itchy Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) I binge watched Stranger Things season 2 this weekend, and really liked it. Was worried about a season 2 let down, but it still felt new and familiar at the same time. The kids on that show really carry it- really good actors.

I'd say season 1 is stronger but season 2 is good. I'd have finished it but the gf needed to sleep haha so its still very bingeable. And I agree, the kids are all charming and pretty good actors. Milie Bobby Brown is terrific. She's really a sweet charming kid and a good actor. But the kids are directed really well too. And the adults are solid. Sean Astin was a great addition to this season. I saw someone online say its a better story if you think of both seasons as one big story. I get that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPuDS Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 2 hours ago, Jimmy Pop said: Must be fall, because all I seem to do is watch Jets/Bombers and binge TV shows I started s1 of The Leftovers over the weekend. It's a pretty somber show, won't be a pick me up for you. Interesting nonetheless. Randomly one day, 160M people, or 2% of the Earth's population just straight up vanish. The series opens 3 years to the day from "the disappearance". ....some might say it's what the real world needs right now....a lot less ppl! I liked this show. Thought the main character was very well acted.. story line was pretty bizarre at times but otherwise worth watching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iHeart Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 (edited) Welp. the next season of House of Cards will be the last, I kind of want to stupidly say "Anybody care to guess why?" but that might not be the truth Quote Multiple sources confirm, however, that the decision to bring HoC to an end was made months ago and was not in response to the allegations. (A Netflix rep confirms this.) http://tvline.com/2017/10/30/house-of-cards-ending-cancelled-season-6-kevin-spacey/ Edited October 30, 2017 by iHeart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted October 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 There are a lot of people who did things they are nervous every time their phone rings now. It sucks. But it’s good people are able to come forward and it should result in meaningful change of culture in Hollywood. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noeller Posted October 30, 2017 Report Share Posted October 30, 2017 the story about Steven Seagal and Katherine Heigl made me sick to my stomach last week. I think everyone knew Hollywood was sleazy, but I'm not sure I knew it was THIS bad....like really, crazy, brutal bad on women and minorities.....Christ.

I looked up this story and it is weird in the sense Heigl told the story as a joke and claimed to love Seagal. So its odd. Tony of creepiness and outright deviancy in Hollywood. I couldnt help but think about these stories while finishing off Stranger Things last night, what with its kid-heavy cast. So to change the subject a bit, now that I've finished it, really great ending to the season. The final episode was a tear jerker in a really satisfying way.

Well, he was 43 at the time so maybe 15/16 year olds shouldn't have been his focus. I once met a girl at a party and was told she was 18 (she and a mutual friend both told me that). We began dating and she admitted she was 16. I was creeped out a bit and I was only 25! FrostyWinnipeg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted October 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Anyway... anyone watch The Deuce? The finale was this past Sunday. Great series. takes some patience though. By the guys that made The Wire. Gritty. It can be tough to watch (and I find it oddly mixed with the back ground noise really loud) but it became cant-miss for me. It was renewed for a second season by HBO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Unknown Poster Posted October 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 This is breaking news so I’m assuming it’s something newew than the news yesterday that the next season would be it’s last. Perhaps next season is on jeopardy now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iHeart Posted November 1, 2017 Report Share Posted November 1, 2017 well everything is pre-empted tonight because of game 7 of the world series. I'd watch but alot has changed since last year's game 7, I didn't whave a job then, so yeah tonight is a work night as much as I would love to see a drought end http://tvline.com/2017/11/01/law-order-svu-chicago-pd-scheduling-change-world-series-game-7/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it will do well. That was a really big case at the time (maybe not OJ levels, but big nonetheless). American Crime Story is already doing a 3rd season so I dont think they're worried. True Crime is pretty popular. And there are many cases they can make into a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
