The defintion of hell is knowing a show is incredibly well-received in its first season, but if people don’t become machines churning out tweets, content, and rewatching 24/7, there’s no likelihood it’ll get a chance to tell its whole story. This shit is madness. Shows in different genres shouldn’t have to pit-battle for dominance. First seasons are MEANT to be baselines establishing worlds and characters, not complete storylines. The idea that this golden age of television has turned into “get it done in one or get out” is revolting.
#the sandman#paper girls#some of the hot takes on Twitter are breaking me#‘why don’t we know the whole story? it’s bad writing if you don’t have a complete story in the first season’ girl WHAT since WHEN#how many excellent shows were weak as fuck in S1?? and here we’re getting shows with incredible first seasons fighting for their lives#like fuckin Christ dude the idea of long form storytelling is allowing your story time and space to spread out#otherwise we would only make movies#i am so sick of this edge of my seat fear that any new show I fall in love with will get axed because the higher powers don’t care about art#this has to be a bubble right? this has to pop at some point and go back to shows valued on what they are#and don’t even get me started on creators having to beg for good reviews to balance out review-bombing from shitheads#if every one star review is clearly bigoted from the comments? why is anyone taking them into account??#why is there no way to manage this shit aside from creators being like ‘please help us”’

The Expanse | Season 1 (2015-16), Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby
#the expanse#theexpanseedit#aaaah i missed my space babies so much!#excellent first season#so much foreshadowing is unreal!#knowing what comes next most of this season felt like an introduction#also i realized how much i forgot and how far apart the season were from one another#and i can't wait to have a coherent idea of the whole show watching them back to back#tv 2024#i made this#i just want a tag for the things i personally put out into the world

guess who just watched jessica jones in the year of our lord 2024
#there's almost no shot i'm the first person to assign this post to this episode#bc like that's quite literally what is going on#also to clarify i didn't watch the whole show; just s1 and the above s2 episode#i've come away from every defenders show i've watched thinking it was excellent television#but i've never felt the need to watch any past season one or two#anyways i hated kilgrave with every fibre of my being but also had the most incredible time watching him#jessica jones#krysten ritter#kilgrave#david tennant#eka darville#running my mouth#made this with my hands#marvel

hey what the fuck did they put in slf ep18
that was like. sincerely. without exaggeration. easily one of the best fight scenes i've seen in years. maybe one of the best i've seen ever. what started as "oh silly vrmmo show but looks pretty good" has gotten better and better, week after week, to the point where i can hardly believe how good it is
the animation was downright stellar in ep18, but the whole wethermon fight was excellent to me. i feel like i can say i watch A Lot of battle anime, and this was seriously among the best of the best. from start to finish the energy just never faltered (and the build-up in terms of lore was basically flawless too)
i'm just. completely blown away by how i had no expectations whatsoever for this series and it's quickly turned into one of my favorites of this (and last) season. it is silly, sure, but it is gripping! it doesn't take itself too seriously, but it's earnest in a way that just works so well
like the return of the stupid bird mask? epic fucking moment. even though it is objectively a silly ass map, it was such a !!!!!!!!! hype sequence when it returned. kickass nonsense is the best way i can think of to describe it. like sure it's nonsense, but it absolutely kicks ass
really really really hoping for another season now, 25 episodes won't be nearly enough
#crab watches#shangri-la frontier#episodes that make me look up the staff immediately#someone needs bonus and a raise#i would not usually give anime of the season to a series in its second cour#if slf were to be aots for me it would be up against last season's show (which is difficult)#(because then it goes up against migi to dali)#(which was also excellent in a very different way and probably can't be defeated for me)#if i make an exception and put slf in the running for winter 2024#then i think the winter 2024 top 3 for me would become#1. bucchigiri?! 2. slf 3. dunmesh#possibly even slf taking first WHAT IS HAPPENING. HOW IS IT THIS GOOD!!!!!!

love how the message of season 4 was that you have to have extremely good grades and have gone to parties to be able to successfully adjust to university
#nhie s4 spoilers#nhie s4#nhie#never have i ever#nhie critical#if you had mediocre grades or were too uptight might as well not even bother going since you're apparently fucked#like. devi ben and fab all got into an ivy and seemed to be enjoying university and doing well right away#meanwhile we have eleanor who gets 1 rejection and gives up on furthering her education entirely (why didn't she think about film school??)#and paxton who worked So Hard to get into college only to immediately drop out just because his roommate was shitty#& blair who was an excellent student but partied too hard and failed out and tried to keep it a secret because it was 'kind of humiliating'#like. blair mentioned that she was burnt out but then it was almost immediately reframed as her having been 'too perfect' in high school#the only character who never planned to go to college was trent who was so bad at school he had to repeat his senior year#why weren't there any students who had done well at high school yet struggled academically even though they were genuinely trying?#or students who hadn't done super well in high school but then thrived in university when they had more freedom to choose their classes#where were the top students who didn't get into their first choice school? or knew that they didn't want to go to college at all?#obviously the show couldn't cover every possible permutation of how people decide whether to go to college and then how they adjust to it#but it's uhhh not great that the 3 'smartest' main characters were admitted into ivies and immediately thrived at university#while the 3 who struggled with school or prioritized non-academic interests either didn't try to go to college or gave up extremely fast#the show has always had moments where characters will be elitist but it seemed much more prominent & tied into the narrative this season#my post#my meta#tag ramble

they really have some super nice seiyuus for jshk and for what
#me listening to tsuchigomori in the newest hshk ep: his seiyuu was WHO????????#me listening to tiara: HER SEIYUU IS WHOOOOOOOOOO????#and this is without getting into the excellent casting choice that was miss megumi ogata#but yeah even if the art Has improved since the first season i still think it. looks Bad lol#of course its hard for Anything to compare to how pretty the manga is but iiittt couldve been a bit better#the backgrounds are gorgeous tho#they really carry the show#i liked it when i first watched but now that i know it usually looks better. well#but anw its so sad that they animated the chapter set immediately after the zombie apocalypse but not the zombie apocalypse <//3#it was of course not going to happen but#jbksh#mar's midnight rambles

#i just watched the episode with tks sponsor#and like carlos being jealous but then he figures it out and invites the sponsor over when tk needs him#that last scene is genuinely one of the sweetest scenes omg#i really love how in s3 there's a lot more carlos storylines#i feel like in the first season especially and also kinda in the second#he didnt really have much of a personality beyond being the guy tk was seeing#but now hes getting so much more screen time and i love it#i love him#he is such a sweet character#i love the plotline that im assuming is leading to him being a detective#i obviously love his and tks relationship#i loved the stuff from a couple episodes back with him and grace#that was such an excellent dynamic#god i do just really love the characters in this show#i feel like every ep im just falling in love with a different character#im so attached#even when theyre doing dumb shit or being annoying or frustrating#im just so fond of pretty much all of them#911 lone star lb

#the eddie happened a couple days ago&i keep seeing footage of tourists almost getting dragged out into the ocean.#&-- this cannot be stressed enough-- i find this hilarious bc no one died&also bc i am inherently a bad person lmao.#but also bc like. this is an excellent example of WHY locals cannot fucking stand tourists lmao.#the eddie is a surf competition that is only held when the surf can match the height necessary for the competition.#like this is one of the most dangerous&prestigious surf competitions in the world. the lifeguards they have watching the beach#are seasoned pros who regularly drag ppl out of north shore riptides. which is a good thing bc despite all this#&despite all the lifeguard warnings&despite not one singular local being on the shore#tourists got swept up&there was a mad scramble that STOPPED THE COMPETITION bc they needed to drag whole families out the water.#several lifeguards almost died trying to save someones dog.#this competition is only held when waimea's waves cap 30ft-- they have cancelled the competition before bc#waves were smaller than anticipated. its specifically named to honour Eddie Aikau a surfer who died setting out to sea#to try to save the Hokulea the first time it went out sailing w/ no navigation equipment&got stuck in a calm belt.#all these facts together give me a headache when i think of how much more regulated this stupid competition is going to be#when there have NEVER been issues like this before mostly bc the eddie isnt usually announced so so many tourists show up.#ive never even gotten to GO ppl line up down the north shore for literally a day in advance to be able to see it happen.#chxjjsbxkxbjsxnajxnsj 🙃🙃🙃

as it turns out Sengoku Basara is not a good cross stitching show because I just want to watch it instead xD
#don't mind me having a moment#it's short at least so I should be able to finish it in a few days#i love this show so much#although i'm still not sure why since imo the first season doesn't get good until ep 8. out of 12.#(but then the 2nd season is excellent)#(i don't remember the movie at all)#(and judge end does not exist to me)#(i mean judge end could be a cross stitching show but that would mean watching judge end)

I decided I was never gonna be emotionally prepared for Shadow and Bone Season 2 so I might as well watch it emotionally unprepared and let me tell you THAT WAS A BAD IDEA
#THE FIRST TEN MINUTES HAS FLASHBACKS OF KAZ#AND NIKOLAI SHOWS UP WHERE I WASNT EXPECTING HIM#ITS MIDNIGHT HERE DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW HARD IN TRYING NOT TO SCREAM RN#ACTUALLY LITERALLY JUMPED BACK AND SLAPPED MY HAND OVER MY MOUTH#I was so caught up trying to figure out if they’re doing soc first book this season#that I was just like who is this young guy he looks familiar#NOT OKAY#I can’t handle this series#I love the books too much#hunger games really ruined my expectations for good book adaptations#sandb#why does kaz look so old#the problem is the two series have such diff tones#TWENTY MINUTES IN AND WE CONFIRM JESPER IS GRISHA#IM GONNA PASS OUT#BLUE FROCK BLUE FROCK BLUE FROCK#the barrel doesn’t belong to kings. it belongs to bastards.#an excellent line#better if they you know set it up#okay half an episode later i have a verdict#wont continue. perfectly fine but total fanfiction#it gives all the really important parts of the books w/o earning them

I just started black sails bc you put it on my dash enough and also Toby Stephens, and it’s exceLLENT (watched a season in a day) bUT is this a “gay” pirate show (the men yearn but never actually touch) or a GAY pirate show (certified fresh, homegrown, free range faggotry)
Thank u for yr time
I will happily answer this question for you but first you have to answer why the explicitly lesbian and bisexual women featured in the first season that you watched aren’t gay enough for you to classify this show as gay
