Watched 6 eps and retired. Main guy was one of the most annoying main character i've ever seen.

I like him so far hmm

Got some good humour going for him

From what little I remember about Lucy, it was ok but the main character was not nearly dark enough for me to hook me to a show called Lucifer.

If you're gonna have the lead character be the actual personification of Evil, the ruler of hell, he can't come across as an annoying comedy relief partner ffs.

Watch more episodes, first 3 or 4 episodes are mostly character introduction.

Anyway i'm currently watching The Americans, feeling disappointed after watching 8 episodes, i was hoping the show was more about spying and the cold war politics, but it's mostly about personal and romantic relations between couples.

I will try to finish season one and see how it goes from there.

Watch Vice Principals

by Firenze Wed Aug 31, 2016 5:11 pm

already am

watch eastbound and down if you're a fan of VP

by Kaladin Wed Aug 31, 2016 5:12 pm

Already did

by Tomwin Lannister Wed Aug 31, 2016 5:13 pm

VP is legit lmao, need more adult themed comedies and shows in general. Swearing makes it so much more relatable (Swear that's a word and chrome is chatting shit) in general too.

I always crease up watching TV when a character who's really angry says heck and stuff like that, takes me out of it.

by Firenze Wed Aug 31, 2016 5:16 pm

you seen eastbound and down Tom? legit think Kenny Powers might be your favorite TV character of all time if you haven't

by Tomwin Lannister Wed Aug 31, 2016 5:18 pm

Nah I actually haven't, went under the radar for me remember some lad I know talking about it.

Will run through it soon.

Have you seen the trailer of How To Get Away with Murder Season 3?

I am beginning to see what you mean

VP is great.

Walter Goggins is great, great with these flamboyant roles lol

and Gambi is like a more responsible Kenny Powers.

This is almost too bad to be true. Someone at FOX is really taking the piss rofl

FOX is teaming with Gail Berman and Joe Earley to develop “Camelot,” a TV series that reimagines the legendary stories of King Arthur in a police procedural.

When an ancient magic reawakens in modern-day Manhattan, a graffiti artist named Art must team with his best friend Lance and his ex-girlfriend and idealistic cop Gwen in order to realize his destiny and fight back against the evil forces that threaten the city.

Yes this is serious. FOX scored the drama in a competitive situation with a script plus penalty commitment. Dan Frey and Ru Sommer (“Bleeding Kansas”) created the project and will pen the script as well as executive produce alongside Berman and Earley.

Same thing with NBC and The Walking Dead.

One episode away from finishing Band of Brothers, will do so tomorrow.

What an incredible series, but it's so heavy and so intense. I'm glad I'm limiting myself to one episode per day, I don't want to do anything after watching "Why We Fight". I'm never quite sure how to accept that this series is based on the reality of World War II and isn't from the mind of some twisted pos

What a disgusting war. Humans are truly despicable

by Pedram Sun Sep 04, 2016 5:52 am

You guys should watch The Pacific after finishing BoB, not as good as BoB, the story isn't focused on a single unit or division like the Easy Company but it's darker and more depressing and it's really good at showing the brutality of war.

by CBarca Mon Sep 05, 2016 6:38 pm

I'll try and get to it someday. School is starting up so I'm likely to have to wait until December to get back to any shows (well, given my track record so far).

by Freeza Tue Sep 06, 2016 2:15 pm

Watched 3 episodes of Stranfer Things now. The fact that the main teen actress is anorexic really bothers me. Great kids though. Especially the bald boy who is apparently a girl. The Down syndrome kid is also fun.

by RealGunner Tue Sep 06, 2016 2:21 pm

Yea those kids have a bright future. The geeky toothless kid was the most impressive.

by Tomwin Lannister Wed Sep 07, 2016 4:49 am

@Firenze you weren't wrong about Kenny Powers lmao

Related to everything he said, binged the hell out of eastbound & down was in stitches for half of it.

Still can't stop laughing at Stevie

Donald Glover is a genius imo. Atlanta is great and it just feels so real. Keith Stanfield is absolutely incredible. Funniest character all year.

by El Gunner Wed Sep 07, 2016 3:00 pm

Think I'm also gonna do Atlanta coz a mate of mine also just mentioned that he was gonna watch it now
