I've never seen that show and I'm not really curious about it, but isn't it about a guy who starts a serial killing and is really good at that?
So either this prequel is about some slight psychopathic person, who hasn't really done anything big yet, or they retroactively make him a murderer way earlier.


On more positive serial murderer talk: You is comm8ng back soon.

It's about a guy who's been a sociopath forever and his dad convinced him to only serial kill bad guys. I think he was a teen for his first kill tho, so either it's going to be "Teen Dexter" or about a kid that tortures dogs

Well, the second version is certainly a character archetype I haven't seen as the protagonist on tv all that much.

I think "so good" is overselling it. It was pretty good for most of it, and ended kind of stupid. Which is miles better than the final season of regular Dexter, granted. But that's a low bar.

Look, it was good enough that I actually recommended it to people and they didn't get mad at me, so I consider that solid enough.

New Blood got us to subscribe to Showtime for a month to watch it, which let us watch Yellowjackets, so it was definitely overall a positive in my book!

DO YOU HEAR THAT? THAT'S THE SOUND OF ME PATTING MYSELF ON THE BACK.


So, Warner Bros Discovery is chasing FAST while Comcast decides, uhhh, maybe not.

https://www.engadget.com/peacock-stops-offering-its-free-tier-to-new-subscribers-195856662.html

They are nixing the free tier.

quote:

The free tier still exists but is only available to current users who cancel their Premium subscription or those who had access to one of the paid tiers for free — for example, Cox internet customers.

I'm not clear on if that means on CURRENT subscribers can access the free tier if they cancel or if it means anyone who has a paid sub can access free afterwards.

Discovery's putting a lot of money on doing a Disney Marvel ripoff, but I can't imagine that superheroes are still going to have the cultural dominance that they currently hold in half a decade from now.

Also lmfao, a Green Lantern show except it's set on Earth and is styled after True Detective is going to get a lot of people mad. I don't care one way or the other, but I don't think that's the popular appeal of the character.

Wonder Woman, but it's also Game Of Thrones!

Give it a few years, we'll have "Batman but Severance!" as well.

Edit: In other news, Amazon's adaptation of The Power is finally coming out.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ax1TJngN90w

Lowkey suspect it won't get renewed because it's taken so long to come out / all the expensive reshoots / Amazon seems to be struggling with it's YA female focused shows and might be getting out of that programming line. I dunno if they'll actually end up adapting the book either tbh, this ad suggests mayyybe but the tone seems a bit off. Seems more like they wanted a girl power version of The Boys.

For real, I am also thinking about the people in my parents neighborhood which is like 40% snowbirds and almost all of them have Netflix. Good luck talking them into buying two subscriptions or walking a 90 year old on the phone how to "unblock" their TV.

No idea what y'all are talking about, it was a hilarious at times because of how clownishly bad and hackneyed it was, same way the shittiest of Dexter was, and the miniseries is more shittiest Dexter.
