I'm surprised an adaptation of the scandal wasn't announced sooner tbh
Expected for the picks as well as the Jane spinoff rejection. I don't think there would have been enough interest for a Jane novel anthology series.
I know there is one person here who was excited for Nancy Drew. Congrats berzeli
As much as I love Jane the Virgin it's definitely not popular enough to support a spinoff, especially with such a similar name.
is that a zombie thing in the background? Nancy going supernatural?
Guess I'm intrigued as well.
Its been on fire this season? I liked S1 and loved S2, but never got going with the third season.
If it treats women like Supernatural than Nancy Drew will be dead by episode three.
S3 is fine but they ended it on a weirdly inconclusive note even though they knew it was going to be the final season. And yet it still might have a better ending than GOT.
Awww, kind of unfortunate for both shows. I haven't caught up with GoT yet but can't wait to get going again.
different Nancy Drew pilot commissioned by a different network, though you may already know that.
That CBS pilot from a few years ago also had her as a 30-something NYPD detective, which raised the question of why you'd bother slapping the Nancy Drew IP on it in the first place.
I honestly couldn't remember, I just know the property in general has been bouncing around for years, often with a diverse lead.
Never in doubt, but good to have it confirmed. It's a great show.
Billions is good, but I feel like it's going through the motions lately. I always wondered after the stellar first season how they'd keep the story going, and the answer is each season gets weaker than the last.
Bless This Mess is bad, but it's at least a slightly entertaining, helps the boredom kind of bad.
Seems par for the course with Showtime. I'm still looking forward to digging into season 4.
Wrapped-up watching Halt and Catch Fire (omfg that ending). I dislike being at the whims of internet bandwidth for series I like, so try and get everything on BR or DVD, and I notice there's only the first two seasons on physical media. Anyone know if the third and fourth seasons are getting a BR or DVD release?

hey, RatskyWatsky this is how you sell me on the garbage u watch.
(j/k I was so in on it already but TNT are gonna TNT and it's still not on any streaming service here)
I don't know where you live or what services are like there but Hulu has season 1. And I've just very recently discovered that the TNT app has Claws. BUT it cycles between the first and second half of season 2. So you can watch season 2 episodes 1 through 5 on the TNT app and then wait until it cycles to episodes 6 through 10 and then be caught up for season 3 in June. At least I think it is June.
RatskyWatsky and Aiii have been pushing the show so hard that I want to give it a shot. And also because once upon a time I had it on my DVR but deleted the whole thing cause I couldn't be bothered at the time. I'm going to start on season 1 this weekend on Hulu. This better be worth it from all the stuff I have been hearing.
CBS has their upfronts on the 15th, so by then it should be clear.
I don't agree, though this season has been less "must see TV" and more "I like these characters so I'll watch"
It'll never be the same as Chuck vs. Axe.

Nordics, and TNT puts fuck all of their shows on any streaming service. They barely even put them on cable as is, I genuinely have no idea what their business model is.
That is pretty odd. I would think that they would want to be available more on streaming services. Unless this is some effort to get people onto stuff that they own? The barely putting them on cable is absolutely bizarre to me though. Can't imagine why.
Yeah I tried to add I Am the Night to my PS Vue to grab on demand versions, but nothing came up. Not sure how to watch it now.
I saw your non-avatar and for a second I thought you were dead souls but he doesnt enjoy things so it couldnt be him.

Re Billions,
- I get that Chuck and Axe resolved their differences mostly because they both love Wendy, but all of a sudden they're friends and allies doing big favors for each other. Seems a bit much.
- Jock Jeffcoat is a caricature.
- Taylor is great, but as you implied Taylor vs Axe is no Chuck vs Axe.
- Connerty, in the blink of an eye he's gone from Goody Two Shoes to corrupt and after 4 seasons his character is still no more explained or nuanced than, "I'm Chuck's enemy."
- The S&M secret from the very first ep resolved really fast and clean, for Chuck professionally I mean, and didn't feel believable to me.
