What is up with that show Animals on HBO? If the show is going to look this bad should it at least also be funny? What is the point of this? How did it get made? why?

Would pay to watch a Trek series with Mads Mikkelsen slowly corrupting the ship's computer into an insane HAL kinda thing so it will kill crew members, which can then be turned into dinner. The replicator simply cannot get the spice right.

FetusSlapper posted:It isn't spice, it is the correct amount of adrenaline left in the bloodstream at the time of death. Hannibal likes it gamey. So the AI rigs up elaborate rube goldberg scenarios to illicit the maximum adrenaline response before death. I like it. AI just wants to make dad happy, but the has trouble relating to how robotic Space Hannibal is.

Escobarbarian posted:So when people say Gotham is good....what is 'good' exactly The actor who they got to play Penguin is pretty much the exact perfect guy. Nobody's going to recreate what Devito did with the character, so he doesn't go that direction and doesn't even try. It's a good, subservient, low-on-the-totem-pole portrayal but he always managed to carve out something for himself. And later on in the 2nd season (skip the first, honestly. Don't even bother.) he becomes good friends with proto-Riddler(just a schzophrenic GPD medical examiner right now) and the two just hang around Nygmas apartment singing showtunes. These two insane outlier weirdos lucked into finding eachother and everything about those two together is really good. Also Gordon just straight up kills people when it suits him, none of this "We need to be better than them." nonsense when you live in loving Gotham. The show has a bunch of problems but I watch for Penguin and Riddler.

Billions is certainly bad TV, but it fills the "sneaky bastard powerful people loving over other sneaky bastard powerful people" void that HoC failed to last season. I am ignorant of all the politics and finance involved so that probably helps. One thing I like about it is if Axe gets an idea in his head, no matter how outlandish or petty, he will have accomplished it by the end of the episode. It's serialized but a biiit procedural in that regard.

Y-Hat posted:I had no idea Bates Motel was coming back today until a few years ago. I know the Emmys are as conservative of an awards show as they come, but is it too much to ask to give nominations to Vera Farmiga and Freddie Highmore as Norma and Norman Bates, respectively? In the scattershot first two seasons, Vera going apeshit was always a highlight, and Freddie came to his own last season when they got rid of most of the vestigial teen romance plots. WE REPEAT, Bates Motel S4 STARTS TONIGHT Came here to post just that. It's such a creepy good show.

Limitless the TV show is so far beyond what I imagined it would be. I mean the movie was....fine. It was absolutely 100% a movie that was available to watch, that is about the most praise I have for it. It's not bad, it's not great, it exists. The show took an alright premise and really ran with it. The art direction is superb, the way they integrate his "NZT brain" or even his normal stoner brain into the visuals of the show so you can see the things his brain is churning through. All the actors are really good, even the lame FBI babysitter characters get fleshed out and you start to like them more and more. It's just so fun, I don't think anybody expected the show based on a flash in the pan Bradley Cooper movie to be their favourite show of the season.

Cardboard Box A posted:On the premiere night of Crowded, a show that depicts life in a multi-generational home, NBC decided that the ‘Pilot’ did not have enough random sex talk between daughters and their mom, parents smoking pot stashed by the daughters in the playroom, and granddad telling his son that “you love your children, you don’t like them.” No, the network went on to run a second show to give audiences a full hour of this stuff. Looks like we have a new toxx punishment

I'm surprised the MPAA has't managed to force camera companies to include firmware level piracy detection the way a lot of scanners, digital cameras, and photoshop wont open an image of US currency. So theatre film copies have weird flash frames every once in a while that would bricks cameras, or force phones into a "locked" mode you have to pay out the rear end to revert if the camera was pointing at the screen.

Sober posted:Within hours? Try having the episodes available like minutes after the first broadcast finishes. Yeah I download hour long dramas that air at 9pm at 10:02pm. Literally as soon as they finish airing they're uploaded. Scene members must have multiple cable boxes, real time H624 compression, and university network upload speeds. It's pretty impressive.

Sober posted:TD S1 might for some people retroactively be bad or just okay because S2 kinda just proved that he couldn't repeat the magic and maybe we made too many concessions at the time for a single writer/single director project to want to be a really good thing. Plus he had like 10 years to write the drat thing. Didn't the president of HBO say it was his fault the season was rushed out?

Give the new season a shot, I like what they did with him

I think there's The Thick of It, and In The Thick Of It, and one is a movie and one is a series based mostly on the movie but with some new characters and some old ones changed around. Malcom Tucker is eternal.
