Topic: The Unoffical TV Show Mega Thread

Finally got around to watching Owl House: For The Future and am on the verge of throwing up from happiness, oh my god oh my god oh my god oh my god WHAT. A. SHOW. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

Finished The Neighbors on Hulu, by the same people who made Galavant that I mentioned earlier... Pretty decent show, liked the humor, only 2 seasons...

How has Disney made Extraordinary? The show reeks of Channel 4 British sitcom through and through and wouldn't look out of place next to the likes of Spaced, Skins, Dead Pixels or Misfits.

Love that mix of awkward and punchy brash humour, the casting of "Jizzlord" is possibly the greatest bit of casting of all time and the soundtrack slaps. It's right on the now with the likes of Wet Leg, Self Esteem and Slowthai plus throws in all time indie favourites like The Clash, Spiritualized and The Flaming Lips too.

If Velma is actually building to the Scooby doo is A humans brain surgically put into a dog’s body I actually think fans of Scooby doo will collectively loose their minds

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika ...Wat.

I'm starting to think Velma might actually be one of the greatest pieces of meta-work since Beavis & Butthead, where teenagers blankly laughed at a telly which was showing teenagers blankly laughing at a telly.

The irreverent adult cartoon sitcom has it's lost power it once had. The Simpsons created outrage for showing the decay of the Americana nuclear family has been spun into well they are wholesome loving family as they go to church, South Park which has a warning on the show to not take it seriously only to create actual political/social terms for use in the mainstream zeitgeist and then Rick & Morty fans gets celebrated for how "smart" they are for watching the show yet Velma comes along with no apologies saying it's gonna be offensive and controversial which no one believed it would is now having people hate watch it to be offended by it like a new modern Howard Stern.

In terms of playing people so they can absorb their hate to fuel the show you have to admit it's a job very well done. 👍

@SlashFuture yep lore wise spoilers There is a S.C.O.O.B.I program where they collect brains for military reasons something that shaggys grandma is a part of. it’s sad a show is so successful based solely on upsetting its audience. Because it isn’t good I tired to give it a fair shot and it’s truly awful

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Ha ha ha... Oh wait, you weren't joking? ....I have no idea how to respond to that then....

@SlashFuture velma is a hole and you can never reach the bottom. I guess we will know for sure when the season finale drops next week

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika Well at least the end is next week... hopefully...

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika @SlashFuture Did you see that The Guardian gave it a four out of five score? Crazy, I tell you.

@TeaCatherine Are you kidding me? A four out of five? That's insane...

@SlashFuture Yup, from what I can tell, it's not the type of place you should go for TV or gaming stuff.

@TeaCatherine Wow, I guess that's the case... Sheesh!

@SlashFuture it’s most likely getting renewed

@TeaCatherine the guardian shouldn’t be taken seriously for reviews they gave Mario plus rabbids 2 a bad review because it wasn’t a platformer and there wasn’t a sound when collecting coins

@EaglyTheKawaiiShika 🙃

Saw Russell T Davies on Graham Norton Show. Doctor Who Christmas episodes are back! Christmas will be the new doctor's first full episode. November will be three specials starring David Tennant & Catherine Tate (dona noble).

@WoomyNNYes will that be the Disney+ series?

The more people hate on Velma the more I can't help but think it's brilliant. I couldn’t stomach the show myself as it’s a try hard but the way it's playing the smart marks is uber tier trolling. lol

"I hate Velma as it’s offensive and controversial"

"Aren’t those irreverent sweary adult cartoons meant to be not taken seriously as they intend to be offensive"

"But no, it's making fun of everyone"

"You mean like South Park does"

"No, it's making fun of their own fans"

"You mean like Rick & Morty does"

"But no one cares or watches it"

"Hasn't all the people become emotionally invested into hate watching Velma turned it into ratings hit and people complaining about it keeps it trending on the social media webs like other must see tv which has now powered into pop culture relevance more than another so-so Scooby Doo show would have"

"But I hate it!"

@WoomyNNYes I'm still in two minds myself. Russell did a great job making modern Who but towards the end of his run was just phoning it in and I honestly found it creepy how every companion was treated badly because they weren’t Billie Piper but still a change of writer and a change of Doctor is always a good injection of energy so I'll be watching.

I dunno why everyone is getting so het up about a adult piss-take of a kids cartoon. It's not like they've killed your firstborn.
