troyness Posted November 30, 2023 Posted November 30, 2023 Just getting through the first season of Dark. A German series (2017) Creepy music, atmospheric build. Fleshed out characters. Non spoiler context: past, present & future happens simultaneously. If U want a break from Hollywood schtick... check it out. Quote
electric indigo Posted November 30, 2023 Posted November 30, 2023 Dark had great world building and character arcs, but the concept got very bloated in the later episodes. There are some graphics avaible if you really want to untie the knot of the timelines. It still comes to a satisfying solution IMO, unlike the recent time loop based "Bodies" on Netflix. Quote

Expand I’m tired of the usual time and multiverse stuff, so I’ll probably skip it unless I hear it’s really great, but so far it sounds like just another of the same gimmicks Quote
TangledThorns Posted November 30, 2023 Posted November 30, 2023 DARK is a great series and thankfully new viewers don't have to wait between mid-season breaks, lol. Quote

Expand I remember the first time watching it and we had the weird reaction of”Look, it’s the guy from Fist of the Northstar!!!”. that show ended up getting so popular that I’m pretty sure it ends up the other way around when people accidentally find Fist of the Northstar Quote
Tking22 Posted January 13, 2024 Author Posted January 13, 2024 Sopranos is still my number one favorite show ever on TV, followed closely by The Wire. Quote
derex3592 Posted January 13, 2024 Posted January 13, 2024 My favs in no particular order of action/sci-fi/drama are LOST, (well the 1st 3 seasons anyway) / New BSG / Breaking Bad and of course ST TNG / DS-9. I'm curious to see if Sopranos makes the list! Quote

Expand My family and my ex-gf's family (very Italian) at the time used to make a Sunday night of it by having dinner then watching the newest episode of The Sopranos. Quote
Thom Posted January 16, 2024 Posted January 16, 2024 Love the sound and some real awesome visuals. Quote
505thAirborne Posted January 16, 2024 Posted January 16, 2024 I will say that the 1/1 Scale B-17's they built (2 of them) look very convincing for all of the ground crew/maintenance scenes, I'm still iffy about the CGI, it looks a bit off to me but in 11 days we'll find out if this series was worth the wait, it's pushing 14 years since THE PACIFIC released.

derex3592 Posted January 19, 2024 Posted January 19, 2024 Ok,......this MIIIIIGGGGHHHHT be enough to get me back into the world of The Walking Dead. Looks pretty good. Quote
Big s Posted January 19, 2024 Posted January 19, 2024 My lady loves the walking dead. She’s waiting for all the shows to finish and then add the amc subscription to binge them all. I’m personally not into them and she watches them while I’m asleep. It’s really weird to be woken up by constant zombie moans. Quote
electric indigo Posted January 22, 2024 Posted January 22, 2024 Another Ripley, they trailer is cool. Quote

It definitely has its moments, but it felt a little like certain story and character elements could’ve used some work. Overall, it’s not bad and I’ve been craving churros ever since Quote
electric indigo Posted January 23, 2024 Posted January 23, 2024 Will finish season 2 of "For All Mankind" tonight and I'm on the edge already. Quote
