Re: What are you currently watching on TV?
Almost done with season 1 of The Patient. When it gets to its moments, it's really good, but mostly it's mediocre with some really good performances, particularly from Gleason. It takes some interesting leaps into sometimes unpredictable and abstract territory, but its best moments are strangely the more ordinary ones. 6.7 out 10 horribly told jokes.

Amy Poehler was doing a bad Michael Scott impression during the first season. She finds her own voice as the show goes on.Vitalogist wrote:Just bought Peacock so I might finally watch Parks and Rec. I bailed during the first season years ago but I keep hearing how it got better.

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.

Re: What are you currently watching on TV?
Quality of comedy is probably more subjective than all the other genres. I still don't get why Friends or most other popular sitcoms were as big as they were. I quite enjoyed Dumb and Dumber Too and most people don't seem to like that. Sense of humour is quite varied and personal.

The movie's title is Dumb and Dumber To. Have some respect.

The Dumb and Dumber sequels deserve no respect

Re: What are you currently watching on TV?
Watched Gladiator for the first time in maybe a decade and really enjoyed the extreme melodrama of it. Funny because that's what I disliked about it back in the day. Every scene is soaked in over-the-top emotion. Not top tier Ridley Scott, IMO, but a fun rediscovery
