    So i'm giving The Passage a try.

    Only mid way on episode 2 but so far this show isn't too bad. It's a bit too heartwarming for a genre show about psychic vampires, but maybe that changes?

    A lot more shit happens in the book before anything wholesome happens. I'm thinking the show is going to go dark

    I'm officially all caught up on Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Alan Ritchson playing a very young Scully is maybe my favorite casting so far on the show.

    You shouldn't try to predict where Lifetime's You will go.

    That is the path of a fool.

    Lifetime's You does whatever it wants whenever it wants.

    when you are watching lifetime's you, you will be bombarded with plot and smut

    you will not believe, when summing up where you are at in the show, that you are only that far in the show

    it is basically the perfect approximation of what's in my brain at any given time, minus some pigs

    Lifetime's You saw that every adult character on Riverdale was a monster and said, "Hold my artisan-crafted IPA."

    Besides two supporting characters, everyone else in that entire universe is the worst.

    The joy of Lifetime's You is waiting for every character to reveal their monstrous nature.

    Because it will happen in a way that'll either make you laugh or hurl profanity at your TV screen.

    in lifetime's you, one of the villains is peach sallinger (of those sallingers. you know. the catcher in the rye guy.)

    she is played by a pretty little liar and negs everyone at all times

    peach is maybe the middle of the pack of monsters in this show

    Yes, very

    It is essentially episode commentary and it's hosted by Marc Evan Jackson and it has fake ads read by the cast

    CW finally ordered a pilot for the Lost Boys show they developed with Rob Thomas in 2016. Thomas is busy with the Hulu Veronica Mars, so this will be redeveloped by writer Heather Mitchell (Scandal, Grey's Anatomy)

    After their dad's sudden death, two bros move to Santa Carla with their mom, who hopes to start fresh in the town she grew up in. But the bros find themselves drawn deeper into the seductive world of Santa Carla's eternally beautiful youthful undead

    I've been very gradually watching A Very English Scandal, and I don't know if it's Brexit or what but while it's clearly very good, I'm finding that particular brand of farcical bleakness hard to take in more than ten minute doses.

    Doesn't help that it's a true story, either.

    Can Santa Carla people visit Santa Clarita?

    They could have an undead exchange program.

    The only important question is if The Frog Brothers will be involved.

    I'm not a big fan of Lost Boys the movie, it just never hit me quite right

    But I recognize that I should be a fan of it

    So I'm very interested in how this will turn out

    They're going to CGI him using the sexiest parts of the sexiest people in the world.

    No one man is sexy enough on his own.

    Where the heck do they even go from here?
