Finished Witcher, dug that they got there.
Started Warrior Nun, dunno if I’ll stick. Random teenage girl gets super powers from God; not much interesting to me...

Re: What shows do you watch?
yeah.. I think Witcher pays off if you stick with it, really looking forward to season 2, hopefully they get a a bigger CGI budget because some of the stuff looked janky AF IMO but not all of it was terrible....... and well.... Warrior Nun is kinda the same.... the story kinda becomes a little compelling BUT it is mindless TV with decent eye-candy

Fuck. Man I’m digging not having to search thru a ton of movies whenever she’s all ‘let’s watch something but I don’t know what’ but where the fuck is 2020s Sopranos? Where’s the new GoT or Breaking Bad? I want something just fuckin GREAT.

Starting it then. I read extremely fast, but she’s slower in that regard so we’re going to have to skip the subtitles and do the dub version. She’s down to at least try the first episode; hoping it grabs her. Warrior Nun was pure cheese and I don’t want another like that.
EDIT: 3 in. What the fuck

Re: What shows do you watch?
We tried to watch the English dubbed dark the other night because it was late and we didn’t have the focus for subtitles, but we couldn’t handle watching the dub either for more than a few minutes

Re: What shows do you watch?
Finished Sopranos. That may be the most pussy ending to a great show of all time. "I don't really want to write an ending."
"Yeah, me neither."
"Let's just cut mid scene."
"Print it!"
I was a little surprised, though not completely shocked, at Chris's finale. Tony truly had zero capabilities of feeling anything for anybody but himself. What a piece of shit.
For allowing me Sopranos, the wife has deemed I must now be suitably punished. We started Vampire Diaries. Not completely sure it was worth the trade. If not for the nicely attired ladies, I'd probably be out already.
Can all shitty teen oriented Vampire drama just die already? I want it erased from existence. Completely. To quote Dean on Supernatural when he saw a Twilight poster, "That's not a vampire. That's a douche bag." Ugh.
Oh, and the spunky know-it-all teenage girl thing in these is beyond annoying. You're a teenager. You know precisely dick about anything. So shut up and stop trying to control everybody else's life.

Re: What shows do you watch?
We made it through S1 of Dark a week or so ago? It stopped at a point that I felt comfortable leaving on for a bit. It's got a lot going on and I am mainly impressed that I kept up between the 3 different eras with all the character arcs. Some complex shit!

Re: What shows do you watch?
Little kid that disappeared is Jonas’s father?! Wtf?
How can they exist in the same place at the same time? That kid was like 12 when he disappeared, Michael must have lived there for years.
I’m not understanding this and now she has to leave, and she’s forbidden me to watch it without her...

Just you wait for the end of season 2. Luckily you won't have to wait 18 months for resolution

Re: What shows do you watch?
Finished up Lethal Weapon over the weekend. So weird.
Wayans wusses out IRL, causing the studio to fire the actor playing Riggs. Who was awesome in his role. Then, they get Stifler as a different character to fill that void. Who was great. Seriously. Then Wayans bitches out because he doesn't want to work long hours and says he is quitting. Then they don't renew the show. The problem was clearly Damon Wayans who should have stopped 25 years ago after Major Payne and whatever other garbage he was involved in after the awesomeness that was Living Color. Dumb.
Started up S2 of Dark. Not really feeling the vibe for whatever reason. May come back to it again; may not.

The mindfuck is real as is the suffering!
The creators or Dark have a new thing in the works called 1899. It's a horror set on an immigrant boat. Stoked for that.

This show is fucking amazing. We just finished season 3 last night. Literally takes every single Viking trope and just punts it straight down your funny bone.
Freya = badass, though you don't see as much of that this season as you did in season 2.

Yes Indeed ! She is Awesome . And the actor that plays Jarl Varg is without a doubt one of the finest actors of our day .
