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.

how just absolutely tremendous. this is why I love television and why I'm so glad the line between TV/movies is becoming so blurred/non-existent. find me the two-hour movie that can do that for forty minutes and pull it off that well. just tremendous

The whole season was funny, scary, stupid, uncomfortable. It was brilliant.

I can’t stop thinking about that finale. I’d love to see a behind the scenes.

yeah, the ¨effect¨ was very well done. I want to know how they got that idea.

Just started this. It is indeed good. Ragnar Lodbrok is in it! One of the few people in Vikings who could actually act.

I'm really interested in The Curse because of Nathan Fielder but also the Zellner bros! Big fan of those guys' work, especially Kumiko the Treasure Hunter. I will watch that next

Overall, I'd say The Curse isn't a great show, but I'm glad I watched it. It's very weird and stupid, as mentioned above, but there's something intriguing about it. The last episode is easily the best.

4 episodes in, it's pretty good! But the boy kid's and his friends' acting is pretty bad.

Since this summer I've been watching movies from 2016-2019, and I now only have 25 left from 2019. I then thought about which tv series were big at that time, and I looked up which ones of those I had never seen. Spent the last couple of weeks looking at The Haunting Of Hill House, The Handmaid's Tale (s1), Atlanta (s1), and have just started Euphoria (seen one episode).
The Haunting Of Hill House was solid, but not spectacular. I read The Handmaid's Tale about 10-15 years ago, and I really enjoyed it. Not quite there with the series yet, but will keep watching it. Atlanta has some funny moments, nice way to relax with something easy. Thought the first episode of Euphoria was great, look forward to continuing that the most so far.

Don't really agree with that list, but it does have a lot of the best shows.
