Did season one end up good?
I think I remember watching the first episode or two, but got bored around the time they did a gravity slingshot that's been done in a million sci-fi movies/shows.

Very interesting.
Netflix sued by chess icon over a line in The Queen's Gambit
Netflix has been decked by a $5 million lawsuit for defamation involving one line in the finale of The Queen’s Gambit. The suit has been filed by chess extraordinaire Nona Gaprindashvili, who claims Netflix knowingly said falsehoods about her in the show.www.avclub.com
Nah, getting tossed at the first hearing. For one thing she would need to prove it has cost her something specific and quantifiable, which seems very unlikely.
It's not good and alot of the characters will piss you off similar to Lost In Space. But unlike LiS, those characters in this at least died horribly.
It's a defamation suit, which is a bit different from my understanding as it mainly needs to prove serious harm to her reputation. Regardless, I don't think she has a case – every single biopic, fictional or not, would be in big trouble if she had. We'll see. But it's still very interesting I think. Especially how Netflix reacted to her initial complain.
news friends, unless im super late. missed MSNBC shuffling things.
Surprised, Joshua Johnson show didnt get into a second year.

I don't hey if anyone saw it but Amazon is going to release a series based on "I Know What You Did Last Summer":
The series is scheduled to be released on October 15, 2021.

Not sure if anyone else posted it before but today I found out that:
-Babysitter's Club S2 is coming to Netflix 10/11/2021 - https://deadline.com/2021/08/the-ba...n-2-premiere-date-netflix-trailer-1234822444/ (TheNatureBoy G_Shumi I think both of you would really enjoy this if you haven't watched it yet)

Aww. That's understandable about Dead to Me. I just hope Christina Applegate will be able to finish filming with little-to-no issues.
And, Nabbit, The Babysitter's Club? Isn't that a bit out of our age range? (Yes, I realize the irony of how many other shows I watch that are meant for teenagers. Lol.) I know my younger sister would enjoy it. But what makes it a good watch?
Right, I thought it would be, too! But it kinda scratches that One Day at a Time and The Middle itch. With a dash of stuff like Parenthood and FNL or something Mindy Kaling would write. The kids' lives are really well-realized, the characters are endearing but richly drawn, and the dynamics between the girls feels just so true to life. Like the main character is a super difficult kid in some ways. In the 90s she'd have just been a Mary Sue. So I think you might dig it. The last couple episodes fell flat but the rest were surprisingly good.
A bit too young for me, but do I hear good things about the show.
I was surprised to learn that yesterday. They had to recast her character in the show. They used the lead from Finding Ohana. I'm surprised they didn't write off the character. It's unusual to see straight-up recasts these days.
Another day, another deal:

I need to catch up on everything Power related that came out since the series finale. Glad to hear at least some of it is good.
I would recommend starting with Kanan, since it's way better(writing/acting/setting) than the Tariq show*(probably outta all Powers imo) and you don't really need to know anything else since it's a prequel.
* = Book 2 Ghost/Tariq is kinda divisive since ppl hate Tariq so much lol. Seems like he has the Joffrey from GoT reaction. I didn't mind Tariq in the og series so I gave the show a fair shot. If you liked OG Power, you will like this imo.
lol I sorta messed up the title, it's Book 3

The Queen's Gambit won Outstanding Limited Series. I'm very happy with that.
But I think Lovecraft Country deserved to win something. Sad it didn't.
The only good thing about the Emmys is that it kicks off the new fall season.
At least Jean Smart won something...
While I liked Queen's Gambit, Jenkins not winning for direction is certainly something...
I'm finally going to start Lovecraft Country soon (especially with Oct coming up), since I had waaaay too much to get through still last year, when it aired. I guess it's still self-contained, despite originally having plans to continue with another season?
It could have continued, but I think it's pretty much self-contained.

Courtney B Vance won best Guest Actor in Drama, they just gave it before the show.
And lol Claire Foye won Guest Actress for basically a VO.
Oh! And if you would like to watch the first two episodes of Midnight Mass a few days in advance:
It was mentioned in the Mike Flanagan thread, but I guess I'll repost it here :)
The tweet was posted today at midnight and I have no idea if there are places left, but it's worth a try if you're interested.

those Midnight Mass reviews tho
I'm not a horror fan but its great to see Rahul Kohli get a big gig like this. Ravi was my favorite character on iZombie.
oh you're right just rewatched the trailer, he's there in a very "blink and you'll miss him" way tho.
Ravi got a promotion.He definitely is also in Midnight Mass! :)
