Shots fired at Tasma Walton?

 

[Slammed]

She married Rove, she should have had all her shots by now!!

 

[CiG]

Rove is a legend.

He's like if Tom Cruise was raised in Australia instead and nobody introduced him to a weight set.

 

[Slammed]

He's not the worst 'entertainer' we have in this country but I've never really warmed to the guy. I've always thought he was better behind the camera making shows.

 

[CiG]

Maybe I'm just the right age but I thought he was pretty entertaining. Although I haven't touched a drop of his content in well over a decade lmao.

 

[Slammed]

I don't even think he's been on the screen for much in the last decade. Roving Enterprises is still producing stuff but I can't actually remember the last time I saw him on tv

Oh yeah, I meant like watching old shit online. Maybe it says something that I haven't gone on vintage Rove binges.

 

[Slammed]

Maybe you just got sick on him always wanting to say Hi to your mother and not to you.
Holy shit dude if you want to talk to my mother fucking ring her I'm not her message service!!

 

[CiG]

Did he make a lot of mother jokes? I don't even remember.

The Narkina 5 prison in Andor reminds me of THX 1138.

Not jokes it was his parting/sign off comment on every show, "Say Hello to your mother for me". I'm sure that was Rove.

Good catch--and a cool callback if intentional.

Don't suppose anyone else has watched Upright Series 1 or 2 with Tim Minchin?

Season finale of Andor was fantastic.

No but I'm somewhat interested, is it any good?

 

[Slammed]

Both seasons are brilliant. Series 2 gets a little silly, but it's good silly. Tim Minchin is a great entertainer.

Checking out Gangs of London. Series premiere was fucking amazing. There are a lot of good dramatic crime shows on TV but very few that go into proper action/thriller territory and so far this feels like the TV series equivalent of some ultraviolent 'heroic bloodshed' film which is DEFINITELY something I've always wanted to see. Hope the premiere was representative and that this keeps up. That ending fight, Jesus!!

 

[CiG]

About time motherfucker!

 

[Einherjar86]

Season finale of Andor was fantastic.

Such an amazing episode.

Spoiler

That funeral march man…

I am three episodes into Tulsa King. It is certainly no masterpiece but the dialogue has charm and is amusing and Stallone is holding his own well for his first tv show venture. Taylor Sheridan is certainly carving out his empire in the TV world.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

Still waiting on a single episode of Gangs of London to not be completely insane. Holy fuck that siege episode, I can't believe that was only 50 minutes of television with how much happened. I was so damn invested I didn't realize until halfway through the episode that none of the main cast were involved.
