    I did the same thing with NCIS. I'm now on season 5 with the soul-crushing realisation that I'm not half done yet. But it's sooo gooooood.

    How I'm feeling about Supernatural right now.

    Avurekhos says, "Dylara's a PvP menace in my eyes, totes rekting face."

    The eye of Dylara materialises in your hands and flings itself around your neck, tightening incomprehensibly until it is irremovable.
    Perfectly clean, this eyeball has been wrenched from the socket of Dylara. It has been animated by some unusual force, constantly looking around itself as if in shock or fear. It is bathed in a light covering of white flames that roll endlessly over its surface. A single chain of empyreal metal pierces either side of the eye, allowing it to be worn around the neck.


  • A friend talked me into watching Geek and Sundry's Critical Role. I enjoy tabletop rpgs, but I thought that watching (or listening to) other people play would be dull.

    I finally gave it a try while on my trip because I was bored at the hotel and I am now roughly thirty hours in and totally hooked. It prooooooobably helps that these are all professional voice actors who are used to bringing stories to life with their voices, and they're mostly pretty good at keeping things moving rather than getting bogged down in the dice rolls. Also the dice have been demonstrating a distinct flair for the dramatic.

    That also was a bit of a turn off, but it's so worth it! (I don't usually listen to them all at once though. There's decent mid-session break points.)

    What
    This has been the barrier to entry for me, but I'm inclined to believe Sylandra's hype. Someday I'll click that link I have bookmarked. If you're looking for more easily digestible chunks of D&D play, I like to recommend the Adventure Zone podcast. The players aren't voice actors or particularly adept at D&D, but I find their brand of humor endlessly entertaining. It starts slow, but the story and production values pick up pretty quickly.

  • I have been meaning to watch this for ages and @Allyrianne's post tipped me over the edge - it is brilliant.
  • LuceLuce Fox Populi
    There's also a Let's Play the 13th Age game going by the Six Feats Under group that is highly entertaining, especially if you listen to the show notes after each episode.
  • I've finally started binge watching Gotham and it is great.

    If you can handle the kiwi accents, we recently watched The Almighty Johnsons and found it grew on us to the point we binge watched all 3 seasons and were disappointed to learn it had been axed. They wrapped it up neatly at least (if in a way that felt like they had always planned for a different result) but if you like light entertainment and dry humour and the idea of norse gods in mortal bodies, go have a look.

    Just how much cheese should I expect?

    Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon? Turns out it is not as stupid as it sounds. I could do without quite so many shiny bouncy boobs, but it scratches the life-in-an-RPG itch that SAO and Magi failed to. I'm kind of a sucker for genuine nice guy protagonists too.

  • The animation quality on that one is pretty good, yes.

    It's not that bad.

    And Alfred is a bad ass.

  • OITNB tho... (and after these past weeks - too much to process).
  • I've been watching TNG and TOS back and forth. No regrets, live long and prosper and engage.

    Had fun at Finding Dory. I think the pacing and characterization was a little better than in Finding Nemo, even if it was largely the same movie. Except what the actual flock was with their treatment of Gerald the sea lion? It seemed really meanspirited for Pixar and totally out of sync with the point of the film. :/

    I kinda like Stranger Things so far (3 eps in), but I have a sinking feeling it's going to go off the rails before the end.

  • The Lost Tomb. It's this Chinese adventure/drama about tomb robbers/archaeologists, and it's amazing. It's on prime and viki for free.

  • The Great British Baking Show. I am pretty sure that @Daraius is Paul, and @Sylandra is Mary.

    I've been on the fence about watching some of that, but with that context supplied I guess I have to give it a try. :D

    This is a good recommendation. Very cute show and, so far at least, not a huge amount of the fluff you find in most American reality competitions. I'll miss Martha if she gets kicked off early.

    Sooo was the comparison accurate, @Daraius?

    Also I've been watching clips of Sifl and Olly because of @Phoebus. And Chester is the best. Look at these acting chops:
