Exactly as slow paced as I thought it would be
Interesting characters, if only to see how they get broken and put back together
Looks/plays different enough from TWD

I'm watching Show Me A Hero on HBO, which is going slower here (one episode per week) than in the USA I think (two episodes per week). It's directed by Paul Haggis (Crash) and written by David Simon (The Wire) and you can almost feel both cinematic worlds colliding in harmony. Critics call it gripping television, but I'm not so fascinated by it yet.
Re: Whatcha Watchin? (Spoiler Free)
I watched Wayward Pines. Overall good, but it was not without a few things that made me go "eeeh."

Just started binge watching Orphan Black. Done Season 1. It's perfect silly/thrill-y/sci-fi awesomeness, and Tatiana Maslany is AWESOME. Bonus: it's all shot/set in Toronto so I get lots of great nostalgia moments every time my old hood shows up!

I found out yesterday that Under the Dome has been cancelled. It's a shame because I think Season 3 has been pretty good. I hope they end it well and with closure.
This won't help my aversion to committing to TV shows.

I am done with Season 3, and yeah. It only gets better. She is AMAZEBALLS. I hope her career goes somewhere, she is an amazing actress. I ALWAYS forget that Helena & Alison are the same actress. Like all.the.time.

I know, right?! Like, I'll be watching Helena have one of her rare introspective moments, and I'll be like "wow, she really does look like Sarah, doesn't she? They could totally be sisters (or "seestras", in Helena speak)".......and then two seconds later I remember that they're bothy the same damn person.S~V~S wrote:I am done with Season 3, and yeah.

I'm excited to see in season 3 if the actor who plays Creepy Mark is as chameleon-like as Tatiana Maslany is....

Re: Whatcha Watchin? (Spoiler Free)
Orphan Black is great but it's lost a lot of its magic for me. I thought Season 1 was amazeballs and had so much inertia, but lately its gotten swallowed up by its own mythology.
I'm re watching Fringe and I can't recommend it enough. The first two seasons are good but pale in comparison to the rest of the show. If anyone wants to get into it, PM me, I can give you a list of essential Season 1+2 episodes so that you get properly hooked

I watched all Fringe, mainly for how lovable Walter was, but it being a J.J. Abrams Lost-school of mystery self-absorbtion and voodoo sci-fi (oh did I mention how much I hate Lost?), I didn't enjoy it to the fullest. The wrap-up of the official story was clunky as hell and the fifth season jump was a complete disaster.

Re: Whatcha Watchin? (Spoiler Free)
The last season of Fringe is definitely my least favorite. But I felt like Fringe always had an endgame in mind, and it may have felt less clunky if the show had run longer... whereas with Lost they definitely made it up as they went along.Ricochet wrote:I watched all Fringe, mainly for how lovable Walter was, but it being a J.J.

And yeah Walter is the best part.

Lost lost (hey-o) me starting season 3, it's "going along" was more and more excruciating for me. By season 5, I already felt there is no hope left for the show to redeem itself to my taste.Turnip Head wrote:The last season of Fringe is definitely my least favorite.

Re: Whatcha Watchin? (Spoiler Free)
I finally finished Parks (wow, I'm surprised it took me the whole summer after all; I remember watching Season 2 in like four days) and I have to say, it went on auto-pilot a lot during the late seasons. Sure, it was fun putting on a 20-minute episode once in a while and laughing a bit (but not a lot), but it wasn't truly engaging. I didn't save any episode after season 2 and upon revisiting those saved early episodes, I found them and the characters much better, more likeable, simpler, even if not so polished. One of my last favourite moments in the series was probably Ron's Scotland gift trip in the Season 6 opener, because the pay off was like poetry.
I get that great series feature great arcs and evolutions, but to me the characters were given more the aura of self reference and exacerbated trademarks. After the City Council season-long elections, every next half-season or full-season arc felt like climbing yet another ladder (safe to say, I'm glad they stopped at Governor and not Veep/POTUS bullsuit). Even the core theme of friendship and mutual respect sort of became a template for every episode's progress: "yeah, so we're gonna bicker for 20 minutes and then, with a speech, we'll realize we are better than that and we love each other very much". Again, I enjoyed it and it probably just happens to be one of the series that doesn't work that well quasi-binged (because of the stereotypes really sinking in fast), but it wasn't gold.

We finally watched the finale for Under the Dome. Not bad but boy did they really go crazy on killing people off the second half of the season! The ending left me asking questions that may or may not poke holes in the whole egg-dome-cocoon timeline and necessity. Maybe they had to rush it but I thought season 3 was pretty good overall.

Now that my wife is on maternity leave (no baby yet though), we're going to binge watch season 3 of 24. We may go for season 4 as well.
We've also been catching up on the Republican and Democratic debates. It's been difficult to watch more than an hour of either at a time.

I'm watching Fargo season 2 and it's amazing.
I'm watching The Leftovers season 2 and it's amazing.
I'm watching Homeland season 5 and eh it's alright, but I think it'll unfold in a predictable way. Plus it has a thing about not killing off secondary characters (that have appeared throughout all the season) when they're clearly at the end of their rope, as if this show has an actual massive fanbase that will just go nuts if that character dies, Sawyer-style.

Re: Whatcha Watchin? (Spoiler Free)
Ughh it seems The Leftovers finally couldn't resist the idea of veering into old Lost bad habits. The execution of this week's episode wasn't bad by any means, but it undeniably dipped my enthusiasm for what the show values more: walking a thin line between grounded intense drama and mystery-shrouded belief testing or simply toying with mysteries and the supernatural.
