Re: Joe Flaherty dead at 82

RIP Joe Flaherty.

He was wonderful in SCTV as was the rest of the cast.

When SCTV started out, it was difficult to find when it was being broadcast on my local East Coast stations since the...

Re: Shane MacGowan of the Pogues [Update: Dead at 65]

Yup. Not surprising.

Such a talented guy, but also so self-destructive.

He needed to pick up a few pointers from Keith Richards. (Or is all that drug/alcohol stuff about Richards merely a myth.)

Re: Ahsoka (S1E07) - “Part Seven: Dreams and Madness” - 9/26/23

Random guy?! Are you kidding me?

Word on the street is that Thrawn is quite the dynamo in the bedroom.

Re: Ahsoka (S1E08) - Finale - "Part Eight: The Jedi, The Witch, and The Warlord" - 10/3/23

Disappointing series. Better than Obi Wan and Boba Fett, but that's not a high bar to clear.

Cartoon level theatrics and storytelling through the entire series. Dumb ass villains with superior...

Re: Ahsoka (S1E07) - “Part Seven: Dreams and Madness” - 9/26/23

I knew that as soon as Ezra refused to take the lightsaber that the small band of good guys would triumph and beat the overwhelming number of bad guys...and do it without incurring any injuries....

re: Ahsoka (S1E05) - "Part Five: Shadow Warrior" - 9/12/23

For me, pretty dull stuff. Subpar script and acting. Sorely missing were the "baddies" in this episode, even for just a few scenes. Can't imagine spending the bucks to see this in a theater.

re: Ahsoka (S1E03) - "Part Three: Time To Fly" - 8/29/23

Had hopes that this series would be good, but the bland acting and poor writing just makes it worse as it goes on. (enemy spacecraft with guns and lasers that do none/minimal damage even when the...

Re: She-Hulk (S1E05) - Episode 5 - 9/15/22

I have not been a fan of this series due to its lack of seriousness, but I changed my expectations of what this series is about and enjoyed this episode quite a bit. Laughed at many scenes (the...

Re: She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (S1E04) - "Is This Not Real Magic?" - 9/8/22

I've always felt that Marvel injected enough humor into their "serious" comic books which made them stand out and be different from DC and other competitors.

I know that when Marvel went for...

Re: She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (S1E04) - "Is This Not Real Magic?" - 9/8/22

Well, this episode was...ah...different. Wish I liked different because the lame jokes didn't do much for me.

I did get a chuckle when the pediatrician oncology doctor dumped Jen because she...

Re: She-Hulk: Attorney at Law (S1E03) - “The People vs. Emil Blonsky” - 9/1/22

This third episode went off the rails for me. I don't mind comedy mixed in with the superhero stuff, but the comedy has to produce laughs--which it didn't for me.

Thankfully, it was short. I'll...

Re: Obi-Wan Kenobi (S1E06) - Finale - "Part VI" - 6/22/22

I think her anger was so great against Vader that she wanted to kill off every member of his blood line. (I believe she knows that Luke is Vader's son...)

I wasn't expecting the final episode to...

Re: Obi-Wan Kenobi (S1E05) - "Part V" - 6/15/22

Re: Obi-Wan Kenobi (S1E05) - "Part V" - 6/15/22

When Reva and the storm troopers breach the outpost and then go into full battle mode was one of the sloppiest battle sequences I've seen in quite a while. All that constant camera movement and...

Re: Obi-Wan Kenobi (S1E04) - "Part IV" - 6/8/22

If The Madalorian hadn't been released first and paved the way for how fresh and exciting a Star Wars TV show could actually be, I'd be more forgiving of Obi-Wan. As it stands now, Obi-Wan just gets...

Possible.

But Licorice Pizza will give it a run for its money.

Never saw his TV work, but enjoyed most of his film work--especially California Split from Robert Altman.

Re: Jeopardy! Discussion

Tuned in to see how Ken Jennings did on his first show as a game show host...as a game show host goes he was very bland. Glad they will be having other guest hosts come in.
