GOTTA STAY FAI posted:Harmonquest Season 2 is amazingly disappointing, especially when compared to the first season. I think you stumbled upon the exact truth of the entire shooting of this show. I stopped listening to Harmontown about the time Dan and Erin got divorced, because he seemed to be in a nosedive he apparently hasn't pulled up from. Not sure if I can stand to watch this season at this point. About Gillian Jacobs, I will say that just sounds like her humor. Being a creepy gold digger is basically her entire character whenever she's on Comedy Bang Bang.

Joey Freshwater posted:Finished Manhunt, it was pretty good, though it ended a bit abruptly. I guess I don't know where else they would have gone with it. I was kind of disappointed when they start to get into the relationships of the three leads more deeply near the end of the season. I really don't care about the melodrama of poorly developed fictional relationships crumbling in this show about developing procedures for identifying serial killers. I just want more stuff about this trio of weirdos struggling to get their minds around murder.

Maybe this is the right place to post this? I just found out that RiffTrax has a channel on Twitch. I dunno if it's a temporary thing or not, but they're playing movies non-stop - not live commentary, btw.

He's in a normal relationship and spent some time doing the show in a studio without an audience. He's still a drunk kicky baby but the dark period seems to be mostly over.

I had a sleepless night a bit ago and ended up watching a bunch of found footage horror on Prime and Netflix and stumbled on a winner called Bad Ben. It's basically what if Sam's Choice Frank Reynolds bought a house to flip for profit and the house was haunted. It isn't scary beyond one jump scare midway through but it was enjoyable enough watching him yell at ghosts and be an unpleasant man. There's actually a trilogy but the second is a prequel and doesn't have not-Frank and as a result it's the weakest of the three.

On Hulu, Reaper is available. A guy has his soul sold to the devil by his parents so he must become a bounty hunter for the devil. It's funnier than it has any right to be but be warned: Season two ends on a massive cliffhanger that will never be resolved.

Mockumentaries give me blue balls because I want them to be true. That kid in American Vandal reminded me of too many people I hate. I wanted him in prison for 10 years whether he was guilty or not. (I didn't watch past ep1)

drat, Rocco is brutal. It might be the best porn doc ever made, imagine a way more hosed up documentary version of Shame. The stories are really tough though, I have no idea how the creators got the guy to openly talk about some of the things even his family doesn't know.

I haven't seen a lot of chatter about it anywhere, but I liked Godless so much, I thought I'd share. It's a bleak western, with an unsurprising plot, but they really go deep into the characters, and it's beautiful with great music and acting. I recommend trying it out for 2 episodes at least to see what you think, if you got the patience.

I can't wait for season 2 on Netflix, since I don't have cable. Although it's either still running new episodes or just ended, so we've probably got a long wait.

It's really good but everytime Jeff Daniels' character does his "I've seen how I die and this ain't it" speech I wish someone would shoot him in the face. And that's not a spoiler he says it every goddamn episode.

Ya know I've thought about that too, I got it for GoT this season, I had only seen up to season 3 before that, made for some excellent binging. I've watched vice principals, curb your enthusiasm, and some Mr show as well as a few of the movies. I was a bit surprised at how disappointing the movie selection is, although Logan was just added so that's on the list. I haven't started Westworld, which I'm definitely interested in, but after only a few months I'm pretty close to over it with HBO. Especially with the rumors of how long the next GoT season is going to take to shoot, I can't imagine watching it regularly enough over the next year-year and a half for it to be worth it.

I actually thought Westworld was incredibly overwrought, kinda dumb and took itself too seriously. I kept having flashes to Battlestar Galactica while watching it. It definitely has great production values and all the titties and stuff that goes along with an HBO show, but I still found it lacking. One of the reasons was I found it incredibly hard to suspend my disbelief pretty much at all times. People invent sentient humanlike AI's and house them in undying and undetectable human bodies and they use this for...the world's biggest theme park? Seeing more of the society that made THAT choice would be infinitely more interesting than the amusement park itself, but sadly we never get to leave the park and see the outside world. Overall I was disappointed, coming from one of Johnathan Nolan's other shows (Person of Interest which is good and has a lot of heart).
