A good, solid run for the show! But early 2019 seems so far :(
Good. Hopefully it goes out on a high. Season 2 is still the best one but season 4 was really good.
I have as well. I could probably watch is year round or at least alternating with MasterChef. Or at least the real MasterChef. I don't care for the junior edition as much.
That just reminded me, the second season of Daredevil's been over two years ago now. And they were still filming season three last month. That's wild.
But this is good for Jessica Jones fans!
Where have you been, FOX has been running ads for a while on tv lol.
?
I've seen a couple reviews out from THR and EW. The consensus from those two is, it's middling. Good production values but the story lets down the visuals.
Damn. Over a year wait till the premiere. Still, a summer release may benefit it since they don't have to aim to high ratings wise.
Still a miracle it got a second season. Secret best comedy last year.
Definitely the sleeper hit of last season, hope it gets many more seasons.
I mean't since the last episode which was April 18th of last year.
I wonder why they haven't announced the fate of Divorce yet? It got quite a bit more viewers than Crashing and seemed to have a bit more buzz as well.
(also, crossing my fingers for a Here and Now renewal - it's not great, but it's grown on me and I want to see what they can do in a second season after factoring in viewer/critical feedback)
I love the show, but I think that's the right move. 5 is a substantial number of seasons for a show like this - one that allows enough space for them to do their thing without getting stale.
There are 17 reviews on Metacritic - 9 mixed, 7 positive, 1 negative.
Nice, a date! And a subtitle too.
What's tv? (I only Hulu...)
Here and Now has actually grown on me a bit too. I'd watch a second season of it.
I have to admit I was glad to see Lost in Space get weak enough reviews that I don't feel bad skipping it. The last thing I need is to add another streaming show to my backlog.
I thought it was just me!
I think I'll still watch it, but it's definitely not a priority for me.
PHOEBE WALLER-GOD
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS
I find it odd that Amazon gets shows starring Sharon Horgan and Phoebe Waller-Bridge and their produced shows end up elsewhere.
Same. It doesn't seem as though they're as keen on building relationships with creatives as some other networks.

All Hail PWB.
Neither Fleabag nor Catastrophe are Amazon made shows, both stem from UK public service (BBC and Channel 4 respectively). Amazon just bought the rights for those particular shows and are too dumb to snatch up the creative team.

Amazon is a mess right now with the number of management changes that have been made. It seems like the big, splashy deals are being completed, but a lot of their less prominent content management is falling through the cracks. We'll see how things evolve over the next year as they try and right the ship.
(what if Amazon got Phoebe Waller-Bridge to showrun the Lord of the Rings prequel series. And it was about the Ents.)

RatskyWatsky dead souls definitely interested to hear some details about Here and Now since you both (IIRC) and critics were pretty down on it first. I was hoping for it to be worthwhile but the initial reaction definitely put me off of it some.

On a separate note, any FNL fans in here? Rise had gotten very good very quickly so I wanted to point anyone interested in that kind of show in it's direction. It's from Jason Katims who made FNL and Parenthood. It became compelling much faster than the latter show did. As much as I enjoyed Parenthood a lot it took a while to become a favorite for me and the plotting and characterization could be pretty inconsistent at times. Rise hasn't suffered from either of those pitfalls so far, on the contrary it's been great.

I figured Dharma and Greg would be the next one! I'm totally okay with this news!
I think between Louis CK and this show, I honestly have no idea how I feel about the pure boycott stance now. Particularly with Roseanne, since literally no one has bothered making a show like it in the last 10 years even though the audience is clearly there.
I'm telling you, we're like one day away from a revival of Boston Common at this point.
I thought this was already a thing but I guess I was thinking of that really awful and short lived show by just Paul Reiser and around the time that was made the show "Mad About You" must have also been mentioned.
EDIT: Lol. The show I was thinking of "The Paul Reiser Show" literally lasted a single week and aired two episodes before its cancellation.
Does anyone know anything much about the show "Nobodies"? I was just thinking about TV Land shows I've watched and just occurred to me that I don't know why it moved to Paramount. Is it cause Paramount and TV Land are connected? I know another show I was watching, Lopez, was cancelled. Did the same thing happen to Nobodies but it got picked up by Paramount?
OP

It's not Cali as in short for California, it's Cali as in the first beat when Rachel sings "West Covina. Cali-fornia" from the opening song from CXG. So "cancelled" is replacing "fornia"
Look, I just tried getting in two references in one bad joke title. Lessons have been learned.
But why tho? I mean, I remember liking Mad About You but... it's such an odd choice.
I decided to give The Good Doctor a go and ended up watching the entire season. It's actually not terrible. Also, Will Yun Lee plays a former cop turned doctor on the show, so I've made it my head canon that Wei Shen decided to say fuck the triads and the cops and became a doctor.
Paramount Network and TV Land are both owned by Viacom. Viacom was restructuring their channels last year and decided to shift a bunch of TV Land's programming over to the new Paramount Network - including Nobodies, a retooled Heathers, and American Woman. This was done primarily to strengthen Paramount Network's (which is Viacom's main focus on the TV side) appeal to women (Paramount Network was formerly Spike TV, a channel aimed solely at men). Viacom's goal is to give Paramount Network a more 50/50 male/female split ala AMC and FX, you see.
