I always thought that QuiBi episodes were too long. Probably why they failed.

I saw a new Lonely Island movie on the front page of Hulu, Self Reliance. Though it's not quite as good as the other Lonely Island movie on the front page of Hulu from a few years ago, Palm Springs, it was still a pretty good watch.

The first episode of Seinfeld I ever saw was on syndication on UPN and it was one of the clip shows. I eventually learned to love the show, but what a confusing introduction.

I like how each season finale from 3 onwards is written as a series finale, each worse than the last.

Arist posted:The actual series finale is one of the best episodes though??? And I don't love the Season 5 finale but it's a lot better than 4's. Probably. I just remember them all being kinda exhausting.

Because of Night Country, I've been rewatching True Detective S1. It still slaps, but little behind the camera interviews with Nic Pizzolatto makes me want to give that man a wedgie. What a pretentious dork. It's especially amplified by the much more sensible and interesting commentary from Cary Fukunaga.

I've rewatched Breaking Bad several times, but haven't gone back to Saul for more than a few clips. The slow burn nature of BCS works against it in that case.

pentyne posted:No the internet discourse is what got super weird. The show was fine but it made a lot of people online goes bugfuck insane. If you don't think the transition from space Lord of the Flies to humanity pleading their case to a celestial god that had previously crysalized a civiliation of 40 foot giants isn't "super weird" or "bugfuck insane", I don't know what to tell you.

Dessel posted:I'm starting 5th episode of Season 3 of the 100 which I've been marathoning while being ill. The show is stupid enough on a level for it to be watchable while being ill but still having hooks and plot. I'm definitely getting more of strenuous "haha fanfic/too handy a moment" laughs as the series progresses, it's corny but entertaining. I'm only going to comment on your face blindness. Murphy has nothing to do with the mountain exploding. Otherwise, enjoy the ride.

bull3964 posted:My parents, both in their 70s, recently got access to Hulu because I had to kick them off my Disney+ (account sharing measures). They were on Youtube TV, but decided to go all in on Hulu with LiveTV bundled with Disney to save some money. They started watching "Only Murders in the Building" and love it, but it's hilarious that they have both mentioned separately that "they could do without all the vulgar language." In my mind, "Only Murders..." is probably one of the more wholesome things that I regularly watch. Some of the F bombs could definitely be removed with no negative impact to the show. Shame on you, Selena Gomez.

zoux posted:Yeah, I had a similar thought w/r/t Invincible. People didn't like that they were getting "only" 8 episodes (split into two 4 episode seasons) but they were almost all 1+ hour long. Animated series are almost universally 24 minutes, and I haven't done the math on this, but in terms of raw content it's more like ~20 episodes of traditional cartoons. Now obviously this isn't the same, they aren't structured like 3 episodes in one, but in terms of man hours, they aren't making much less. On the other other hand, long episodes almost always feel like they're dragging. It might be a me problem, but if I see an episode of anything that's longer than an hour, it's guaranteed that it'll take me 2+ sittings to finish.

Arist posted:I get that feeling but also The Bear has "Fishes" which is a tour-de-force that absolutely wouldn't work if it wasn't a full hour. Yeah that's actually a good exception! I think one thing is that it was clear that it was a one off from the start. I'll watch a 1 hour episode if I'm "promised" a good ending, instead of it just being hour 5 in a 10 hour long movie.

Black Mirror kind of does by telling Netflix "Sorry, we only made 3 episodes. Is that enough?"

Medullah posted:I honestly wish The Good Place had only been one season, and I say that even though I enjoyed the show. It was just such a nice twist and climax. I really liked season 4 of Prison Break. The overall story was off the rails (for better or worse), but the first half of the season was basically repeated 40 minute heist movies, which I'm all for.
