Kevin Can Wait has been canceled. Looks like their attempt to turn it into King of Queens 2.0 didn't pay off.

DrVenkman posted:Gervais is one of those people who think his 'edginess' is something to be lauded in the face of political correctness. And he's been poo poo ever since he stopped working with Merchant. Figured it was something like that. Still, even if he's poo poo now, still gets a lifetime pass from me for bringing Karl Pilkington into the spotlight. I still binge clips of the animated Ricky Gervais show from time to time and Karl is pure gold.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:How much longer is Criminal Minds gonna go on for now that most of the original cast is gone? I watch it every now and then because it's hilarious schlock. Though nothing can top the episode from a couple years ago where Kevin from the Office kills people because he believes he is descended from King Minos of Crete, the latest season ended with the team realizing that a CULT OF SERIAL KILLERS has infiltrated and taken over part of the FBI, and has kidnapped one of their team members. This show is amazingly bad and often insane.

Mu Zeta posted:It looks like The Expanse is really dead. They are taking the sets apart on Monday to sell off to the Star Trek Discovery team. Was the "only live ratings matter" thing mentioned anywhere before the cancellation? Because I know at least three households that would have watched live if we'd known. This being the 21st century I thought dvr was good enough.

The Expanse is absolutely hosed about distribution rights. Live is Syfy, international was Netflix, and US streaming is Amazon. With Syfy out of the picture, neither Netflix or Amazon would want to fund a show they didn't have global rights to. Alcon really deserves a ton of "WTF were you thinking here?" about the way they sold those rights. It never had a chance.

If it's on network/cable/etc TV and the channel doesn't have their own service just assume it needs live eyes imho

It really depends on the individual show's financial setup. NBC let Hannibal run as long as it did, for example, even allowing Fuller to indulge himself quite a bit more than anyone expected, because they paid a tiny-rear end licensing fee to Sony; all the financing came from Gaumont (and for the later seasons, Amazon, which paid for a bunch of the show by forking out a poo poo-ton for the streaming rights).

Or the one where James Van Der Beek from Dawson's Creek plays a cult leader. Man, that show is so very, very stupid, but at least it's gone some fun places with it in the past.

Holy poo poo - anyone else watch this Evil Genius show on Netflix about the BATSHIT INSANE AND loving TERRIFYING woman who was sorta kinda at the center of the whole "Pizza Bomber" thing, which I think is the only time in reality that a collar-bomb ever actually went off and actually (well, ultimately and more or less) wound up with the decapitation of the victim. It's a great documentary - it's only about ~3 hours long, split into 4 parts. It's tough not to "binge" because it fairly succinctly tells a fascinating story with plenty of twists and turns. But like with most things, the real life story surrounding that incredibly bizarre event is... so much stranger that it is truly difficult to wrap one's head around. Also, Marjorie Diehl might be the most terrifying individual that I am *so glad* I've never met. Like, watching this series I didn't feel SAFE from her in a weird way.

I realize that this isn't CD, but I've started seeing Awkwafina in everything now. First was Future Man, then some movie, now Ocean's 8. She's doing a lot more than those old youtube rap videos. I recently came to learn that Logan Paul was in the infamous "GAMERGATE and Order:SVU" episode. This really is the era of the youtube star.

I only know who Logan Paul is because one of my friends kept saying how one of our other friends looked like him. And then Paul like, licked a dead body or something. Anna Akana is a YouTuber who has started popping up in stuff. She's quite amusing.

The girl who played Rose in The Last Jedi was also primarily a YouTube actress before being cast in Star Wars. I think the only non-YouTube thing I'd seen her in prior to that was an episode of the Comedy Bang Bang TV show. Rhyno posted:I remember watching the pilot for Elementary and thinking it was crap because at the time Sherlock was new and hip and awesome and man is it incredible how hard I've flipped on that. Strange to think Elementary came out just after Sherlock finished season 2. If only Sherlock had stayed there.

It's pretty funny how IMDB lists Youtube videos as real TV shows now. Sorry, but a vlog isn't a real TV episode. Even if it's fake like lonelygirl.

Make no mistake, it's a procedural so it's gone on way too long, but the way it dealt with the character stuff, as well as the lore of Holmes, was always way ahead of whatever SHERLOCK was doing.

The last storyline I remember was one they did a few years ago where a mysterious serial killer is copying murders they'd solved in previous episodes, then he's revealed to be Mark Hamill.

Decisions on Timeless and Champions have yet to be made. Putting SVU in a new timeslot and having it follow two hours of comedy is a strange scheduling decision, but I suppose it's better than sending it to die on Friday nights like they did with the original.

I feel like shows like SVU are made for re-air on other networks, so who cares when the new shows are.
