Unsleeping City is so good. I think my favorite full campaign I've finished so far is Crown of Candy. The first season of Dungeons and Drag Queens is fun if you like seeing new players learn the game mechanics and those queens play their characters really well.

I started watching Monarch S1, since I've been seeing comments here. I'm about 4 episodes in and I'm confused as fuck. I assume it dials in as we go along, but this show is all over the fucking place.

It's so dumb, so so dumb.

Watch King Kong Vs Godzilla (1962) instead. It's so much more entertaining.

I saw Monarch leaves Prime today. Didn't have enough time to finish it, so it made my decision easy.
Show lost me with mid season funk.

Isn't it only available on prime with an apple TV sub?

That's what I see at least.

Nah S1 was available with just Prime for a month or two.
At like 5AM this morning it said there was only 18 hours left.... so it gone in a few.

There is nothing worse than an impressionable American who watches too much UK media.

The worst thing in the whole world is an american using non-American slang like "Your bloody arse mate!" fuck

i guess the Apple TV logo on it threw me off, perhaps that's a contractual thing or something, but yeah it specifically says "included with prime"

i was in a bad mood when i watched the first episode
and they did that stupid fuckin trope where someone with PTSD
literally just like goes into a trance and relives their trauma
and then comes out of it screaming and saying "mista, mista, GET ME OUTTA HE-AH"
and i said no thanks man and turned it off.

I watch PlutoTv or Tubi or whatever as background noise while I work. I see now Pluto has Fringe to binge. Man I loved that show and had such a crush on Ana Torv. There was a girl in the town next to mine that looked like here and I just never had the guts to talk to her.

I liked Fringe. I'm not sure how far I made it through the series.

From: sanka #666

I made it until the big reveal and then I stopped for some reason. Might binge it now.

Guy who played my grandpa in Band of Brothers is in Fringe, I think. And was in Oz.

Never saw either.

Your grandpa is Staff Sergeant Joseph Toye?

Toye fought in Normandy, Market Garden, and Bastogne, earning four Purple Hearts before losing his leg in 1945.

Oz was HBO's first sort of premiere television before Sopranos. It was pretty good for a few seasons but lost its shit in the last couple seasons. Lots of famous (now) people in it.

Alcoholic, though. Hard to blame him.

Wasn't Deadwood before Oz? Cause that was the best thing HBO ever done did, and canceled it like a bumhole.

Ely and I are once again doing the thing where we're watching a show and she falls asleep during the episode so I keep watching and then we have to watch it again and by the time she actually finishes it I'm reciting lines in my head.

Anyway I really love The Pitt but fan commentary around it is absolutely dismal.

With the dolly and transitions and everything, it's like, no matter where you are on set, you're on, which seems exhausting.
Read that Wyle mandates a no-phones set, so there are quiet rooms with books where actors can take a break.
