Here’s what I did on my day off:
This list is accurate but it fails to emphasize just how much Futurama was watched.
I mean… I watched a shit-load of Futurama today.
Fear the Walking Dead is just so bad. I don’t want to give examples that would spoil the show for some poor masochist trying to self torture but…
What the fuck? How? How can writing this bad make it all the way to the screen? Why aren’t the show running moron twins putting a stop to this before it gets out of the writers room? Why isn’t the network putting a stop to it before it leaves the editing room?
Good lord how is this level of shit even possible? It’s like they are fucking with us and just trying to see how bad they can get. Really. What the fuck???
I just got through the cold open of tonight’s Fear the Walking Dead. It was all exposition but the signs are already pointing to this being the worst episode yet. Wow.
I said a prayer to Dionysus (the Greek god of theater) that it’s not as bad as it seems, but just as I was typing that last sentence my AMC live stream failed.
That sounds like an omen to me.
The guitar was played today. That’s two days in a row. Glorious.
Yesterday I worked on four songs for the November Music thing. Today I worked on two songs for the re-recording thing. I wasn’t very good, but I didn’t suck too much. That was nice.
Okay, time to go cook dinner for the love of my life and then maybe do something else. She’s working today and I did a little cleaning to go along with the guitar playing and there is some stuff in the works for the cellar and shhhh I can’t tell anyone yet but shhhhh stop talking about it you moron.
Walking Dead spin offs tonight. Hate watch Fear then actually watch World Beyond? Yeah, I might do that. Or I might not. I don’t know. I’m sure when the hate watch starts I’ll post a bitch-fest post or two. Ya’ll have that to look forward too.
Rock and roll, zombified boys and girls.
I think I’ve run out of episodes for every TV show I had been watching that isn’t affiliated with The Walking Dead.
Now what?
Jen and I have been working through Big Band Theory again and I’ve been watching Futurama as sort of background noise.
We watched Lansky tonight. It was good. Not great. We both felt it should have focused on more specific things rather than give a broad overview with a lot of extraneous distractions.
Now what? We don’t get a new Marvel show for a couple of weeks and we don’t get a Star Wars show for over a month. Squid Game is out there. I’ll get to it. New seasons of You and Lock and Key are out, but the last season of each of them didn’t really do it for me. I’ll still probably get to them.
I don’t know what else to check out. Im going to have to do some digging around.
This is the greatest thing that has ever happened to YouTube, The Simpsons, or (The) Pink Floyd.
One Simpsons clip to describe every single Pink Floyd record. Some are a touch too obvious (Animals) but some (looking at you, Atom Heart Mother and A Saucerful of Secrets) are so spot on it’s literally terrifying. Also, you will all finally understand what the hell was going on in The Final Cut.
The first teaser trailer for The Book of Boba Fett is out.
How do I say, “Yes” in such a way as to demonstrate how much Yes I am feeling as I watch this?
I just saw the best part of this week’s episode of Fear the Walking Dead.
The best part was when it ended and World Beyond started. Not that World Beyond is any artistic triumph or anything. At its worst it’s still head and shoulders better than Fear.
Spoilers. Not really story spoilers but still spoilers.
Like a schmuck I did it again. I kicked off Sunday’s Fear the Walking Dead again. I only got four minutes in last time and it was awful. I’m 15 minutes in and it’s worse.
My favorite part is the claim that a fucking Ford Pinto in safe from nuclear radiation. Really. They said that. Also, within the blast zone of a nuclear bomb the roads are still clear and passable. Also, they stripped the car of everything that it doesn’t need in order to make it lighter and faster but they left the cassette deck.
What the fuck, writers?
Also, the worst show in history has a nearly constant screaming baby. Our entire existence as human beings is programmed to not be able to stand the sound of a crying baby and the worst show on television fills the first quarter of the episode with a crying baby. It’s like they are fucking with us on purpose now. They are actively trying to make us hate the show now.
Self torture, thy name is Robert.
Fudge.
I just watched last night’s episode of Walking Dead World Beyond. My spoiler free review of the episode? Meh. Just like all of the World Beyond episodes. It’s not terrible, it’s just dull.
That’s it, right? End of post, right?
I am a moron at heart so no, that’s not it. Four minutes ago I started last night’s episode of Fear the Walking Dead. It’s already one of the dumbest things I ever watched. In the previously on recap we watched two characters out-run a nuclear bomb blast. No, seriously. That happened. They out ran a nuclear explosion. Seeing that on the recap ties this episode for the dumbest episode in television history. It’s tied with the episode the scene originally came from.
Last night when 9:00pm came along I told myself I was done. Completeness be damned, I was not going to watch that idiotic, terrible, horrible, no good show again (unless I go back and rewatch season one through three, especially three which was friggin brilliant)… and now here I am watching the new episode.
Friggin idiot.
ADDENUM: Saved by the unconscionably shitty AMC app. I started watching on my laptop. It worked fine. After the last post I thought I’d get into bed and watch the rest on my iPad using the AMC app. Last nights episode is only available if you’re logged in. I refuse to create an AMC account so that’s out. I then tried to watch in a browser. It won’t load the episode. Fuck. You.
