bring back old gbs posted:The Shield is the only show I've ever watched that had an entire series arc that ended in a satisfying way and really really worked. You can plot that arc through every single season and while there were weird/low points it was always on track. I have never watched The Shield, but I have similar feelings about Justified. It was some fine execution of in-episode arcs, in season arcs, and series arcs. They took the Rock Star exit by leaving the people wanting more but leaving things nicely tidy at the end. It solidified Timothy Olyphant as a great actor in my eyes. Not to mention Natalia Zea is one of the best looking creatures this planet has to offer. JethroMcB posted:Riverdale is so great. My wife and I just killed the first season on Netflix over the course of about a week. We love this show and want more! This fills the trashy teen drama hole in my heart. I am now listening to all the Sex Archie podcasts. It is entertaining to listen to. I was a little weirded out to hear DivisionPost get name dropped in the fan presented theories podcast.

Walton Goggins is the common link there. He's one of the main cop guys in The Shield so its a funny juxtaposition. By the end I think Boyd had a better moral compass...

Apparently Prime doesn't have Season 4 of Korra, just FYI. A shame since that's one of the good seasons.

Bruceski posted:Former? I thought they just got slammed with actual real life paycheck work, not that they'd left the forum. That's true too, and they're not banned or anything (at least Ironicus isn't, don't know about Chip), but my extremely limited understanding is that Lowtax did a thing that pissed off Voidburger, and since she and Chip are together, well... EDIT: Yeah, it was blowback from the whole Shmorky fias-gently caress. That's all I'm at liberty to say at the moment, I don't want to derail this thread on it.

It's anime so you can fill in the blanks. I'm assuming it had a lot of big eyed gasps, speed lines and high pitched voices. Yup I'm pretty sure I nailed it.

Same here, Although he is currently called Jelly Jacobi chez moi due to new nerd I have to try the expanse, but I am not ashamed that I love cheesy campy TV. Have you seen Lost Girl? It's by the same creator. Season one is perfect but it does go down hill after lovretta leaves

So The Americans isn't all that far fetched.quote:US authorities secretly surveilled all the spies for years, bugging the Guryevs' house and even secretly searching it when they weren't around. The FBI told CNN's original series "Declassifed" that the Guryevs tried so hard to blend into American society that they didn't even speak Russian inside their own home.

The farfetched part of The Americans is not that they're spies, it's that they pull these high risk operations on like a weekly basis. And the wigs.

The farfetched part of The Americans is that Philip and Elizabeth look like Matthew Rhys and Keri Russell. "Richard Murphy" in that CNN article, meanwhile, looks like the default Create-a-Wrestler for WWE 2k18 Slavic Edition. (That photo of him dual wielding a cheeseburger and a Coors Light is a nice touch.)
