[quote=ynwtf]EPs not ROd. lol?[/quote]

[quote=ynwtf]S1EP1 really threw me for a loop. Second viewing though showed me several details that I could only see after being made aware of what played out through to the end of that EP.

I REALLY enjoyed that. It felt as though the writer knew the story intimately, planting cues and reveals here and there knowing that a first-time viewer may never spot them. But on a second view, or even an entire season rewatch, that same viewer might pick up so much more texture and clarity. 

unfortunately, I couldn't watch but a few ROd so no idea if that played out as I was hoping. Besides scheduling, I do remember falling out of interest. Maybe that was just lack of time or energy to devote to it.[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois]Perhaps. It certainly seems like a show that demands a little more attention than I gave it at the time. I think I just have a hard time getting invested in any new shows these days - at least with movies I can just watch one and move on but most shows demand a level of commitment that I don't much feel like giving out these days. Like I can watch at least one or two movies (if not more) in the time it can take for one show to start getting good.[/quote]

[quote=Yoda]If it makes any difference, it starts to cohere a lot after the first few episodes.

I've got a pretty low threshold for shows that prioritize mood over things like narrative cohesion, but I found [i]Legion[/i] stayed [i]juuuust[/i] barely on the right side of that split, for the most part. It was definitely a high-wire act, but it does make an attempt to pull back from the edge a little in the season's second half.[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois][quote=doubledenim][font=century gothic]Well. That s2 of Legion snuck up out of nowhere.

I may end up regretting that cord cut after all.[/font][/quote]

I found the first couple of episodes of s1 intriguing but by the end I felt like I was forcing myself to keep watching. It's a shame since I can recognise that it's something I should like in theory but in practice I just don't feel too engaged by it (which is a problem I've been having with most shows I try to watch these days).[/quote]

[quote=Iroquois][quote=需st铖y]Ummmm . . . . I sort of forgot again. I'm truly sorry. I do this a lot lately. I forget quite a bit here and there. About 6 months ago I started cutting out a big piece of cardboard and making a calendar of the present month. It's the only way I won't forget all my bills I have to pay, appointments I need to keep, etc . . . . I call it my Duh Board. Thanks for being so sweet about it.

How has life been treating you? I hope everything's been going great.[/quote]

Yeah, I'm still getting people who message me going "oh no, am I too late" and honestly it's just as well that a lazy sumbitch like myself is the one in charge of this thing (and yet I'm still waiting on lists from certain high-profile members, but who knows what's going on with them, probably lives away from here or something). The real question is whether or not other people will want me to hurry up so it doesn't overlap with whatever the next countdown is (1930s, I think) but until someone actually says that...eh.

As for how life's treating me - I'm still here, for better or worse.[/quote]

[quote=Tacitus]A pothole buckled the Tattymobile's wheel so I'm spending Easter Tuesday waiting on a breakdown truck to take me and it to a garage.

I have now become a stereotypical middle-aged Ulsterman, complaining and swearing loudly about the quality of our roads. :p[/quote]
