The Too Much TV Roundup- August 2nd

John Stark

Yesterday… I watched Night Sky… and it didn’t try to send me into another episode, and it was no longer in my continue watching. Today, it’s in my continue watching. I’m so confused. Did I finish that the other day? I guess, I’ll find out next week… when I try to finish it again? Anyway, pretty sure I did finish another show, but I’m going to not say which one because my world is upside down. 1) the Marvelous Ms maisel (Amazon) English Audio Description? Yes I do believe, and I don’t want to jinx it, that I’m all caught … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- August 2nd

The Too Much tV Roundup- July 25th

John Stark

Normally, on a Monday, i would be praising Outer Range yet again. I finished that last week, so who made it to the top of this Monday’s chart? 1) Night Sky (Amazon) English Audio Description Available?: Yes Something interesting is finally happening to the secondary storyline, as it becomes more clear that for some reason our Latinx family is here to hunt down Jude. But what really made this show work had nothing to do with the science fiction,and everything to do with the quiet work JK Simmons has been building on all season. Some absolutely heartbreaking work from him … Continue reading The Too Much tV Roundup- July 25th

The too Much TV Roundup- July 20th

John Stark

It’s just one of those weird days where I reflect back on my list, and I didn’t expect this show to end up on top. Random assortments make things always more interesting. 1) We Own This City (HBO/HBO MAX) English Audio Description Available?: Yes This limited series came to a close, and while I ahven’t always been a fan to the point where this show has managed to top the list, or even get a top grade, it did so in its final hour, which wraps up all of its storylines in the most entertaining and meaningful fashion possible. This … Continue reading The too Much TV Roundup- July 20th

The Too Much TV Roundup- July 12th

John Stark

There was this thing again in the middle of the day that won’t appear in my rankings of shows. That would be a weird thing to rank. And obviously, I’m talking about the Emmy nominations, which I definitely watched live. JB Smoove was not the right person for that announcement. 1) Ozark (Netflix) English Audio Description Available?: Yes For those wondering why I’m still watching Ozark into July, even at one episode per week, it’s because binge watching critics ruined the back half of the season by revealing the biggest character death. And this was that episode. i was dreading … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- July 12th

The Too Much TV Roundup- June 30th

John Stark

June is now over. How did I wrap up the month? 1) Breeders (FX/Hulu) English Audio Description Available?: No I my continued journey to get Martin Freeman an Emmy nomination for his work on Breeders, after finally working his way back into the house, he suffers a back injury. This gets him some pain meds that lead to some very interesting behavior and an honest conversation with Luke, but when they wear off, ultimately Paul heads to the doctor… and we are left with a cliffhanger. Freeman’s work on this show is consistently darkly hilarious while also having a ton … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- June 30th

The Too Much TV Roundup- June 22nd

John Stark

Nerd Day! A bunch of things aimed at a very specific group all dropped today. All of this, plus I managed a multiverse of madness. 1) The Umbrella Academy (Netflix) English Audio Description Available?: Yes Maybe it was the dance fight. No, it was definitely the dance fight, dream sequenced or not, that sent this episode to the top of my rankings chart. Really happy to have this show back for another 10 episodes. I was wondering when they were going to address the Vanya/Elliot Page need to transition the character, but not in the first episode would be that … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- June 22nd

The Too Much TV Roundup- June 18th

John Stark

I definitely watched too much TV on a rainy Saturday. 1) Gaslit (Starz) English Audio Description Available?: No I hate to put. Shows that don’t have audio description on top, but there was no denying the penultimate hour of Gaslit, which should serve as a For Your Consideration reel for the series two leads, Julia Roberts and Sean Penn, whose marriage finally comes to a screeching halt as secrets are revealed, and things are said that can’t be unsaid. Robert’s performance in this series is brilliance, but Penn brings a new raging fire to Mitchell, attacking for dominance. He’s scary … Continue reading The Too Much TV Roundup- June 18th
