On ‘The Curse’s’ Finale and ‘Dumb Starbucks’ (Spoilers!) For those familiar with Nathan Fielder’s work, ‘The Curse’s’ final episode hits on a common comedic theme: the satirization of a certain kind of person’s desire to read profound meaning into things that might ultimately just be silly or meaningless at conception. ‘Dumb Starbucks’ had people worldwide thinking it was a Banksy, while the show tel…

“On Call” on Prime

( www.reddit.com )

“On Call” on Prime I die on the hill that “SouthLAnd” is the best police show since “The Wire” and with it’s been pretty hard to come close to those two. “The Rookie” is pretty solid and “The Shield” is up there as well. Color me surprised when this gem shows up on Prime. It’s very solid and has a real feel to it. It’s also only 30 minutes per episode with the fir…

I’m revisiting the beloved Nickelodeon shows of my youth like As Told By Ginger

( www.reddit.com )

I’m revisiting the beloved Nickelodeon shows of my youth like As Told By Ginger Courtney may be the most interesting popular girl I’ve seen in fiction. She treats Ginger and her friends as some sort of other species and it seems she uses them for social experiments, almost looking at them on an anthropological level. Still, she’s not necessarily an asshole to them and she’s not really a bully. Miranda plays the more antagon…

What show had the best series finale only to retcon it after getting renewed for a new season?

What show had the best series finale only to retcon it after getting renewed for a new season? When I watched “End of the ****ing World” I thought the season 1 ending was the perfect ending to the show. While I liked season 2 and season 2’s ending, I was a bit sad they had to retcon a bit of it to make the second season possible. Are there other instances like this that have stuck with you? submitted by /u/literalsnoopog …

Why do you think Apple TV+ has become synonymous with scifi?

( www.reddit.com )

Why do you think Apple TV+ has become synonymous with scifi? Silo, Severance, For All Mankind, Foundation, See, Dark Matter. All high-rated shows, amongst others. Even if you’re not a fan of a specific show, there’s no denying that there’s a certain type of writing, direction, and budget put into these shows that doesn’t exist in productions like Netflix and Amazon. Apple seem to be bucking the trend of c…

Shows with successful Flanderization of characters

( www.reddit.com )

Shows with successful Flanderization of characters Having re-watched 30 Rock several times, it really stands out how much Jenna Maroney improves throughout the series. She is a one-note, generally uninteresting character in Season 1 and part of Season 2, to the point where she’s barely mentioned in some episodes. She really doesn’t have any significant stories for a long time. Eventually, as her…

American Primeval. Damn!!

( www.reddit.com )

American Primeval. Damn!! Absolutely the best western on. Makes “Yellowstone” and its prequels look like Teletubbies. like “bone tomahawk” as a series. brutal, violent, gloriously anti-mormon, yet incredibly human and touching. a couple of standard western tropes…but those are countered with phenomenal cinematography, production, and ACTING!! Bravo Taylor Kitsch. his bes…
