OT: 58th Obsequious Banter Thread - Something Something Leier

[Hollywood Cannon]

I watched the first season, I liked it.

Haven't watched it since.

That happens a lot with me actually now that I think about it.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Season 3 has been pretty strong. Its an underrated show IMO.

Definitely. Season 3 got better as it went along.

Happened with me with Bosch. Watched the first 2 seasons then stopped and forgot about.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

I had to wait for season 3 on amazon because I got behind on my psvue DVR and they disappeared. But I binged watched the last 6 episodes of season 3. Last 2 episodes were fantastic. Pay attention to the final scenes of the season 3 episode
I have only seen the season opening of season 4

I gave up on it at some point, can’t remember what season it was on then. It just felt like they were trying to shoehorn crazy plot lines in for the sake of doing so.

Is Gotham anything like Birds of Prey? Anybody remember that show?

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

I am using the mobile version now. I like it better than the old site

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

Not familiar with birds of prey. So I dunno.

 

[Amorgus]

Oh god, Birds of Prey was awful. Only my love of all things Batman and lifelong crush on Mia Sara kept me watching that show. Gotham started out nearly that bad but once you accept it as an Elseworlds-type story in its' own universe, it gets better as it goes along. We're not talking Game of Thrones level awesome or anything, but still watchable.

Anyone excited for the return of Curb tonight?

I wish, but the way things are here, I will settle for them being girls.

Heh I immediately thought of that too

 

[kudymen]

One thing I dont like about the desktop version is, when clicking a thread with new, unread comments, it immediately opens the thread on the first unread post. Which is a cool feature, but part of the unread comment is "hidden" behind the top bar (the one with Sportsbook, Betting Exchange, Forums, Media and Members links) - i.e. the feature hides part of the comment I was meant to read first.

 

[Flyotes]

I'm excited about Curb -- the trailer looked like they turned Larry rougher around the edges. Not sure I like that.

I watch Gotham-- but I really enjoy comics so I can get roped into enjoying bad shows. Sometimes the show is really good and other times it stinks. The pseudo-Joker "Jerome" kid is damn good.

 

[Lord Defect]

I watched the episode where the redhead kid from shameless was thought to be the joker. I have no idea if he does or does not, but the episode was terrible, as was the acting.
He does a fantastic job on shameless, I'm not sure what happened here.

 

[Flyotes]

Watch more.

 

[Lord Defect]

Watch more.

One episode in the middle of the season, not the first season at that, is enough to tell me it's not for me.
Dexter and breaking bad both start slow. Daredevil is rough the first episode. If you randomly choose an episode after the first few in any of those shows it's clear as day they are good shows.
Same deal with fear the walking dead. I have that a season and a half and it's just terrible.
The only character that can act in that show is the druggie son and they gave him a horrible character arc starting in the second season.
I honestly do not know how Madison and Travis, the actors obviously not the characters, have careers. His range of acting starts and ends with confused and hers is vacant.

 

[Sombastate]

Details are just pouring in, but apparently a country music festival was shot up in Vegas.

 

[Oskar Man]

Multiple gun men with, what sounds like, fully auto weapons. Possible IED in a car out front of one of the casinos nearby. Very scary stuff.

It doesn’t sound good. Sounds like it was a coordinated attack & not just random. They were firing down from a hotel room 32 floors up.

 

[Sombastate]

Yeah, starting to look like something planned.

I always thought Vegas would be a place for something like this, but having it actually happen is stunning.

They breached the hotel room & killed one of the believed suspects. There’s probably more involved though. It sounds like it’s going to be an ugly casualty/injury count. I guess the nearby hospital stopped accepting non-life threatening injuries due to being at capacity.

You see videos on twitter, not of people getting shot or anything. But just gun shots & people running. It sounds like a war zone.

I seriously don't wanna watch any of those videos. I spent all last weekend at a festival, and this hits really close to home for me.

I'm just refreshing Facebook for updates at this point.

I hear ya. They were shooting down on a big crowd with what sounds like some type of assault rifles. So those poor people really were some sitting ducks.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

50 dead & 200 injured was the lastest update. It jumped from 20 dead & 100 injured on the last update from the LVPD. It apparently was just one shooter but he had multiple guns with him in the hotel room.

He was firing down from the hotel room into a crowd of 40K.

 

[Tripod]

Waking up to this news. Just awful.
