Premium Cable: The Cursing Costs Extra
[NAFDA] A thread for the discussion of all original programming on HBO, Showtime, Starz and other premium channels.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I'm on ep 3, I think. It's so interesting to me how she is a libertine in some ways, but very traditional in others.
Yes it is! Lesbian landowner but definitely still about those social classes.
OMG the Gentleman Jack finale. I can't survive until next season. I CAN'T!!!!!!
I just started watching and I already love it - can't wait to see the rest of the season!
Finish so we can talk about it. So in love with Anne Lister.
I watched all of Gentleman Jack S1. It was perfect and marvelous and I want the next chapter NOW.
Wasn't it glorious????? I am still obsessed. And it's likely going to be 2 years until next season.
I read Anne Lister's diaries in graduate school back in the 90s and i'm SO GODDAMN DELIGHTED that she's no longer just "here's a thing you might hear of if you just happen to be studying 19th century queer studies stuff" which was pretty much the twelve of us in that seminar room and in summary OH PLEASE SEASON 2
First full trailer for the new HBO adaptation of His Dark Materials: [link]
I stalled on the books, but the trailer looks excellent, with spot-on cast. I never bothered with the film adaptation of The Golden Compass from several years ago but this looks much more promising. Maybe I'll pick up the books again.
Ruth Wilson and James McAvoy -- be still my heart.
