Re: James Clavell's Shogun - Limited Series (FX) - premieres 2/27/24

He served them rabbit stew. At that time in Japan eating meat (meaning four-legged mammals) had been mostly banned for centuries. Oddly enough rabbits weren't considered "meat" since they were...

Re: James Clavell's Shogun - Limited Series (FX) - premieres 2/27/24

It's nice that the podcast is pretty short as well as they get right into it without wasting any time.

I might have to devolve to watching this show on FX as the quality on Hulu has been pretty...

Re: True Detective: Night Country (S4E04) — “Part 4” — 2/4/24

Yep. The 30-second skip button is getting heavy use these past few episodes.

Re: Masters of the Air (Apple TV+) — From Spielberg, Hanks, Goetzman — premieres 1/26/24

I must have missed that scene in all the chaos but many WWII fighters could carry wing-mounted unguided rockets. Americans mostly used them for ground attack but the Germans did use them against...

Re: True Detective: Night Country (S4E03) -- "Part 3" -- 1/28/24

The ending is going to be a big reveal that the stuck Ferris Bueller clip drove everyone insane so they stripped down and ran outside to get away from it.

Re: Masters of the Air (Apple TV+) — From Spielberg, Hanks, Goetzman — premieres 1/26/24

Yep and anyone with a spare few hundred bucks can take a ride in one pretty easily. No excuse for not having some real B-17 flying scenes although maybe they were worried that it would make the CGI...

Re: Masters of the Air (Apple TV+) — From Spielberg, Hanks, Goetzman — premieres 1/26/24

I've enjoyed it so far. This whole trilogy is special to me as I had relatives serving in the Marines in the Pacific, coming ashore on D-Day, and flying bombers and fighters out of England and not...

Re: True Detective: Night Country (S4E01) -- Season Premieres -- "Part 1" -- 1/14/24

I remember putting a snippet of the Saturn V launch on the Apollo 13 DVD on repeat to test my subwoofer. Probably depended on your player.

I'm so in on this show as I'm a sucker for anything set...

Re: Monarch: Legacy of Monsters (Apple TV+) - premieres 11/17/23

Other than Shaw would we really miss any of these people? I'm rooting for the giant monsters in this one.

Re: The Amazing Race Season 35 (CBS) Premieres 9/27/23

They had to go well north of downtown to get to Kenmore so the distance traveled was going to be the same. If anything their plan made a bit better sense since their final scramble would be closest...

Re: Loki (S2E03) - “1893” - 10/19/23

Finally watched this and it was by far my least favorite episode of Loki. Majors has always struck me as an over-acting theater student who had no business getting as big as he did. I did like them...

Re: The Winter King (MGM+) -- S: Iain De Caestecker -- Based on the King Arthur story -- Premieres 8/20/2

This is one of the few Bernard Cornwell series of books I haven't read so I'm going in blind. First episode was a bit confusing but it sure seems to be hitting all the usual Cornwell tropes so I'll...

Re: Warrior (Now on Max) -- From the creator of Banshee and Justin Lin

I'm guessing this will have to serve as a series finale given how Max is with the cancellation axe these days. One of my favorite shows in recent years.

Re: Justified: City Primeval (S1E04) - "Kokomo" - 8/1/23

That part kind of bums me out. I grew up in Detroit and decided to watch the show to catch some familiar sights but other than the establishing skyline shots everything is pure Chicago. Yes they're...

Re: Silo (Apple TV+) - S: Rebecca Ferguson - premieres 5/5/23

As much as I like the show you do have to turn off your brain as almost none of it makes any realistic sense. My list of nitpicks is a long one but the camera is near the top of that list. Unless...

Re: Silo (Apple TV+) - S: Rebecca Ferguson - premieres 5/5/23

What they show everyone on the big screen is a lie as well. It shows a ruined world that is still better than the actual outside world and hides the things they don't want them to see. When someone...

Re: From (MGM+) -- S: Harold Perrineau -- from EPs: The Russo Brothers & Jack Bender -- Premieres 2/20/22

Given that her reflection in the hospital window was of another person and the view looked overly enhanced I'm firmly in the "This is a simulation" camp and she somehow jumped to a different body and...

Re: From (MGM+) -- S: Harold Perrineau -- from EPs: The Russo Brothers & Jack Bender -- Premieres 2/20/22

I mostly enjoyed Season 2 but they've certainly taken a "Lost" level turn with the conclusion. I imagine that means that no satisfying answers will be forthcoming and it'll eventually come to a...

Re: Barry (HBO) - The Fourth and Final Season - premieres 4/16/23

I just wish they hadn't followed the shitty person playbook of having a kid they have no business raising. I'm all for everyone getting what's coming but that kid didn't ask for any of this.

Re: Ted Lasso (Apple TV +) -- S: Jason Sudeikis -- From the creator of Scrubs

This season is starting to feel like a slog. All of the new storylines are just retreads of things that were edgy a decade ago. The only part I'm enjoying is, surprisingly, the stuff with Nate.

Re: Perry Mason (HBO) - S: Matthew Rhys - premieres 6/21/20

Getting a beej while watching a newsreel about Emperor Hirohito is some next level kink.
