New year, new thread for any TV/streaming series discussion, though obviously feel free to set up a new thread/bump existing threads for individual shows if you want
Kaleidoscope (the ‘watch episodes in any order’ series) is on Netflix from today. Hopefully Our Flag Means Death will finally be on iPlayer this month or next month too.
I can’t recall the first season being a slow burner, I think I loved it from the start. I suspect it may not be your thing if you’re not into it half way through. It does start to unravel a bit towards the end so might be worth sticking with if you like chaos!
As mentioned Sky/Now TV but it’s a crapshoot how close it is to the US airing. Maybe this one will be better for that though due to the success of Glass Onion.
Haven’t been watching a whole lot lately. Watched the second half of Inside Job on Netflix shortly before Christmas. I’m glad the Gravity Falls team don’t have to deal with Disney anymore but I’m really over the adult sci-fi animation I’m so smart and belligerent!!! vibe. It’s not as annoying and smarmy as Rick & Morty and there were some laughs, but that’s about it. I would still R&M above it for inventiveness but I haven’t watched the most recent season for similar reasons. Also think American writers rooms should have a moratorium on hiring terminally online people, most episodes were like animated Twitter threads.
My Disney+ subscription wraps up later this month and I’ll have no subscriptions running at all at that point. Think I’ll get a month of Now and finally check out White Lotus and Yellowjackets. Looking forward to finally seeing Our Flag Means Death too.
Also intend on making my Columbo boxset my little Sunday treat.
Pepsi, Where’s My Jet? which was kinda fun but ultimately kinda loses steam, and Eat The Rich: The Gamestop Saga which was properly fascinating and a very easy watch at an hour and a half.
I also caught up with Rick & Morty but there’s a thread for that
