What tv shows are you watching

[NotADcotor]

But... but... what if she decides to pick the other pretty boy she tripped over?

But yeah I'm talking about shows where romance isn't necessarily the primary focus but it's still there, lurking in the background, ready to spring a sappy song at you...

Sure, but it gets much worse when it's a central plot point. A few shows don't have one, Stovetop League for example. Hotel De Luna is another if I remember right.
As for the rest, you take the good. You take the bad. You take it all and apparently there you have a Kdrama.

Also, not allow. Girl trips into a guy's arms, they must get married. Also if you are driving you must take a U turn on a regular basis or you will lose your driving licence and without one of those how will be you able to kill something via road accident. Also if you are up to no good, you must dress all in black with a black baseball cap. There also must be wrist grabbing, piggyback rides and a trip to the hospital. I think it's a law or something.

I know it's been around a long time, but I just recently got into The Big Bang Theory reruns. I'm finding it absolutely hilarious. Chuck Lorre sure knows how to make a sitcom.

I haven't seen this show listed lately, but I have several episodes on my pvr. It's called Naked Attraction on OUTtv. It's a British dating show where one person gets to chose from 6 totally naked contestants. At the end the person choosing has to appear naked. All nudity is shown in full.

Iron Chef, bigger better, badder!

Netflix now has the rights to Yuki Ettori's global phenomenon and it looks amazing. Mark Dacascos returns as The Chairman, his acting career has taken off with roles in John Wick, Hawaii 5.0 and Agents of Shield. The format is different as they are crowning The Iron Legend. Uncle Roger's crush Auntie Esther is in the competition, unfortunately the amazing Auntie Liz is not.

Uncle Roger besotted, let's see what Auntie Esther does in the new Kitchen Stadium.

If you wanna watch a really bad "reality TV" series watch "Fboy Island". The premise is 3 skanky girls are sent to a secluded island resort with 13 nice guys and 13 "fuck boys".

The goal of the nice guys is to get chosen romantically by one of the girls, share $100,000 with the girl, and see where it goes from there. The fuck boys are playing to get chosen by one of the ladies, and if one of them does he gets to keep the whole $100,000 for himself.

I was curious, but only lasted half way through the first episode before I turned it off...

Prey, the new movie in the Predator franchise, dropped on Hulu today:

 

[xmontrealer]

Just finished watching Seaon 1 of "Industry", an 8 part series co-produced by HBO and the BBC. Kind of like "Billions" but takes place in England. More about the people working at the trading desks, and not as brilliant. Some straight and gay sex with full nudity. Not highly recommended, but worth a watch.

Season 2 is just starting...

The premise is almost identical to the 2004 Fox reality show Playing it Straight, cancelled after three episodes. I never saw it, but I had a subscription to Entertainment Weekly back then.

Playing it Straight wikipedia link

"Filmed in Elko, Nevada, the series followed Jackie, a single, straight college student, as she searched for love among a group of 14 men. This group, however, consisted of a mix between straight and gay men. Each week Jackie went on individual dates with the men in order to determine if they were straight or gay. Each week Jackie was required to eliminate two men who she believed to be gay from the competition. If the final contestant was a straight man, he and Jackie would split a $1,000,000 reward; If the final contestant was a gay man, he would solely receive the $1,000,000."

That doesn't surprise me, "Nice Guys" are usually the most shallow douchebags in existence, only they'll give some bullshit line about how they "have standards!" I always want to ask guys if they really think they'll have anything in common with the gym bunny party girls they're convinced are meant to be theirs. I also always tell them that if women really only dated "assholes", most of them would have no problem getting a girlfriend.

There's a joke that goes if you really want to know if he's a nice guy or a "Nice Guy", just speak these four words, "I have a boyfriend" or these five words, "Can't we just be friends?" If he's the latter, he'll go from zero to "incel" in less than 30 seconds. In fact, guys like that tend to be "incels'" larval stage.

I just started watching The Man in the High Castle on Prime. Dunno if I'm going to stick with it. I always enjoyed Philip K. Dick's short stories more than his novels and the book the show is based on is no different.

Speaking of show's based on Dick's work, I was sort of disappointed that Electric Dreams, the anthology series that adapted a bunch of his short stories, didn't get a second season. Sure, the first one was hit and miss and they botched the adaptation of one of my favorite Dick stories, 'The Impossible Planet' but I would have liked to have seen them adapt some of his other stories, including 'The Defenders', a story I'm surprised that the Wachowskis didn't cite as an influence on the Matrix given its plot about machines creating illusions for humans hiding underground in a post-apocalyptic world.

These are on my to watch list. For those who don't know, The Man in the High Castle, (4 seasons; 40 episodes, 2015-19), is about an alternative history where the Axis powers won World War II, and the Japanese control the Western USA, the Germans control the east, and the midwest is 'relatively' free America. Canada is not occupied by either of the Axis powers. I've only seen season 1, episode 1 so far.

Currently watching HOUSE MD. Started off amazing, but starting to get redundant, but I heard season 2 gets much better so I'll stick with it.

I watched the whole thing and loved it.

Stick with it.

2 things I've been binging this month that I really enjoyed are:

See (AppleTV +) which is a great post-apocalyptic dystopian starring Jason Momoa
The Sandman, just landed on Netflix and after a couple episodes I'm hooked!! I haven't read much Neil Gaiman but I think I should because every time they turn his work into a movie/tv show I'm blown away.

Lucifer is loosely based on Gaiman's work. I only saw the first three seasons but I absolutely loved it. The supernatural element and Tom Ellis' "Charming douchebag" performance saves it from being another "Cop working with a quirky partner they have 'Will they or won't they?' romantic tension with" procedural.

It's on my list of shows I'm planning to watch/get caught up on now that I have Netflix. I'm currently playing catch-up with The Flash and I also have Stranger Things and The Umbrella Academy on the go.

Umbrella Academy is fantastic. Stranger Things even better but the episode lengths are massive so plan accordingly.

On a side note watched the 5 3 minute I Am Groot Shorts. Fun diversion! You can use them to break up the intense Stranger Things episodes.

Currently watching on NETFLIX.

I remember watching the Much Music footage and being shocked. But the reality was so much worse. Just straight up shitshow from every direction!

Umbrella Academy and Stranger Things are 2 of my favourite series' of the last few years. And UA is local so spotting all my favourite places is fun. They shot much of the first season down the street from my old place.

I enjoy playing "Spot the Toronto landmark/neighborhood" while watching UA too.

Klaus Hargreeves has quickly become my new favorite character. If you want to watch a show that's similar, if you haven't already, I highly recommend Doom Patrol.
