Stellar cast and some of the best visual effects you'll see outside of film, but some clunky pacing and action sequences keep it from being truly excellent.


Spot on. Top notch production and acting. I hope the second season improves on the pacing.

Late to the party. Just watched S1E1 of Gemstones. So damn funny


For the record I was referring to Foundation but gemstones is also excellent. :D

Pam & Tommy is pretty trashy but is decent, maybe? The casting and make up plus the work the two leads put in to play their parts look to be pretty bang on. Doesn't seem like they half assed anything about the show.

The part where Tommy was talking to his big fella cracked me up.

Lilly James has fully transformed into Pam and it's absolutely crazy.

I was a huge Robert Siegel fan after Big Fan and The Wrestler, but was totally baffled by his last movie. Kind of scared to check out Pam & Tommy.

I'd like to see Eric Andre as a guest but someone might actually die on set.

Kelley does good stuff. Currently Big Sky and Goliath, both great. I'm a little surprised he would do something that was already a successful movie but I'm looking forward to see what he do with it.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

Marshawn Lynch was delightful.

Conan showed his comedy chops quite well too.

Agree. Conan is just a really funny guy overall.

Between Pam and Tommy, Jackass, Euphoria, and Reacher I've seen more fictional dong this week than I have in every other week of watching movie and TV combined. So many penises.

Alan Ritchson is sooo good as Reacher. Very fun and satisfying show.

Spoiler:
I just finished it. Bear with me, I tend to watch through a philosophical & psychological lens. For me, it was a satisfying conclusion. That show was always weird, and they cranked it to 11 in the last season, but I said what you did a dozen times while watching (what the hell is this?). In the end, to me, it was about wanting to feel special, important, regardless of what it does to everyone around you. Call it selfishness, entitlement, narcissism, whatever, it was also a social commentary on where we are as humans (kind of like where the new Aziz special goes). I think the zombie choice is cliche but spot on. These characters were all trying to fill giant voids in their vapid lives. I like that it ended how it began, with her looking at a missing person poster. Dory wanted to help find someone but it was totally self-serving. They were all so selfish, which must have been fun to play. I never really loved any of the characters or the story but kept watching because I felt there was some humanity and a mirror there. It was definitely a series you had to keep an open mind about and certainly not perfect.

Anywho, that was long-winded and a slight ramble but I'm on day 5 of quarantine/isolation from my family so I have lots of time. I'm glad someone else watched that show. :)

The transformation that Book of Boba Fett has undergone the last couple episodes has been incredible and shocking.
