Bespin 8,472 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 I LOVE OUTLANDER! I read almost all the books and the TV series is great. Many sexy scenes in the book and series (too much maybe?), including gay sex, as two major characters are gay in this series: the terrible and bad Jonathan "Black Jack" Randal and the good Lord John Grey. The sexy Jamie Fraser will cross swords with these two, in two very... different manners. The Illustrious Jerry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marian Schedenig 8,153 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 I started watching Outlander for Moore and McCreary. It does have a strong soapy aspect that at least takes some getting used to, and as Jay said, the time travel element is mainly used as a setup (though it does pop up in the plot a couple of times, and it drives the larger emotional arcs). It's really well made though, and despite (or perhaps because of?) the soapy stuff it manages to create a strong attachment to its characters that pays off during the emotional climaxes. It never stops having a excess of soap, but I think it's worth enduring because when the show gets good, it's really good. Plus you get more Scottish than in all other shows I'm aware of combined, so it's worth seeing just for the language. I've mostly been watching it on Netflix, which gets the the seasons horribly late, meaning I'm used to have the latest soundtrack lying around in shrinkwrap for the better part of a year before opening it. Currently I'm using my Amazon Prime test membership to catch up with S4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 This Outlander show, it reminds me of Dr Quinn Medicine Woman. Like the tall chick, she's not a doctor, she's a nurse, but she's a forward thinking woman living in the olden days in a man's world, and she falls for a big manly man with a heart of gold.

Quintus 5,399 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Episode 5 of Barry's second season just blew the lid off this already wildly unpredictable series, and whereas I'd been considering it a pleasant and amusing filler show up till now, it has instantly ascended to essential status from here on in after this absolutely nuts instalment. Kill Bill on TV? I'll take that, yes siree! Laugh out loud funny and properly brilliant, you'd be daft to skip it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why was I under the impression that it was building up to a planned series finale? I don't actually watch, I just thought that it was wrapping up on its own terms for some reason. On 5/13/2019 at 9:47 AM, Jay said: I've never seen it either, but the 6th season just premiered 3 days ago, and it was already renewed for a season 7 before that even started. And now they've already finished filming all of season 7, even though the season 6 finale hasn't even aired yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollemanneke 3,334 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 I'm trying not to binge-watch the new Family Guy season and used Friends as a back-up. No more.

Quintus 5,399 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 From what I remember, Friends was a huge hit in the UK. But so many US sitcoms are. Cheers, Frasier, Will and Grace, Big Bang... all very popular and beloved here. But not Seinfeld. That didn't become pop culture here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 The Friends obsession has just gotten bigger and bigger with nostalgic millennials, probably because of Netflix or something. I have no desire to revisit it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Stu 15,495 Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Every character on Friends is grossly off-putting and awful. I don't understand the appeal of watching assholes who think they're nice be assholes at each other. Seinfeld's characters at least embrace being monsters. Anyway, 3rd Rock is better than both.
