I am so fucking hyped to watch Planet Earth II in 4K.

I've been watching this in regular old HD and the visuals are crazy. How the fuck did they get some of these shots? I hope they have a "making of" episode so we can see what they did and had to endure to get the footage.

Yeah, I keep having the same thoughts while watching the first PE. The footage they get is unbelievable. And yes, there is "making of" material included on the home video release.

Interesting. Head of broadcast at BBC talking about how there are colors captured in Planet Earth II that simply cannot be displayed if you don't have a 4K HDR set: http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-38242187

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Just watched the pilot for This Is Us. I loved it. I had ignored this all season, thought it looked like treacly network shit. And it is. But it's honest and enjoyable in a way similar to Friday Night Lights. Will keep watching.

Comparing this in any way to Friday Night Lights is kinda huge. Careful there.

But, yeah, I haven't watched any of it yet. But I want to.
