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- August 25th

John Stark

These roundups are taking a hit this week. I was actually about halfway through a fourth title, but I couldn’t finish it yesterday. So, these rankings are hard today. 1) Solar Opposites (Hulu) English Audio Description Available?: Yes This episode of Solar Opposites was so on brand, that with only 3 shows in the mix today, I have to give this one the edge. not only did it give me my typical laughs I expect from the show, but it truly encapsulated that wacky tone that feels a bit left of Rick and morty, and enough so for it to … Continue reading The Too Much tV Roundup- August 25th

The Too Much tV Roundup- August 18th

John Stark

Five shows today. one of them is Marvel. Did it hit the top? 1) Solar Opposites (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes Essentially, Solar Opposites has created this secondary universe within its own show that we care about in almost the same way Pinky and the Brain caught on as a spinoff from Anamaniacs. Here, I think spinning them off could be a mistake. Not knowing the ins and outs of all the characters within the wall really makes for this bizarrely entertaining side trip whenever the show decides to take it. Add to that, the Hululand references, which were all … Continue reading The Too Much tV Roundup- August 18th

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 10th

John Stark

Slow news day, but I finished one of my favorite shows of the year, so it’s a bittersweet ranking. 1) Shining Girls (Apple Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes My gift to the world would be this show. What an amazing finale that perfectly wrapped up the insanity of everything set up so far in the series, and also never needing to explain the magic behind the event. This came down to Kirby versus Harper, and the final hour really felt like a stand up and cheer type of hour, as the revelations kept coming, and I fell in love with … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 10th

The Too Much TV Roundup- August 6th

John Stark

One of those super chill days where I cleared a lot off my watchlist. This list doesn’t even include any films watched. 1) The Orville (Hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes Listen, Seth, I know that secretly you want to be done with this show for some reason. unfortunately, and I say this as a huge Family Guy fan from back in the day, this is the best thing you’ve ever done. This third episode, which featured a handful of the crew landing on a planet that showed life where there wasn’t supposed to be any was quite amazing. Sending each … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 6th

The Too Much TV Roundup- July 31st

John Stark

Toward the end of the week, once I’ve watched an episode from all the current shows I’m moving through is when I start to introduce other shows that were on my list to catch up with. I did not make good choices. Some were great, but some may not be around next week. 1) For All Mankind (Apple Plus) English Audio Description?: Yes I know you all don’t know me well enough to know I’ve been a fan since the very beginning, trying to convince people from the start to jump on board. I’m so glad that For All Mankind … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- July 31st
