Holy Mother of God! Why did no-one explain Into the Badlands to me? I don’t know if it’s good, but by god, it is splendid. Who the hell came up with “Southern Gothic Samurai shot in a Hong Kong Action style” anyhow?

I've only had time to half-watch a single episode, otherwise I may have recommended it.

Who the hell came up with “Southern Gothic Samurai shot in a Hong Kong Action style” anyhow? Right?! Like right?! I lurve that the aesthetic and lore of that show. New widow, kinda made me sad, but still... <3 (I totes wanted my Desert of Despair PC to be a The Widow-Jess Jones mash-up, because why the eff not?)I'm staring at the screen because I want to like your post, like, 6 bajillion times @fredix. #proboardsfail

Is it me or has Blacklist lost something in finally answering the obvious last season? Aaron BTW: The Gifted - rocks, Gotham - yes, proto-bats at last, Inhumans - disappointing, very disappointing.

Started watching "the last man on eath" but stopped because of cringe and too many people.
One lone man - good.
One man and one on woman - still good.
One man and two women - cringe but barely watchable.
Two men and two women - hell no.

Been catassing Enterprise. Netflix is carrying Discovery in Japan, and it turns out that they have the rest of the series as well.
I never saw enterprise, so this has been really enjoyable.

Except the terrible theme song. Yes, 100% agree. That song is way, way out of left field. And Netflix doesn't have the "Skip theme song" embedded data for Enterprise, so it's always seven 10-second forward jumps after "It's been a loooooong road…"Fortunately, the show is really good!

Stranger Things 2. I’ve been trying to pace myself, but Oh. My. God. It’s like my favorite thing! Two episodes in, it’s holding up to season 1. If you liked season 1, your gonna love the new run.

We're on Episode five. Double nostalgia! Both for the 80s and for last year, discovering it for the first time. It's Great!

Before it was over I had laughed and shed tears. My only regret is that its over and I have no more new episodes to watch.

You could always start a CoC campaign with kids as characters!

You could always start a CoC campaign with kids as characters! Been working on a homebrew hack for World of Darkness: Innocents to update it to Chronicles of Darkness rules after season 2 of Stranger Things. I liked season 2 but no where near as much as the first season. I think the characters are evolving great, and I loved Dustin and Steve's arcs, as well as the new characters of Bob and Kali. Pacing seemed off, though, and episode seven could have been cut without affecting the story in any meaningful way.
