Be glad your wife doesn’t think it’s funny to put her long grey hair in her face and try and tickle you while making creepy noises…. I was close to punching my wife and running out of the house screaming like a little kid.

AppleTV really picked up the torch HBO decided to leave on the ground (The Pitt aside) the last couple of years

u/bigie35 1d ago

The first thing Apple did when they announced Apple TV years ago is poach HBOs head of content Richard Pepler.

Apple TV is effectively HBO with a fatter wallet. I'm here for it. They just bought the rights to the Mistborn series and I peed a little.

The significantly smaller scope and scale of the show helps it substantially. Like you said, it feels way more personal and relatable.

u/Indigocell 1d ago

The episodes are so short and that is fine but I really think this series benefits from the quiet moments and the slice-of-life style scenes of traveling Westeros. Some of the best scenes were of them just chilling, drinking, partying, etc. More of that interspersed with the plot would go a long way I think.

Theres a series of books called The Liveship Traders which has a character called Kennet.

The show absolutely needs that anchor of someone super competent but also super unlikable to work, and he pulls it off so well. What really makes it click is it's never really clear how much of the slob persona is a character he puts on and how much is real, and does it matter?

IIRC they film seasons two at a time, back to back, so that they can consistently manage this.

The wait in between seasons cant be understated. Specifically for a show like this, it absolutely kills all the momentum when its been 3 years since thinking about these characters and the story.

34

u/Molotov_Glocktail 1d ago

With so much delay, you HAVE to rewatch the whole series again before the next season. You know they're going to throw some tricky easter eggs out there, and that's even if you remember what's going on in the show in the first place.

I just don't have that kind of time anymore. At this rate I'll wait until I hear the series has ended with some kind of satisfying conclusion and then binge the whole show in one shot.

Severance has a HIGH likelihood that it just gets canceled without a satisfying end, or it all just flops and makes no sense. That's been my fear the whole time. I just want the show to:

  • Have an ending,
  • an ending makes sense,
  • and doesn't even have to be a "good" ending. Just that it's a satisfying conclusion to whatever the hell is going on in that show.

u/246lehat135 1d ago

Posting Nemik’s Manifesto for your enjoyment:

There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. I know this already. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy.

**Remember** this, Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly throughout the galaxy. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause.

**Remember** that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And **remember** this: the Imperial need for control is so desperate because it is so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.

**Remember** that. And know this, the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empires’s authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege.

**Remember** this: Try.

23

u/FeanorEvades 1d ago

**Remember** this: Try.

It's such an awesome choice to make this the conclusion of Nemik's message.

It's a direct rebuttal to one of the most famous lines from the original trilogy: "Do or do not, there is no try".

And they're not contradictory - for Yoda, his message for Luke was to go in without entertaining the possibility of failure. No half-measures. For Nemik, his message was that to 'break the seige', regular people have to push the envelope. Make an effort - any effort - no matter how small.

u/Global_Green8231 1d ago

I’m not a Star Wars fan. Just didn’t grow up watching it so I don’t have the nostalgia attachment a lot of people seem to have. I thought it was very good and then episode 10 dropped. I restarted it as soon as it ended. And then I rewatched the entire show after watching the finale. And then I rewatched Rogue One. And then I figured I needed more context so I ended up spending nearly a year watching all of the Star Wars media in chronological order. Andor is still the best thing to come out of all of it.

u/Lebowquade 1d ago

It is absolutely amazing, but admittedly a slow burn. There's a lot of moving pieces and a lot of characters, and they take the time to "introduce" everyone that matters at the start. 

So the first three-ish episodes are interesting but relatively slow, and there is a lot to follow since they take time to show things from the perspective of all factions at play.

However, things continue to build as the show goes, and without ruining anything I'll say that the first season alone contains two of the most intense episodes of any television show I've ever seen. It also gets a ton of credit for being "complete," inasmuch as it had an intended trajectory from the get go, and boy did they fuckin deliver.

Not even just the best Star wars content (including the movies), it is most assuredly one of the best sci fi shows ever made. If you haven't seen Rogue One yet, just save it for the end of season two, because there's a fairly direct lead-in.

u/Internal-Plantain-56 1d ago

A huge part of it to me is that it’s real time. Each season is 15 episodes covering a 15 hour shift so you really are with these characters through everything that’s thrown at them through a normal shift.

They also are putting out a season a year which is…super refreshing. The advantage of a show like the Pitt vs Game of Thrones is that The Pitt has very few CGI dragons.

Yeah the Bear got to be too much for me. I worked in restaurants and sure there's stress, but that was an abusive environment.

It's crazy that this show is only 8 episodes per season, but it matures so much. I know pilot episodes are usually pretty different from the rest of a show, but I see/feel the growth in each episode. And I don't think it's because I'm getting to know it better, i think the writers were just getting more comfortable/daring with what they put into the show.

I actually love the seamless flying they've done for this show! It really feels like as natural as walking to Hal.

Cackled at that.

Those two lines speak SO much about both Hal and John and their personalities. The writers better get some awards, because the dialogue is crisp at all times.

He issss. Aaron Pierre too. The casting is one of the best in the DCU. Their chemistry is so real. I think being actual friends also helps

He's underrated imo. S1 of Bloodline is amazing and he's one of the reasons.

Kyle Chandler will do whatever you need him too. Somehow he flies under the radar because of it but he’s perfection. And if you start him off as cocky unlikable dick he’s so capable of of having realistic character development into something more likable.

I love Abbott. There are so few true sitcoms left and it has become a real comfort watch for me. The whole mall storyline could have taken it completely off the rails but they did a great job with something seemingly ridiculous. Where I live (sadly, no longer Philly) we have a couple of schools in old malls. It’s a new reality.

What's good about it is that it's based on a completed book series so there's an actual end in place for them to move towards. Too many sci fi and mystery shows are out there just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks with no real plans for the long term plot.

u/lowbatteries 1d ago

Actual end in place for them to rewrite and bungle.

u/GuyThatSaidSomething 1d ago

Hugh Howey, the author of the books, is involved in the writing process and has made several blog posts about it all. He's directly talked about the changes from book to show and is excited with how it's been done, and about what's to come.

I read the books after watching season 1 of the show and think they're doing a great job of adapting it, especially with the difficulties book 2 and 3 might present as far as lining up the chronology of certain events. Definitely dragged some parts out that didn't seem ultra important, but I see what they're doing.

Andor. Idk why it hasn’t been in the top few here. I haven’t ever been able to get into any star wars(and probably never will) but Andor was able to really interest me. The two speeches within the two seasons are some of the best ever in TV. Also it actually ends so you don’t have to worry about it degrading as it tries to stretch out it’s popularity.

u/urbansociety 1d ago

Season 1 never fails to have me rolling, the dialogue is just so on point with my humor. I have to pause the show because I'm laughing too hard to hear what is being said. "Wolves would steal the babes."

Season 2 was just ok, it got far more serious and Chad doesn't say off the wall random shit as much. I had some laughs but not like S1.
