A busy day, but I’m never too busy to at least tell you my opinions on a few shows. 5) 5) Little Demon (FX/Hulu) English Audio description?: No In a very strong and tight race, the show that loses out first is the one without audio description. While this show has funny moments written in the dialogue that work no matter what, it has consistently proven that it also has the challenge of fighting numerous demon fight sequences. Someone is always getting murdered, obliterated, chopped, or otherwise maimed, and in those more action heavy sequences is how this actually potentially … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 5th

Let me tell you, that insistently fighting with streaming services for audio description feels very much like shouting at the wind, but i do intend on continuing to do it. Because, one day, the wind might just answer back. For those interested, I’m still in an over two month negotiation (it certainly feels like at this point) with Paramount Plus. Also, I reached out to Roku over their lack of audio description for Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, and was told it was not available at launch, but *should be* available at a *later date*, so, basically the most non … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 4th

Six shows today. The number one was the easiest choice I had to make in a long time. 6) Star Trek: Lower Decks (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes I mean, sure. But, the jokes weren’t earned. Not to spoil the joke, but two have two competing ships and memebers from them working on a common goal project, to have the members of the other ship be rude and dismissive, but then turn around later and say that they weren’t being that, they just think our Lower Decks team is awesome, and legendary, was… illogical, to paraphrase a Vulcan. They … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 3rd

Had a great time yesterday, and managed to knock out six shows. So, let’s talk about them. 6) The Patient (Hulu) English Audio Description?: No Hlu’s persistence in not providing audio description for the remaining episodes (I’m even watching these late), is killing this show. Ironic, for a show about a serial killer, but irony is not Hulu’s strong suit. This episode featured long quiet moments where I couldn’t tell what was going on at all. There was a scene that featured Steve Carell’s character crying out, but I guess based on the reactions later on, that was a dream? … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 2nd

We’re already at November? My God. You know, I saw a Christmas advertisement on Halloween? That’s a bit much, right? Now we’ll just leapfrog Thanksgiving, and it’s nothing but a steady barrage of holiday entertainment. SiriusXM launched all their Christmas music stations already to get the jump. Honestly, they have thousands of stations, I don’t know why they ever need to “launch” them. 7) Ms Scarlet and the Duke (PBS) English Audio Description?: No Wel, she got her ring back, but AT WHAT COST? Still wish this ran with audio description. I very much feel like this is a spectrum … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- November 1st

So, what did i watch on Halloween night? This used to be a dead night for television as it was assumed people had other things to do. now everyone watches TV on demand, so they don’t even bother to run specials or reruns on Halloween anymore. Weird. The times we live in. 7) This Fool (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes Despite a silly title that was justified later in storytelling in a ridiculous manner, this birthday centric episode wasn’t as funny as last week, nor did it really make a ton of sense. This show still has it’s own charm, … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- October 31st

Updated to ios 16, and I’m trying to get used to my new narrator voice. They totally eliminated my original one, so I’m just trying different ones to see what works. Kind of like how two new shows ended up on this list. Just trying out new things. 9) Fakes (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes I don’t know. The pilot was Ok. Nothing really jumped out at me. The show is a half-hour that centers on some teens who learn to make Fake ID’s. It wasn’t bad, but it did nothing to hook me. It’s a half hour, which usually … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- October 30th
