Six shows, two movies. That was my day yesterday. How did those shows stack up? 6) Tell Me Lies (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes Thank God. It’s over. Episode Grade: C, Series Grade: C+ 5) The Mosquito Coast (Apple Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes After the harrowing experience of the second episode, our little family of fugitives make it to their destination. And like most mysterious organizations, with underground locations, this one has one of those nicknames that just strikes fear. La Casa Roja. Fuck Me. When i heard that, I upgraded my alarm system and hired personal security. You … Continue reading The Too Much TV ROundup- 01/03/23

Well, it happened again. Netflix cancelled a show while I was watching it. Almost literally. A few hours later, I saw the breaking news that the show I just decided to continue had been cancelled. So, here are the 7 shows fighting for the top spot, and one of them is likely making their final appearance on this list. 7) 1899 (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes I think there might be a show here, but it’s slow getting started. I know they were slowly unraveling, as the captain was seeing his dead family, and the green beetles are obviously part … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 01/02/23

How did i close out the New year? With some movies, shows, and fun. 7 Shows, 4 movies. Truly, a new years spectacle. 7) Welcome To Chippendale’s (Hulu) English Audio Description? Yes It’s not that this show was bad, it just of all the shows, seemed to grab my attention the least. I can appreciate Kumail Nanjiani going dramatic here, but I think more levity in this show could do it some good. Hopefully, we swing a bit more in the middle for future episodes. To be fair, a lot of these recent limited series based on real life stories … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 31st

Yesterday, as we get closer to rounding out the new year, I managed 6 shows, Chelsea Handler’s new Netflix comedy special, and two films. I didn’t rank Chelsea Handler’s stand up, as i think that is really truly subjective, and different people have different favorite stand up comics. 6) Mammals (Amazon) English Audio Description?: Yes I wish i could tell you what I just watched, what the show was about, what it’s long term goals were, what genre it was shooting for, or something. I felt like I was at a total loss. Sometimes, the show seems to just be … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 30th

2022 is almost at a close. And I’m still catching up on stray shows from the past year. Go figure. And a bunch of shows that were on holiday break return next week. Oy vey! 7) Let The Right one In (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: No Despite Paramount Plus’s resilience in keeping Showtime programming as inaccessible as possible, I did give in to let The Right One in for a second episode. After all, I did give American Gigolo and interview With A Vampire both two episodes. The thing is, all three of these shows I would *love* to … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 29th

I kinda sorta watched nine shows today, and three films. But one show made me go… nope. 9) Unsolved Mysteries (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes I quit this series the moment we discovered a sleeping bag full of chopped up body parts. nope. I’m out. Episode Grade: i quit. 8) Limitless With Chris Hemsworth (Disney plus) English Audio Description?: Yes I mean, nothing like a totally jacked guy worried about his health. You know why Super Size Me worked so well? Because the guy looked like an average guy. Hearing Chris talk about optimizing his body is just a bit … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 28th

Seven shows enter the thunderdome today, one will win. Two films were watched, one of them was three hours long. So, that kind of sucked my day up. 7) Tell Me Lies (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes The truth is starting to get out, and it could have consequences…. Oh wait. She’s just getting dumped. Well, maybe not actual consequences, but the kind of consequences I’ve come to expect from a show that thinks taking a condom off is edgy nowadays. You can’t just have college kids having sex all the damn time, while there’s an interesting plot that could … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 27th

Today, eight titles enter the fray, plus I reviewed three films. 8) Unsolved Mysteries (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes You know what I need from these “real life UFO sighting” stories? I need them to come from other areas of the world. I’m done with hearing about all these Americans who keep thinking they’re about to be beamed up. It makes no sense that they would keep landing here. It’s a very American thing to assume we are the most important country, as if aliens understand our borders. We are not the most populous country, nor do we have the … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 26th

I really didn’t put TV as a focus today. I wonder why. I did watch a couple movies, including a theatrical release. I still have four shows here to give you my thoughts on. 4) The calling (Peacock) English Audio description?: Yes I really am just trying to catch up on shows. I had this on my list, wasn’t sure what it was about, and to be honest I didn’t bother finishing the episode. I don’t know what the point of this show is, honestly. it seems to want me to take the show seriously, as the tone suggest the … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 25th

Yes, i spent my Christmas Eve watching TV and movies, as usual. 6) Let The Right one In (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: No This is part of Paramount Plus’s campaign to make sure that all Showtime content on their service remain inaccessible to the blind and visually impaired community, simply because you chose to merge your subscriptions. If you want audio description, subscribe directly to Showtime, since Paramount Plus (which has the same corporate entity and owner) cannot be bothered. I was really only somewhat looking forward to this anyway, if I’m behind honest. I was mainly interested in … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 24th

6 shows and two movies. it’s like an overachieving Community fan goal. 6) Rami (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes First, it was nice to see Rami in his own show. My favorite scene was when they were with the guy who had four wives, and you think it’s going to be this completely different thing, but we meet this strong woman who is this guy’s first wife, and her limited screentime was awesome. Talk about not holding back on giving out advice. Oddly enough, probably either my favorite or second favorite of the season, and it still landed in last … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 23rd

This one is getting a bit closer. no total duds. 6) The Mysterious Benedict Society (Disney plus) English Audio Description?: Yes Hilarious that Rainey can just speak another language like that, Tony Hale is obviously living his best life, and I think Ryan hurst’s character was stronger when he wasn’t talking. Not that Ryan isn’t a great actor, but it’s weird that he talks now. Episode Grade: B 5) Unsolved Mysteries (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes Now, this one really highlights why certain departments out there should be defunded. Like, in this case, it’s not even the polices response or … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 22nd

I always like to point out how many films I watched in addition, and today I knocked out 3 movies along with these episodes. 7) The Devil’s Hour (Amazon) English Audio Description?: Yes I just don’t feel like this show entirely knows what it wants to be. Like, some of it is unintentionally funny. To me, there’s something very odd about a dude sitting around listening to One Fine Day while vaping. Then i think about how the show is supposed to be about these unexplainable things happening to this boy, but it veers off from that often, not just … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 21st

Seven shows, two movies. a solid day. I’m using this Christmas break productively, obviously. 7) Tell Me Lies (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes It looks like lucy has had just enough oh of being a booty call, just like I’ve had enough of this series taking forever to get back to the initial mystery of the pilot. I’ve spent far too long watching college kids fucking at this point, in a pointless show. When i hear audio description about a guy, who is already in a standing position, removing his condom… I wonder… how was that shot? Did we see … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 20th

no major news to talk about yesterday. It was just like, nothing happened on TV. So weird. Very quiet, no news sort of day. Oh… there was that one thing…. Anyway, here’s the list of my indictments, I mean, the shows I watched yesterday. 7) Wedding Season (Hulu) English Audio Description?: No I keep randomly checking in on this show, because it’s so representative of the zero fucks hulu gives about audio description. this show debuted in September. It is actually billed as a hulu original. not FX on hulu. Just a straight up hulu original, for which they are … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- December 19th
