The Too Much TV Roundup- 06/09/23

John Stark

Well, the cancellation monster arrived at NBC yesterday and got rid of young Roc and Grand Crew. I believe that leaves only American Auto on the bubble. Meanwhile, ABC passed on all remaining pilots except The Good lawyer, which remains on the bubble with The Rookie Feds and Home Economics. They can extend the contracts past June, but they need to make decisions pretty quickly. 12) Clarissa Explains it All (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: no Status: Ended This trip down memory lane hasn’t quite worked out for me. This episode, someone might have a crush on Clarissa. Episode Grade: … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 06/09/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- 06/07/23

John Stark

Well, Showtime just cancelled a show that premiered over a year ago. I think we all saw that coming. Generally, if you hit that year mark, and you haven’t heard anything… it’s not going to be good news. 11) Futurama (Hulu) English Audio Description?: No Status: Revived A weird day. I enjoyed pretty much everything I watched, but in the great struggle, the show without AD lost the war. Fry drinks an alien leader which is bad news for him. And he and Leela have a falling out. But, it all works out in the end for our Marty mcFly … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 06/07/23

Well, HBo cancelled Perry Mason after two seasons.What a shame. Honestly, they were trying to elevate it, but Perry Mason would be a lot better off as just a regular procedural on CBS. 12) Family Matters (MAX) English Audio Description?: Yes Status: Ended That opening urkel joke was a groaner. Then, walking outside to tell your whole family not to drive this car, was like begging them to do so. Obviously, shenanigans were bound to happen. Episode Grade: C+ 11) Dinosaurs (Disney plus) English Audio Description?: No Status: Ended Robbie doesn’t know if he wants to be a carnivore or … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 06/06/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- 06/04/23

John Stark

I’m not sure there’s a ton of TV news, aside from the fact that the DGA signed a new contract, leaving the WGA and SAG as being the two still left. But, I did watch a ton of pilot episodes yesterday. 16) Clone high (MAX) English Audio Description?: No Status: Revived Still trying to get through the original Clone High. I think I finally am hearing Will forte’s voice. This episode dealt with getting a diagnoses of ADD. Maybe this would be funnier with audio description. Episode Grade: B- 15) 8 Simple Rules (Disney Plus) English Audio Description?: No Status: … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 06/04/23

Sometimes I wonder… will we ever get to see the second season of Chad? I know it was cancelled by TBS, but it completed shooting. It was actually cancelled the day it was supposed to have its second season premiere. Did anyone buy the completed second season? Tubi? Roku? Anyone? 14) Clarissa Explains it All (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: No Status: Ended Fergus breaks something in the house, and blames it on ghosts, which leads them to doing a seance for some character we’ve never met before with a ridiculous name. It swings for the fences, but strikes out. … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 06/03/23

John Stark

Well, the word came down the pike that The Winchesters is now officially dead, and no one wanted to save it. Probably a little too soon for a Supernatural reboot. 13) Dinosaurs (Disney Plus) English Audio Description?: No Status: Ended This episode was dumb, as Earl focuses a lot on wanting to watch more TV, and win a big TV, and be on TV. The point of this episode was lost. Episode Grade: C- 12) Family Matters (HBo MAX) English Audio Description?: Yes Status: Ended Man, urkel sounds really young. But, I finally got to the first episode of the … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 06/02/2023

Dungeons And Dragons: honor Among Thieves

John Stark

Where I Watched it: Paramount Plus English Audio Description?: Yes I think we should wait for Jonathan. Well, I hope we can all agree this is better than the last big screen attempt at a Dungeons and Dragons movie. I say this with the knowledge that I’m not a D&D fan, so I’m not sure how those dice rollers feel about this comic take on their game. but, it reminds me of the last cinematic attempt at power Rangers. Way better than anyone thought it would be, yet still somehow never got a sequel. The whole cast is entertaining, but … Continue reading Dungeons And Dragons: honor Among Thieves

John Stark

Lots of interesting TV news. Danny Masterson clearly will not be appearing on That 90’s Show ever. Kim Cattral will be returning to And Just Like That next season. Oh, and it’s technically June 1st, so Happy Pride Month! 12) Fatal Attraction (Paramount Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes Status: Not Yet Renewed I think this just fell on bottom due to several things. First, I’m not a big fan of the monotone narration. Not that there’s the best way to describe when a man enters a woman and starts thrusting, but there’s something just so lifeless about how those scenes … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/31/23

I watched way too much TV yesterday. i know a lot of these are half hours, but even for me. My God. Wow. 16) Saint X (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes Status: Not Yet Renewed You know, this was one of the first things I watched, and I can’t remember anything about it. It’s the second episode, and I remember there’s a mystery around a murdered girl, and the show is on an island. I got very little beyond that. It wasn’t bad enough for me to remember hating it, it’s just mediocre enough for me to not care. Episode … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/29/23

John Stark

Last night, people who were up to date on Succession and Barry said farewell to the hit shows. I spent the time contemplating what the hell I just watched in one of these shows, and how I planned to grade and talk about it. It wasn’t one of the big shows from last night, but i started something that was… interesting. 12) Clone high (MAX) English Audio Description?: no Status: Ended I kinda just wanted to check out the original series a bit before watching the revival. I barely remember the show. The pilot basically centered around Abe Lincoln buying … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/28/23

Yesterday, the first in a trio of finales hit the TV world as Maisel fans said goodbye to their favorite program. Coming up, in less than a week, are the series finales of Succession and Ted Lasso. It’s a sad week. 11) The Adventures of The Gummi Bears (Disney Plus) English Audio Description?: No Status: Ended Despite my love of this show when I was a kid, this third episode did absolutely nothing for me.Part 1 involved a surprisingly friendly dragon, and part 2 involved… well… I don’t know because it was hard to follow without audio description. But one … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/26/23

I did not plan this today. But i watched a new episode of Citadel the same day Amazon greenlit a second season. So that is my big TV news story to rock your world this morning. 12) All In The Family (FreeVee) English audio Description?: No Status: Ended Other than remembering Rob Reiner yelling about his Polish heritage at one point, my sleep last night completely erased what this episode was about. Occasionally that’s a problem with a show when i watch this much stuff in one day. Episode Grade: ? 11) Futurama (Hulu) English Audio Description?: No Status: Revived … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/25/23

Wynonna Judd: Between Hell and Hallelujah

John Stark

Where I Watched it: Paramount Plus English Audio Description??: Yes This could have been an even darker film had Wynonna chosen to spend the duration talking about her mother. However, this is less about the tragic way Naomi Judd left us so suddenly, and more about how Wynonna put herself together, with the help of country music, to go ahead with the promised tour that was supposed to be her and Naomi. I’ve always known who The judds were, but never could claim being a massive fan. But the pacing of this film, and the care it takes in telling … Continue reading Wynonna Judd: Between Hell and Hallelujah

American idol crowned a winner last night. I’m watching it today. I know who won, and thank God. 15) Drops Of God (Apple Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes Status: Unknown This was an odd duck of a series.I’m not even really sure I understand what the show is about. There was a lot of focus on being able to taste really specific flavors immediately, and perhaps becoming a sommelier. But, I think of the new shows I watched, I enjoyed this one the least. It didn’t really establish to me what it wanted to be, and instead tried almost an … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/21/23

Well, that Disney/Hulu pull list I mentioned earlier got a little shorter as the internet clapped back about one title Disney was planning on purging, the documentary Howard, which centers around the composer Howard Ashman who was instrumental in the revival of Disney, starting with The little Mermaid. Not only did it seem in poor taste to remove a documentary about an LGBT icon right before pride month, but also right before the live action adaptation of his work hits the big screen. So, Howard will not be pulled. 13) Great Expectations (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes Status: Limited Series … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/21/23
