3% - 2016 - 6/10

Unwashed masses teem and struggle “Inland,” while “Offshore” is an undreamed utopia.
Via “the Process” each coming-of-age bracket are put through mental, physical, psychological tests.
Only 3% pass, and they are allowed to journey to Offshore.
Elysium ... or Soylent Green?
Slow going 8-part parable from Brazil, in Portuguese with HC English subs.
Backstories unfold of unlikeable characters.
E04 was “Lord Of The Flies” excitement, but E05 ground to a standstill.
Near future is more dystopia than SciFi.
Budget and script-writing limitations apparent.
Doors left open for a second season.

I just finished watching the first season of The Fall (2013-2016). So far, so good.

I've been watching that cartoon Archer late at night. I think it's hilarious.

Just finished the third season, not uninteresting, but I am reluctant to comment further as it may detract from your viewing...that is I want to make a few comments, but they all involve spoilers so I’ll refrain...mostly, - something cuts across the page of these narratives generically – it starts to have a recognizable countenance

Great stuff. And if you're a 'Family Guy' aficionado, then the new 'Bordertown' is a must. Mexofornia, ha ha.

Dix Pour Cent
 
Dix Pour Cent - 2015
AKA - Call My Agent

http://i1225.photobucket.com/albums/...pscypmvykw.png

Brief mini-series about stressed film agents and demanding clients.
Ones liking may depend on tolerance for actors and affinity for French fare.
Story revolves around four agents trying to keep company afloat.
A gallery of French stars fill the guest roles..
Funny, exasperating, infuriating.
Viewers who expect resolution and explanation, beware.

I've been watching cooking shows :o

5 seasons of Kodoku no Gurume. I like the food and guy's face.

Masterchef Australia. Though I couldn't care less about all the mumble jumbo "You can do it!" or "This is myself on a plate", I like to see people looking stressed next to a stove. Plus this is the glossiest cake I've ever seen

I am currently watching the 70s series The Life and Times of Grizzly Adams:


It is quite idyllic and beautiful if you enjoy natural scenery or themes of living in "harmony with nature".

It can't get better than having a friend bear.

I used to watch it in the morning and it was really nice. I always thought it was bizarre that a hippie-ish bliss out was such a mainstream show. It's quite an oddity.

I just watched the first two episodes of season 3 of Twin Peaks.
I can't stop thinking about it.
I'm all out of squees!

I'm gonna OD on donuts now and rewatch them.
