A show where the protagonist never shows their face.
Awesome idea!!!

I wonder if Colbert still has him "On Notice."

Yeah I just want to watch the converted Imperial cloning scientist and the intrigue on Coruscant. The rest of the show is a total snoozefest.

Just to focus on the positive: more Bo Katan, more Katee Sackhoff
I love it, I love her, all hail the Queen of Mandalore or whatever the title is. Can't wait to see her ride a mythosaur with one hand like a cowboy on a bucking bronco

Reply to comment by sammybunsy in Is the writing on Succession actually as good as everyone says it is? by sammybunsy
I’m convinced that anybody who thinks Succession has next-level writing hasn’t actually watched or paid attention to a drama that’s actually good and well-written lmao. People who think that it’s next-level to dabble in the concept of money and its moral ambiguities must be incredibly boring, that’s some real surface level shit

Sorry Grogu will be a babbling baby for another 150 years. Lol. And I agree keeping him in the show just for cute shots is tedious and gross.

All of these shows are really average at best and I think the praise people give them is some kind of attempt at accrediting this new era of television when really none of it even comes close to some of the best dramas of the 2000s. It’s so sad to watch people praise these shows when we’ve had so much better

Technically only one for Top Gear. The second crash was in the Rimac when he was making The Grand Tour.

I loved Get Shorty. The new show has been a treat as well

I'm enjoying it, and the fun the writers are having expanding the mythology. It's not as good as the OG show, but it's solid and getting better. But. I watched the OG show as an adult, not as a kid, so my feelings about the OG show were that I was a fan, I greatly enjoyed it, and Scott Bakula was a sweetie but it wasn't some kind of tv masterpiece for the ages. If you watched it as a kid, you could have a very different feel for the property. It's probably also why I like the Magnum PI reboot more than the average on this sub. :D
I think the new show is doing a good job of being respectful (instead of just taking the title and then graffiting all over it with whatever the hell they want), paying homage and maintaining original story, and not straying too far from the tone of the original, while still carving their own path with an interesting set of characters.
But I still think Fantasy Island's doing a better job on their reboot :D. [I'm a sucker for any former Mutant Enemy writer, and they've got two as showrunners (Elizabeth Craft and Sarah Fain), and another three (Jane Espenson, Ben Edlund, and Drew Z. Greenberg) in the writers' room.]

Yes, they released a 2 season long free audiobook called "Orphan Black: The Next Chapter", it's set 8 years after the original series.
Tatiana Maslany voices everyone in season 1, and a few other actors like Jordan Gavaris (Felix), Kristian Bruun (Donnie) and Evelyne Brochu (Delphine) also return to voice their characters for season 2.
This upcoming TV show is set ~40 years after the original series for comparison. All rumors and signs point to Keeley Hawes' character being >!grown up Kira Manning (Sarah's daughter)!<, so there'll definitely be some connection to the original.

I wonder why they set it so far in the future. Ritter was great in Jessica Jones, but the writers really let he down in seasons 2 and 3.
