What's on the idiot box... Part 3

Anyone watched The Musketeers Season 1 (BBC)? I haven't and wanted to get some feedback on what people thought.

I watched the first 3 episodes or so before giving up. It wasn't bad, just not really memorable.

 

 

Thanks.  Sounds like I either need to pass or wait for the price to drop some more.  :)

From Dusk till Dawn: The Series and The Strain. Both are pretty good and feature vampires who are actually monsters.

Sexy vampires or bust.

Santanico Pandemonium is hella sexy.

 

 

She is the hottest vampiress I have ever seen in any  TV series or movie   :sweat:

It feels weird, but also good, watching a whole season at once, six months after the finale. Beats the price of cable, anyway, sorta. 

 

Season Four, Walking Dead, ohmigosh wut no YES holy **** watch OUT WHAT that's her it's HIM turn around god! Great and clever dramatic irony, they played around with blocking the story perspectives and timelines. Could be the best cast of any season, tons of callbacks for items and characters. Relentlessly well-written, and the set dressing, exterior and interior, is just nuts how consistently believable it is. 

All Stop. On Screen.

What did you think of last season (Coven)?

 

I was a little disappointed, not as good as the previous two. But I did the enjoy seeing what happened to Jessica Lange. She deserved that fate, she was a nasty piece of work

I agree, it's very entertaining.  The opening theme is one of the best I've seen.

 

 

Now that it appears Netflix is wading into original Animated Series, they should tap that relationship with marvel and bust out a Nextwave series.

Amazon is getting into the act as well.  Five new series - here's one

 

Hand of God starring Ron Perlman and Dana Delany

 

"A morally corrupt judge suffers a breakdown and believes that God is speaking directly to him, compelling him onto a path of vigilante justice."

 

Right now you can watch the entire first episode for free (not sure how long that is going to hold)

(and no, Diego Maradona does not make a cameo appearance .....)

Not available in Canada. Prime is such a good deal in the US, but in Canada its a ripoff. US: $100 a year for free 2 day shipping, Amazon Instant, Kindle Lending Library, and Prime Music, in Canada its $80 a year for free 2 day shipping.

Yeah. You have to buy a LOT for that to be worth it. Especially since they built the fulfillment centre in Delta. So living in Surrey I often get things in 2-3 days when I pick free shipping.

The season of Bojack is well structured too. Finale ties up the arc of the season, while setting up the next season, but in a way that if there is no next season, nothing is left hanging. Its actually a pretty smart show despite its subject matter.

Bojack Horseman was amazing.  It started off as a pretty standard animated show with some good humor, but then the narrative really came into focus.  It was more than just funny, it was thought provoking and a bit melancholy.  It was brilliant.

Oh my ... yes, mmm, oh yeah ... soon, precious. 4K Blu-ray confirmed, coming late 2015. Media and players by Christmas then. Will need more time than that to actually get a 4K display, however, so, maybe early 2016 a 50" 4K UHDTV will be one large, maybe twelve hundo. Saving now.

Liked the season opener of SLEEPY HOLLOW last night.

 

They did their best to throw a swerve at the audience.

Agents of SHIELD was good. They even gave Absorbing Man his ball and chain. Lots of repercussions from last season. Poor Fitz.
