No Time Like The Present For An Entertainment Rant

 

I miss the old days when everyone knew all the same shows because we had so few of them. We got lots of cool miniseries in the old days and V was a gift to us because it consumed our entire lives. If you didn't watch that mini-series in Jr. High then you might has well just waked into the testing range because you were dead to us. But now I might know the name of the show you speak of but I have seen not one single second of it. I just have way way way too much choice.

 

I wish I have seen more anime than Attack on Titan. I love anime cosplay but I have to research the characters each and every time I see a new one.

I have seen very little of Breaking Bad. I will not watch El Cordoba.

I dropped Games of Thrones after Season One.

I have never seen Frozen.

I have only seen one or two Netflix movies - Overlord and Spectral.

I hate to binge watch anything even if I have the entire season in front of me.

I hate all live action Disney remakes. Dumbo is a horror show in live action.

Anyone who hates Star Trek Discovery doesn't know Star Trek at all.

I HATE Stranger Things just because of Millie Bobby Brown.

LIVE PD is the greatest show on TV. The ultimate evolution of COPS which I never thought was even possible.

I will never watch Carnival Row for the same reason. - only Cara Delevingne.

I have not nor will I ever watch E.T.

I will never watch another AVATAR movie purely out of spite. Cameron is a hack.

I won't watch the Joker.

I hate all competition shows except for the Amazing Race, Survivor and Big Brother USA.

I loath commercials. They steal time from my life. If I did the math, my head would explode.

I hate shows that stay on TV long past their prime. (NCIS and any sitcom more than five years old.)

I hate people who can't accept anything new remake shows based on a popular TV property because in THEIR universe, that's not the way it would have happened.

I hate syndicated comedies that drive the concept into the ground like How I Met Your Mother or Big Bang Theory. THE SAME JOKES EVERY EPISODE. They make me homicidal. I would rather watch he burning log or the aquarium channel.

I will only respect you as a human being if you have seen all 13 episodes of MATADOR and can discuss how great that show is without a hint of insincerity in their voices. I have yet to meet a person who has actually seen MATADOR but I KNOW it exists. It's not the Mandela Effect this time.

I hate torture porn movies masquerading as horror except for the SAW movies which are insanely creative.

I have never seen Peaky Blinders.

I will stop my day for Law and Order SVU or MASH reruns.

All the live action superhero shows on the CW would be FANTASTIC if they did a 'superhero' edit and cut out all that Jr. high school romance bullshit. And cut the episodes by a third. I watch none of them anymore except for the yearly movies like this year's Crisis On Infinite Earths.

I hate when some member of the cast has to be a person of color in the remake. The Last Fantastic Four movie and the current live action Little Mermaid, spring to mind. Not everything needs to be improved upon because at the time it was created, that was how the story was told. Live with it. Then go made yourself a movie as good as Black Panther which only had two white people in it and there was nothing wrong with that movie. But if you remade it and turned Killmonger into some blonde haired flavor of the week, you will hear the same complaint from me.

I hate that children today can't see SONG OF THE SOUTH. Might educate some of you Hillbillies as to the way things were back in the 1950s as far as the issue of racism was concerned. But Disney will never take it out of the vault.

Seth Meyers and Stephen Colbert are national treasures.

I love The View.

Saturday Night Live is only about 20 % funny most weeks, if that. But I still watch. Losing Leslie Jones broke my heart. I loves me a sassy black woman.

Never remake a show that was popular in the past. Magnum P.I. is a prime example. Hawaii 5-0 is a horrible boring show and you all know it if you were honest with yourself.

SNL is still only moderately funny no matter how much I cheer it on to be better it will always be a show produced by committee with only one vote that matters in the end and that vote hasn't made anyone laugh in 40 years. Weekend Update is still great, however.

I have never seen Archer.

I have never seen Phil and Marty

I hate house buying shows.

I hate house flipping shows.

I hate house repair show.

I hate the voices of female sports reporters. Always one octave lower than natural. It's deliberate and I hate that I figured it out and keeps me from enjoying sports news shows of any kind. The male voices are bad enough.
