I like that whoever marked out their last name, but you could still find it easily by going to their twitter account which they didn't mark out.

There was an article I read about 2 guys who snuck into the Super Bowl. They had declined to give their names so they don't get in trouble. But it included embeds from one's twitter feed where his account is @lastnamefirstname.

Yet another in netflix's continuing line of awful show names that convey little to nothing of what the show is.


Good show though.

Netflix's model doesn't really need to do that, so they can go for jokier titles.

From what I've read, Netflix pays upfront actually.

Yeah, you're thinking of Maveth; Season 3 Episode 10.

Honestly feels like a lifetime ago at this point. This show crams so much stuff into its running time and arcs, it's loving crazy.

They found a book.

I think the common theme here with the complaints about the Netflix Marvel shows is that all of them could have used more time in the oven. I think they're trying to get them out too fast.

I don't know, the one with the shortest development time has been the best one so far.

I really doubt Jessica Jones is the first show to deal with abuse. It's just the first one that starts with a comic book logo that draws viewers in.

So X-files is still on Netflix for me. Does the Canadian service keep it, or is it going away at midnight tonight or something?

Most TV shows are going to have different license holders in the US and Canada, since not a whole lot operate in both countries.

I just watched season 2 of Fargo, what where the criticisms over the finale? I thought it fit the tone of the season wonderfully.

The only one I know for sure is that people thought the Hanzee thing was too much of a reach just to link the seasons up.

Pro doesn't rhyme with con though. I mean yeah it makes more sense, but it doesn't rhyme.

Maybe you meant alliteration? Bakers/Fakers and Help/Yelp also have alliteration, but pro/con do not. So I'm not sure what combination of rhyming or not would actually fit your weird problem with the name of the show. My problem with it is that it's a dumb show.

It's called assonance or consonance when it's not the first letter.
