We've just watched the pilot of iZombie. Full on cheesy high concept police procedural.

I love it.

Or was it Chris Pratt? No, it was Pine. Or Pratt.

It's finally happened.

2 Broke Girls has been CANCELLED.

I gotta say, it's been a long time coming even though I loved it for a fair few seasons. Unfortunately Stifler's mom often made it utterly unbearable given her prominence. Goddamn Max, I'll miss you and your fabulous big boobs.

Why did it have to die when The Big Bang Theory is allowed to love?

I'll wait for Grim... to post the Super Bowl vid to conclude this gorgeous train wreak of a programme.

Watched the Louis CK special on Netflix last night, thought it was very funny although apparently it's not of his best sets, took a little while to get going and started with what was probably the weakest material of the 75 minutes.

Properly had me LOL-ing by the end though.


Is that the "2017"? Ten minutes in, and it isn't great.

I like the premise but Seth whats his name isn't very funny.

Also space doesn't have a morning. At least commit to your concept.

Do Royal Navy ships run on GMT, as they must move time zones every day? I imagine submarines must, to maintain shift patterns.

I imagine maintaining a consistent timing system across Starfleet would be extremely challenging, due to the extreme distances and relativistic effects of superluminal travel.

I'm not particularity familiar with his work, but I quite enjoyed A Million Ways To Die In the West, but that was probably mostly due to Charlize Theron.

I thought the first season was excellent with an interesting setting, good plot and well choreographed brutal fight sequences. The second season felt like a different show, with silly amounts of blood and Nick Frost as unfunny comic relief.

I agree with all that, shame about nick frost, still enjoying it though. Better than most things on telly atm.

Run on Zulu Time (it is GMT), but also adjustment for location in the world..

So is that not "local time" then?

Author:  KovacsC [ Thu May 18, 2017 8:32 ]
Post subject:  Re: General Purpose US TV thread

Both...

Has to be on Zulu for communication back to the UK, and local for where the ship is.

The Good Fight was good. Only 10 episodes, so kept it punchy and interesting all the way through.

Spin off from The Good Wife, but without the main character of that.
