OMG. We are almost done with a whole month in January. Well, you should be able to predict my number one. it broke the damn internet. But what else did I watch? 6) The Crown (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes now this season is behind me. Please make Season 6 better. For the sake of everyone. Although, the idea that Diana was power voting to get rid of the monarchy made me laugh. Who knows if there is any truth to that, but i found it hilarious that she was voting like a teenager in the early days of American … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/30/23

So, an interesting set of shows, some for the first time. How did the new shows stack up? 6) Saturday Night Live (NBC/Peacock) English Audio Description?: No Michael B Jordan is many things, but naturally hilarious is not one of them. I didn’t realize he was directing Creed 3 though, now I’m excited to see what he’s like as a director. Final Grade: B- 5) Alert! (FOX/Hulu) English Audio Description?: No Well, even though the pilot felt intense, it did nothing really to make me feel like I knew what the long term prospects are for this show. I’ll give … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/29/23

So, i labeled yesterday’s roundup as representing the 28th, when it represented the 27th. so, now I’m back in line with the correct day of the week. We’ve all been there, right? 11) The Mysterious Benedict Society (Disney plus) English Audio Description?: Yes Wow. 11 shows, and I felt the need to put this at the bottom. The sad thing is, I really enjoyed the first season, but watching this season near a close, with the happiness centers starting to have their effect, I realize that the first season was structured better, I was more interested in the plot, and … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/28/23 REDUX

The Dentist thwarted some of my TV time, so my list of accomplishments is quite low. Or, at least lower than I had expected. 6) The English (Amazon) English Audio Description?: Yes This is a show that started off fierce, and had that great back and forth in the pilot between Emily Blunt and Ciaran hines. By the 6th episode, I wanted her to go home. I love how this became a life lesson about Buffalo Bill’s Wild West show, which I would not have guessed from the first episode. But, passing around that damn bird skull was funnier than … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/28/23

I did hear in fact that WBD did check to see how easy it was to take candy from a baby, and it was not easy. Unfortunately, that toddler was already upset and distressed about all the cancellations on his favorite streaming service, and went all John Wick. So, taking candy from a baby is not as easy as WBD assumed. They’re still going to axe your favorite show, they just aren’t playing around with babies anymore. 6) 6) Gossip Girl (HBo MAX) English Audio Description?: Yes I’m glad this show settled once and for all the great debate as … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/26/23

I should stop watching TV. Not because it is rotting my brain, but because I seem to be a bad luck charm for a TV show. Once again, i wake up, watch a show, and then later that evening… that show gets cancelled. Like, what the hell? 5) Echo 3 (Apple Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes It’s not that this show is bad, but it just never fully hits my interest. I keep seeing shows dropping like flies, and Echo 3 is actually one i wouldn’t be upset about. I just wrapped Chapter 2, and there were some great moments. … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/25/23

When I have a bit more time, likely this weekend, I will dive into those Oscar nominations. But for right now, here are the six shows I crammed in yesterday. 6) The Crown (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes in what has become a rather cumbersome season, we spend an entire episode hashing out the divorce details of Diana and Charles. Truthfully, I enjoyed josh O’Connor and Emma Corrine more in these roles, even though I’m a much bigger fan individually of Dominic West and Elizabeth Debecki. Episode Grade: C+ 5) Willow (Disney Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes After the last … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/24/23

One of those almost really cool number days. Tomorrow will be 23/23 so, if you’ve got some babies in that belly, push me on out. Give them a birthday no one can forget. 8) Treason (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes I really felt like I was missing something. Like, the show started in progress or something. I may go back and watch this episode again, because I was far more lost than i should have been for a pilot episode. Final Grade: To Be Determined… 7) Emily In Paris (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes We seem to be in a … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/22/23

8 shows and a movie. That’s what I accomplished, around life stuff. And it looks like no more cancellations for at least one day. 8) The Mysterious Benedict Society (Disney Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes Now the gang is split up, lots of fighting, Kate is mad at her dad, Sticky is mad at Constance, and somehow I can’t keep but thinking there must have been a better second season. Episode Grade: B- 7) George and Tammy (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: No I can’t help but think that I’m missing so much in this quieter than you’d expect drama. … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/21/23

I imagine there was a conversation happening yesterday at the Cock that went a little like this… :Look at this dumb fucker. He’s finishing One of us is Lying, like that’s going to matter.” “He has no idea what’s coming.” “What a loser.” Somewhere, in my effort to support this damn thing, they cancelled it the same day i finished the season. Like God forbid I get a heads up on watching something I’m not sure needed a second season.That’s right. I actually don’t care that it got cancelled, nor do i care that CBS is parting ways with the … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/20/23
