Second season of Orange is the New Black launched today.

 

Anyone else into this?

 

I have to admit to being a bit of a TV/movie-phile.  I generally buy Blu-Rays when there's a movie I want to see rather than just watching it on PPV or In-demand (I like to collect).

 

Premium TV has really been leading a creative resurgence in recent years, probably dating back to The Sopranos.  Its nice that Netflix has become a legitimate competitor for HBO (which puts out some really great shows like Sopranos, Deadwood, Boardwalk Empire, True Blood etc).

 

House of Cards was tremendous.

 

While cable channels like AMC are getting in on the act, I annoys me a bit.  The Walking Dead would be so much better on Netflix or HBO where they could truly appeal to adults (HBO passed on The Walking Dead when Thomas Jane was attached).

 

As for Orange, it took me a few episodes to get into last season but Im looking forward to banging out a few episodes tonight.

 

As an aside, for you Trekies, it was recently the 20th anniversary of the finale of TNG, one of the best Series' Finales in TV history.

Don't mess with the Duttons. Never saw anyone ever smoke a cigarette like Beth Dutton.

Those cutting horse scenes may be the best thing I have seen on the show. The camera work along with the music was perfect.

I said to the wife "those horses are incredible athletes..." the horses and trainers deserve a ton of credit. It's insane what they can do. I've seen more than my share of horse work over the years, and they're often referred to as "equine athletes" and it's really true.

well at least they are doing something new and different (of course Rugrats has gone that route, but I'm eager to see how South Park will do it, these kids have been kids for so long, I mean even we've seen the Simpsons kids as adults at least several times in the series)

I was wondering if they were going to do this again, but this time they're going to do Diff'rent Strokes and Facts of Life

yeah I do have questions about casting Kevin Hart as Arnold too, and I'm not against casting John Lithgow being Mr.Drummond, but.....I think Whose Line pointed out how much Colin Mochrie looked like Conrad Bain

I am a huge Neil Gaiman fan so I am really stoked for the Netflix series The Sandman in early 2022. Should be awesome.

Doesn't seem to be a Canadian-available clip for it yet, but Peacock's MacGruber show is dropping in December. For me and my crew, Will Forte is one of the funniest people on the planet and the MacGruber movie is a constant rewatchable for us. Can't wait for the show, and hopefully it gets a Canadian release (Global App, possibly....)

Hawkeye thoughts? 

I really loved the first two eps. I can't handle the super-nerdiness that was Loki....I watched it, but it was just too much into the fantasy/sci-fi side of things. It was so nice to get back to something more normal....grounded. I think this is going to be my favourite of the Marvel Disney+ shows so far....

A bogus sport. Anyone can outrun a barrel.

I'm halfway through the first episode. I'm watching with the kids, so it could take a few days to get through both episodes. 

 

Looks like fun, so far. Production value is so high with all these D+ MCU shows.

okay are they recreating an episode or are they taking part in a fan fic?

so it appears that Arthur on PBS finally has an end date however this is a Utah affiliate and I don't know if other affiliates do things differently

well a couple of questions are being answered, one of them being Diff'rent Strokes is not going to cover THAT episode, i'm eager to see who the surprise guests will be (I wouldn't be surprised if Todd Bridges showed up since he's the last cast member standing) I mean obviously it's going to be a early episode considering that Mrs Garret is part of it
