Taxi Driver is just outside top 100 on IMDB for a reason.

I’m not a huge fan of the show because they’ve made a lot of jokes they call satire that just disguise some of the racist tendencies of the characters. However, I will admit that I’m fully behind them on this, and so acknowledge their huge contributions to the satirical realm of comedy. Good for them.

Bit late but never saw this before, but...there's not exactly a disguise to the racist tendencies of some of the characters. The whole point is showing exactly things like their racist tendencies, which is why black, white, yellow, red, whatever people are always in one way or another ridiculed, just like women are, men are, straight people are, gay people are, muslims are, Christians are, atheist are, poor people are, rich people are. Almost literally every 'group' one can think of.

That's what they're made for. To create hype. But I don't get how it can get that much hype.
Personally I'm rather interested by The Plot against America. It's a pretty thought provoking book.

But it general I'm much less hyped about it than I was about 2019.

I’m super excited for the New Pope. Also, the continuation of Barry and Curb Your Enthusiasm. I’m also excited by The Plot Against American. I’ve heard some interesting things about The Outsiders. Plus, John Oliver to top it all off.

Another new HBO show dropped today. It’s called “His Dark Materials” and it’s an alternate dimension, mystery, big brother, conspiracy, sci-fi, magic show. It has a lot of potential potential, but the first episode wasn’t as gripping as “Watchmen”. I believe this show is also based off a book(s). I’ll definitely watch the rest of the season, but it’s a unique look and tone for HBO. It’s normal your normal HBO or television show for that matter. I’m genuinely curious to see where they go with it.

 

HBO still killing the game this year.

And a journalist just saved the protagonist. +1500 pts

Thanks man, always nice when you're planning to watch something and someone drops a major spoiler bomb out of nowhere. Love it.

Yeah not really a spoiler. Very small part of the episode, and it doesn’t really change the story. Sorry about that, I’ll make sure to add the spoiler post from now on.
