LadyCrimson Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 I'm mildly curious what they're doing with the Flash series, but I think I'll wait until it's on Netflix and I can watch 1st season all in one go. My patience level for adTV can only handle 2-3 shows a year these days. Gave up on The 100. Definitely improving still, but just couldn't take it anymore. “Things are as they are.

JadedWolf Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Just finished watching season two of the Bridge (original, Swedish/Danish series). Wow, really didn't see that one coming. I liked the season but the ending was like having someone twist a knife in my stomach. Figuratively, of course. Still, ouch. Ouch. Ouch. Never attribute to malice that which can adequately be explained by incompetence.
Oerwinde Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 I'm really digging the Flash. Liking it more than Arrow now. Agents of SHIELD is probably my favorite show on network tv though. Pretty sure the city is Attilan. 1 The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
kgambit Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 My patience level for adTV can only handle 2-3 shows a year these days. My patience is even thinner. I have zero patience with ads ... that's why everything I watch I buy on DVD/blu ray. I simply can't stand the ads.
Zoraptor Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Last ep of Arrow was OK (well, if you don't mind the comic book logic of sending someone who is clearly insane off to become a government weapon), but the flashbacks have been a terrible drag so far this season. No doubt they'll lead up to something, but they're so slow. Both it and to a lesser extent Flash really need more focus or at least slightly less formulaic filler- though Flash has an excuse for that since it's just starting. OTOH Walking Dead is probably having my favourite season so far.
Hiro Protagonist Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Started watching Gotham and really enjoying it. Like all the comic book references. Surprised how much the little actress for Selina Kyle (Catwoman) looks so much like Michelle Pfeiffer. 1
Walsingham Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 I've been sick, lying in bed, so I've hit Netflix like a pop culture locust. 6 seasons of stargate, 3 seasons of House, and every feature film on there worth a damn except Robocop. I don't think my system could cope with my being enraged by Robocop. Stargate SG-1 is actually not bad, if you read between the lines it's got some interesting commentary about power, and the US government. Could definitely benefit from prettier aliens.

I like making fun of the clueless cat owners. “Things are as they are.

LadyCrimson Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 I feel like Supernatural is trying to finish up a lot of loose stuff and giving everyone some kind of potential closure outs. Maybe in case there isn't a ssn 11? Too bad I got into it so late...I'd like more seasons, although I'd be ok if there isn't any. It's been on a long time and maybe the stories should be over. I have my dvd's. Also: “Things are as they are.

Labadal Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 Watched the latest episode of Gotham and it was the worst one yet. It has had 2 good episodes so far.
Hiro Protagonist Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 Gotham's been brilliant and every episode has been great including the latest episode. Caught up with all the episodes with The Flash and so many comic book references as well. A comic book nerd's dream come true. The only DC show that hasn't been up to scratch is Constantine which is a shame. 1
Blarghagh Posted November 26, 2014 Posted November 26, 2014 Gotham started out really bad but I've quite warmed up to it. And it was nice to see Alfred kick butts with his gruff voice.
Hiro Protagonist Posted December 4, 2014 Posted December 4, 2014 Flash (Part 1) and Arrow (Part 2) crossover. So much awesome.
Gfted1 Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Pre-Superman Series 'Krypton' Being Developed For Syfy. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Oerwinde Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 I'm both interested and skeptical of Krypton. The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Volourn Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 I'd rather they focus on the father not the grandfather... It's too bad we already know the series ender. L0L spoiler alert: The world EXPLODES and the (not quite) last Kryptonian is sent to earth. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
Gfted1 Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 I wonder how many people escaped Krypton according to canon: Superman The three bad guys trapped in the dimension prison Supergirl Krypto Any more? "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
Blarghagh Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 Power girl? I'm not familiar with it anymore.
Amentep Posted December 9, 2014 Posted December 9, 2014 (edited) I wonder how many people escaped Krypton according to canon: Superman The three bad guys trapped in the dimension prison Supergirl Krypto Any more? Well Earth 1 you have (off the top of my head*) Kal-El (Superman) Kara Zor-El (Supergirl) All the residents of Kandor, the Bottle City (captured by Brainiac) Zod, Ursa, Jax-Ur, Non, Faora, and the remaining Phantom Zone Criminals Dev-Em Chris Kent (Zod's son) Karsta Wor-Ul *For the record I'm not carrying about pre/post-CRISIS and adding the additional earths are a headache (but honorable mention to Kal-L and Kara Zor-L, Superman and Power Girl of Earth 2) Edited December 9, 2014 by Amentep 1 I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
LadyCrimson Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Season 10 of Supernatural has been kind of a snoozer, after the first 2-3 episodes. Then again, it could partly be, as I told my husband, that "I love my Supernatural, but I like it a fair bit less watching it week to week..." Walking Dead started off great, then slowed the action pace down again...but the plot pacing has been a lot faster than typical. Stuff isn't dragged on and on forever, I mean. The half-season ender was ok, but wasn't a shocker to me. The show needs more Rick-time. And they can stop teasing us with Morgan and just get to it, already. “Things are as they are.

ManifestedISO Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 Awesome Tuesday is here. Flash, SHIELD, and Guardians tonight. Boom! 1 All Stop. On Screen.

After referring to their half brother still being I the box with Lucifer, I figured that would have become a major plotline, but nothing. Not even another mention.

Oerwinde Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 SHIELD was great. Skye and her dad's identities confirmed, show has superpowers now, lots of win. 2 The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
Gfted1 Posted December 10, 2014 Posted December 10, 2014 I really like the last episode of The Flash. Imo, its doing a great job of building upon each episode. The Flash/Arrow crossover was pretty cool too although I liked the second episode on the Arrow much less. I couldn't help but laugh every time Arrow busted out his Batman gravel voice, which he only uses when confronting mooks. "I'm your biggest fan, Ill follow you until you love me, Papa"
