The character Tess is very strongly based on Cayce Pollard from Gibson's Pattern Recognition
Not very strong. She's not allergic to branding. Just very aware of trends and only one scene i remember seeing in the show highlights that skill for Tess.
First season is on Prime so i'll try and go through it to see if i can see more. All the 'angst' in the show is over the top and badly acted which is why i never had the urge to finish.
The premier of Ash vs Evil Dead Season 3 was very strong. The first two seasons were pretty straightforward but it looks like they’re going to be filling out the mythology more this season and the scale of the Deadite invasion seems considerably larger.
For those who enjoyed Timeless, it comes back on March 11th.
Just posted this in the Marvel Media forum - Luke Cage Season 2 starts June 22nd
Ugly Delicious on Netflix is really good so far (3 episodes in). It's a food documentary staring David Chang.

Sweet! I thought this got cancelled!

It did, even though its ratings were doing okay. It just wasn't meeting their ratings expectations and it got the shaft. Then there was fan backlash and they brought it back. Of course the delay and news that it was cancelled will probably doom the show now.

Sony had been in talks with the Spanish producers to bring the show to America and then suddenly Sony and NBC greenlit a pilot project about a secret time travel agency which became Timeless. The lawsuit was settled last summer.
Netflix has three seasons of The Ministry of Time. If you like Timeless then you might want to give it a try. Personally Timeless didn't turn my crank. But I've been digging The Ministry of Time.
Yeah, I caught up yesterday. Great show!

I loved the first trailer, which immediately called Fringe to mind, but I don't have Starz.
To be very clear, this show is really nothing like Fringe at all. It could be a story from the Fringe Universe, but the tone and direction of this show is completely different. This is a very grounded world, or worlds, as it were.
Yeah, tonally, the show feels mostly spy-thriller but set in a science fiction universe which gives them liberty to deviate from traditional spy-thriller tropes.
So many shows taking place in a dystopian Berlin
Been watching The Rap Game. It is a show about kids trying to make it in the rap game. This is season four and I like it as much of the other seasons.
Also been watching Survivor. I'm not completely into this season. Not the worse season but not the best either.
Unreal continues to make me feel bad for watching it. I really wish they change the setting for the the show. I would like to see a Survivor version.
Ash Vs Evil Dead continues to be over the top bloodbath of the wacky. They are splitting the party a lot this season.
Completed Electric Dreams which was overall better than the last season of Black Mirror. The last episode was the best I was a little late at figuring out what the title meant.
Lucifer is just as good as ever. The only problem is I would like more from the supporting cast.
I see that The Terror is good. I was hoping it might be. Can't wait to watch that first episode. Seems right up my alley, and I love the idea of a show about a doomed Northwest Passage voyage. All they had to do was wait until the 2000s for humans to wreck the planet and melt all that ice!
The Terror is excellent or at least the first episode is. The show is a feast for the eyes. You can feel the cold in this show.
Finished the first two premier episodes of Terror. Yeah, those are just great. So many characters to loathe and so many to cheer for. Great stuff.
I'm down for The Terror, too.
Okay, silly time-traveling romp Legend of Tomorrow just did the greatest thing:
All season they have been fighting a demonic essence voiced by John Noble, and someone comes up with the plan to trick the demon's host by imitating its voice. But how? So they, I sh*t not, travel to 1999 New Zealand and get actor John Noble to be their voice print, whilst he is on set for Return of the King!
They also saved Obama from an attack by Gorilla Grodd. This show is a delight.
Legion season 2 ep1
Are the same people that did season 1 doing season 2? Seams like the tone is a bit different like they are trying copy the format of season 1 but they are missing the mark. However, this is just the first episode so things could improve. Right now I'm at a complete lost at what is going on. I'm not sure what the deal is with the ball. I have no idea if anything is happening in the real world. I have no idea where the bad guys are. Season 1 episode 1 wasn't this obtuse.
We finally got around to watching Instinct. We're digging it. It's got an Elementary vibe that is a little more grounded.
And thank god Cummings plays a gay married man, so we can avoid the relationship stuff that pretty much ruined Castle.
True. It is also downplayed as just a normal thing, which we appreciated.
Season 2 episode 1 of Legion, was fantastic! I love this series, so glad it's back.
S.H.I.E.L.D has been really good this year as well.
I've taken to mentally referring to The Terror as "Master & Commander & Predator."
Season 3 of The Expanse started off strong.
New Girl's back.
Wait, New Girl's back?
