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.

      This is true for the majority of people though.  This is human nature.  All of us have said and done stupid things in our 20s but it never used to be on social media forever.     “Cancelling” f

    Well, Family Channel is airing Family Matters (yes that Family Matters) right now they are at season 1 so no you know who....yet, I mean the episode I'm watching atm doesn't have him yet but I know he's coming....it's probably First Date but, it probably won't be that bad, it's nice to actually see the show be syndicated again I don't remember the last time the shows been seen in Canada syndication wise (maybe back when we had TBS)

    MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED! oh god I kept saying this was also a bad idea because no one wants to see Corrine from the Bachelor or Logan Paul in a house together (but I made that comment in 2017 so god knows who I would replace that with)

    after reading this sounds similar to the surreal life fame games, but it's a good lineup Dennis Rodman, Kim Coles, Frankie Muniz....unfortunately Stormy Daniels is also a cast member. Actually an interesting fact to bring up, I actually predicted Omarosa would be a cast member of the show didn't matter what season though

     

    But.....will it air in Canada at all? we don't have VH1 and MuchMoreMusic is gone, well I still have a VPN

    oh not fair I have Shaw

    oh sure now they confirm that it's ending. Still kind of bummed though, it's been on the air for a very long time, ever since I started 2nd grade, I was actually looking forward to Arthur more than Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego

    well here's the thing, we're not exactly aching for a Raymond Reunion like we were for a Friends reunion, besides at least three of the cast members had passed including one of the twins

    It's not tough to do a reunion where they dont have to act. It's done all the time. How many Zoom reunions did we get in the last year.

    Now the tough thing to do is a continuation of the show or a tv movie. Not many have pulled it off. For every Rescue from Gilligan's Island there's an Odd Couple or Beverly Hillbillies reunion disaster.
