I honestly have no idea if that show would be to your taste. It's corny as all **** and not much more than a soap opera with a budget, but if you can dig that then the show is pretty ****ing great, and it's entertaining to see just how they interpret Disney canon.

No I really liked the idea. Corny doesn't bother me - I told you, I'm watching Merlin and on one level that's pretty corny and I'm a fan of Reign, so I've form there - but I just lost the thread and then there were so many seasons to catch up on, I never got back to it. Maybe I will. From time to time I see the synopses for episodes and it looks hella fun.

Then you should totally get into it. For a while it was actually my favorite show on TV. At least as of season 4 it's still awesome, so get on that ****.

So The Punisher is fun. I'm only 3 episodes in so far, but so far it looks like the strongest contender among all the netflix marvel tv series.

Yeah, I'm on the 5th ep now, gotta say the pacing is nice

Ah. Not a good start. I'll give it an episode or two. I wonder how the guy who's playing Black Bolt is gonna manage, not saying anything? Easy to learn his lines, I guess!

I've been watchig Arrested Development lately. It's insane how good this show was and how poorly it did in the ratings, crazy to think that it only lasted three seasons while shows like The Simpsons decline for years and people will still watch. Glad Netflix brought it back, I'd heard that there was a plan for another season, but with Tambor being in the trouble he's in I think it'd be tough.

Dammit I didn't even think about the implications on Arrested Development... and they seem to be fixing the mistakes they made in season 4.
