Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 What else? Deep Space Nine. The Reckoning. What a weird episode. It's pretty good, actually, aside from a bizarre duel between a possessed Kira and Jake Sisko with some kind of Force lightning. I actually think the Harry Potter wizard duels ripped this one off.

A24 4,326 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 American Horror Story Freakshow has its next to last episode tonight. Should be freaky.This week we checked out Arrow but it's not something I can watch. Then we checked out Agents Of SHIELD and again, it's not a show for me. Then I suggested American Horror Story, and even though it's a bit too much of everything, we'll probably continue to watch it. At least, it didn't feel so average and ordinary.

A24 4,326 Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Joey just loves horror, Steef, the quality doesn't matter. Heck, he even loves Alien and nobody hates Ridley Scott more than Joey. He simply has no choice, it's horror! See what I mean? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixon Hill 4,233 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I'm not a fan of posts that exist solely to talk about how much someone didn't like something. But I can't avoid this.Last night we watched an episode of Mulaney. I can't properly articulate how bad this show is. I was genuinely dumbfounded by it. It's just so, so bad. I recommend it just so that you can share in experiencing how awful it is, as it really does have to be experienced. Wow. It wants to be Seinfeld and it just could not be further from those heights. What the hell was Lorne Michaels smoking when he let them put his name on this one? Not one single moment drew even the slightest smirk out of either of us. I actually felt pretty depressed by the end of the episode for having watched it and being aware that something so crappy exists and that people are getting paid for it. This is a show that could make Alexcremers stop believing in the magical present of television. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,639 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 True, but only die-hard Star Trek fans would care enough to watch it in HD. And since Star Trek is no longer "trendy", it's essentially a niche product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 The thing is that TNG was shot on film but edited on NTSC video. Meaning its not just a case of image restoration. The whole show basically has to be redone from the ground up. And thats costly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted January 16, 2015 Share Posted January 16, 2015 I think DS9 would look the best in HD since it's the most cinematic of all the Star Trek series, although it doesn't look bad on DVD by any means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glóin the Dark 1,220 Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 The second season of Veep. It was very good. I'd really like to see a comedy of kind about US politics which really has the dryness of The Thick of It. Veep is like The Thick of It translated into American via CBeebies. (Not entirely unlike what happened to The Office, though I think Veep is a better adaptation than The Office: An American Workplace.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
