Re: 2016-2017 TV Season

I enjoyed this very much. The story came full circle as the Hindenberg ended up crashing one way or another. Found it fascinating how little changes in the timeline may huge changes in the future where people cease to exist.

In the next few weeks, according to the previews, we'll see Abe Lincoln and Nazis. Can't wait!

Might have missed this but didn't only

Spoiler

two people die on the Hindenberg

(as opposed to 36 in reality)?

I put this in spoiler tags because there isn't a dedicated thread for Timeless.

I thought this was the best episode of Kevin Can Wait so far...

Yes I enjoyed this one too. Good sign.

Outward laughs are few but it's entertaining enough. Hope they keep building.

The second episode was just as good. The final scenes in both episodes left you wanting more, such good writing. NBC have already given it an 18 episode full season.

This is gold (so far) and delivered on cleverly crafted surprises at the end of each of the first two episodes.

Finally caught Timeless last night, so it's pretty much a combination of Quantum Leap, Butterfly Effect, and Final Destination?

I'm in.

Kevin Can Wait was good this week.

I wonder if we'll ever see Chore Weasel again?

Kevin Can Wait was solid again this week. Encouraging.

Series Premiere of American Housewife was tonight. Not funny at all. Feels like basically every other sitcom on ABC making fun of the suburbs, with main protagonist narrating, etc. And are we supposed to give a **** about this lady being fat? Who the hell cares. Absolutely boring. Waste of Oswald from Drew Carey.

I didn't watch, but she's fat?

Every time I've seen her she looks adorable

Show itself didn't look interesting but I thought about checking it out just for her

Might be a Sara Rue type thing

Her thinner pictures don't do anything for me, and her current heftiness is even more unappealing. You probably saw a real flattering pic of her l3ulvl.



They're giving Matt LeBlanc a pretty big wife in his upcoming TV series too.

I don't even think she looks that bad in the unflattering pic lol. They must be making a point to make her look less attractive with the loose flannel.

I did an image search just now and can agree she doesn't look great in the top results with crazy makeup, but this snapshot from Eastbound and Down says it all:

(I'll throw an NSFW in just to be safe)

No that's literally the plot of the show, that she's a fat lady in a fake, plastic, fitness-obsessed suburban town or whatever. She talks about it through the entire episode.

Pitch seems like something that should've been made into a movie more than a TV show. I think it might've been a better movie. Especially with the amount of MLB ballpark usage, and using fox commentary, and TV graphics and actual mlb camera angles and everything. Seems like a lot for a TV show.

Didn't see last night's episode but I'm watching. I was into it because I thought it was an interesting concept and because baseball is life but now that I've seen it...

It's not bad. It's very weird, I can't judge it fairly as a show because they didn't get the baseball right and it blows my mind. How can MLB be involved in this, they've got tons of people from the league, real players are going to get involved, they're filming in the real Petco I believe, but the baseball looks so odd? The pitching deliveries are something that only someone who has never thrown a pitch would think is accurate. The dude from last week who supposedly was throwing gas and they show his delivery and he didn't even bend his elbow, his arm was straight the whole time, it's hard to describe because it was so goofy but it killed me. It's a show about a chick who pitches... but every time they show her pitching it reminds me that this could never happen. We need Charlie Sheen "I'm going to juice up and throw my arm out if need be" dedication from these people.

There's no drive in her delivery or anything, it just blows my mind that a show about baseball by baseball people gets the baseball so wrong. This is why we can't have nice things.

Good support for Kevin James on Kevin Can Wait. The older daughter is adorable, the wife is actually funny and the brother makes me laugh when he walks in the room-getting better every episode.

She looks good to me, liked her on Mike & Molly also! I think we need more realistic portrayals of women on TV. Why does every woman on TV need to be a certain "size"?
