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.
Kite Man vs Condiment King is more of an intra-office rivalry.
Oh, a work nemesis, not an arch-nemesis. OK
...and it took me nearly a week to remember that Tim Burton directed Batman Returns so maybe I don't need to be questioning any details
"Harley Quinn" is fantaaaastic and I love it. Lake Bell's Poison Ivy is stellar, as is the rest of the voice cast - Ron Funches as King Shark and Alan Tudyk as... everyone? I love Tudyk's Joker and his story in season 2.
OMG, I just love this show and ALL THE THINGS in it.
That is all.
Right?! Giant heart eyes all over the place
Every King Shark line in that show is PURE GODDAMN GOLD.
I love his little spectacles he dons when doing computer stuff.
Yes, it is hilarious.
I just caught up in The Nevers. The worldbuilding is wobbly, the pacing all over the place, and some of the characters are EXTREME Whedon stereotypes but I'm still kinda of enjoying it? It's gorgeous to look at and the cast is excellent, particularly Laura Donnelly (who plays the main character, Mrs. True.) Also diggin' Ben Chaplin's Frank Mundi, who is a fucked-up mess of repression, but kinda principled one all the same.
The episode 5 left me mighty confused, like, it's missing the whole half of the story? Maybe that's the next episode. They had to shut down production midway due to COVID-19 restrictions and pick up months later, I hear. And I'm afraid the glowy McGuffin is gonna be something guffaw-inducing like OMGWTF ALIENS! Still, willing to stay for the ride for the pretty and the ass-kicking. I just gotta temper my expectations and not anticipate any big payoff re. the Big Mystery.
