"Are You Being Served - The Movie". No laugh-track made it seem weird/off but I still laughed out loud several times. Good old show,

List of Best Rated TV Series as voted by the Fediverse
Enjoying & Recommend:
- The Expanse (started Season 4): this is going to be one of my top 3 sci-fi shows for sure. Thank you to whoever recommended it here
- Lanterns: I watch this soon after a new episode comes out
- North of North: It's wholesome CBC content
- Futurama
Also watching:
- Orphan Black: I'm part way through season 2, but I haven't watched a new episode in a few days. I don't feel as motivated to watch now that the main mystery has been explained.
- Star Trek Strange New Worlds: Some of the recent themed episodes were forgettable
- It's always sunny in philidelphia
- president curtis
Recently enjoyed:
- Sterling Point
- Batman Caped Crusader
- Ghosts (US)
- Shoresy
I haven't watched the Expanse yet, but it's on my list. Orphan Black is solid all the way through. Tatiana is a hell of an actress.
Star Trek Voyager. Hilariously I see I'm not alone in here.
The plan is to then move onto post-Voyager shows none of which I've watched at all (this is probably my third time through everything up to Voyager, though.) I started with TOS maybe three years ago? Taking my time.
Alternating between Star Trek voyager, and merlin
Just finished Season 4 of The Bear.
It's helping me work through some stuff.
I finished Spider Noire and it was an absolute joy
Did you watch the black and white version or the color?
I watched with black and white, but I feel that I missed out any color choices that the director made
Yes i watched in black and white in purpose. I dont feel like i missed out at all, i dont even want to know in retrospect what the colors were lol I watched the show because of the vibe and black and white is a must imo
Watching Star Trek: The Original Series for the first time since I was 17. RIP to the Salt Vampire.
new: ted lasso
old: star trek ds9
New Ted Lasso is pretty mid. They should have left it.
really? im actually loving it
I run through the Berman Era in constant loop. I love it all.
I just finished Silo Season 3 Apple seems like the only one doing prestige TV anymore.
I think HBO is still putting out a lot of prestige TV (The Pitt, DTF St Louis, Hacks, Lanterns, HOTD, AKotSK, etc), but Apple is definitely putting out hit after hit after hit (Widow's Bay, Shrinking, Slow Horses, Margo's Got Money Troubles, etc).
Both are going to win big this weekend at the Emmys.
I feel like HBO has lost at least some of their magic. Still good, but a downturn.
I was an early fan of Apple when they were doing only esoteric sci-fi that no one watched. I was surprised how small of the streaming marketshare it is, but not really.
Overall I'm definitely impressed with the content Apple has put out. I hesitate to say HBO has lost their magic, but I could see someone prefer Apple's offerings over HBO's, especially if we only look at recent and not the full backlog.
Just finished the season finale for both Silo and For All Mankind.
Good sci-fi dramas
Silo is scary relevant with Musk and Thiel plotting.
I liked For All Mankind, but the Cold War era propaganda became a little much, especially with the Star City spinoff. I got enough of the chauvinist crap when I was a kid in the '80s.
I loved both of those.
I think I may have to check out Star City after the very end bit of For all Mankind to get the backstory on that even though most of the Russians tick me off.
It's tired Cold War propaganda.
I didn't really watch it with much seriousness in the politics, mainly just as (mainly) 2 sides being mutually antagonistic. Everything in the show requires enough suspension of disbelief, and I thought there were moments of portraying all the factions as jerks in their own right.
I kinda liked how the tech bros gave us a faction we all could hate after a while. 😁
Lanterns.
It is great!
I'm enjoying this one. I want to see more DC content with this format.
I did not understand the very ending of the recent episode.
spoiler
Why crash another car.
I think Jordan is gonna go meet Antaan and crew at the diner and doesn’t want Stewart there.
Not sure why Jordan felt the need to trap Stewart in a crashed car to achieve that. Or even worse kill Stewart.
I'm watching The Muppet Show for the first time in my life and I'm enjoying the heck out of it.
Miss Piggy is such a messy bitch. I love it.
Watched episode 4 of Lanterns yesterday, i am really enjoying the show.
I have started my rewatch of The Addams Family (1964).
And I just watched the newest episode of Always Sunny. That may have been one of the best episodes in a while. I always love the episodes where everything that happens in the episode pisses off Dennis, especially when it is the gang confusing names and people.
Go watch Mr Inbetween if you're after some tight gunplay and a fun protagonist.
I need to try this again with subtitles. I had a hard time figuring out what anyone was saying, and the subtitles were not working at the time.
Try watching Love/Hate without subs
