Reply to comment by thefilmer in Should I watch Mr. Robot? I keep hearing it’s one of the best shows ever. by 1000Fatkidz
It's crazy how much stuff in the first season directly spells out what's actually going on but you just brush it off on the first watch

Reply to comment by The_DevilAdvocate in Serious question, does anyone think AI could replace voice actors that have either passed away or otherwise left a series? by [deleted]
The thing is, too, as stuff like this gets more commonplace and shittier, we're going to lose the ear to tell the difference.
What I mean is, CGI can be incredible and flawless and indistinguishable, like it was for a while as the art of it was being showcased; or it can be Marvel's crunched out fast food junk, which is now the standard.
When AI voice work becomes commonplace, it'll get reduced to the same lifeless kind of mass production product as that, something that's as cheap and easy and standard to produce as possible, and we'll all get used to hearing voiceovers in that range. And the reality is, no matter how advanced it gets, AI is never going to come up with stuff like Mark Hamill's Joker out of the blue.

Would definitely recommend. The first season can be a bit cringey in a few parts, specifically the first and last episode. It's a great show overall, season 3 is my favorite season of television. It's also one of the best directed shows I've seen

TIL that the Emergency Alert radio frequency logo is the Deathly Hallows symbol.

Lee Norris as Minkus on Boy Meets World. He is such a fantastic actor, was on par with Ben Savage as far as talented kid actors go. He was let go after the first season because they wanted to age up the series a bit (he was the smallest and youngest).

Season 1 was probably the best series I ever saw- season 2 lost me

Damn usually people agree that season 3 is fantastic

It's one of my favorite shows of all time. If you love Severence, there's no way you won't like it.

Was one of my favorite shows when it was on the air, but I don't think it quite stuck the landing with it's final season. Most people complain about the 2nd season not really having a straightforward plot which didn't bother me at all. But regardless of whether it was that or the death of tv it had really bad ratings for the rest of the series and there were two actors that were probably not included in the last season for issues that happened off set that I haven't seen any coverage of even a comment from Sam Esmail or Rami Malek about.

Not sure why fines like this aren't stated as a percent of the value/revenue of the entity that committed the crime to ensure they stay relevant.

Oh if this isn't the truest thing. Moved here less than a year ago, sirens have lost all meaning.

Fair play, thanks for letting me know.

Fines really need to be percentage based on net worth. But obviously we'll never get that in a plutocrat controlled environment.

You are so cool for not liking Rick and Morty. Thanks for letting us know, your opinion is so important!

Maybe they shouldn't run weekly tests then

It's good but it gets a little too up its own ass at some point. You can definitely tell when the awards started pouring in and the writers got a little too ambitious for their own good.

Yes. The numbers one is slow but it gets better, ep. 7 they start playing the game and it's well made.

I believe Jake left/fired after his DUI and hit and run scandal.
However Noah jerked off on the internet and he was allowed to stay so... 🤷🏻♂️

Correct, but it is accurate regarding Watros.
