um…LOL…I don’t actually watch live TV. In fact, I don’t even have cable, satellite, or dish or metal foil attached to an antennae. So most recently I have been rewatching all 12 season of NCIS before the 13th comes out on Netflix. I have the first season of the Last Ship on disk, but I’m somewhat annoyed with it.
What is Last Ship? See I feel like books have no chance now when there are so many shows I haven’t heard of.
NCIS – sheesh. Been on for so long. I know I said it before but there isn’t that much Naval crime.
laughing. But the characters are compelling on NCIS so it lasts.
The Last Ship is about the last us naval ship to be uninfected and their efforts to find a cure for this disease that is sweeping the planet.
Orange Is The New Black for me too. Also on Netflix, Scandal. Will continue with Madame Secretary when more is available.
The Yeti, Alien Jones and I put our differences aside every Thursday night and watch Scandal. It is our Scandal night. Alien Jones brings the seven layer dip.
Ooo speaking of, it’s about to start! I better release the Yeti.
Grey’s Anatomy , Gilmore Girls and Supernatural
I watched OITNB in two days. I’m now catching up on Black Orphan and I discovered Luther, a detective show from the U.K. starring Idris Elba. It’s quite good.
Sir I think you mean Orphan Black. Black Orphan would be an entirely different show. Although a show that needs to be made. The media really turns a blind eye to the plight of black orphans everywhere.
I’m only on episode 5 of OITNB so don’t spoil it for me but thus far, I feel like it is a major plot hole that no one in charge has noticed a missing officer yet.
Don’t tell me though! I’ll keep watching and find out.
Correct you are. A Yoda moment I was having.
RWBY for me. RoosterTeeth scored again with RWBY after the success of Red Vs. Blue.
Sir, I have no idea what these shows are. Apparently you have to be a millennial or something. I googled RWBY and found out that it was anime. Not a huge anime fan.
But to each their own really. What is Rooster Teeth and Red vs Blue?
Yeah, RWBY is anime. In general, I don’t like anime either, but I’m a huge fan of RoosterTeeth’s Red vs. Blue, so, after dragging my heels for several months because it was ANIME (ugh), I decided to give RoosterTeeth the benefit of the doubt. And I’m so glad I did! It’s absolutely fantastic.
RoosterTeeth is a company that releases online web-series for free on their site and on youtube. They pioneered the use of machinima, or the use of video game platforms to tell stories, when the founders created the first season of Red vs. Blue in 2002 using the Halo video game engine as the filming method.
I’m trying to catch up on the last seasons of all the superhero shows on the CW–I have them all on my DVR. I’ve also been binging Korean dramas and 90s anime on Netflix.
Korean dramas? I need details.
Do you like subtitles and love triangles?? They are basically well-done soap opera-type shows. Lots of romantic angst, but also very little actual sex haha.
Check out “Beating Again,” “Secret Garden,” “Boys Over Flowers,” or “Coffee Prince” for some of my favs.
Are these South Korean? I always thought North Korean TV was 24 hours of Kim’s achievements. “Today the Dear Leader beat the LA Lakers single handed and then he cured cancer with his tears. After that, he punched a shark in the face and conquered Mars in the name of North Korea.”
LOL yes South Korean. I would image NK dramas would be mainly as you describe.
