Several people have said positive things about The Orville now. Hmmm. It got absolutely savaged by the critics and by the first few people I knew who saw it.

Almost tempted now. Though I will want to punch the lead guy in the face for the entire duration of the show, so maybe I shouldn’t.

Keith Harris?

That was the reason I never took to 'Scrubs'.

Grim… and Craster have shown up in S3 of Gotham.

As?

Criminal wrestlers

People who wrestle criminals, or criminals who wrestle on the side, or wrestlers who do criming as a side hustle?

Is Thevision reffing?

The Punisher is really good innit.

Your man Shane holds the screen splendidly (he was arguably one of the strongest characters in TWD), and the rest of the cast are fine too.

The violence is satisfyingly crunchy and squishy, and the action sequences are exciting, although I've noticed a few continuity errors here and there.

It's still a bit 'filler-esque' sometimes (nothing as bad as Luke Cage though, at least not yet), but overall a very good watch.

He acts it perfectly well, but he's the size of a fucking train.

nobody really knew they wanted three more Fast & Furious sequels until there was a trailer where The Rock breaks a plaster cast off his arm while saying "Daddy's gotta go to work", and then everyone was like "oh HELL YES! GIVE ME ONE HUNDRED MORE OF THOSE FILMS!";

I still can't believe you'd never heard "It Doesn't Matter".

I've posted it at least twice, probably more. It's amazing.

Wait... what?

That's good, because if you ain't sharing, people ain't caring.

Just watched the most recent episode of The Orville and the character level work continues to impress me in spite of the relatively thin plots. For some reason during this episode it struck me precisely how utterly fucking shameless it's ripping-off of Star Trek TNG is. It's not just a couple of little things, it's almost every single detail: the intro, the theme tune, the uniforms, the food dispenser things, even the noise of the doors. Unless there's some shared ownership of the IP--which doesn't seem likely as one is Fox and the other CBS--then I'm stunned they're getting away with it. I mean the things I mention aren't exactly the same of course but they're so blatantly hewing as close as possible that taken as a whole it's impossible to deny.

or is that not how it works?
