    So I watched Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist because the commercials were very charming

    I'm much less charmed by the actual show, though it is the first episode. Dialogue leaned very exposition-heavy and there's a particular character whose jokes are awful

    The impetus for her hearing music was also super goofy and not in a good way
    she gets bitten by a radioactive MRI machine

    Especially when I'm not sure she really needed a specific impetus. The commercials had me assuming it just happened

    What is this cursed show? "Alright, we're going to have someone sing karaoke while sticking their hand or head into containers that they can't see into, and the containers will have, like, snakes that bite or skunks in them. We'll just have them sign this 85 page waiver first. Cool?"

    Oh shit, Robin Lord Taylor's in You season 2. That should be fun, at least.

    Ah, it stinks, it sucks, it's anthropologically unjust

    The previous Fargo season was kinda meh imo but this cast definitely has me interested

    The Fargo trailer could kind of lose the first minute or so, and still work. Except that it works nicely to set up a theme (and, like, just don't have the twist be that the white guys stumble into a win, gosh, shucks.)

    But yeah, that's always gonna be a good time, or at least an interesting one.

    Except a few Jason Schwartzman lines that just don't work, but maybe that's a very subjective thing. He just has a seriously limited range for me, and any attempt at playing him as serious or intimidating at this point falls so flat.

    I watched a lot of Chopped tonight and I think I have a new favorite episode

    It is a Chocolate Challenge so every dish has some sort of chocolate

    One contestant is a handsome Swiss chef who specializes in aphrodisiacs, and they drop in porno music cues whenever he does stuff

    Another is a 26 year old weirdo who owns his own restaurant and is making a movie called COOK about being a line chef and has a hilariously horrible looking trailer that plays in his intro

    And also, he hates chocolate

    It is wonderful

    Shooby ALMOST lost me, and then he did a bunch of pushups

    Also: It's hard to overstate how much "people can swear, like people do" elevates this whole enterprise

    Also also: Ed's gimmick is GROSS

    Carnival Row is so trashy, but it takes itself so serious. Also all this far stuff feels so extremely tacked on.
    The setting is just Victorian England having colonized Ireland and lost a war against Germany for it. Now London is full of Irish refugees. The English are all horribly racist against them of course. Also the Irish all have wings or horns to make the racism easier.

    The story itself has nothing to do with fae or anything magical really except for the murder weapon. It's all very cliché and predictable.

    There's also a racism sideplot that is even moreso both of those.

    To top it off it's a frontrunner for most unintentionally hilarious sex of 2019 and 2020.

    At least the ridiculous names make sense now. This was created by Travis Beachem. They're all just Victorian Jaeger names.

    Per Deadline, CBS ordered a pilot for Clarice, a crime drama show project based on the character Clarice Starling, set after the events of Silence of the Lambs

    In 1993 (a year after Silence of the Lambs), the show is a deep dive into the untold personal story of Clarice Starling as she returns to the field to pursue serial murderers and sexual predators while navigating the high stakes political world of DC
    Hannibal Lecter not expected to be part of the show
    Written and directed by Alex Kurtzman and Jenny Lumet

    Yes but that was a scary gross show that had themes and imagery.

    This is a CBS crime show. So the killers are stereotypes and the political navigation is a bunch of damned pansies keeping her from getting results
