The Official Television Thread

I will walk on shards of glass to get the channel off of Fox.

You do know you can watch TV on your computer, right?

I stopped watching TV on the TV long ago because of the stupid commercials and because of the even more stupid dubbing on American movies and TV show. When watching on my computer, I can skip the commercials and sometimes (but not always) I can also disable the idiotic dubbing.

I'm guessing that Brian knows that what with some of that shit not being on network at present.

Diners drive in and dives and xena -really- narrows down his demo, for example. Speaking of 3D, most of those places went out of business this year. I'm trying to buy one right now. It won't work. They'll never agree to the terms their bank desires, lol. My guess is that it turns into a Cisco fuel yard.

I was talking about TV in general, not about any specific show. Nowadays the TV comes on the ethernet cable, it's controlled and broadcasted by a computer that streams it, which means you can watch it on your computer, if you know how. My TV playlist includes more than 500 channels but I have "extracted" only the most interesting.

I watch the Zoo and Veterinarian shows and the science shows.

I'm watching What We Do in the Shadows and, although I'm on the orgy episode, it took until just now for me to figure out that Laszlo sounded a bit familiar...









Well, that and Colin Robinson is also the Squat Cobbler guy from Better Call Saul.

I think this scene sums up Johnny Lawrence’s appeal pretty succinctly: deep down, he’s a badass wants to do right, but he’s constantly hampered by his toxic upbringing and the values it internalized in him, and the show doesn’t shy away from how much of a jackass he can be when he fucks up.

I've burned through the series that interest me and am waiting for a couple new seasons to start. In the meantime I am "watching" the menus for Netflix, Hulu, and various others in hope that something will jump out at me.

I need something to watch. <sob>

So, funny thing, I'm watching The Wonder Years on Hulu, and anyone who's familiar with the show knows it has a damn good classic rock soundtrack (great to the point where the massive issues involved in clearing it all is the big reason it took so long for it to come to DVD). But, surprisingly, the episode I'm currently watching, "Pottery Will Get You Nowhere," has an interesting plot thread that makes me really wish they broke the period immersion a bit and played something more contemporary: namely, the Dad being driven crazy by the fact that Mom's pottery class is disrupting their lives, with one specific issue: picking up a Pepsi at the store. Well, you probably know what's coming:

Seen so many shows since I last posted here, but I'm not going to list them.

Just to start with what I'm currently watching:

This morning, checking out the premiere of Debris.

Ran out of things to watch on Netflix, so I've been watching Sweet Magnolias.

Also been watching Wandavision; think there's just one episode left.

Been also watching Resident Alien.

Another good one I have been watching is Clarice.
