The TV thread

I like B Positive. Not sure why, but the female lead is just so appealing. Linda Lavin is great too. I like The Neighborhood too. I recognize nutty are great shows, but they're watchable

 

I suggested a sub board dedicated to TV shows.
Hopefully...

 

I figured Mom would be canceled since Anna Faris left.

I enjoy Young Sheldon. I know it gets hate but it's a fun little half hour show.

Anyone watch Mr. Mayor? I've heard friends that really enjoy it and I'm a sucker for Ted Danson.

 

Mr. Mayor is wonderful, but it's basically West Coast 30 Rock. I consider 30 Rock an A+, and Mr. Mayor more of a B+.

 

Whatever awards Winslett is up for, she’s probably going to win them.

 

That F1 Netflix series is fun; sorry if this was mentioned long ago. Great inside stuff.

 

Now into Season 7 of "Suits." Getting monotonous. They shout at each other, threaten everybody, lie, apologize, then lie again. I'm trying to power through it just so I can move on to something else. As a side note, Sarah Rafferty (Donna) rises to the top of my all-time favorite redheads list.

 

I eventually dropped it because the show just got sooooo up its own ass with its own drama. Like, how many times can we see Jessica salvaging the practice, Louis attempting to backstab his way to power, and Harvey doing whatever he wants? I liked the show better when it was more focused on Case of the Week, with some development of relationships on the edges.

 

I’m just going to throw this in here.

Axios reported this morning that Roku allegedly sent out an email to its users saying that users might lose access to YouTubeTV because Google is demanding preferential search results and other things.

Here’s the screenshot of the email, lifted from Axios’ story:



I’m not linking to the story for one simple reason: I’ve been a Roku user since 2014 and I’m a longtime subscriber to YouTubeTV, but I didn’t get any such email. One thing that jumps out to me here is that the email repeatedly refers to “YouTube TV” when the service’s name is YouTubeTV.

I can’t prove Axios got played here, but you’d think that 1) I’d have gotten this email this morning, and 2) that the email would’ve spelled YouTubeTV’s name correctly.

Something smells funny. Or maybe something smells phishy.

 

The Lasso preview has me worried.

 

My main problem with the show was seeing lawyers walk into meetings with clients or adversaries without a briefcase, or even pen and paper.

 

It's legit. I got the email this morning.
