Be Excellent To Each Other

It's flat out amazing.

Atlanta is incredible. Very funny and very smart.

Watched 1-3 this evening. Really enjoyed it, but the best bits are when he goes a bit Bauer.

But worried that it is 22 episodes long, which means it will follow the usual 24-sequel plot arcs (probably).

My god, I've just watched season one of Ash vs the Evil Dead, and it is fucking amazing.

Season 2 (episodes 1-2 right now and 3 tonight) await !

When does Westworld get interesting?

WTF

That was twenty minutes in. Fifteen minutes later and I'm a bit more engaged

You goon.

No, your goon

Hang on

What I don't understand is why did they make robot horses for robots to ride? They have to programming two robots now instead if just making a robot ride a horse.

Horses are evil unpredictable bastards that would kill you soon as look at you, that's why

Seriously, fuck horses.

Hang on

Get shot in shootouts, don't they? Don't want to start killing proper horses.

Too easy.

Really? I'd have seen it as a challenge, but I guess its something that gets easier with practice

Halfway thru 2. Yeah, this is pretty fucking good

2 horses in one night?

It's date night

Cried at the latest episode of Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Gaz LAUGHED IN MY FACE.

Goddamn it! I want more Unexploded Politician!

One episode each week my ass!

I am fucking copyrighting that.

It scans well to the tune of OK Go's "Television, Television".

I meant your ass

In other news, Westworld is really pretty good

What is this, 2005?

The modern music out of the pianola is a nice touch

Yes.

"Haters back off"

Genuinely the worst tv show I can remember having ever watched.

Bad beyond comprehension.

Westworld? Tattyworld.

There are almost too many tatties.It's sort of like how gynecologists must feel about vaginas.

This Is Us continues to be excellent.

I think the nudity of the hosts is really well used. It's completely dehumanising, which is the point, of course.

Exactly, yes. You pretty much don't notice that they're naked (or if you do it's not remotely "wooo, boobs!") and the staff clearly don't either. It's very well used.

Not in my house. Every 2 minutes is "Woo boobs!"

(On a serious note, I bloody loved episode 1. It could easily have been a one-off and it'd still have been immensely satisfying.)

(Because of the tatties)

This week's B99 is the Halloween special and it's glorious. There's so much superb Holt.

What's the deal with weapons in West World? Are they real or not?

I don't think so no. Even if only the guests had real weapons they'd just end up shooting each other.

In the film they were real but couldn't be fired at people. Bullets fired by the robots also seem to hit things other than people. Some sort of smart ammo maybe.

They're real, but only work on the hosts. They physically damage the hosts, so must be real, physical bullets. I assume it's some sort of nanotech or something in the bullets that makes them harmless against the visitors.

They're not entirely harmless they just can't kill. That visitor (the bloke from Lost, is it?) gets shot in the shoulder and spun around after that bounty escapes and takes the working-girl hostage. He examines his shoulder and there was a noticeable bruise.

Well remembered, yes! So ner ner ner Craster.

Proposal: Westworld thread split. I reckon the show deserves its own thread.

Every show deserves its own thread, so that when people binge watch earlier episodes when they come to it later they can find the posts about that show instead of the huge general mess thread.

Also a valid opinion in my opinion. I dislike mega threads.

Yes.

Just watch one Westworld... It is great... can we have a seperate thread?

Less asking, more doing.
