Movies / TV General Discussion

[Gone2Three]

Married With Children, I watch it every morning while having my bagel and coffee..Theres something i find endearing and lovable about the show and also i sympathize for the Al Bundy's of the world.....:Shrug: Extra bonus when i turn it on my Wife leaves the room...I don't think theres a Woman alive that will watch that show..

Ah yes...the Bundy's, classic American sitcom. Some great comedic talent. And Christina Applegate was easy on the eyes. definitely one that Michele didn't care for..she doesn't like crude humor
Even the opening song... Love and marriage lol

So how was it? I hear it's a great show...we've got so many that we're trying to keep up on that this slipped our viewing.

We enjoy it. James Spader is amusing. Now that the programs are back from season breaks, there's too many we'd like to watch and some have conflicting time slots.
Monday-Gotham.Kevin can wait. Odd Couple. Scorpion. And Better Call Saul is back soon.
Tuesday- Agents of Shield. Flash. Bull. This is us.
Wednesday-Criminal Minds. Designated Survivor.
Thursday- Big Bang Theory. The Blacklist.
Friday- Last Man Standing. Grimm. Hawaii 50. Bluebloods.
Sunday-Walking Dead.

Lol...that's quite the line up. Michele said y'all had good taste in shows. There were only a few that she doesn't watch...but not for a lack of trying. :laugh: me personally watch a handful of you list. Mainly The Walking Dead and Fear the Walking Dead. I'm fan of Gotham, A O Shileld, odd couple :AllGood:

Ma and I went to see Manchester by the Sea. I may be a little dense, but it was a great flick to sleep thru, IMHO

It was her pick originally, but it didn't live up to the hype in her opinion. Gotta give her props though, she didn't wake me...:laugh:

Michele said thanks...we're going to wait then until it's on dvd.

Lol...your lucky, I usually get a sharp jab to the arm if I doze off...but I'm usually snoring :cxtv:

Sherlock

Hey so I happened to overhear a conversation at work about a series called Sherlock...something big happened in the opening if the 4th season that has everyone a buzz. Has anyone watched the show...Any good? I've set it up to record but since it's already into the 4th season didn't want to start viewing if it wasn't worth the time.

I'm waiting for more commercials. If they add another 5 minutes more of commercials to each hour of programming I can ditch that screen in the corner, my recliner and about 20lbs.

 

[Pegasus1300]

Anybody seen Hacksaw Ridge? Very hard to watch but very well done and a great true story.

Thank you Brother Mike for stopping in...I agree! it's hard to endure the onslaught of advertisements. I do however like seeing the food commercials see what I'm missing out on while eating my turkey sandwich on stale bread

Hello Paul :wave4: ...yes indeed. My wife and I went when it opened. I do think it to be award worthy. If y'all missed it make the effort to rent it later on.

:Agree:
We figure that with all the commercials in 1 "show" that the actual segment is really maybe 20 minutes worth. And yet cable tv price continues to climb even with all those commercials to pay for it....

 

[LadyonaMission]

Tonight I will be watching the 2017 CFP National Championship game. :wave:

Benedict Cumberbatch is a gifted actor and plays Sherlock as zany as ever! Each episode is adifferent mystery case with a continuing underlying story thread. The underlying story just got jolted with the second episode and the storyline got curiouser and curiouser!!

Because of the Presidents' farewell speech, the time slot has been moved for This is Us and it's on the same time as Agents of Shield.:gah: Obama still continues to mess with me!!!

This is a great series, I like the way it transitions through their past and present lives. We're just now on ep5 and have been recording the rest. I'll let Michele know so we can cancel the timer... Don't want to waste the space on the hard drive with Obama's speech. :gah:

In my area, the commercials at the movies are just as long and annoying. It would be tolerable if I didn't have to pay good money on top of what they make for ads. The last dvd I rented was just as bad. Boo... Hiss...

:Agree: Yep, we've started getting there just as the movie previews start. Skipping the "first look" commercials....they seem to be adding more of them lately :gah:

So what dvd movie did you not like? Let us know.. Your opinion matters here ThumbUp

It has been so long since we've watched a dvd, I can't remember. Our son put us on his netflix acct so we've been watching that. We liked TV series "Damages", "Longmire", "Alias", "Nakita", "Hell on Wheels".

Michele and I watched Longmire but thought they cancelled it back last year. Did Netflix pick it up for reruns...or is it new season?

When Better Call Saul returns, looks like Gus Fring is going to be part of it.

I still remember him from the series Revolution... Glad he's making a comeback in the new season here :clapping:

Netflix picked it up and added season 5. I don't know whether or not they're going forward with it. I sure hope they do. We enjoyed it.

One of my favorite movies is Dazed and Confused, (from 1993!) Except for the hazing, that whole movie could be a documentary of my High School years. Virtually every character in that film had a real life counterpart in my youth. Only the names have been changed to protect the guilty...

One of my favorite movies as well...filmed here in Austin. Richard Linklater did an awesome job of tapping into that time period...connecting with the audience and bringing them back to those good times growing up. He's done another movie called Everybody Wants Some this last year taking us back o the early 80's ...

So while I was working today Michele rented and watched Deepwater horizon.We didn't get to see it in the theater and she loves Mark Wahlburg. I've still not seen it...(maybe next time ) :gah: She highly recommends it for those of you that like the action disaster film's. Of course it is based on the true story of the 2010 Deepwater Horizon explosion and oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. They pay tribute to the crew members lost at the end of the film.
