Re: TV: The Golden Era Reborn
Hometown visits for The Bachelorette were a let down until we got to the Sikh of Aspen, which freaked out Rachel so much she immediately killed that one. He was quite obviously gay (as are a third of the bachelors in every season) in any case.
I'm going to miss Rachel for being the only featured contestant in the show's history with even half a brain, but this season has been forgettable. I'm not sure the franchise has much of a future. There are only so many times we can go down this road.Cornell University

Re: TV: The Golden Era Reborn
My latest reality TV trash I'm guilty of watching: Live PD on A&E.
It's COPS, but live (mostly). They follow a half dozen police departments around on Friday and Saturday nights and show people being pulled over, DUI enforcement, complaints, burgarlies, whatever happens where their department gets a call, if the TV crew is riding along, they show it live.
The TV crews are using cell service to upload the streaming video right from the field to A&E's broadcast headquarters.Last edited by aparch; 07-24-2017, 11:23 AM.“Demolish the bridges behind you… then there is no choice but to build again.”

Got wind of this in work today. Looks like it might be pretty good.

Re: TV: The Golden Era Reborn
Watched three additional episodes of Ozark. Still enjoying it very much. A lot more dark humor in it than I expected based off of Episode 1.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

Re: TV: The Golden Era Reborn
American Gods ep 2 was great. It has enough violence that it should stick but I'm worried that it may fall into the "shows that failed because they were directed at smart people" abyss. Gaiman wasn't writing for the proles.Cornell University

Re: TV: The Golden Era Reborn
I had time to kill on my flight so I watched the pilot of Lethal Weapon...and I never thought I would say this but it was alright. I mean it wasnt revolutionary or anything but it did the movie justice imho."It's as if the Drumpf Administration is made up of the worst and unfunny parts of the Cleveland Browns, Washington Generals, and the alien Mon-Stars from Space Jam."

"Scenes in "Empire Strikes Back" that take place on the tundra planet Hoth were shot on the present-day site of Ralph Engelstad Arena."

Of course I'm a fan of the Vikings. A sick and demented Masochist of a fan, but a fan none the less.

Re: TV: The Golden Era Reborn
Finished The Fall on Netflix. I see why people don't like the ending but I'd contend it was the most logical ending to what they had constructed. Anything else would have cheapened the experience.**NOTE: The misleading post above was brought to you by Reynold's Wrap and American Steeples, makers of Crosses.
