It felt slightly off, but reminded me of the original after watching the second episode. They fit in some good heartfelt moments with Dr. Cox too in the first episode We’ll have to see if they can maintain it
I enjoyed the 1st couple of episodes that are out. I think they’ve done a real good job. Unlike a lot of other her revivals it still feels like the original run to me and not like everyone is trying to remember who their characters are.
I’m not generally into watching other people play video games and TTRRPGs (though as sportsball fan I can’t judge), so I waited a while and then came in cold on Vox Machina, but after letting the tone of it wrap around me, I decided I really like it. They really take a very generic setup and let it breathe enough to make them interesting.
I also realized that their dungeonmaster/CEO/“assorted voices” guy is one of the creatives behind a guilty pleasure of mine from several years back, the microbudget “Mythica” series that is, no surprise, pretty much just a D&D campaign, with just enough money thrown at Kevin Sorbo to get him to do a day of filming so he can be on the cast for the streamers.
love how these means we’ll be getting two critical role series a year with mighty nein coming in the fall/winter :)
Good news after Star Trek went to Kurtzmans anus.
Oh my god, please that would be so awesome, finally more star trek!
Just please don’t make a repeat of season 3, that was mostly empty CGI slop ala nu trek.
Hey AMC — I’d rather see another season of Lodge 49. Or Rubicon. Not yet another series about Silicon Valley. Thanks anyway.
Oh… your still here Yellow Jackets. You may go now.
I tired watching but could never get into it. The swapping back and forth of timelines was done in such a way that I could never really get into either story line. I stopped watching at some point in season 1 when I realized I didn’t give a shit about any of the characters.
I grew up in the 70s and always found little house on the prairie to be the most bumpkin corny shit.
I guess netflix is banking that this will be their Yellowstone, as bumpkin prime time soaps are in now.
