RE: Last web series/tv show seen

I've just finished the first three seasons of South Park. God I love this show. Can't wait to catch up with all of the seasons (already saw the last 2 seasons, tho)

  

 

... And they had 'The Empire Strikes Back', the fifth of the four Star Wars films. He is fucking with us numerically, isn't he! "Children, count up to ten." "Four, five, six, one, two, three, ten". No, it goes, four, five, six, one, two, three… No, it goes: four, five, six. One... Two and three have not been made." "Two and three have not been made! What should they be?" "What should they be? We do not know. All we know is that there will be a big floppy character in it that goes, squawk squawk squawk... who needs a punch up the bracket!"

Indeed, South Park is a very clever show.

You will not. None of us will, except for a very old and dying Ziggy Stardust who will watch it through teary eyes as he remembers us all.

So, everyone here is watching Fringe on Fridays at 9PM Eastern/8PM Central, right?  We need the ratings so we can get a fourth season, and the producers have strongly implied that this season ends on a cliffhanger!

I can't praise FRINGE enough. As I recall I wasn't really too interested in the idea when it first started and only started playing catch up as the first season was coming to a close.

more people need to watch FRINGE. I mean people loved the x-files and here is a show that started out much the same and becomes much stronger as it goes on. - and x-files ran for like 10 years.

I was watching a BSG commentary recently and they were talking about how easy it is to lose people in the audience who then go off an watch something else, or instances where people drift in and out of shows.

I find it hard to picture how people can be so fickle, I mean yes a show needs to really step up and engage and entertain you but when some people are barely paying attention it must get frustrating.

FRINGE is a fun ride and I love how even when they resort to a 'monster of the week' type story they find a way to further the overall plot of the show.

in the end, they need to wrap things up in a satisfying way, whatever happens. Lost ended poorly, BSG ended well [IMO] but people still had mixed feelings about it...

I watched the pilot of Greatest American Hero last night.

SOOOO campy.  But still lots of fun. 

What really stuck out for me is the performance of William Katt who could have slid into the Luke Skywalker character pretty easily.  Of course we would have had Luke with an perm instead of the Shaun Cassidy haircut.

What I didn't remember about the show is Robert Culp's character Bill Maxwell.  While I remembered Bill as an FBI agent who always used the word 'scenario', I forgot how much Maxwell is chewing on the scenery.  I'd be surprised if a young Jim Carrey didn't see the episode and start acting that way as well.

When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish memes.

"The World at War

A  26-episode British television documentary series (1973/74) on World War II, narrated by Sir. Laurence Olivier.

So much great historical footage. This series set the standard model for war documentaries for years to come.

Started watching Chuck from the beginning.  Never seen it before, but it's good fun.  Rather silly, but with enough serious elements to keep it well away from becoming a farce.  Adam Baldwin pretty much pwns every scene he's in.  I've been a fan since Firefly, so it's good to see more of him, and the rest of the cast ain't bad either.

I recently found out a way to help tv ratings if you don't have a nielsen box. Us Chuck fans use it to help out Chuck.

http://www.rewardtv.com

The day after you take a short quiz on the show and, your view is added. VERY IMPORTANT DO NOT CHEAT!!! That is DO NOT post the answers to the quiz on say a public message board such as this becuase, they might come across it and, throw out the quiz views from that day. Since people that might not have even watched the show might've answered the quiz. It's perfectly OK to watch your recording of the show while taking the test though.

Please help out Chuck and, I'll help out Fringe. I've never seen Fringe before but I'll start if you help out Chuck.

I dunno why I'm not watching Chuck either. I'm already a big Vik Sahay fan anyway. :p (from his amazing work on the old show Radio Active)

RE: Last web series/tv show seen

I don't like jumping into a well-established series, though. I'd rather see it from the beginning. NBC isn't the only channel airing it, so I'll keep an eye out for when it starts fresh.

I have been enjoying Charlie Brooker's How Television Ruined Your Life, even if I don't entirely agree with the hypothesis suggested in the title.

... But, ... .... ... .. (insert nonsensicle grumbleing here) 'Kay I'll let you know when the wb site cycles back to the start of the show then.


Erm, anyways last show I watched was No Ordinary Family. Missed last nights episode so watched it via Hulu. It was a pretty entertaining episode.

I should've provided you this link to the wb site. They cycle through the early episodes there. Current earliest episode up is the 7th one. I know though that you want to start from the pilot.

RE: Last web series/tv show seen

Unfortunately, when I go there, all I see is "The WB can only be viewed in the United States."

It is very common nowadays to basically be segregated from American sites, especially ones that are from massive corporations that can very easily afford the extra traffic that the dreaded non-Americans bring. I hate it. And Hotspot Shield rarely works. :p
