Brónach 1,301 Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Prehistoric Planet. Very good, but the format becomes a bit unsatisifying as it can't really properly delve in the same geological formation and the things it contains. This is more strongly felt in the third episode, which despite the theme contains no emphasis in turtles, crocodiles, fish, mammals or polycotylids. The rest is excellent and I almost feel bad about bringing up some of the other problems (mostly anatomical). In particular, I've never seen scenes this good about pterosaurs, mosasaurs or sauropterygians before. Given how long it took them to make this, I'm afraid we might not see more of it despite its apparent popularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 I’m a big fan of the current Jeopardy champion who’s just passed 14 games won.

bruce marshall 1,315 Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 I'm rewatching the final season of DEXTER. Like GOT, fans seem to hate it. I liked it. Great music also. Btw DEXTER should have been a thirty minute show. Seems like half of every episode concerns boring side characters with little or no connection to the main plot ( e.g. Flynn having an affair with Batista's daughter). I ff everytime the story goes off- track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naïve Old Fart 9,499 Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 The same thing happened to CARNIVÀLE, which I adore. Like Joni said: "Don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,326 Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 It's baffling why HBO keeps doing that. Not that Raised By Wolves was the new Carnivale or Deadwood, far from it. But at least it offered something different than the Disney Star Wars series, which seems to be the only topics that are being discussed here these days.

Jay 37,287 Posted June 17, 2022 Author Share Posted June 17, 2022 Flight Attendant (Season 2) A fun and silly show that felt like a miniseries gets a random second season - and it turns out to be just as silly and fun as the first. It might even be better than the first, since the central mystery is more elaborate, the characters are all used effectively throughout, and Cuoco gives a surprisingly good performance, playing not only the main character but sometimes 3 or 4 variations of her in her mind palace (don't ask). This ain't prestige, Emmy buzz TV, this is fun pulp TV that goes down smooth and is well paced and entertaining, with a very fun original score as the cherry on top. It also wraps up every single story by the end of the season, so if they never make a third season they will go out on top with no lingering questions.

A24 4,326 Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 Peaky Blinders Season 6 Episode 1. Strange, it feels like the death of the mother of the Peaky Blinders (the actress died of cancer) isn't really a big deal for the family. At least, that's the impression I got.
