I really liked Eastbound and Down but I just couldn't get into Vice Principals. I'm a big fan of both guys but I thought it was really boring.

Dunno if it's on that vid but there's one where will ferrel keeps saying his line about 'plums' and it's *bleep* hilarious. Even Will couldn't stop himself from laughing.

Pedram wrote: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.

Rewatched it recently on Amazon Prime and its much better than I remembered. The series is much more anti-war than BOB was, it did a tremendous job on showing just how brutal the Americans were and the mental toll it took on the soldiers. Joe Mazello and Rami Malek were outstanding in it. BOB is better for me because I preferred the ensemble and it has stronger singular episodes but Pacific is not that far off from BOB's quality.

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

Spoiler:

Will Ferrell as Ric Flair ffs

the episode where Kenny goes to Will Ferrell's house and it's like a slavery plantation was ridiclous lmao

by Tomwin Lannister Sat Sep 10, 2016 9:31 am

What a goat show. Was super surprised when I tried it out given all that I had watched Danny McBride in before EBD was the awful "Your Highness".

Vice Principals isn't as raunchy and wild, given that it takes place at a school, but it's still pretty good.

Anybody watch the first episode of Atlanta?

Was decent

Second episode was amazing. Loved both episodes. Glover is special. Guy can do everything. Most multitalented guy since Jamie Foxx.

by El Gunner Sun Sep 11, 2016 4:06 pm

Pls, Glover is already a far better musician than Foxx ever was.

Because the Internet solidified that.

Jamie Foxx is a better comedian, singer and actor than Glover, so I don't know what you're saying "pls" to. Glover is a better writer and rapper.

Taking my compliments are turning it into something negative Proud

Nah I agree with you bruv.
Don't see why you separate singer, rapper and writer when I just put them into one category of 'musician'. Which Gambino is better at.

by Freeza Mon Sep 12, 2016 9:38 pm

Singing is a much different talent than rapping, which I tried to difference them. When talking about writing I'm mainly talking about his fictional stuff which I've loved so far. Rapping in my book always includes lyric writing:

Oscar Isaac, Timberlake and Gosling are also some Other multitalented ones. Love Oscar Isaacs singing to much. Really hope he does another music film soon.

2 new shows I'm going to try along with Atlanta:

Start Up

Miami - A desperate banker needs to conceal stolen money. A Haitian-American gang lord wants to go legit. A Cuban-American hacker has an idea that will revolutionize the very future of money itself. Forced to work together, they unwittingly create their version of the American dream - organized crime 2.0.

Stars: Martin Freeman, Adam Brody, Otmara Marrero, Edi Gathegi

Quarry

Quarry, a disillusioned Vietnam War vet, returns home to Memphis in 1972 only to find rejection and scrutiny at every step. A mysterious man known only as The Broker gives him an offer he can't refuse - to work for him as a hitman.

Stars: Logan Marshall-Green, Jodi Balfour, Peter Mullan

Blindspot with a massive start to the second season. I feel this season is going to be stronger than last

by M99 Sat Sep 17, 2016 10:27 pm

Stranger Things absolutely lives up to the hype. One of the best series I have watched this year.

by RealGunner Sun Sep 18, 2016 7:04 am

Definitely is. Can't wait for season 2

lol completely forgot that I still have to watch the finale of Stranger Things.

by M99 Sun Sep 18, 2016 6:21 pm

I watched six episodes so far. Should have believed my friends's and the internet's hype. I thought it would be an 80s nostalgic cheesefest like Kung Fury Laughing

Didn't expect it to be this good.
