watched the pilot, but colbert just isnt funny (he has never been), felt i wasted my time, will skip this version of the late show.

I enjoyed him hosting, I am a fan from The Colbert Report though. I just don't think the show is for you. I see you like Real Time With Bill Maher, I'd put Colbert much higher than Bill, even though I watch both.

I don't see much comedy in your history either, maybe try some more.

The Regime

Really disappointed with it. Maybe I had too many expectations. Probably will appease some people for the novelty. For me it was really boring and too absurd, but without the humor (at least for me).

I usually don't spend time talking about the shows I don't like, but I was really hoping for this one. I couldn't even finish the first episode.

@tgvlx "Maybe I had too many expectations" I think you hit the nail on the head there. Even looking at your previous comment on Elsbeth where you say "and because of that I had no expectations. But I loved it."

Don't guess or predict what a show will be and you'll judge it for what it is.

So far two episodes are really great and promising. Style is very similar to Cypher.
I have to say I don’t really like Ben Stiller neither as an actor nor as a creator, but maybe he’ll do a better job just directing.

@karmalakas I thought the look more similar to The Secret Life of Walter Mitty which is also Ben Stiller directed

Nine Perfect Strangers

Can't add this show to my collection, watch list or even history... so how do I save it so that I can come back to it later this year when it airs??? Don't want to miss it.

@par83fore did you get it added? Hopefully this will remind you if not.

American Vandal

If you hated The Blair Witch Project, it type of production (photography, direction, script, postproduction, etc…), simply skip American Vandal all together… it’s not worth suffering, don’t even bother looking at the ratings, as someone must have already said “people like flies eat all kinds of shit which doesn’t mean you should eat it too”.

I hate anything whose production style smells anything like “The Blair Witch Project”, the only movie that has made me get up and walk out of the movie theater, if a movie bores me I just sleep thru most it. But that one was a different beast, they were, and I couldn’t bear it, laughing at the audience (me) so I got up, walked out just before the ten minute mark and got my refund.

American Vandal didn’t make the cut after barely playing the first five minutes, it stinks to The Witch Proyect. The look of an amateur documentary, it doesn’t mean that the production has to suck (you can go and see by yourself the quality of most documentary scripted, directed and postproduced by teenagers on Vimeo.com). But I guess, we’ll continue to see this shit surfacing from time to time.

There’ll always be producers who couldn’t care less about the quality of what they produce and don’t want to spend a cent making a TV Series or Movie and trech behind the old off-beat creativity excuse to sell a subpar production to the audience. If it happens to catch, they’ll make a huge (∞) return on their nil investment worthy of celebrating have a laugh over a few martinis.

But at least they’ll neither be laughing at me nor be paying any of these martinis with a cent gotten from me.

@abetancort wow. I didn't get any feel of The Blair Witch off this. Is it found footage or mockumentary that you dislike most? I felt this hit the look and feel of Making A Murderer and played on it very well.

I watch(ed) alot of zombie/slashers shit.
Iam dropping this tv show after 2 episodes.
Everything feels default, nothing unique about it.
Will rather rewatch the movies.

loading replies

@nextstep if ya don't have anything to watch I'd retry this, some great development and season 2 builds on it. Not better than a movie but on par and different enough.

Never into musicals but I am liking this show. It is fun and different and makes me laugh. The singing is entertaining and sounds good. I hope the ratings increase so that they will keep making it. Probably one the few shows I look forward to anymore.

loading replies

I'm loving it, I really hope it finds its audience. It would be a bigger hit on Netflix or somewhere online to stream it.

Don't get me wrong, it's great fun to watch! But what's with all the food waste?

They've gotten better at that in later seasons.

So far (ep. 3) it´s pretty boring, repetitive, slow, and don't see what the big deal is about.

@alex1798 I'd be interested in what you think of 4 & 5.

So season one of Legion has finished. Easily the best (non anime/comic) tv show currently running. Can't wait for more!

@razze I get ya, I really enjoyed the season, it didn't portray itself like a comic show we've seen so far so I thought ya missed the comic source material.

For a second I decided I'm gonna watch this for Leighton Meester. But I can't. It's too stupid and Adam Pally is too much of a douchebag. Not even Leighton Meester is worth this shit and that's saying something. The problem is not that it's a comedy. In my opinion if you want to do time travel you have to do it tongue in check. The problem is that the two main guys are so unlikable I can't watch it.

@galileo5 wait, so this has nothing to do with the people behind Another Period and Drunk History?
