  • Started watching Better Off Ted on Netflix. Had never even heard of this show before but it's pretty hilarious. I love that all the door numbers are just completely random numbers making it almost impossible to figure out what's where.
  • Watched the Blindspot pilot. Kind of came out of nowhere, but it's damn good so far. Let's see how it goes.
  • Started watching QI. Holy crap, this show his hilarious.

    Everyone should watch that thing!
  • Watched the first episode of Quantico. Spent the episode trying to suspend my disbelief.

    Couldn't.

    It's totally implausible and full of nonsense.
  • Another +1 for Rick and Morty. Real good stuff.

    Continuing to enjoy Daredevil as my workout show. Halfway into Episode 8. D'onofrio for life.

    Other shows I am currently watching:
    Jon Oliver - always good
    The Muppets - mediocre but will give it some more chances
    Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp - Very slowly watching these, maybe 1 per week. It's pretty damn funny.

  • Still like the Strain, but oh my god the son is such a dumb little shit fucking everything up, he's worse than Carl on The Walking Dead.

    Fear the Walking Dead: Eh its ok but pretty slow, especially to start. Its interesting to see the decline but the actual story is meh.

    Rick and Morty still killin it. The wait until next season is gonna kill me though. Also

  • My mom watches The Strain. I saw one episode. Not the worst, but I have no desire to seek it out.

    Fucking tops. Every episode was killer this season, but Interdimensional Cable 2. But I'd call it the best cartoon today. (Depends where Steven Universe goes with this Peridot arc, but it's very close)

    I'm gonna jump on R&M soon but I just started Narcos and I wanna see it thru.

    My mom watches PoI, I've caught some EPs and I'm still kinda IDK on doing a full burn through.

  • Flash is like a better Arrow, which almost makes it an ok show.
  • I've been checking out ABC's The Muppets via Hulu.
    I'm very entertained.

    That's on there too? Decision to pay for ad-free Hulu getting better every day.

    Yeah I watched that the other morning because I ran out of YouTube. It is surprisingly good.
  • I turned off The Muppets during episode 3. I just couldn't do it anymore.
  • It's not bad, but it's not that good either, but it's worth it to have on in the background when doing other things.
  • I didn't like the new Muppets at all. Why couldn't they just have stuck with the variety show? Bleh.

    It passes my bar of "will I watch this". I will continue to watch it when I run out of other things.
  • Say what you want about SNL, but they killed it on the Weekend Update segment this past week.

    Just a random reminder at how good Rick and Morty is. I've been going through season 2. Can't stress enough how well they can come up with like the most random ideas for some sci-fi style situation and explore that situation pretty thoroughly in a single episode. Just finished the parasite episode. Sleepy Gary was cracking me up.

    This show is already very high in my top shows list.

    EDIT: Actually I did get to the subdimension one and the whole bit with the car keeping Summer safe was just so great.

  • Man, the last season of Hemlock Grove was something else.
  • Fargo is fantastic.
  • He who punches but once.

    Man who runs.

    Finished Narcos (season 1) and they just announced Season 2 confirmed!

    Gonna be great. If you can stomach brutal, bloody organized crime dramas, and like your stories based on true events (with style) I say give it a watch.

    Only thing that kept bugging me is the actor's portayal of Escobar kept reminding me of Iosif Stalin

  • I really enjoyed The Bletchley Circle. How come I've never heard of it?

    Good show. I thought the second season wasn't as strong as the first, but still good.

    Have you seen the Hour? Another BBC show set in the post WWII time period? If not, you should.
  • I'm only a few episodes into Master of None and enjoying it immensely however I've enjoyed Aziz Ansari's humour before.

    Has a bit of that too real stuff for immigrants and single people, very slightly like Louie in that the show really forces you into the protagonist's position. However I'd be hard pressed to find a show that I could truly say is "like this".

    Casting his own parents as his parents is hit and miss as some of the lines require some realistic acting but it's just not delivered on. His Dad gets it to a degree but his Mum doesn't.
  • I adored Master of None. I always liked Aziz Ansari, but now I get to see how wonderfully intelligent and nuanced he is. He doesn't cut to the core in that misanthropic, brutal way like Louie does, but he has this calm, modern sensibility to understanding all of life's weird bullshit oddities. He really hit hard on those issues of race and relationships so well.
  • It seems like everyone either loves or hates that show. I've been a fan of his since some weird MTV show he was on so I'll binge watch it either way.
