I couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be about. Al Bundy's daughter killed her husband or something?

FUCKING AMAZING.
How's Sally Draper in it? She was terrible on Mad Men and is probably the main reason I haven't started this yet.
I dont know who that is...i just know that Sabrina is amazing and Kiernan Shipka might be the best actress of her generation.

A true rising star.
Yeah, she played Sally Draper on Mad Men. She was terrible on that show.
:roll:
Legit bad. Sally Draper was such an interesting character, too. She deserved better.
Wanna fight about it?
Nah. I'm good.

But Bammer's looking for feuds. Maybe hit him up?
I could never feud the man, the myth, the legend M_D.

However the Warriors fucking suck. I don’t have a hometown team (anymore) either but you could at least root for the Pacers or something. Dammit.

We saw the previews to that. Looked pretty interesting. And it has both Christina Applegate and Linda Cardellini.
We’ve watched the first two episodes. Still trying to figure out if it’s a drama or a dark comedy or what, but it’s been interesting.

My biggest takeaway is that it has a really good representation of PTSD in it, probably the best I've seen so far. The music is aces as well. The main story falls apart in the last two episodes - par for the course with Netflix shows it would seem - but there is one story that ends really well, given everything. There is one story line that I still can't get over, mostly because it seemed to be important for all of five minutes and then never mentioned again.

Klaus is my favorite of the show, with Number Five close behind.

Hill house was great.

Also just watched Rim of the World. Fun. Like a modern day 80s movie.

So the one that ended well was Hazel getting the suitcase and leaving with Agnes. The one that was the worst was the dad. Oh he really is their dad but he's also an alien that doesn't age and that scene on the alien planet was really just to introduce the violin and how much he loved his wife but the later somehow isn't fazed at all by letting the daughter who can control sound to kill people start playing an instrument.

The HDR content on Netflix always has a weird orange/red tint that bugs the fuck out of me.

Anyone know how to stop Netflix from automatically playing the trailer for whatever you're stopped on? I thought that was a cool feature when it first started, but now it's insanely annoying.

I find myself rushing through my browsing because I just want to move the cursor before the trailer for the thing I don't give a shit about starts.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Unfortunately you can't stop it.

seriously. Sometimes they don't even play a trailer, just an entire scene from the show.

Why should I have to push a button when they are the ones being stupid?

So you'd rather continue to be annoyed out of principle?
