I watch Top Gear reruns on Netflix when my wife is delivering babies and I've gotten too drunk to play Wipeout. They're kind of assholes.
In some ways I see the appeal, and in others I enjoy watching people who can actually wrench on a car. People love watching assholes when they're not being assholes to them.
Yas. Seriously, amazon - Fuck Clarkson and the other monkeys. Just hire Top Gear's editors.
Personal question: We kinda enjoyed Transparent, even though a lot of the characters in it are narcissistic shits. How terrible is it from your perspective? I recognize that this is like asking my black friends about rap music, but I am the high fivin'est white guy on Hubski.
Well someone's got to make up for my complete lack of high fivin'ness. I hear rap music and all I hear is Ground Bass underneath Concerto Grosso at the moment. I mean, I just think it's a middling show. It's not really about a trans woman transitioning in her 70s, it's actually about her 3 children who can't keep their own lives together - Specifically the youngest one who is probably the only character who's not completely self-absorbed (just mostly self-absorbed). Maura's a side character in her own "show", probably because showing trans people for what they are - Boring, and stumbling through life just like you - isn't actually exciting. It reinforces some dumb stereotypes, and Maura's played by a dude (Jeff Tambour's okay in the role), but could be worse - Could be this steaming pile of shitty stereotypes being played by a Eddie Redmayne:
You asked me if I'm gonna die soon with the Queen Discography and whatnot. But you ain't got NO room to talk when I've been on Hubski for almost two years now and you're still playing Wipeout. Also my favorite "I don't give a shit just play Netflix" show is Prison School. If Judge Judy were on there, it'd be that, however. My ultimate guilty pleasure.
Fair enough, Smash has basically been the same game with more characters since 1999. But you know they're working on a spiritual sequel, right? Formula Fusion. It looks slow but it's also only a year into development, so I'mma give it the benefit of the doubt.
Did not know that. DOPE.
