The original made for TV miniseries with Powers Booth was really well done.

Some real “not the onion” energy.
- Comment on ‘Robin Hood’ Adds 6 To Cast In Recurring Roles; Production Underway In Serbia 3 days ago:
Reminds me of the comments on the “Pride & Prejudice” post — so many other stories to be told but the entertainment industry just keeps redoing the same ones over and over.
- Comment on ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Was Denied 2-Hour Finale Movie, Says Sonequa Martin-Green 3 days ago:
Disrespectful is telling people that didn’t like the show that they must not have gotten enough hugs from their father.
- Comment on Television could go the way of newspapers if the US economy tips into recession, analyst warns 3 days ago:
The whole story is weird. I doubt tv advertising is going anywhere.
- Comment on ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Was Denied 2-Hour Finale Movie, Says Sonequa Martin-Green 3 days ago:
Saru and the backstory about his planet was the best part of Discovery.
- Comment on What's a highly-rated, critically acclaimed TV series that you couldn't get into, or have no interest in? 4 days ago:
Watching just the first season of Stranger Things was probably the right way to do it. The first season is a complete story, and all the other seasons just feel like Netflix milking its success for $$$.
Other shows where you can watch the first season and stop for similar reasons: Handmaids Tale, Westworld.
- Comment on What's a highly-rated, critically acclaimed TV series that you couldn't get into, or have no interest in? 4 days ago:
The first couple of episodes drag, but it picks up later. You might try the books instead. Or even the audiobooks — the narrator for those does an excellent job.

I didn’t care for Breaking Bad, but I did enjoy “Better Call Saul” up until the last season. 🤷♂️

Did you see the photo attached to the story? It pretty much validates Archangel’s comment.
- Comment on The X-Files Reboot Update Is Good News For Scully Fans 6 days ago:
I hope the reboot is full of conspiracies about DOGE, Elon, and Plantir.
- Comment on Hollywood Execs Fear Ryan Coogler’s Sinners Deal ‘Could End the Studio System’ 6 days ago:
This isn’t going to end the studio system. What nonsense. Most studios don’t do anything with their back catalog. Just ask Zaslav, who insists on taking everything off streaming because he’s too cheap to pay residuals.
- Comment on James Marsden Joins ‘Your Friends and Neighbors’ Season 2 at Apple TV+ 1 week ago:
I’m surprised there’s a season 2.
- Comment on Meet Neptune, a TikTok alternative where creators can hide likes and follower counts | TechCrunch 1 week ago:
Hey, remember Vine?
- Comment on Netflix's 'Zero Day' Added $146 Million to New York Economy 1 week ago:
Also doesn’t mention how big the tax credit was. I mean, if it was a $20 million tax credit but the $143 million was actually spent on local goods, services, and employees, then that’s still great.
“Zero Day” also participated in New York’s film and TV tax credit program,”
- Comment on Are there any ongoing series you're watching currently that you're worried will be cancelled or quietly forgotten? 1 week ago:
I will be interested to see what happens with the Anne Rice shows on AMC.
- The vampire series has reached the second book, and it’s a completely different time than the first book. Will they be able to keep the audience engaged past the Rice fanbase?
- The witches series fucked around too much with the original characters and story. It was not well received, but was renewed anyway. Will it course-correct in season two, or will this be the end of it?
- There are supposedly more Rice shows in the works, but if these two decline in ratings, will those be given a chance?
I mean this is AMC after all. If it’s not a walking dead spin off, they don’t seem to care too much about it. Still poised about Lodge 49, and Rubicon cancellations, among others.

“Any publicity is good publicity.”
- Comment on Jack Dorsey would like to ‘delete all IP law’. 1 week ago:
From your link: “not all Tesla patents are open source.”
- Comment on Jack Dorsey would like to ‘delete all IP law’. 1 week ago:
There’s nothing stopping Dorsey from releasing all of his IP under a public license. Same with Elon who jumped on this bandwagon.
- Comment on Krull (1983) - Mastodon watch party this Sunday evening! 1 week ago:
Fun movie. Very 80s “new wave” feeling about it. Also the lead goes on to have a supporting role in Star Trek Next Generation!
- Comment on What are some of your least liked genres within original television and streaming programming? 2 weeks ago:
I’d count “punched up” live audience shows for this category.
- Comment on ‘Carrie’ TV Series From Mike Flanagan Officially Greenlit at Amazon 2 weeks ago:
Maybe they’ll make it a musical.
- Comment on Apple TV+ subscription available at a 70% discount for a limited time 2 weeks ago:
So cheap you can’t be bothered to pay $3 a month?

This sounds bad.
- Comment on The Handmaid’s Tale’s Elisabeth Moss and Yvonne Strahovski Break Down Two Huge Premiere Moments 2 weeks ago:
This show went on way too long. First season was perfect, and much like Westworld, it went downhill from there.
- Comment on SNL censors audience profanities during Ego Nwodim’s Weekend Update segment 2 weeks ago:
“Shit” falls under the profane category.
- Indecent and profane content are prohibited on broadcast TV and radio between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m., when there is a reasonable risk that children may be in the audience.
- Comment on SNL censors audience profanities during Ego Nwodim’s Weekend Update segment 2 weeks ago:
I could have sworn there were lighter broadcast restrictions after 10 pm. It’s a bit ridiculous that NBC is freaking it over the word “shit” being used in late night tv.
- Comment on ‘Only Murders In The Building’ Adds Logan Lerman To Season 5 Cast 2 weeks ago:
I swear this building must be located in Cabot Cove, the way people keep dropping dead there.
- Comment on ‘Interview With The Vampire’ Star Sam Reid & Producer Mark Johnson On How Season 3 Tackles “Rock Star Vampire” 2 weeks ago:
Will be interesting to see if the show can hold onto last season’s viewership. Book two is very different from book one.
