Re: Last TV show you watched

Black Mirror Season 4. I watched the first two episodes. The first one doesn't have good plot. It's a mix of silly space game+good vs evil + a bit of I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream. Acting is strange. I root for the bad guy but the way it plays out is absurd.

The second episode is alright but it's the same technology from White Christmas and The Entire History of You. We've mother with control issue and rebellious teen. It's easy to see what gonna happen.

Another person's review of the entire season:


"Tell me how you want to die, and I'll tell you who you are. In other words, how do you fill out an empty life? With women, books, or worldly ambitions? No matter what you do, the starting point is boredom, and the end self-destruction. The emblem of our fate: the sky teeming with worms. Baudelaire taught me that life is the ecstasy of worms in the sun, and happiness the dance of worms."
---Tears and Saints, E. M. Cioran

Re: Last TV show you watched

I've almost finished season 4 of Black Mirror (just need to watch the 6th episode). I really like it so far. I thought the episodes were stronger than those of season 3.

I thought it was a mostly okay series, though nothing hit the heights of 15 Million Merits, White Bear and White Christmas.

Anthony Fantano's channel is a good one, even if I often disagree with him. I like his takedowns of dumb YouTube right-wingers:



I just watched an excellent episode of television: the Series 4 opener of Inside No. 9.

I just watched the last episode of Black Mirror season 4 - The Black Museum and thought it was outstanding - very horrific.

I make no apologies for having loved S1 of Star Trek Discovery. Best first season to a Trek show since TOS.

Re: Last TV show you watched

I was blown away by the first season of Mindhunter; it is like watching a ten-hour version of Zodiac.

Your fall should be like the fall of mountains. But I was before mountains. I was in the beginning, and shall be forever. The first and the last. The world come full circle. I am not the wheel. I am the hand that turns the wheel. I am Time, the Destroyer. I was the wind and the stars before this. Before planets. Before heaven and hell. And when all is done, I will be wind again, to blow this world as dust back into endless space. To me the coming and going of Man is as nothing.

I'm watching Britannia – new Sky drama about the Roman conquest of Britain. Daft shlock with cardboard characters and an acid folk element. Would be a guilty pleasure if I had any shame left.

Re: Last TV show you watched

Manhunt: Unabomber. It was pretty good, but apparently not entirely accurate. I was surprised with the episode that was sympathetic to Kaczynski’s background and reasons for his crimes. That one was particularly well done. Now, I’m rewatching Mindhunter, which is much better.
