Yup I had to borrow my wife’s work laptop it’s a real pain.

Have you upgraded the firmware on the controller? I had basically the same problem and I needed to update the firmware.

A Man on the Inside is much more of a character and story based comedy then Shure’s previous work. It’s a lot less joke dense then The Good Place which was in turn less dense Parks and Rec. I mean I’d expect a comedy about grief, loss, and regaining a purpose to go at a slower pace and I found it lovely and clever, but it definitely not a “Joke Factory”. Your Mileage and all that but I got through the whole series in a day because each episode was sweet and cute, not because I couldn’t stop laughing.

Overcooked has couch co-op Right? I’ve been looking for a new game to play with my son. If it’s still available I’d be really grateful

I really enjoyed this season every step felt earned and the twist felt obvious in hindsight. I didn’t expect it at all but that was because of didn’t expect a production to do that not because it was an ass pull or anything.

I’m just really interested in where the story goes from here. I just don’t think the c-suite guys are going to let them do a story about Eddie Redmayne hunting billionaires after the real world news.

Yeah Z Nation is a romp! I don’t what they were smoking in the writer’s room but it was crazy and fun.

I think I’d like to subscribe to your newsletter. Of the ones I’ve seen I totally agree with you:

Creature Commandos - An excellent show Very James Gunn but in my world that’s a complement. 1x03 really kicks it up a notch. GI robot is one of my new favourite characters “Oh Nazis” made me smile.

Lioness S2 - Total tripe, some of the worst writing (honestly if you told me Donald Trump had done punch up on it I’d believe you) but to be honest I’d watch Zoey and Nicole read the fucking phone book, so I’ll probably check back in if there’s a season 3.

The Diplomat - yeah good that’s about where I’d put it too. Not great but very good.

Arkane - I don’t know? it’s good but god damn it’s bleak. It’s a hard slog to watch so far. But maybe there’s hope in the end?

I only watched once and the only thing that sticks out in my memory is Remy Malik’s performance but he was amazing.

I didn’t like the shade thrown at Moon Knight, but aside from that I agree. It really highlights what a Christmas Movie Hawkeye was and one of the things Marvel does best is when it crosses superhero movies with another genre.

In all fairness to Ransom, maybe he was thinking of the spider cows from S01E01?

One of the coolest things I’ve ever heard about Office Space is that Mike Judge had a alternate ending where when we check in at Peter at the end of the movie and his new construction boss is just another Lumburg. Which really hit home with the fact that it’s not the office jobs that sucks, all jobs suck.

You know most people don’t need two comments to up vote “Office Space”

Yeah his buddies from DOD’s PR and from the NSA. /s Yeah I’d believe that the whole novel really reminded me of a YouTube of some war games.

My second favourite crazy conspiracy theory is that Tom Clancy didn’t really exist and that he was the front man for the CIA’s public relations office. Red Storm especially leads this as the whole novel reads like someone took a high level war game and tried to make a novelisation out of it.

Got to say, Aussie comedies are on a roll lately. The new season of Fisk is hilarious and the eleventh season of Spicks and Specks is still slaying. I frankly need a laugh, so I’ve been watching those. And for some reason I’ve been nostalgic lately so I’ve dug out some of those early aughts fun cable light dramas. Burn Notice, Leverage, Psych, White Collar, Monk, and such. Nothings to heavy, a story gets told in 40 minutes and maybe there’s some kind of season long thing taking up 5-10 minutes in it, but no puzzle boxes or epic character arcs or anything. They’re like the TV version of a wine cooler, no depth, or heaviness but light and fizzy and fun. Maybe I’m just a basic bitch but I like fun.

I came here looking for this and I knew Lemmy would come through for me. Thanks for passing your spark forward.

Laurie Anderson - Strange Angels

The Middleman! It was 1 hour comedy that played on ABC Family that sadly got canceled after its first season. It was a farcical take on the super spy genre based off the comic books of the same name with Matt Kessler and Natalie freaking Morales. Vampire Ventriloquist Dummies, Zombie Flying Fish, and all Alien Boy Bands. It’s a hilarious send up spy and comic book tropes.

So DJT failed to get Mike Johnson to toe the line about forcing a shut down if they didn’t get the voter suppression that he wanted. Sounds like the rest of the party is slipping through his fingers.

Sorry Sentient, this isn’t a thing that’s happened but a thing that should. But you do have a chance to give Prodigy a go and for that I’m jelly. It a fun show that really gets the inspirational and aspirational thing about Star Trek.
