kelley 772 Posted January 5 Report Share Posted January 5 Why didn’t any of you tell me how good Schitt’s Creek is. We have burned thru the first two seasons. Camp 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'll tell you why Schitt's Creek didn't get any play. I remember watching the first trailers and it looked terrible. Like, really, really bad -- a corny and childish mess. I'm very surprised it has received such acclaim. They must have reformed it, or else the original trailers were just very poorly done, and not at all indicative of the seeming brilliance of the show. (327) Schitt's Creek Season 1 Trailer - YouTube I do plan on watching it now that I've heard it's good. Carlos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I binged all 6 seasons recently and there's some seriously funny shit on the show. Dan Levy in particular is hilarious. It's very much a fish out of water setup but its 4 fish out of water in a very fucked up situation and they use the setup well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Camp 282 Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 Better than the humor is the arc the series takes from a mildly bumbling and generic sitcom (season 1) to a stealth vehicle for love, openness, and acceptance. It ends up being a lot more than just a few laughs. Romier S 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dimness 287 Posted January 11 Report Share Posted January 11 I'll put this on my to watch list. Finally got around to The Queen's Gambit. They did the Hollywood thing again where part of the story takes place in location, but they actually filmed in another. New Circle Road my ass. It got the same reaction from me when I'm watching the movie Kentucky Fried Movie, you see a shot of the Statue of Liberty, but the title says Hong Kong. It's that same feeling.

JoeyN 1,274 Posted January 11 Author Report Share Posted January 11 Almost every every movie that says NYC... The subways are always wrong, or the put elevated trains in places where there are none. Or when the local hospital and Burger King here in queens,ny everyday were in Chicago for The Big Sick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That was my first-ever boob sighting in a movie when I was a wee lad. jubjub75, Dan B., Magness and 2 others 3 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dimness 287 Posted January 12 Report Share Posted January 12 I'm not really slagging it. You got to love a movie where the most horrifying thing in the world is to send someone to Detroit. That and the slideshow where you refer to someone as being tough and ruthless... only to follow up with a description that says rough and toothless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magness 465 Posted 22 hours ago Report Share Posted 22 hours ago Wandavision - I watched the opening 2 episodes but, it’s not a great start IMO. Very “goofy” in tone with no explanation at all but I am curious to see where it’s going. The Stand - I’m only 3 episodes in but it’s not bad so far. I can’t say its really amazing or anything and I don’t like all the jumping around to different times but, not bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Very “goofy” in tone with no explanation at all but I am curious to see where it’s going. It's odd, for sure. I don't have a lot of fond memories for that era of Yank TV sitcoms as I have little history with them. My wife's digging it more than I expected (mainly because of the Bad Mom's connection and her love of I Love Lucy). I have zero history with the alleged inspiration comics. But I'll keep watchin'.
