However, the mythology episodes were always pretty bad because there was never any plan and they were making it up as they went along. MOTW were always the stronger episodes of the X-Files and that's still true with the revival series. The problem is with the shorter run and the insistence of Chris Carter to inject mythology into them. That means fewer MOTW and more main plot-line that never made any sense and no one cares about. The reviews pretty much all say the new series is fairly strong, except for the opener. Apparently there's even a fairly good Chris Carter episode! To no one's surprise the Darin Morgan episode is supposed to be spectacular.

STAC Goat posted:Imposters S1 is now on Netflix. Watch it. One of my favorite shows last year. I also assume that means S2 is gonna drop soon, which makes me happy. I enjoyed it a lot, but if you're married to casting an Israeli actress with a shaky accent, don't make her background Pennsylvania farming country.

Drunk Driver Dad posted:Isn't The Bridge(the swedish one) supposed to be pretty good? I may give it a shot soon. Not sure if I'm digging The Frankenstein Chronicles or not yet. The characters and performances are good. The mysteries have the "everything is connected even when there is no point in it" and the killers being super geniuses problems you so often see.

hope and vaseline posted:I thought there was some kind of weird charm in that Prepon just couldn't keep it together most of the time. It sucks that Masterson is such a rapey creep that I can't really watch the show anymore because of it. Prepon was deeply involved in covering up Danny's financial assets the first time the allegations came out, and the strong rumour is that she was doing his brother when he was way underage as well. Finding it very weird how everybody likes Santa Clarita Diet now. When the first season came out I'm pretty sure it was just me and one other guy who liked it. I remember how everybody hated Drew Barrymore in particular.

What you do is cast someone to play Lorna, or alternatively upgrade Hilarie Burton, whose character is basically Lorna already, to main character status. I would love that, but she just had a baby, and after her One Tree Hill experience she's said she doesn't want to be a series regular again.

Escobarbarian posted:Catching up with The Last OG (on TBS, for future reference) and it had an obvious product placement bit.....for the show Greenleaf on OWN. Don’t think I’ve ever seen product placement for another show, especially one on a different network. Lucifer had several shots where promo posters for Supergirl were very prominently in shot. Of course they're both DC shows, but they were on different networks. I'd guess The Last OG and Greenleaf also have some corporate synergy going on?

The only thing that stops me orgasming instantly at the Good Omens show is that the book kind of died for me about a third of the way through. The first third is insanely brilliant and funny, and then the rest feels like something they knocked out over a weekend after discovering they didn't actually have any more plot or jokes. Hopefully the show fixes that problem though...

Rageaholic Monkey posted:Even if they cleared him, that still seems like believing the abuser and not the abused to me, and it's a real bad look for AMC to hire him back after he just caused all this controversy recently. Your concept of how the justice system works fascinates me. Tell us more please? Like, after an accuser is automatically believed, an apparently legit investigation has been ignored because you don't like result, and the accused has had to prove his innocence rather than the accuser having to prove guilt, then what happens?

esperterra posted:I can understand being super apprehensive about whether the investigation bore any real fruit, whether it's even possible to fully clear him after this much time, etc. But I just can't get behind the idea that people should instantly be punished/fired when accused of something, barring it being like a Cosby situation where a shitton of people come forward to corroborate claims or with their own stories of abuse. As far as I know it's been kind of back and forth with Hardwick even before this investigation, with people backing Dykstra's story and people, even former exes, coming forward to back Hardwick. Has anyone really backed Dykstra's story though? I admit I haven't followed the case super closely, but all I've seen is a couple of people on Twitter who backed her claims that Hardwick recommended against hiring her afterwards or something. I haven't seen anyone backing her other claims, and most(?) of his other exes have supported him.

Rageaholic Monkey posted:I want abusers, or even potential abusers in this case, to not be given a public platform. Seriously dude (or dudette), no offence intended but you're coming as not just a little bit unhinged on this whole topic. From everything you've posted you basically want everybody who is accused of anything, with absolutely no proof, blacklisted, publicly shamed and God knows what else. I'm all in favour of punishing the guilty, but without any due process it would be anarchy. Now you're even advocating for the accused to not be allowed to defend themselves...

But you're right, there are some good ones in the latter half despite that. It started great.

Wheat Loaf posted:Was season six or season seven the one where they kill off a Sidney Bristow lookalike in a cold open because Alias had just started and people had been talking her up as a better female action hero than Buffy? Season Seven started the first few episodes with montages of various people being chased and killed. One was a very obvious take-off of Run Lola Run and was even set in Germany. Alias also stole various aspects like the coloured wigs from there.

However part of me is really hoping for a lovely animatronic cat making bad jokes throughout the show. Given that Shipka was saying that she discovered during filming that she's allergic, it appears Salem will be a real cat. The rumour is that the talking will just be subtitles, not a voice.
