True Detective Season 2 and I'm not enjoying it in the slightest.

Additionally, is it wrong that I liked True Detective more when it had the possibility of a kind of "mundane supernatural" feel. That maybe the hallucinations and shit weren't quite hallucinations?

I have been watching sens8 and it is a hot mess, but it's an entertaining mess, which I guess is the Wachowski special?

In the episode I watched last night there was a scene where one of the main characters watching a symphony causes all of the main characters to psychically remember their births in vivid detail. It's a very, very long scene. This was about 10 minutes after a shootout. Inbetween a cop bonded with his copdad.

Definitely isn't wrong, but I'm still holding out hope that this season will pick up, because it hasn't been atrocious

E: I  meant isn't

I haven't watched True Detective, but I would watch a show called False Detective about a dude pretending to be a detective and obstructing justice through his self delusion.

Daredevil was fantastic, I can't wait for Season 2.

Season 3 of Orange is the New Black is certainly a television show. It's very enjoyable, though as far as I've gotten (like 5 episodes in) there doesn't seem to be a major conflict to drive the season forward. Hopefully that changes soon.

I watched the first season of True Detective and hated it. The characters were garbage, the M-Theory crap (and the brooding protagonist) were pretentious, and the show's approach to cosmic horror was botched.

I'm closer to the end now and some of the stuff that's happening does have a little more consequence to it. Still kind of feels like a season of subplots, with the whole "prison" element feeling more like an inconvenience to the characters (in a lot of cases) than anything else.

I've been watching The Chris Gethard Show, the new episodes on Fusion as well as a handful of the old public access episodes on Youtube, and man I love this show so much. I can't believe none of my weirdo hipster nerd friends ever told me about this, I had to find out about it from Conan O'Brien of all people. It's everything I could ever want from a talk show. The sleep deprivation episode was beautiful.

Finally catching up on Parks and Recreations.
It starts a bit slow which is why I couldn't connect to it at first, but I gave it another chance and I'm glad that I did.

The first season of Parks and Rec is basically a spin-off of The Office.

Parks and Rec is a great show for lazy-weekend binge watching.

Don't know if anyone caught Your Pretty Face Is Going to Hell when it was last on nearly 2 years ago (hurray Adult Swim scheduling), but the second season has been pretty great. It's pretty obvious they were given a bigger budget to work with and they ran with it. The episode with Jack McBrayer as a shoulder angel is my favorite so far.
