Yep, that's why I'm not watching it...not going to patronize that blowhard.

I love the humor in Resident Alien. Where is S4 available?

Filming just started in January, so S4 isn't available yet

I watched the first episode and I am a little torn. Woke garbage just turns me off quicker than anything else. I want to like it but the whole... the police are bad mmkay even with Cross being on the force. He is just his own guy on the force... he stands up for the black man because nobody else will. The white police chief trying to bury the murder of a black man because it is bad PR for them. That shit doesn't ****ing happen, if anything, it is the exact opposite in real life.

I am going to give it a few more episodes at least.

Hammock Parties 03-11-2025 01:12 PM

looks like they are departing from the game which is good

Sassy Squatch 03-11-2025 01:16 PM

Really? Doesn't look like that at all to me. Won't spoiler outright but a couple of shots in that trailer are straight up 1 to 1 of what happens later in the game.

Holladay 03-11-2025 02:59 PM

Enjoying the heck outta Blacklist. Thanks for the recommendations.

Anyone watch Abbott Elementary?

8.2 on IMDB and 99% on RT

Wife wants to start it up.

Buehler445 03-11-2025 10:51 PM

Man. I can’t remember who recommended the Agency.

It jumps time a hair too much, but mother****er this is incredible. Slow burn and definitely not turn your mind off entertainment. But it is almost perfect. They don’t waste anything. Every shot is great, the music adds just enough, the intrigue is there.

****ing masterpiece this is.

I got into Mayor of Kingstown, finally. Been meaning to do it since it hit, but I never had show time or Paramount Plus, well, my buddy Picked up Paramount and gave me his login :D.

I didn't realize it was Taylor Sheridan. Accordingly, it's good in all the ways Sheridan's stuff is good, but has similar shortfalls.

But Renner is ****ing amazing. End. God he's good. I just need to look up his IMDB and watch everything he's in.

Hope you all aren't sleeping on Wheel of Time. Season 3 is just on a completely different level. Season one is tough, but season 2 definitely picks up and season 3 is must watch stuff!

House of David on Prime -- not bad.

Any of the devout would probably take some issue with it. As you can imagine, there are going to be some gaps filled (mostly based on Hebrew legend rather than Biblical Canon) but nothing too terribly insane to this point. The actors do a nice job.

I do think they've made Saul too crazy, too fast. From Saul not killing Agag to Daniel taking the Kingship was anywhere from 10 to 20 years based on most sources. Well they have Saul pretty much nutty as a shithouse rat from day 1.

I don't think it went down like that. I just have a hard time believing that the guy held onto power for 15 years going nuts anytime he was asked a question.

No - it's pretty imposing to get into.

I actually thought about watching the show to decide if I wanted to get into the books. That's what I did with ASOIAF and then Roy Dotrice on car rides completely sold me on the rest of the series.

That dude just completely made those audiobooks.

Started watching "Secret Level" on Prime on a whim, and I really got pulled into it! It's a bunch of animated short stories based on popular board games/video games, and they're fantastically animated and put together really well. There's been a Dungeons and Dragons, a Warhammer 40K, and a Pac-Man(!) episode that were all freaking fantastic. And not to spoil, but the Pac-Man ep is ****ing DARK, lol.

Worth the watch, especially if you have a bit of a nerd gene in you.

I have a little more than a casual knowledge although I will admit it piqued my curiosity and I did quite a bit of reading because of it.

There were obvious liberties taken with events and timelines but none of them undermined the authenticity of the show. It was very well done.

I'm just sad that, because I have more than just a casual interest, that I know how the story really ends. Aethelstan united England, according to the movie, in IIRC 927 AD. It lasted less than 150 years.

TwistedChief 03-19-2025 06:57 AM

Oh my. Adolescence on Netflix is the best thing I've watched in a long time (through half of it).

Four hour-long episodes all done in one shot. It's insane.

I'm right there with you, haven't found anything that bingeworthy on Netflix since finishing it... its not quite GoT, but it gets pretty damn close IMO

I'm sure you're getting "because you watched" recommendations for a short lived series called Barbarians... give it a shot and then give up after two episodes like I did, because its a D list version with AWFUL sophomoric writing

Yeah, understanding the historical Alfred colored the way I looked at the relationship. Alfred is the one and only reason we even have written records from that period. He was insisting on recording everything with ink. We would know almost nothing about the Anglo-saxons of that time without him. He's actually the "hero" of the story, despite his shortcomings.

They're actually Anglo-Saxon names. Aethelred, Aethelflaed, Aldhelm, Alfred, Osbert, etc. All Old English. Descended from northwestern Europe - Denmark southwest to Belgium. The irony is that the Saxons' primary enemy at the time of the show was the Danes, who were from just a few miles north of the Saxons on the mainland. They just migrated at different times.

To make a long story short, there's basically 4 factions at the time of the show - Wessex, Mercia, and East Anglia are Saxon. Of course, the Vikings are Dane and Norse. Then you have two related but distinct factions in the Celts. The Gaelic Celts inhabited Ireland and Scotland and then you had the Bretonic Celts in Wales, Cornwall, and Cumbria that were descended from the Britons.

htismaqe 03-20-2025 03:14 PM

For example, the king of Mercia in the second season before Aethelred and Aethelflaed were married (the old guy that died at the table) was Ceowulf. An actual historical character. We all know the famous tale of Beowulf. Ceowulf and Beowulf share a common etymology because both came from an area in what is probably modern day Schleswig Holstein which is the German state bordering Denmark.

Speaking of Anglo-Saxon names and language - only about a quarter of modern English comes from Old English (Anglo-Saxon) but the vast majority of our simple, everyday language is Old English.

You clearly know your shit

I'm aware of all of that on an above surface level, books and documentaries about the old country have been mainstays with me since my teenage years

But being a schooled historian gives you a deeper understanding than myself, and I will never be too old to be schooled... its very complicated history to try and get a handle on

Though geographically close, they were all quite distinct yet somehow intertwined people

William Wallace is the biggest Scottish hero ever yet his family hailed from Wales.. the surname Wallace is just another name for Welsh

O' is Irish for "son of"

Mc is Scottish for the same

Our ancestors were some strange mfers, lol

Gina and Sihtrig are ****ing badasses. As badass as Uhtred himself. And Finnan isn't a ****ing stubborn jackass half the time like Uhtred either. :)

In all seriousness, it's one of my favorite periods in history. I already knew a lot of the large story arcs before I watched it. That made it that much better for me and I got really invested in ALL the characters. There were so many good ones, no matter what side of the conflict they were on. Just a superb telling of the story of that time.

I'm aware of all of that on an above surface level, books and documentaries about the old country have been mainstays with me since my teenage years

But being a schooled historian gives you a deeper understanding than myself, and I will never be too old to be schooled... its very complicated history to try and get a handle on

Though geographically close, they were all quite distinct yet somehow intertwined people

William Wallace is the biggest Scottish hero ever yet his family hailed from Wales.. the surname Wallace is just another name for Welsh

O' is Irish for "son of"

Mc is Scottish for the same

Our ancestors were some strange mfers, lol

Yeah, I know a lot more about the Roman Empire and the early Middle Ages than I do about stuff closer to modern times. I really thought the show did some things very very well with respect to actual history.

Y’all are a bunch of ****ing nerds.

Can someone please watch Adolescence and back me up? It might be the best thing I’ve ever watched in any medium outside of Shawshank Redemption and I mean that.

To add some teaser: imagine if Clay lived in the UK and never found CP. How do you think that would’ve ended up for him?

Can't wait for Gemstone Sunday tomorrow.

It's not. He never watched the show, went on one of his incel websites, and found this and re-posted it here, not understanding the context.

He still is a ****ing idiot though.
