Sweet, thanks guys.
The âMonsters and Manaâ episode in the newest season of Voltron is fantastic. The entire season 6 is just great.
Ooh, I really like that character design. I hadnât even heard of this show yet.
Itâs a remake/re-imagining of a 1980s cartoon, itself based off an even earlier Japanese show.
The show is made by the same people who made Avatar: The Last Airbender and the Legend of Korra.
Highly recommended.
Itâs SO GOOD OH MY GOD.
We just finished watching The Hollow. It was a bit shaky to start, then it got really strong and kept rolling - and petered out in the last episode. Itâs a neat idea, and they did a bunch of cool things with it, but they choked right at the finish.
Overall a B- show. I would recommend it, but itâs not âWATCH THIS RIGHT NOWâ territory.
EDIT: We just finished watching the newest season of Voltron, and @jabrams007 is spot on. This one was fucking fire. Super good.
Netflix is committed to 78 episodes, so thereâs still a good bit of show left. I have to wonder where theyâre going next.
Iâm digging âThe Good Place.â
It escalates just quickly enough to not get stale, and Iâm definitely getting some echoes of âSurface Detailâ from what Iâve seen so far.
Get ready for
Oh is this the one where he totally fucks with the NRA shill who got super mad about it?

If anyone hasnât seen it already XD âJoe Walsh explains how he was pranked by Sacha Baron Cohenâ
DreamWorksâ new She-Ra series premieres November 16.
I watched the first episode of Who Is America last night. Overall, I thought it was mostly just boring and ridiculous. Granted, I know the whole âshtickâ of the show is to present a ridiculous idea or action and either get the people Cohen is talking with to agree with that idea/action, or to see their reaction. I guess I just donât find that funny or entertaining.
Maybe itâs because Iâm getting older or maybe itâs the current world weâre living in, but the whole idea of creating some ridiculous pretext to show the audience how stupid someone is just doesnât appeal to me. Whatâs the point of meeting a privileged White Christian couple in North Carolina (or wherever) and then telling them about his fictional family or his wife having an affair with a dolphin just to get a response? It would be one thing to confront them about their privilege, to show the audience the flaws or hypocrisy of their beliefs, but Cohen doesnât do that. Later on in the show, in the segment about giving guns to children, he does do that, but even then, I still didnât enjoy it.
I donât know, maybe the show just isnât for me, but I was wondering what other people thought of it and whether they enjoyed it.
I havenât watched it yet myself, but perhaps this is a bit of the same schadenfreude of âliberal tearsâ and âowning the libsâ just coming from the other direction?
Nah, he gets left politicians too. But either way, itâs just his same schtick from his last version of this show, except with more characters, because Ali G doesnât play that well anymore, so yeah, pretty tired.
Pose is so good.
GLOW season 2!!!
Killing Eve is excellent. Definitely lives up to all the hype.
I donât recommend Disenchantment at all. Coming from not just Groening but other great people in his wheelhouse like Josh Weinstein and David X. Cohen, itâs astonishingly safe and boring and dull. Very simple jokes at a sluggish pace. The central three characters are far too simplistic and generally unlikable who casually murder people in most episodes. Really lackluster worldbuilding. The only good bits are the great backgrounds and some of the voice acting.
It wouldnât be fair to compare it to Futuramaâs first season, cause I think it has one of the best first seasons of a Western cartoon ever. Great pilot and hits the ground running with jokes and development. First season of The Simpsons is clunky, but has a lot of heart and commits more to the pop culture satire. This is just basic medieval D&D stuff.
