oooo, dark Jeff. Looks interesting.

This is just embarrassing at this point.

so pumped they got Death from Sandman in this, means they're still working on S2 of that show.

Which, if you didn't know, is on BluRay so you should find a copy while you can still do that with physical media.

Watched this new series a couple of times over the last week, it’s absolutely nuts.

It’s based on a true story of the creator who was stalked by someone, and it really doesn’t pull its punches.

Baby Reindeer was really intense. Pretty devastating. Not really sure how to prepare someone for that, but it’s a heavy experience. I’m surprised it’s as popular as it is.

Gave up on Behind Her Eyes after 3 slow burn episodes, read what happens in the rest of the series, and was glad that I did lol.

It's one of the best shows I've ever seen that I absolutely cannot recommend to people.

Definitely worth the watch, but perhaps best if you are a little older and/or have consumed the first two and thoroughly enjoy the genre. And don't mind your cinematic icons/heroes getting along in years. Soundtrack an 80s delight!

I agree. I thought it was a lot of fun. Nothing groundbreaking, but a fun way to fill two hours.

Finished off That 90s Show Part 2 this morning... it made me laugh. I'll take laughing over not laughing.

Good cameos and I liked that bit with that song from Reality Bites especially (keeping some vagueness about it).

Holy crap. For as bad as S3 of The Umbrella Academy was, S4 says hold my mother effin' cosmo and watch us commit actual sins against the show bible.

A bible, also known as a show bible or pitch bible, is a reference document used by screenwriters for information on characters, settings, and other elements of a television, film or video game project.

I haven't felt so much disdain for every character on a show since we tried watching The Time Bandits on Apple+ but here at least there's three previous seasons of "well let's see where they go". Where do they go? everywhere but not for any real reason, just because they needed to fill out 6 episodes instead of the original 10. And even then the thing feels bloated!

Absolutely nothing about this season was good. Five? usually a really fun character to watch but not here. Klaus? Hey what if we took away all of his growth from the past three seasons and instead made him Howard Hughes that gets pimped out?

I can't believe that Gerard Way said "ok lets do this". Honestly it was like the last season of GoT in that the television series out-paced the books and so they made something up and it makes you retroactively wonder if the whole series is bad.
