That episode of Pen15 where Maya's mother talks about her past as a roadie for Stevie Wonder and how she often felt stuck between two cultures, btw, is the best single episode of television I think I've seen since "Episode 8."

Watched El Conde on Netflix, Argentinean black comedy imagining Pinochet (and redacted) as an elderly vampire. Loved it tbh, although I know I was missing some political context for some elements, like how the church was portrayed (but get the gist obviously).

Jordan s/t (Jordan), Monday, 5 February 2024 15:54 (one year ago)

I guess by some of those standards, Zoe Kravitz fits.

Josh in Chicago, Monday, 5 February 2024 16:17 (one year ago)

El Conde was great

lol at the spoiler text, though

Anyone else here watching Scavengers Reign? I'm two episodes in and finding it to be one of the most original sci-fi shows I've seen - nearest comparisons would be Fantastic Planet, Gandahar, and everything by Moebius

Elvis Telecom, Monday, 5 February 2024 18:49 (one year ago)

I watched Scavengers Reign - I think the show gets better and better the deeper into it you get. The first few eps are more about how odd the planet is, but it starts to cohere into a bigger story as it goes.

sctttnnnt (pgwp), Monday, 5 February 2024 18:57 (one year ago)

Ooh, good one, Elvis t

Virginia Wolfman (Ye Mad Puffin), Monday, 5 February 2024 19:01 (one year ago)

I'd add Nausicaa to the list of Scavengers Reign influences. I haven't finished it yet, though.

Selune Gomez (Leee), Monday, 5 February 2024 19:07 (one year ago)

I watched Scavengers Reign twice, it's amazing

Muad'Doob (Moodles), Monday, 5 February 2024 20:12 (one year ago)

Yeah, I absolutely loved it and have been telling everyone I know about it. Only one has taken my recommendation and he loved it as well.

Death and Other Details is falling into the treading water pacing trap.

I haven’t started this one yet and have been debating whether I should bother.

sctttnnnt (pgwp), Wednesday, 7 February 2024 04:49 (one year ago)

It's pretty to look at (if you enjoy the cinematography of Glass Onion) but the central mystery is lacking (even the show doesn't seem to care much) and the side stories don't make up for it.

papal hotwife (milo z), Wednesday, 7 February 2024 09:43 (one year ago)

what’s the machine in the kitchen on mr and mrs smith

i'm kinda tempted to watch Couple to Throuple on Peacock...don't mock me. also kinda tempted to watch Project Runway Junior! it must be winter. my brain is asleep. more than usual. (i've been watching the latest seasons of hell's kitchen and the amazing race on hulu. both great seasons! and the challenges are very challenging too. more high-stakes feel to both shows. which are fake and staged and edited to within an inch of their life but still thrilling sometimes miraculously!)

scott seward, Thursday, 8 February 2024 23:46 (one year ago)

Just finished watching The Night Agent, which was preposterously dumb. Like, if the Amazon Jack Ryan show starred a randomly selected teenager who'd been hit in the head by falling masonry, instead of the guy from The Office. Every single role was filled by asking "we can't afford that person, who can we get?" There's gonna be a second season, but I have zero interest.

find a torrent of the old Showtime series Polyamory: Married & Dating IMO

Peacock isn't going to make it nearly trashy enough to be fun

papal hotwife (milo z), Friday, 9 February 2024 00:04 (one year ago)

started on Deadloch and it's really good. An actually intriguing mystery with a shitload of excellent characters and local color.

Yeah, this was not the smartest show (though I’d still take it over the last two seasons of Jack Ryan).

sctttnnnt (pgwp), Friday, 9 February 2024 04:28 (one year ago)

Not surprised there will be a season 2. I'd never heard of it, but it was the most watched Netflix title (measured by hours watched) for the first half of 2023.

jaymc, Friday, 9 February 2024 04:44 (one year ago)

Or maybe I'd heard of it, but confused it with The Night Of.

jaymc, Friday, 9 February 2024 04:48 (one year ago)

omg Night Agent was the most smoothbrain shit i have watched in a while

and the lead reminded me SO MUCH of that squareheaded baker Jamie from GBBO season 10

Mr & Mrs Smith on Amazon Prime is very very good - lotta Atlanta alums for maximum good + weird vibes

werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 9 February 2024 04:59 (one year ago)

We just finished E2 of Mr & Mrs Smith. Very good so far. Still not going to pay Amazon an extra $2.99/mo to go ad free. They only has one set of ads before show started so that’s acceptable if they have to do ads.

that's not my post, Friday, 9 February 2024 05:04 (one year ago)

Yeah, I've watched three episodes of it now and only had one 15 second ad before episode 2 started. Don't know if that's how it should be or whether there's still teething problems with them implementing the new system.

And definitely some Atlanta vibes during the show itself.

groovypanda, Friday, 9 February 2024 12:32 (one year ago)

Just had my first 'ad' experience (I'm in the UK). Eh, annoying but not *too* intrusive. Bullshit ads, of course.

I would prefer not to. (Chinaski), Friday, 9 February 2024 13:36 (one year ago)

what’s the thing in their kitchen?!

LaMDA barry-stanners (||||||||), Friday, 9 February 2024 16:04 (one year ago)

if you really want to get your heart pumping watch Naga on Netflix. scary camels! such a cool movie.

Did anyone watch Fisk? Looks promising

that's not my post, Saturday, 10 February 2024 01:56 (one year ago)

Tokyo Vice came back for a second season; they posted the first two episodes and I watched both and...I'm out. The first season was pretty good, but this time it's slow and boring.

In better news, Warrior is now on Netflix, so any of you who haven't seen it should absolutely check it out. The first two seasons are better than the third, but they're all worth watching.

Tahuti Watches L&O:SVU Reruns Without His Ape (unperson), Tuesday, 13 February 2024 21:52 (one year ago)

I heartily reccomend Fisk if you like dry absurdity Aus comedy (cf Utopia, Rosehaven, Deadloch etc)!

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Wednesday, 14 February 2024 02:50 (one year ago)

But, I'm a big Kitty Flanagan stan, so.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Wednesday, 14 February 2024 02:50 (one year ago)

Thanks Trayce we loved Deadloch will give Fisk a try

that's not my post, Wednesday, 14 February 2024 02:54 (one year ago)

Dry absurd Aussie comedy is a yes

that's not my post, Wednesday, 14 February 2024 02:55 (one year ago)

First episode of Constellation has a “4 hours of story in a 10 hour package” vibe.

papal hotwife (milo z), Wednesday, 21 February 2024 04:17 (one year ago)

Criminal Record on Apple is entertaining so far. Peter Capaldi as a cop who is impeding cases and hiding something, and Cush Jumbo as a younger cop fighting against him who is also morally tainted. Finale is in a few days.

adam t. (abanana), Wednesday, 21 February 2024 18:02 (one year ago)

I'm enjoying Criminal Record but I am going to be REALLY pissed if the finale reveals that Capaldi is not as bad as he seems to be.

FreeVee might be going away?

https://consequence.net/2024/02/amazon-freevee-shutting-down/

Amazon has already said it isn't happening. However, if it did and they could collapse all the stuff on FreeVee back into Prime, even with their ads they might have the best across the board streaming catalogue.

AMC+ sucks for movies. I subbed because it was the same price as I was paying for Shudder anyway + Mad Men + Halt & Catch Fire but the two movies I’ve watched on there (Terminator, The Thing) are cable edited with cuts meant for commercials.

papal hotwife (milo z), Thursday, 22 February 2024 07:41 (one year ago)

I've been annoyed with various software issues on almost all the streaming services. Disney for a while, I think because they stream 7.1 audio, anything less, audio-wise, may be prone to weird pops and clicks. Amazon at various times has been prone to crashing a few minutes in; it might also be an audio thing. HBO, it's slow as hell, and lately for no apparent reason a few things we've watching have been massively magnified to a comical degree; you have to kind of quit and come back to it. I think part of the problem is that so many people are streaming these things so many different ways on so many different devices. "Smart" TVs, computers, tablets, phones, Apple, Google, Microsoft, etc., each of which seemingly decodes things differently. And at the same time, these services are so bare bones, and seemingly unwilling to spend the money for a consistently optimized experience.

Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 22 February 2024 13:50 (one year ago)

I love how disney (using the app + chromecast) takes about ten seconds to register a click on the 'go back ten seconds' button.

ledge, Thursday, 22 February 2024 14:13 (one year ago)

This is highly specific, but does anyone use a Fire Stick, and notice that the Home button doesn’t seem to work anymore? You have to keep pressing the Back button to back out of apps. This happens across different remotes, and I’ve tried troubleshooting (there’s a setting that is supposed to enable “Home button” if it’s not enabled), but no dice.

Amazon’s UI has taken the lead for being annoying as shit. Trying to scroll through options and everything has to expand and then start auto playing.

papal hotwife (milo z), Friday, 23 February 2024 00:27 (one year ago)

ugh hard agree, i hate it!!

werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 23 February 2024 02:26 (one year ago)

I hate all of the autoplay stuff, there's gotta be a plugin to kill that
