Almost at the end of the year. Final month. I have *a lot* of shows to still catch up on, so we’re just going to have to start making some tough choices. 8) The mole (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes I gave this episode a second shot, and I don’t think this show, or perhaps the accompanying audio description does a great job of establishing this large ass ensemble of nobodies that perform tasks. it becomes really hard to follow and try and pick up clues as to who might be shady enough to be The mole. I appreciate that … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 1st

This one is a riveting roundup between two shows. Which one beat out the other? It’s like the finale of a reality show. 2) Reboot (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes While there was nothing wrong with Reboot, in terms of the plot, or jokes, it was just up against an episode of Andor where there were real stakes, and emotional moments.Meanwhile, on Reboot, we saw a trip around the studio lot from a former child star’s perspective, lots of problematic workplace talk about scissoring, and Bri trying to figure out if she’s “sexually fluent”. Episode Grade: A 1) Andor (Disney … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 30th

Considering how busy i am, I’m actually quite surprised I got five shows in. Huzzah! 5) Rami (Hulu) English Audio Description Available?: Yes I was wondering when they were planning to circle back around and bring that character back into the show. Now, I know they are still around. Episode Grade: B 4) 4) Devil In Ohio (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes Oh, surprise of all surprises, the guy who won’t let girls out of his car is from the cult. Didn’t see that one coming. Wow. Huge surprise. I mean, just… Wow. I also learned today, you will not … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 29th

So, as usual, picking random shows and throwing them against each other creates for a very interesting lineup.once again, lack of audio description lost the battle. 5) The Great North (FOX/Hulu) English Audio Description?: No This time, interweaving plots that involved trying to keep a cactus alive, and another that was simply trying to get Judy to “bee-friend” the new super cool exchange student from Illinois who is oddly obsessed with bees just didn’t work for me. There were some good jokes, like the popular girl not even understanding her own sick burn or where it came from, but for … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 28th

Welcome back to the roundup. I managed three movies in addition to the shows below, so I’d say it was a fairly productive day. 6) Interview With A Vampire (AMC Plus) English Audio Description?: No So, I’m going to continue to review content from AMC Plus, as they have made a sliver of audio description available, and they need to know why it’s important to continue moving forward. There is not a single reason this show shouldn’t have audio description. It’s a huge new gamble for AMC, one that earned a second season pickup early on, and comes from a … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 27th

So, only five titles today, but i also knocked out three films with reviews to come. 5) Little Demon (Hulu) English Audio Description?: No When I have five shows, and only one of them did not have audio description, but I generally liked all five, then the show without audio description ends up losing out. This episode saw Chrissy trying to help a friend through mind control gone horribly awry, while her parents found common ground over a dog they used to own together called Bark Wuffalo. And if you haven’t already named your dog that, you have failed. I … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 26th

How did you spend your Black Friday? Binge watching? Supposedly 30% of American’s don’t buy anything this weekend. At least, that was what some guy on the news said. (his actual statement was that 7 out of 10 Americans will buy something this weekend, I just reversed it). I was in that 7 of 10, and i still got my Roundup done. 7) Acapulco (Apple Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes You know, I think I’m just going to let this one go. Four episodes in, and it’s not clicking with me. Episode Grade: C+ 6) Unsolved Mysteries (Netflix) English Audio … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 25th

I used my Thanksgiving wisely. Not only did I knock off nine programs (plus jeopardy, which i don’t rank), but I also watched three movies. Satisfying indeed. 9) Star Trek Lower Decks (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes So, the only reason this hit the bottom is that I’m sitting here right now, and I’m trying to recall everything I watched yesterday, and i literally cannot remember anything about this episode. Not one thing. So, I guess it wasn’t memorable enough like some of the other episodes. So weird. Maybe I watched too much TV yesterday? Episode Grade: B- 8) … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 24th
