I put it on while I was playing a game last night and couldn't get past the pet store scene in the beginning. The scene felt like a mailed in version of the Eddie Murphy Dr. Doolittle movies and I didn't want to sit through 2 hours of it. Self-deprecating metahumor only works if the script is smart enough to allow it. Not that Lifetime would have cared one way or another. Congrats on the paycheck, Aubrey.

It sounds like they took a generic holiday film script and once they got the rights to use Grumpy Cat had the office's wacky internet guy who says "fail" a lot do punch-up to try and appeal to memelords.

Grumpy Cat is an actual deformed animal whose owners are rushing to exploit her as much as possible before she dies prematurely after a lifetime of suffering thanks to her hilariously adorable dwarfism. Also its real name is Tard but when they started to get famous they changed the name to Tartar Sauce and finally Grumpy Cat.
