I'm going to go with the X-Files. Although I was going to say The Sopranos because when it first came out it was like no one had ever made good TV before and they were showing everyone else how to do it. But I have rewatched X-Files way more than the sopranos (I have a few times, but the last couple of times I kind of skipped over the therapy sessions to get to the rest of the show). The seasons were long enough that they could keep a main story going, and then allow the characters to develop more fully in these little side quests with other interesting characters. The chemistry between Duchovny and Anderson was perfect, the writing was extremely compelling, and they did a really wonderful job with story arcs. Also, it's mostly filmed in Vancouver in the 90s and I have fond memories of that town in that time. Continuum is another favourite for that same reason. But yeah, the X-Files. Currently at season 7 in another rewatch and still loving it.
I'm slowly getting ready for a wedding I don't want to go to and having a little break and you gave me a good out-loud guffaw, buddy. Thanks for the larf
I've been getting emails with the subject line, "Your expertise is requested," from LinkedIn for several years now. They definitely know how to pander to their audience!
You don't want to sound like music that has one sound or line of melody being played by multiple instruments at the same time?
Yeah, it's more of a "data exists, kind of."
I feel like maybe I'm being a bit thick here, but there's no way for people to go to... news sites?
Awesome. Can't wait! I'm a bit "showed out" after jazz fest this year so it's just this one and Nick Cave until the end of the year and I think it's a great way to wrap it up until spring. Also, holy flirking shnit did shows ever get fucking expensive!
Oh! Huh. Okay, good to know. Thanks for the tip!
I'm going to see them for the first time in just a few weeks. Expecting to have my face melted off and very much looking forward to it.
I had this album on vinyl, some kind of special edition blue and orange version. It sounded absolutely awful. I was able to sell it for about $80 tho so I guess it's something that people want.
Oh, this is such a shit thread to have this conversation, but nevertheless...
I played Firewatch for a while a couple of years ago and LOVED it. Didn't finish, not sure what happened but I just never got back to it. I think I've forgotten enough of it now that I can go back and start again and have a fresh experience. I've recommended this game to a few people and everyone has loved it. Some excellent twists and turns and fun little bits of mystery. Great writing!
They will revisit once he has actually been found guilty. If they do it now, it sets a dangerous precedent.
