Family Guy and King of the Hill. Both rewatches from Episode 1. They’re honestly pretty good on their own, without the need to be funny.

Marathon ran Strange Angel.
I approve. I think that it's a slow, progressive starter, but I appreciate it for what it is because that story needed to be told (and retold) again. I think I first heard about it around about a decade ago. I only found out about the show through passing in between with a co-worker of mine.

I was a little on the fence at first but I’m starting to dig this show.

King of the hill is one of my all time favorite shows. I've seen every episode several times.

New F is for Family. Love junk food animation and Bill Burr is my favorite comedian, just as good as previous seasons so far.

There are probably a bunch of episodes I haven’t seen, and I still felt like the decision to cancel the show was premature.

Been going through the 1st season of Blacklist. I'm enjoying it tho some of the acting is cringy.

Added after seeing the whole series: This is, by far, one of the best shows I have seen in a while. It is about a different submarine so it is not a repeat of the movie but the plot and acting are as good as the movie. And the last scene...beautiful twist.

Watched "Titan Games". Good stuff. Makes me want to be a titan. Although it is fun that the song used in the opening was a Melodifestivalen
Song contest runner up. Maybe the Rock is a Eurovision fan :).

Watched the first episode of Killer Mike's show. El-P's hilarious douchiness was the most redeeming thing about it tbh. I didn't have very high expectations for it anyways.

heard thats a good show^

loving this show. louie anderson is a gem.

I find the last interviews with him just before being executed reinforce the idea that sociopaths are kind of uninteresting to talk to. They're just too focused on pretense to actually have any merit in getting meaningful discussion from. It's interesting to watch them speak but as far as getting any kind of mutual connection through ideas it's a complete wash. You're really just looking for kinks in their sociopath armor.

Speaking of Netflix docs, I've been watching Evil Genius, which is about the Brian Wells case where he was forced to rob a bank (among other things) in order to deactivate the bomb around his neck. It's pretty fascinating.

Proto-Suicide Squad?

The concept of superheroes is romanticization of extra-judicial justice though. If it's not regular humans beating up criminals to get info it's superhumans taking information out of the equation to essentially be cartoon big brother. Or doing both.

Superheroes in a real sense is a ****ed concept. It has "good" relevance in the sense of expressing the desire for justice in the face of the systemic injustice that exists in every society that people recognize and feel powerless in the face of. But there's no way to divorce that from the fascist desire for a strong person to solve your problems for you.

This is why you don't take superhero stories literally as if they have any immediate answer to your problems. This is how we get police officers with Punisher skull stickers on their cars. So just forget about the stupid elements.

Yes, on the one hand it is the desire of the people to rectify the inability of society of the state, not only to solve crime, but to decide what the citizen's relation to crime is. Is the citizen's relationship to crime as a victim, as a fighter, or as a solver. The difference between the last two being the crux. Are you taking up the cause of the victims or are you taking up the cause of making society function properly?
The problem of the superhero is that it encourages you to ignore the idea of the solver because of course you want to side with the victim. You want to take them by the shoulders and assure them that it won't happen again. And then you physically turn away from them and screw up your face to deal with the perpetrator, with the assumption that you are keeping your feelings with the victim and not the perpetrator.

Look at my avatar. This choice does not come from a desire to solve problems. This comes from a desire to see conflict. This comes from a desire to ignore the plight of the victim once I have seen it and now I can commence to make war as is raw and manly. This avatar comes from a desire to solve crime by way of satisfaction. Watching Daredevil beat the **** out of criminals comes from exactly the same place no matter how ****ing awesome it is.

idk if i would call his urges uncontrolled - he had to get himself blackout drunk in order to carry out his attacks.

I find it rather hard to keep myself from getting quite drunk on a regular basis tbh. Like really quite drunk, even blackout drunk at times. It's kinda hard to even convince myself that I should try to stay reasonably drunk. It's not even an issue of convincing myself generally, just if my metabolism makes me super drunk or I don't even remember drunk. If I had an uncontrollable urge behind my thoughts then perhaps sobriety might be a paper tiger where bringing it up as a possible hindrance to my urges might be like saying that you should keep your legs closed if you don't want to get pregnant.

Just make the switch to hard liquor and your ability to get quite drunk gets a 3 year extension. Tune in next week for another update on how to be a quasifunctional alcoholic.

LMAO are you equating murder and necrophilia with having casual sex

Yes in fact I am and I am asking you how much you understand about either and how you would judge the uncontrollability of the urges of a serial killer. Like, on a one to ten scale of... a scale of some sort. How would you rate Ted Bundy?

25/30

Seems legit but I'll need nudes to verify.

sorry i don't send nudes to hotmail accounts

Is Louie portraying a female?

#QuotedForTruth Nice analogy :beer:

Real talk, do you fantasize about such events occurring? Do you dream about being a vigilante? There are real-life vigilante super heroes! I remember watching the Wayans brothers movie "Blank Man" as a kid and loving it LOL.

Why not reduce it to 5 / 6?

Seconded. I am EXTREMELY disappointed in you! You claim that your breasts are SO big that you would seek out surgery to reduce them. And yet, you only post pics from the neck, up. It's a wee bit fishy!

Season 3 sucked. Not sad it got cancelled.

The decision to separate the main cast, taking out all the human elements of Daredevil's life, and replace them with ninjas, was perhaps a poor decision. Everything to do with the Punisher was hardcore as **** though.

I want someone to confirm that.
Some **** was so tedious that I had to skip whole scenes.

I was just reading about all that, trying to make sense of wtf I was watching. It's been a few decades since I've read a Daredevil comic, so I've had to do a little catching up.

Corny but still rockin, and when eventually she was recognized as crazy as **** but still Daredevil's lobster she became very charming. I'm just bummed her costume never got gud. I know the classic Elektra costume would look kinda ridiculous in the TV series but at least something that resembled it would have been nice.

I've only seen part of it tbh but I don't remember disliking it. It was bogus that the followup with Elektra happened in The Defenders though. Like, once I realized I'd missed a lot of Daredevil's character arc cause I hadn't watched it I got kinda pissed off.

The Punisher didn't start out in Daredevil. He started out in Spider-Man actually. But basically in season 2 of Daredevil (before season 1 of Punisher) he just shows up, starts massacring gang members and putting them on meat hooks, and it's ****ing brutal as ****. He's actually acting like The ****ing Punisher so you don't see a buildup of him going all Punisher, he just is the Punisher. BTW if you actually want to get a handle on Punisher in modern comics I'd say Garth Ennis' Punisher MAX series is a good way to go.

That's about where I left it after reading a couple articles. Not sure if I'll be grabbing any rags to thumb through, but if I do I appreciate the heads-up.

Karen was arguably the main character of season 2 and pretty great.

She's the one who actually does the leg work to figure things out and is very likeable while Daredevil fights boring ninjas.

It saved the Daredevil part of the season but the best part was always the Punisher half and Karen was the lynch pin of that. She was the one who uncovered everything and she was the one through which the audience related to him.

Hells yes Arrow season 2 is ****ing amazing. Deathstroke is great and the series took itself to the next level. When Arrow was in it's first two seasons it was hands down my favorite series on television. I've only seen up to halfway through season 3 and it didn't seem like it was building on that so much as capitulating to the shipping demands of the fanbase. I don't know anything about how the rest of the series is viewed but the dip in quality of season 3 just felt like jumping the shark from which a series doesn't recover.

Yeah, there are good parts.
And then there are like a hundred long-ass scenes of him sitting around in his ****ing church exchanging the same boring platitudes with priestguy/nungal.
And of course a whole episode centered on Karen's backstory. Because we clearly needed that.

I'm halfway through the Bundy Tapes and it's really well made. I'm too used to documentaries trading provocative content for quality, glad that this one aims for both.

Also lol @ the judge decrying the loss of humanity that Bundy wrought...because he didn't become a lawyer. That's so America.
