May be this should go in this list.
Whatchya Workin' On, O Creatives?
Just rewatched Do The Right Thing, one of my all time favorite movies. It is so good, so fresh, so relevant.
ETHNIC, RACIST, AND SEXIST HUMOR - This episode has it ALL!!!
This trailer doesnāt quite represent the movie.
Itās actually quite innocent, tedious and boring.
Thatās what my ex saiā¦
err, I meanā¦ yeah, I never would have gotten that from the trailer.
The basic plot of the movie could have beenā¦ something, if it was produced by anyone with talent.
The most interesting thing about it is that it is one of Adrienne Barbeauās earliest movies. I believe thatās her standing in the background about 1 minute in.
I donāt watch as many documentaries as I would like to, owing in part to my need to be in the right frame of mind for them. I donāt know if I would qualify this as good, but I found it fascinating and engaging, and a little bit sad.
This is a delight, and Iām enjoying watching it with my family.
This is a lot like Farscape
Iāll take that as a high recommendation, and seek it out.
Farscape is one of my favorite shows of all time, and is my go-to for when I want something on the tevee that I donāt have to track closely (since Iāve seen it quite a few times).
I found the first episode confusing but the Farscapiness becomes really obvious in Episode 2āthe bad guys are Space Fascists, somebody is an exiled monarch, thereās one character from Earth, they donāt even bother explaining how he got there, it doesnāt really matter
Fifteen minutes no one gets back.
Been watching Ozark, which is pretty good. Iām enjoying Laura Linney and Iām team Ruth all the wayā¦
Just started on Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, which is super-cute and adorable and if you need some light, fun fare (especially if you have kids) I highly recommend it.
Ozark is great, and Ruth is a real piece of work. I think Iām behind now, and need to get caught up. I did not know that there was a āteam Ruthā.
I donāt know if there was, but there is now. Sheās awesome-sauce, that girl.
Not team Darlene, tho. Man, that womanā¦
Iāve been watching āSpace Forceā the last few days. Before watching it, I had seen a review that panned it quite a bitā¦
Workplace comedies need a strong ensemble to connect with, and thereās not a single character here that the audience can get onboard with. Naird lacks the one thing that made Michael Scott bearable: a heart. Heās just straight up a dick.
So my expectations wereā¦ tempered.
What I got, thoughā¦ I wouldnāt call this a comedy, honestly. Itās funny in places, downright ridiculous in places, but in others it really plays thing painfully straight. While the main character starts out a bit of a dick, after two or three episodes it felt to me more like people just trying to hold things together against a tweeting president and other all-too-real issues. Some of the characters could use a good bit of expansion, but with only 10 episodes I can only fault that so much.
That review made a lot of comparisons to The Office, which Iāll admit Iāve not seen aside from the viral memes which are everywhere. So I donāt really have the cultural point of comparison the review author was going for.
I watched part of the first episode. I found it totally boring and a waste of a lot of star power. I didnāt find the setup very interesting to begin with. Lisa Kudrow seemed promising but of course it was going to focus on the menz. I think she had 2 sentences.
Iāve made it through three episodes, but, yeahā¦ doesnāt seem to be going anywhere.
I am intrigued though why Lisa Kudrowās character is in jail, so I might keep watching just to find out.
