'Beneath You'
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.
On the one hand I think the book provides a lot of context, but on the other hand I think the "sequel" may end up just being a rehash of the original plot so you might enjoy it more without?
I have purchased Watchmen. I am mildly annoyed by the "Now an HBO series" marque on the cover, but it could be worse. It's basically the same cover, not with pics from the series or anything.
Okay, I really enjoyed ep 2.
First, the EXCEPTIONALLY high-quality shade being thrown at Zach Snyder via the style of American Hero Story. So many kudos to whoever pulled that off. Bravo.
Second, knowing that the clone (?) butler is Tom Mison, who I did not recognize in the pilot, but am pleased to have again on my TV screen.
I have it on somewhat questionable authority that you'll be seeing a lot more of Mison later in the show.
Yep, that already happened in episode 2. That entire sequence was bonkers in a way I found both disturbing and delightful. Honestly kinda gratified that the first all-out nudity we saw on this show was in a dude, after all the gratuitous T&A stuff we saw in Game of Thrones.

If you mean the full frontal nudity, that was last night.
Yep yep. I haven't gotten around to watching yet, but everything I'm hearing is good. Regina King and Jean Smart in a show that busts on Zack Snyder? Shut up and take my money!
Jean Smart is so good.
