The Underdog

Recommended Posts

Thanks. I will have to TiVo it; I am a pretty big Modern Family fan.

 

 

You wont regret it

 

It stars Colin Hanks and James Brolin

 

 

 

Edit: Its actually not on until December 10th but see if you can find past episodes. There have been 9 so far this season all are amazing

The affair is so much better this season. Getting crazy.

 

 

The party scene w Noah coked out and getting stranded in car was nuts.

 

Yeah...the whole Cole scene was pretty intense too. I finally caught up to the current episode last night. Great stuff this season.

I binged watched this over last 3 weeks and am caught up now. Ole Whitney, wowzer is that girl smoking. Dominic Sure knows how to play a tortured soul no?

 

Funny how I really like Cole and Helen, hate everyone else. Wonder is they will continue the time line thing or go back to the various POV for rest of season.

Helen is awesome. The scene where she ate a pot cookie and was getting a haircut while looking into the mirror and seeing her mom who she hates was deeeeeeeep.

 

The a hole hedge manager guy is fun too. These people exist. Douche game on 1000.

I assume they'll go back to the POV and the converging timelines; the hurricane episode was key regarding the birth and the surrounding demons of pretty much everyone coming out. It seemed like the watershed moment for all 4 characters.

The Affair has been pretty good to this point, but I am only 4 episodes into the second season. Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of spoilers in the above posts, so i have been avoiding reading them until I am caught up.

Lots of great entertainment is listed in this thread. Wifey and I are always looking for another good show or series to watch. So, thank you all for your input, and please keep it coming.

 

Not sure if this will be much of a service to anyone, but I amused myself by compiling the shows listed in this thread into a list. Then I looked for the original broadcaster, checked if there was a website with show info, and then looked to Netflix and Amazon if no or few episodes are available online at the original broadcaster. Some are likely on Hulu and other places too.

 

Putting this into code is the easiest way to keep the data from looking like complete mish-mash. But the spacing isn't ideal with the columns. Whatever.

You could probably copy it and then sort the data in Excel.

 

Happy watching!

 

PS - Some a youse got a real nasty taste for zombies and the macabre! :ph34r:

Black Mirror is pretty interesting. First two seasons (6 episodes total) on Netflix...

 

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2085059/

 

I've watched the first two episodes and liked them. They are one hour episodes, each one is unique and self contained. There is no ongoing story line. The pervading subject matter is technology. It's sort of similar to the Twilight Zone only with the supernatural elements replaced by a Man vs. Technology theme. So far, very well done.

A good friend of mine is consulting / writing a few episodes for their upcoming season, as a result I've gone through and binged on it last weekend. Completely agree that it's really well done show and more people should check it out.

anyone know when season 2 of Daredevil is gonna start on Netflix

 

Got hooked into the first season

 

Soon, but they haven't announced an official date. Last year it was released in April, so hopefully sooner than that but I wouldn't expect it before the end of January. From my understanding Marvel wants to follow it up with Luke Cage and Iron Fist (the two shows that are shooting now) and then the Defenders (where they all team up with Daredevil/Jessica Jones/Luke Cage/Punisher) in late 16 early 17.

Affair finale was very interesting

 

 

First nice thing Noah has ever done.I will say i was surprised how it played out...i was sure it was going to be Whitney.

 

 

 

 

I did see they signed up for a season 3...be interesting where they take it

Right back to the courthouse hopefully. Very very interesting finale. Scottys house of the rising sun cover was pretty solid !

 

Fargo and The Affair both batted 1000 this season. Scenes on beach with ex wife and her telling him she loves him. Whoa.

I am almost up to the end of Season 2 of The Shield and this show kicks some major ass.

 

The Shield > The Wire...IMO :)

I have to be honest and say that I just never understood the over the top acclaim for The Wire. I think it's a good show, but has huge boring streaks in it. I watched it after it came out on Amazon and it took me a long time to get through it. I kept losing interest and going on to other shows. The seasons always had a good payoff, and I was glad that I went back and kept watching, but again, I just don't understand why everyone loves it so much. Just not my thing I guess.

 

It's been so long since I watched The Shield it's hard to remember, but I know I loved it at the time. Hard to put it into the same category as The Wire through. The Shield thrived on being over the top. I think The Wire tried to be more realistic.

I think you nailed it about The Wire having boring streaks in it. There is none of that in The Shield. The money train plot is incredible and as I am in season 5 the show is starting to come full circle with the strike team from the pilot episode. There was no payoff for the viewer in The Wire. As one person compared the shows on the internet - The Shield is like being on a coke binge while The Wire is like enjoying an expensive bottle of wine.

I thought The Shield was entertaining... but it was a bit off the wall, the characters were a bit inconsistent, and some of the acting was poor so I dont consider it up there with the top dramas.

 

 

 

 

I have started watching the X Files. Never really caught more than a couple episodes. Really good show. Watched the first 8 episodes, only 1 dud.

Thanks for the spoiler tags! It was a very good season and the last 3 episodes were great. I think it's pretty cool how they tell this story, next season will be very interesting as well. This is a well written show with very good actors, next up is Homeland....

was really interested in this but waiting for dvr.

 

Why so meh?

 

Weak acting by some of the major characters

 

There were alot of different plot threads but none really in depth. If they had followed the SS Obergrupenfuhrer (or whatever that long title he had was) thread or the Reich/Empire relationship it would have been much better. But instead it was 2 guys, a girl, and a naughty movie.
