The Too Much TV Roundup- September 8th

John Stark

Just wait till we get to the bottom of this list. you just wait. 1) She Hulk (Disney Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes I do not care where she puts the Y in her name, but Polly Guggenheim is welcome back on this show, or any show, or any MCU movie ever in my opinion. If it were me, I’d be signing her to a massive contract right now, so she can just appear as needed, whenever we need a good laugh. Hilarious work, and in an episode where Marvel was obviously screwing with us with Donny Blaze, by making … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- September 8th

The Too Much TV Roundup- September 6th

John Stark

I managed some television today, so the rankings won’t be so boring for the 3 of you I’m sure read this post. It’s all for you. One love. 1) The Terminal List (Amazon) English Audio Description?: Yes Well, spoilers I guess. But in Episode 5, which is not the finale, Reese managed to go after the guy responsible for his brain tumor. And he did it. In the 5th episode. That kind of felt like the big boss at the end, but a well timed car bomb, and a little sidewalk shootout took care of his guards and out King … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- September 6th

The Too Much TV Roundup- September 4th

John Stark

I watched a lot of TV yesterday, and now you have to. That’s the deal. Right? 1) Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes This animated offering, which is much better than you would think, has put out its final season on Netflix. There were a lot of shows yesterday, but nothing made me happier than starting Season 5, and beginning the sad journey to saying farewell to the six kids who made a series that was far more interesting than either of the Jurassic World sequels. And I can say this, because I also watched Dominion today, … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- September 4th

Samaritan

John Stark

Where i Watched it: Amazon Description Provided By: Deluxe Narrated By: William michael Redmond in the grand tradition of superhero movies, Sylvester Stallone is finally taking his stab at this genre. His long awaited attempt at a… oh, you mean he’s already done a comic book film before? Oh, he’s done multiple? Well then. I guess he’s addicted to being a hero. Samaritan feels very 90’s, in the way that we used to have these films where a major star would team up with a kid, but ultimately the forward motion of the film was provided mostly by the kid, … Continue reading Samaritan

The Too Much TV Roundup- September 2nd

John Stark

Well, yes, this is a roundup, but pretty much also serves as my official thoughts on the new Lord of The Rings series. 1) Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of power (Amazon) English Audio Description Available?: Yes So, it has arrived. And it was worth the arrival. JA Bayona, whose directorial career is a mixed bag of sorts, manages to direct a rather well done pilot for a series set in Middle earth. It has an expansive feel to it, much the same way a Game of Thrones series does, or even something like The Wheel Of Time, where … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- September 2nd

The Too Much TV Roundup- September 1st

John Stark

I finally had a slower day, and knocked out some shows. So this list is competitive as hell. I know the showrunners of these programs are eagerly awaiting… the results…. No? 1) She hulk (Disney Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes Jennifer Walters is hitting her stride in the third episode which blended a lot of cameos and Marvel ideas with some regular comedy, as her colleague was forced to defend the douchebag from the first episode who claims he lavished Megan The Stallion with 175K in gifts, only to find out it wasn’t really her… it was a shapeshifting Asgardian. … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- September 1st

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 31st

John Stark

Only three shows today. However, despite the fact I’ve talked previously to a handful of people “in the know”, none of them knew what I knew that came true yesterday. Showtime is now fully integrated as an add on to Paramount Plus, meaning you don’t need two different apps. This bodes well for audio description, which I will be complaining about post haste, as Yellowjackets at least (which is known to have existing description recorded) had none. 1) The Orville (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes I had no idea where we were going with this episode. Honestly, I didn’t know … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 31st

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 30th

John Stark

Still a work week, so only five shows battle it out. Let me tell you, be ready for a surprise. 1) The Lake (Amazon) English Audio Description?: Yes In a shocking turn of events, a show that has never topped the list broke through in like the 7th episode of the series. What we had here was the return of birth mother (who hilariously was just called that in the audio description until someone said her name), which allowed for a lot of context to how Billie came to be in the first place, how a kick ass chill girl … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 30th

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 29th

John Stark

Welcome to a shorter list yet again. Can you tell that my work is a bit busier? That’s what these shorter lists lead to. 1) House Of The Dragon (HBO/HBOMAX) English Audio Description Available?: Yes Despite a strong showing this day from… well… nothing else, Hosue of The Dragon slayed again. This is a show that is structured and written well enough to restore faith, much like Better Call Saul that Prequels are sometimes the way to go, instead of a spinoff or a sequel. I know we all wanted an Arya Stark series, but this show is still creating … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 29th

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 28th

John Stark

Today, picking number one meant I could easily have chosen any one of three shows. Each one deserved it for different reasons. Only one gets my top spot. 1) The Sandman (Netflix) English Audio Description?: Yes while last episode I found the questionable existence of Johanna Constantine perplexing, i did have a good laugh when Lucifer Morningstar was uttered. And to know that once again mazekin is at his side… or wait! Lucifer is a woman? Anyway, as a fan of that show, and being fully aware that Lucifer came after Sandman, I just found it unintentionally hilarious. But what … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 28th

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 27th

John Stark

Today, you might say, was a bit of a catch up day. Forgive the ensuing madness. 1) Baymax (Disney Plus) English Audio Description/: Yes i bet you didn’t see this one coming. At the top of my list is the short form series for a very good reason. the third episode of the season is one of the best episodes of any TV show this year, taking a thoughtful, honest, and rather realistic look at a young girl’s first period, which she has the misfortune of having at school, where the stalls are out of pads. But Baymax is here … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 27th

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 26th

John Stark

Welcome. I finally rolled out enough shows to make this list a bit more interesting. So, six shows enter, only one can win. Two were season finales, with one potentially suspected as a series finale. We shall see. 1) The Orville (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes in Twice in A Lifetime we saw a device that allowed time travel, which instantly let us all know… this will be a thing. it ended up sending Gordon 400 years back in the past, and gave us a frustrating but very interesting concept of time travel, and whether or not things are how … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 26th

i squeezed some shit in today just for you. Yes, you. You are special. 1) House Of The Dragon (HBo/HBO MAX) English Audio Description?: Yes I could do with a dial back on the campaign for this show, as I thought the pilot spoke for itself. It featured a great way to introduce us to characters we don’t know, in a world we are familiar with, make us care about them, show us who the major players are, and give us that Game of Thrones dread where anyone can die at anytime. Perfectly executed with lots of heart and tons … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 22nd

Two Days In The Valley

John Stark

This Film Was Available In July on Amazon when I watched it, but I do not believe it is there anymore. I’m quite late on this review. Yes, there is a recorded audio description track for this, if it ever comes back around. Truthfully, I’m a few weeks out from having reviewed this. Sometimes, I review older titles and sit on the video review of them so when i don’t have a newer film to review, i can push out something I saw a few weeks ago. Now, I’m realizing that with this film, once again… I’m having difficulty describing … Continue reading Two Days In The Valley

Lucy and Desi

John Stark

Where I Watched it: Amazon English Audio Description?: Yes Admittedly I’m a bit behind on this documentary, which was better timed closer to the release of Being the Ricardos, back in January on Amazon. It’s a love letter from director Amy Poehler toward someone who obviously influenced a lot of her career, even though they never had the opportunity to meet or work together. It does feature quite a bit of interviews with Lucy and Desi’s kids, and functions as a nice overview for everyone to watch that shows those younger kids who may not know why these two were … Continue reading Lucy and Desi
