    The Witcher

    This might be the strangest show I've ever watched. Cavill is excellent as Geralt, and the writing and atmosphere of the show when Geralt is on screen is spot on. And then there's everything else... which is confoundingly bad. How is it possible to understand the atmosphere so well when Cavill...

    Yes, shows/movies focused on dialogue and on screen actions are shows/movies I tend to enjoy.

    The Expanse

    Okay, so the last two responses have me convinced this show has nuance and is worth watching. That's really what I wanted to know. "Is what is happening on screen because there is a story that is unfolding slowly with intent, or is what is happening on screen because the writers are doing what...

    The Expanse

    Alright that's fair, I came here for exactly this type of response. But if all this does happen for a reason then why wouldn't I keep watching the show? The intellectual problems you are describing but then say are answered would be a reason for me to continue, not a reason for me to stop. So...

    Episode 3, the British dude from Mad Men Jared Harris, who I know is a good actor.

    The Expanse

    That's fine, but doesn't explain why a single character speaks in one accent in one scene and then switches in the next for no reason. Like completely switches... to the point where you think they're from another country entirely. I'm not saying character A doesn't have the same accent as...

    Household Major Appliances

    How expensive would it be to actual get venting over your range? It does make quite a difference, especially when trying to brown meat or reduce stocks and such, unless you don't mind smoking out your entire house and possibly setting off your smoke alarm. Your kitchen has to be close to at...

    The Expanse

    Wow, apparently I could be a writer too. "These budget actors can't do the accent we want" "Just pretend it's every accent and hundreds of years still haven't solidified it, cuz that makes perfect sense and definitely happens, even though it doesn't and earth is actual proof" I get it, if you...

    Also what the fuck is with the accents? One minute a character is trying to sound Creole and the next Chinese?

    The Expanse

    This show is... weird? I just started watching this. The first 2 episodes are actually pretty good. They got me on board and there was a decent amount of intrigue in the 3 factions they set forth. Then the next 3-4 episodes are just... what? It was like someone who actually knows how to write...

    In that case do you know any local restaurant owners or chefs? Because I've always felt that if you can get into a restaurant depot/chef outlet your money will go a lot further than the "consumer grade" high end stuff. I've never actually been in one of those outlets that requires the secret...

    Have you thought about induction at all or are you strictly looking for gas ranges? Because induction seems pretty awesome with the limiting factor being price, which you don't seem concerned about.

    Some people also say that Humans love patterns and find them even when they aren't there. "Hey let's shut off the squiggly red line around 2006 but still pretend this is somehow consequential"

    Surprised it doesn't happen more often. How "hard" is it to make sure you're in the right IM window when making fun of one of your co-workers, or that you didn't "reply-all" when asking your boss why your co-workers most recent email makes them sound like they just graduated kindergarten? Shit...

    Helga also doesn't seem like a very off putting name. It's a viking name. I'd definitely fuck a chick named Helga with no regerts. Edna on the other hand... Or Butch... No joke I have an aunt named Butch.

    Marvel Universe stuff

    Which is fine by me, because I have irreversible super hero fatigue at the moment anyway. So if they kept churning out passable to good content I'd feel obligated to at least watch trailers and they'd get enough viewership and make enough money to keep churning out crap. This should make it...

    Which is a terrible approach in a market where there are so many options, especially when they offer the worst streaming service. HAHA! Think you'll get live TV and sports from your cable provider via their streaming service that you already pay for?! Think again! Pay for ours! Even though...

    The Boys

    Prime Video has, by far, the worst UI. They want you to ask Alexa to search for you rather than just giving you a button for genre/subgenre. Actually none of the streaming services have subgenres on those stick apps. They exist if you use Netflix on your computer, for instance, but no way to do...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Unlikely, the tech in modern WoW is such that the more people there are in an area the more HP quest mobs have which gives you more time to tag it, and everyone who tags it gets credit. Well, actually that's a bit of a lie. Unlimited tags for "boss" style quest enemies, but max 2 groups (or 9...
