The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/05/23

John Stark

Definitely some big TV news yesterday. Kevin Costner’s perpetual temper tantrum has turned into this being the final season of Yellowstone. However, they are planning on doing a sequel spinoff series starring Matthew McConaughey and many of the current Yellowstone cast. Also cancelled is CBS’s 6 season success story SWAT, which was cancelled over money squabbling between CBS and Sony. Despite the fact that SWAT has actually grown its audience the past couple seasons, it’s too expensive, and a deal could not be reached. Finally, FOX is no longer speaking with Mayim Bialik, as they have stopped Call Me kat … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 05/05/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- 04/29/23

John Stark

You know what today is. It’s the day we are all supposed to post that Justin Timberlake/*NSYNC meme “It’s Gonna Be May”. Don’t worry. I’m here to remind you of useless knowledge to keep your socials on fleek. Also, no one says “on fleek” anymore. 11) history of The World Part 2 (hulu) English Audio Description?: Yes I really feel like someone who is not Mel Brooks wrote the script, had Mel brooks look at it, and possibly punch it up a bit, and then he gave it his blessing. There are so many jokes here that fall flat and … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 04/29/23

Lots of TV shows to discuss today. ABC has announced its plans to revive its TGIF lineup, with a mix of revivals and new series. First up, Melissa Joan hart is tapped to return as Sabrina, the 40-Something Witch, no other cast has been announced, though Caroline Rhea is expected to return since she hasn’t found anything to do since Match Game stopped making new episodes. The other show to anchor the lineup is Family Matters, taking a look at how Urkel and laura ended up with a family, and a set of kids that are mostly very different from … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 04/01/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- 03/24/23

John Stark

Just to clarify. Yesterday, I mentioned Alert, and how I bailed due to lack of audio description. I watch “too much TV”, thus the name of the roundup, meaning I rarely get to a show when it drops, unless it’s a big show i make time for like The Mandalorian or Ted Lasso. So, by the time I watched Alert, it wasn’t live, it was from hulu, which does not offer audio description for the title. however, I found out that live airings of that program had audio description. So, there you go. And in today’s news, Grey’s Anatomy was … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- 03/24/23

The Too Much TV Roundup- June 1st

John Stark

After having a day where I watched so many amazing shows, I followed it up with a day with so many really close to amazing shows. Not quite the same thing, but not every episode is created equal. 1) Woke (Hulu) English Audio Description: Yes Yeah, I didn’t expect Woke would ever be topping my daily watchlist either. But, after watching an episode where Keef, still reeling from being attacked for his lineage, hires a new publicist who has big dreams, including having Keef use his own organization to give himself an award for black excellence. So, Keef is giving … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- June 1st

The Too Much TV Roundup- May 26th

John Stark

Somehow, in and around the movies, I’m still managing to knock out series. It’s a tough job, but someone’s gotta do it. Lol. 1) Better Call Saul (Netflix/AMC) English Audio Description available?: Yes in the 7th episode of Season 5, jimmy and Kim worked toward a closure on their Green Table (aka Mesa Verde) plot, which led to not only a whopper of a gimmick from Saul Goodman, but in the episode’s B-Plot, mike worked to remove Lallo from the equation without personally linking himself to the events. So many actors deserve Emmy’s from this series. Episode Grade: A 2) … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- May 26th

The Too Much TV Roundup- May 20th

John Stark

Yet another great day in television. I haven’t even started to watch Heartstopper, and it has already been picked up for seasons 2 and 3. It didn’t even need my help to survive. Of course, there are dozens of shows I’ve never watched, that keep getting renewed. You can’t watch everything. 1) The Last Days Of Ptolemy Gray (Apple Plus) English Audio Description Available?: Yes third episode in, and I keep getting more invested, and more hooked in this terrific Apple limited that features an amazing performance by Samuel l jackson. If you didn’t get a chance to check it … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- May 20th

The Too Much TV- Monday May 9th

John Stark

Because it’s becoming a bit insane to try and track all of the television I watch, and come up with a list of 10 shows, here’s everything I watched yesterday, ranked in order of best to worst, or favorite to least favorite. You now get the whole picture. 1) Severance (Apple Plus) English Audio Description Available?: Yes So, I had mentioned the last time I listed this show, I was one episode from the finale. Now it’s done, it’s behind me, and my mind in blown. I can’t wait for Season 2. This show is highly addictive, and gets better … Continue reading The Too Much TV- Monday May 9th

Once again, I’m running down the list of the 10 shows I most want to talk about from the past week. Not all may have audio description available, but it will be noted. Not all of these are recommendations, and i don’t binge watch, so I might be in a different place than you in a streaming series. 1) The Shining Veil (STARZ) English Audio Description?: No Definitely a show I would love to have audio description for, because I thought the pilot was clever as hell. It’s obviously not made to be taken too seriously, but there’s a hint … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup

You know the drill. There are a ton of streaming services, not to mention actual cable still exists, and it’s hard for one person to cover all my feelings about every single series I’m watching in their own individual post. So here’s a glance at what I watch (slowly, while not binge watching) when I’m not watching movies. Netflix: One of these days I’d like to write about All Of us Are Dead. I’ve heard good things, but I heard good things about Squid Game too back in the day, and tried to start watching that without audio description and … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup
