blessingx Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 Anyone else watching this Beau Willimon/David Fincher/Kevin Spacey/Netflix project? They released all 13 episodes up front. Anyway the pilot's goofy ending scene dialog had me scared, but it's picking up. Quote
grawk Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 i will watch it, but haven't started yet Quote
Voltron Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 On the second episode and hoping I can get used to lady macbeth's weird neck. Quote
blessingx Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Posted February 5, 2013 Eliminates need for a necklace. Quote
cutestory Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 Just finished the second episode; had to slap myself so as not to watch a third. Enjoying it so far... Quote
Voltron Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 I got in the first two last night even though I was beat so that I could catch up with Claire. Also enjoying so far, and liked the second ep better. Quote
tyrion Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 Watched the first half episode at the airport, will continue this week. Â I enjoyed the little I saw so far. Quote
raffy Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 As someone who typically doesn't give a fuck about politics I enjoyed the first episode and the only reason I didn't finish the second was because I fell asleep.  EDIT: I like learning about the nature politics and just hate (never watch) watching the news and listening to people's opinions. Quote
tyrion Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 raffy, watch The Newsroom on HBO. Â The first season finished. Â Besides being great, Olivia Munn is in it. Quote
raffy Posted February 5, 2013 Report Posted February 5, 2013 Yes, I have watched that show. It was great, I loved it and I wish it comes back for another season (I think I read somewhere it got picked up for a 2nd season). Honestly, I never found Olivia Munn all that until this show. She's way hotter when she's acting vs. in Maxim or FHM. Quote
tyrion Posted February 6, 2013 Report Posted February 6, 2013 She was hot on Attack of the Show. Quote
Grahame Posted February 6, 2013 Report Posted February 6, 2013 Have to point out that the Netflix Version is an Adaptation of a BBC Series. (a friend has the DVD's if you are interested) Quote
Nanoha Posted February 7, 2013 Report Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) http://www.theatlanticwire.com/technology/2013/02/economics-netflixs-100-million-new-show/61692/ Saw this Atlantic Wire article earlier, which briefly goes over some of the numbers behind Netflix creating their own show. Â ~$100 million for 26 episodes (2 seasons)Â but potentially worth the cost. Edited February 7, 2013 by Nanoha 1 Quote
TMoney Posted December 1, 2013 Report Posted December 1, 2013 Just finished this. Started great and got a bit uneven but overall I liked it. No fault of the cast though, they are wonderful. Â Similar to the Arrested Development 4th season this has pleasantly exceeded my expectations. Definitely in for season 2. Quote
crappyjones123 Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 Anyone else underwhelmed by season 2 compared to season 1? Quote
TMoney Posted February 17, 2014 Report Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) On the contrary, I think I enjoyed season 2 a bit more than season 1. They may have gotten a little too cute with the plot for their own good, but I generally liked it better than season 1. Edited February 17, 2014 by TMoney Quote
blessingx Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Posted February 19, 2014 S02E01. I'm probably done. Too soapy. Quote
blessingx Posted February 19, 2014 Author Report Posted February 19, 2014 Thanks for the suggestion. The Netflix transfer seemed really poor when I last tried, but will give it another shot. Quote
Voltron Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 The original bbc series is great, but as usual they just did twelve episodes and ended it at the end of the story. No drawn out, excessive and extraneous seasons. Stupid bbc. 1 Quote
luvdunhill Posted February 20, 2014 Report Posted February 20, 2014 I for one like season 2 better. Also for some reason the show makes me wish Rubicon had gotten renewed. Quote
jpelg Posted February 22, 2014 Report Posted February 22, 2014 Just started Season 1 last night. Great show, we're hooked. Quote
