Lilyhammer is Netflix only or torrents

We are looking forward to that we always liked Sylio's douchieness

Pretty fokking strong reviews of The Knick from GL, will have to give it a shot

 

[reno cool]

It's another hospital show? who needs to watch that shit. :fagotitty:

 

[bacon]

That's what's been holding us back too

"good night for F-mom." Last line from Lucky Louie bacon. Ama so sad

 

[bacon]

I kind of remember but not really, we'll have to dig through them

 

[Mudcat]

Still trying to put my finger on the problem

Sometime last year I saw a movie set with dirt covered streets and horses in the lower east side. That was the filming of The Knick.

Early 1900's Gangs of New York/Pre-Boardwalk Empire. Cool chit.

And no theme song. :

I timed the theme song for Deadwood last night. It is 2 hours and 26 minutes.

You're the Worst is pretty good, I think Cami loves it and I like it. A little bit of a chick flick but enough relentless cynicism to keep BB on board. Result - good couples viewing.

Lilyhammer off to a good start as well though we're going to shoot for a version with english subtitles instead of spanish on top of German. Something tells me understanding the other 40% of the show might help.

 

[Cami]

Yeah I liked Lilyhammer, but it was a little annoying when they ween't speaking English and I had no idea wtf they where actually saying. I had to read the spanish subtitles to get the gist of it.

Not that I give a crap about the Emmy's but I hear that Orange is the New Black is nominated for best comedy series against Modern Family, Veep and I guess a couple others.

Comedy?





And True Detective is nominated as a regular drama series against Mad Men and whatnot. Not a mini-series.

Fargo is a mini-series though.

 

[Blitty]

I've only seen a few episodes of Veep and it's way more funnier than Orange will ever be..

 

[Matty]

OITNB has some funny bits but it's certainly not a comedy.

 

[Mudcat]

Some of the worst parts for me happen when it is trying to be funny.

But I just watched an episode with this line of discussion in mind, and maybe it actually is a comedy. Like it is openly, overtly trying for conventional comedy quite a bit. More than I thought.

And a lot of the time I'm like STOP! :

I mean there are some laughs that work but mainly I just want them to get to the plots. But it's there. Took me by surprise. I hadn't stopped to consider until now - but maybe it is a comedy more than anything.

 

[Mudcat]

Okay I have to stop that, using phraseology such as, "I'm like STOP!"

It's getting so I can't tell that I am being satirical any more with the excessive dipshitty use of like.

Gotta quit it.

 

[Mudcat]

Rewatching Deadwood. I only watched it once before and it was a number of years ago so a lot of it feels like watching it for the first time. It is the purest form of the all-important second viewing.

And so can you believe how much I am in heaven?

It is on my Mount Rushmore of TV shows.

My Mount Rushmore of TV shows would have these, in no particular order:

The Wire, The Sopranos, Deadwood, South Park



Can you have have something totally absurd on Mount Rushmore? Referring to South Park of course.

I have decided yes.



What is on your Mount Rushmore of TV shows?

The Sin City sequel is getting mixed reviews. Seems like the more I trust the reviewer, the lower the rating.

No one is calling it a disaster that I can see, but there is a lot of lukewarmth.

 

[Mudcat]

Apparently the Sin City sequel grossed 6.5 million opening weekend which is considered a disaster.
