zoux posted:Buffy should've ended at season five. Buffy really should have ended after the fifth season and the sixth season was one of the worst seasons of television I've ever seen but they managed to get the show back on track and I thought the end of the seventh season was pretty good.

muscles like this? posted:You really just want to start with the miniseries and then go on to the regular series. You can pretty much ignore the movies as well as Caprica and or Blood and Chrome. I'd watch Razor in between seasons three and four (I think that's when it aired) but all the other stuff (the webisodes and the prequal movie) can be ignored.

Eezee posted:Just saw the trailer for Vince Gilligan's new show and I don't think it could be more generic if it tried. I hope it's just a lovely trailer, but I really expected that he would do something original. I doubt he had a shortage of job offers after Breaking Bad ended. It's got two strikes against it just for being on CBS. I'm going to watch the first episode but I'm not expecting much.

Just because a show is 30 minutes doesn't mean it has to be a comedy or a "dramedy".

I find it really interesting seeing which sitcoms from the 80s and 90s have held up. Both Seinfeld and Friends have aged really badly while shows like The Golden Girls and Roseanne are still perfectly watchable. Also, Beavis & Butthead is amazing and you should feel bad if you don't like it.

Humbug Scoolbus posted:Durst is the most amazing real-life monster. There are a couple scenes where the documentary crew leaves him hooked up to a mic while they are taking a break from the interview and the dude talks to himself and it is the creepiest thing. After the big reveal at the end of last week's episode I'm almost dreading what's going to happen when they confront him with the evidence they found.

DrVenkman posted:I know we talked about it briefly but for anyone who watched 'Going Clear', which is a sort of surface-level look at Scientology, not only should you check out the book - which is great - but Alec Baldwin just did a podcast with Lawrence Wright. I was surprised at how much stuff from the book got left out of the documentary. I wonder if it was just HBO lawyers afraid of lawsuits but I remember reading a bunch of interviews with Lawrence Wright when the book came out and he was emphatic that everything in the book had been researched to death.

NBC must be in the 'throw everything at the wall and see what sticks' phase of their network planning schedule:quote:NBC has resurrected Emerald City, the drama based on The Wizard of Oz that was previously given a straight-to-series order then scrapped before it commenced production. This go round, the network has greenlit ten episodes. David Schulner takes over as showrunner from Matthew Arnold and Josh Friedman. NBC has not announced when the series will premiere. That's David Schulner of Do No Harm fame. smg77 fucked around with this message at 18:56 on Apr 16, 2015 |

lelandjs posted:Controversial rating = more comments = more views to show advertisers. If they removed the grades, they'd probably lose ~40% of their site activity. I rarely see them give any episode lower than a B-/C+ so how much controversy can they be generating? I think the last episode that got an F was from Glee which was an easy shot to take.

On Comcast they disable the fast forward button for on demand stuff but you can reprogram your remote to enable a 30 second skip that works fine. We've had three different comcast boxes/remotes in the last 10 years and they all have this ability.
