I've finished:
  • Fringe S04:
    • completely loving this season, so many interesting twists and turns
  • What We Do In The Shadows S03:
    • It’s ok, there’s no laugh out loud moment for me, just couple of chuckles. Still love Matt Berry
  • The Thick of It S01:
    • Again, no LOL moment, just a few chuckles. Also, maybe political comedy is just not for me
  • Love Death & Robots S01:
    • There are some good ones, but I dislike some of the zany episodes, just not my taste. I do appreciate that some episodes are just around 15 mins
  • Amazing Stories 1985 S01:
    • Very boring, it is not Twilight Zone. I might drop the whole thing.
I'm still watching:
  • JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure S05:
    • Still really good. I just realized that, starting from certain arc (maybe Joseph’s), the main characters / party members seem to be shouting / screaming a lot.
Starting:
  • 30 Rock S02:
    • I am really enjoying this second season, there’s a lot of absurd situations
  • Archive 81 S01:
    • Enjoying it, I like that it’s not supernatural (your typical ghosts / satan) horror. Kinda like the twist
  • X-Men Evolution S01:
    • This feels like it’s geared towards highschool kids. The 97 animated series feels more… mature / adult oriented?
  • The X-Files S02:
    • Definitely moves faster than S01. I am really liking this season.

So, what have you been watching last week?

Edit: I always forgot that I watched some movies too:

Here they are
  • Freelance (2023):
    • not interesting at all, dropped it halfway
  • Elle (2016):
    • this is Paul Verhoeven’s French movie. It’s a really interesting movie, doubly so when you realized what’s actually happening
  • Alone Across Arctic (2019):
    • Sadly I don’t find the documentary interesting enough
  • Gangs of Wasseypur - Part 1 (2012)
    • This is a good Hindi language movie, somehow reminds me of the golden era of Hong Kong’s triad movies. But there are parts that definitely could be trimmed. 2½ hour is just bit way too long.
  • Butcher’s Crossing (2023)
    • I watched it because I have the sick urge to watch all Nic Cage’s movies. I think this is one of those direct to DVD ones. Something about hunting bisons. Very boring.

      Dropout is a streaming service from a bunch of former CollegeHumor folks. There are silly game shows like Game Changer and Um, Actually. D20 is their TTRPG show. They mostly play D&D set is funny scenarios (fantasy high school, Candyland), but have done sci-fi games and a couple others. Think Critical Role but much shorter stories and with comedians instead of voice actors.
