What style is No Good Deed and Shrinking?

What style is No Good Deed and Shrinking? First of all, I hate both of these shows with a passion but I’m trying to figure out why. It has great actors who I love, but there’s some about them both I can’t stand. I never laugh. The music is bland, the characters all seem unrealistic to me, everyone seems the same with this sardonic tone, no one is funny…I can’t be the only one. su…

What are some TV shows that did not live up to the hype for you?

( www.reddit.com )

What are some TV shows that did not live up to the hype for you? Are there any critically acclaimed shows that you just couldn’t get into for whatever reason? For me I absolutely did not get what the big deal was about LOST or Game of Thrones, never liked them. My high school teacher and my sister used to be big on LOST before all the bullshit twists and increasingly dense plotting completely turned them off(…

Idea: Mortal Kombat TV series, early episodes are all character case studies. Later episodes/seasons go more in depth on the tournament.

Idea: Mortal Kombat TV series, early episodes are all character case studies. Later episodes/seasons go more in depth on the tournament. To start; I’m sure this has been brought up before. But really. Give me Kill Bill levels of back story and character build out. Then bring them all together for the tourney. submitted by /u/W021pxh

Streaming pushing me to cable

Streaming pushing me to cable With all of the ad driven shows on paid streaming services I’m seriously considering going back to cable and getting a DVR. I mean, come on, I paid for these services so I don’t have to watch a ton of advertisements on cable. If you add up the services I pay for, it equals cable and I’d get network TV too. submitted by /u/Lucky_Chicken732…

Looking for examples of Americans famous in the UK but not in the US

Looking for examples of Americans famous in the UK but not in the US Looking for examples (if there are any) of an American who is not at all famous in the states but is known in the UK. Asking mostly out of curiosity but also as part of broader questions about how the two countries influence each other. I was watching the Big Fat Quiz of Everything the other day and noticed that Katherine Ryan, who I also see fr…

To anyone watching Squid Game dubbed – implore you to switch on subs instead to avoid the weird uncanny valley flapping puppet style mouths and take in the great performances

( www.reddit.com )

To anyone watching Squid Game dubbed – implore you to switch on subs instead to avoid the weird uncanny valley flapping puppet style mouths and take in the great performances So I saw a lot of buzz around how apparently Netflix is using AI to sync the Korean speaking actors’ mouths with the dubbed dialogue. I gave it a go to see how effective it was but this has a really jarring effect. I think it’s actually a lot worse than how dubbing used to be. Not only does it clearly not work, since the edited lip movements are…

Worst subplots in a TV series?

( www.reddit.com )

Worst subplots in a TV series? What do you think are the worst subplots in a TV series? For me Furio falling in love with Carmela on The Sopranos immediately comes to mind, totally ruined the character for me and just feels like a clumsy way to get him off the show. Also that whole Marie shoplifting subplot on Breaking Bad, that was of so little importance it only got resolve…

The Blacklist. Worth the effort?

( www.reddit.com )

The Blacklist. Worth the effort? Watched 5 episodes of Season 1 and it’s entertaining. But it’s a huge undertaking to complete the series especially if the long arc story goes nowhere. Should I bother when I could be watching something else like… Person of Interest for example. No spoilers please. submitted by /u/Jazzlike-Ability-114
