It scans well to the tune of OK Go's "Television, Television".
I meant your ass
In other news, Westworld is really pretty good

Yes.

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

As if.
Just discovered Star Wars Lego Freemakers and Droid Tales - both gloriously funny and great fun. A lot of fun poked at the prequels too.
"Unexploded Politician: New Episode Weekly!
Ep6 available 10th November"
You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Yeah, they really need to sort their shit out
I've lost interest in it. After an intriguing start it's now just "meh". Maggie Q's story line in particular is teethachingly irritating. As is she.
I might watch How I Met Your Mother from the beginning again. And Friends.
You should watch Blue Mountain State.

Oh, good. Because after two episodes I already had that vibe from it, so now I know not to bother carrying on.
Huh. I like it a lot.
It's basically 24 but with an alternate universe Jack Bauer and no set timings. I've not seen the latest episode yet, but it ticks all of the same formulaic boxes.
I find Sutherland entertaining, so will likely stick with it, despite knowing that the real bad guys are still probably half a series away from even appearing.

Caught up with Unexploded Politician now, due to them not understanding the concept of weekly. Still ridiculous, but fun. It's also really well shot; lots of really stylised framing and cinematography.
Also fun to put the titular character in moral dilemmas inspired by the recent US election, sacrificing some of his moral belief for the greater good and all that.
I'd much rather it not be, like, 24 episodes long though.

Just watched the first episode of the expanse, very good so far. Mrs W says it's got better acting, more drama and more betterer everything than bloody independence day 2: the independencening. She correct.
I've seen a few more of them and they're all pretty good so far! Not too SciFi - just a sci fi setting for a good detective / politics story.
The Expanse is very good. It's also a show that has the confidence to not give you all the pieces up front, which I liked a lot.
The expanse was ace. Took the right amount from the books and went its own way. Thomas Jane was ace. Can't wait for next series.
Westworld is fricking awesome, maeve in particular.

Agreed.
So, up to Series 7 of Alway Sunny.
Chardee MacDennis was brilliant.
Also, Narcos is superb, so watch that, too.

Narcos was great. Loved Pablo's collection of shit jumpers.
