Ive been watching Babylon 5 for the first time after numerous failed attempts over the years. The beginning of S01 was pretty rough to get through but then the show got really good. I'm shocked at how close it parallels modern times with President Clark.

Currently on S05 (the final season) and it's gotten sort of rough again. From my understanding, it's because the creator thought the show would be canceled after s04 so he wrapped the whole story up that season but was then greenlit for S05.

    do they tell me where to get torrents? because I can already do that.

    you're talking about a service that tells me where to find unlubricated sphallic objects with spikes or spines to shove up my ass, and I'm waving a bottle of lube and bucket of sex toys for every orifice at you. and explaining that its cheaper. I'm sure your thing is great for finding spiky phallic objects.

    they still spy on you and show ads. the artists still don't get paid.

    I tell you, I make a point of going out to dtla once a week and tipping 30% on coffee and lunch; I might be the only person here who supports the people who make movies.

    storing things local is greener too.

    there's literally no reason to use streaming services that doesn't make you a bad person.

    It was hilarious and very well fleshed out characters and world. I also really loved all of the gymnastics even though I never did gymnastics. My wife did it in highschool and was laughing so hard when they did the routine from Bring it On which they thought they invented.

    Also if glee could have 1000 seasons we could add in at least one more for Stumble. RIP you were gone so soon

    Damn I cant believe theyre cancelling Stumble. That show was absolutely hilarious. Although to be fair it did seem like a one season run kind of show despite how good it was. The plot didnt have a very open ended amount of places to go

    Sometimes when Courtney gets mad at me I play the head injury card. Which usually gets her to relax and take it easy on me. But when that doesnt work, then I play the head injury card

    I haven't read the article yet, but was the solution making Big Bird a recovering drug addict, giving Bert and Ernie an explicitly gay story line, using Oscar the Grouch to explore issues of poverty, and cutting the show down to six episodes a season?

    justwatch.com and the JustWatch app made it a lot easier for me. You just select the streaming apps you have access to and then you can search them all at once. You can also see what’s new on all your streaming services every day, and just have one watchlist for all of them.

    The fact they get cancelled seems more about the business then the quality of the shows. There have been pretty funny shows with some good potential. It really takes a few episodes to get going and some of the really good ones may take a season to get in gear.

    I keep telling everyone to watch my favorite sitcoms. (Please watch Abbot Elementary and St. Dennis please). There was more that I really loved that got cancelled. RIP Stumble and Welcome to Flatch

    Last night checked out Bass X Machina, it's dope as fuck. Kind of in the same stylistic vein as Afro Samurai, but a lot more grounded and, I'll be real, better written - and the art direction is flawless of course. I wouldn't make the comparison otherwise.

    Really recommend Pastafazool and Calling All Villains! Both are indie animated pilots released earlier this month that revolve around a cast of lovable but incompetent aspiring villains as unwitting pawns of more dire machinations. Weird that it happened twice! The former has more Saturday morning cartoon DNA, the latter is more stylistically modern, along the lines of a TADC competitor. Both are very charming.

    Outside of the animation space, I'm really enjoying The Terrors of Jordan Mendoza.

    I watched crystal lake since last week’s post. Fuck. Very good show. 8/10 would recommend.

    This week I’m gonna start on orange is the new black i think.
