Short series poll
Added 2024-09-24 01:05:03 +0000 UTCHey S&P Fam,
we are early but want to be organised ahead of time for what series will replace The Haunting of Hill House so here is our poll for our next short form series!
REMINDER - Our short series poll is for 1 season series (with west world being the exception)
based on community feedback and our own preference, Band of Brothers will be replaced by The Pacific as we are very immersed in that world right now and want to keep it going
Vote for which series you want to see replace Hill House!

2024-10-03 17:23:09 +0000 UTCPudgey, don't let Spartan watch Reacher. Knowing him, he will 100% develop a problematic man-crush.

2024-09-28 18:29:58 +0000 UTCBut why do you have to be rude about it?
Nikki Sylvester
2024-09-28 18:13:39 +0000 UTCI understand why ppl would pick Squid Games first. It is a truly great show, but I really hope y'all check out Bly Manor too at some point (why not spooky season 😝) cause all of Mike Flanagan's shows are amazing. 💖

2024-09-27 01:35:46 +0000 UTCJulien: I party agree. With a few exceptions, I don't think the show's shortcomings have much to do with departure from the lore. There are people who know the lore as well as anyone who find things to appreciate in the show--even some who outright love it. I've heard lots of criticisms of lore "changes" that aren't really changes at all, coming from people who don't know the lore anywhere near as well as they think they do (not putting you in that category). I think it all comes down to execution, and the weakness is pretty much entirely in the writing. Still, it's not all bad, even in season 1. And most people who aren't invested in hating the show are seeing considerable improvement in season 2. Just waiting on one more miserable mystery box to be resolved--although it seems increasingly likely the answer is going to be the worst one possible, at least we'll be able to move on from the pointlessly dragged-out question. As far as Spartan and Pudgey, I do think they'll be able to watch from an impartial perspective, and it would be an opportunity to learn more about the lore through both the show and community corrections. My inkling that they'll be able to enjoy it (and I'm trying to move on from judging people for enjoying things more than I do) comes partly from the way they embraced The Hobbit movies. Like, they thought it was equally as good as PJ's Lord of the Rings. Personally, I think the book departures in The Hobbit (the dialogue, the action, the comedy, the romance) are at least as bad as the weakest parts of Rings of Power, and often less Tolkienian.

RedDevil
2024-09-25 18:44:48 +0000 UTCYeah 5 seasons and 1 film, would be great to replace the long series, GOT, breaking bad, peaky blinders then that, some of the best tv shows in history!
LazyCouchG3mer
2024-09-25 18:43:20 +0000 UTCThe Last Kingdom doesn't fit into the short series category sadly
Morgan Payne
2024-09-25 17:20:26 +0000 UTCI wonder what people who don't know the lore feel about it. As a long time Tolkien fan, the butchery of the story is genuinely painful to witness. I watched half the first season and simply read summaries of the read. A completely travesty of my beloved Middle Earth. But I'm certain that even if I weren't beholden to this world, the JJ Abrams "mystery box" storytelling style would have irritated me to no end. It would seem the entirety of the first season consistent in making you wonder "who is this person? Is this who I think it is? What are these people doing? What does this thing?" I have no idea why they think this is an entertaining way to tell a story
Julien
2024-09-25 17:11:55 +0000 UTCHave they ever reacted to the Last Kingdom. if not, that should go on the list for future series

2024-09-25 09:07:20 +0000 UTCS1 of Westworld might be some of the best TV ever made imo, but i do agree it fell off quite a lot.
Steffen K
2024-09-25 06:57:25 +0000 UTCI personally liked S2 better than S1. And I didn't mind S3 but it defiantly fell off a bit. Haven't seen S4.

2024-09-25 03:47:55 +0000 UTCSquid Game, really! I didn't realize how many people loved it. I did kniw it was popular, but I haven't watched.
Jermaine Lee
2024-09-25 02:26:11 +0000 UTCMy only ask is don't leave Reacher off the list. In whatever future poll it might win, it's worth a watch regardless of when you get to it. Really feel like you both would enjoy the show.

2024-09-24 21:55:38 +0000 UTCnah that was season 3 imho, but can't get into that because of spoilers. Season 2 episode 8 was also incredible with some of the things it did. That said yes season 1 is a masterpiece, hard to follow that up.
SuddenImpulse
2024-09-24 21:25:27 +0000 UTCYou and me both, you and me both. Spartan likes adding new heavy hitters to the polls when mine have a real chance to win, he's doing it to spite me!! (I'm joking for anyone not familiar with the discord banter)

Olive_Sandy
2024-09-24 17:33:21 +0000 UTCseason 1 & 2 were both good. Personally i was fine with the rest of the series too, but it doesn't even come close to the first season.

2024-09-24 16:23:27 +0000 UTCWestworld is tough as it fell off so much after season 1
Alvin Tsao
2024-09-24 16:11:02 +0000 UTCIt's kind of a running theme! Lol Sticking something new on a poll that just dominates when it otherwise would have went to something that has been close but not won yet in previous polls. I hope Westworld will get it's day even just for season 1 alone.
FullMetal B
2024-09-24 16:07:48 +0000 UTCSquid Game! Watch in Korean with subtitles. Always best to hear the actors actual voice when they're acting. Sometimes sub actors do a terrible job 😆 Korean Shows/Movies are really good. Train to Busan would be a good reaction for Halloween 🤌😁😁

2024-09-24 09:11:23 +0000 UTCIt really not fair. Squid Games is huge. Westworld is never win these things. Called it ages ago as I've seen it fail over and over again. And honestly I think the addition of the controversial second season is contributing to killing its chances.

NZ Hayley
2024-09-24 07:46:30 +0000 UTCYeah i get the scheduling could be an issue with everything they have going on right now. For what ive seen it is pulling decent views on other channels, on theirs well we cant know for sure (tho at least I'll be willing to bet it would do better than peaky blinders lol). Maybe it would have been a good idea to have it replace one of the 2 small shows since its a known brand and its being released weekly which i have heard they prefered that instead of seasons being dropped all at once. But i guess there was no way of knowing if it would be any good, tho i just watched the first one and its looking pretty good, also Colin Farrell absolutely kills every single role he plays so im hopefull the series is gonna turn out great. It would be nice to hear the S&P perspective on the matter.

Farbod
2024-09-24 07:06:05 +0000 UTCAin't no way. That series is a meme and a mockery to Tolkiens work. It's just yet another example of the showrunners going against source material thinking they can do it better...just like Witcher and HotD.

K
2024-09-24 06:08:32 +0000 UTCWell, I don't know if their minds have changed now, but they said they had no plans on watching it back when Season 1 came out and seems like a fairly firm stance ** at the time**. Maybe thats changed, no clue. Theres some people I know (that are not ragetubers) that have been watching Season 2 that have said its only slightly improved, or that they liked it more starting out, but have been kinda down on it again as its progressed, so I am not sure what to think. Some of the lore changes in season 1, some of the acting (though some of it was excellent) and some of the writing, was rather frustrating/irritating for me. I think I'll see what people think once the season is done and then maybe give it another chance, because the episode quality was kind of all over the place (imho) in season 1 so I wanna make sure I know what I am getting into because I spend those hours. I looked on IMDB and the highest rated episode for the season so far is a 7.4 which, given the budget and everything else, doesn't inspire much confidence for me, but I also try not to judge things I haven't seen myself.
SuddenImpulse
2024-09-24 05:28:10 +0000 UTCWhy did they have to sneak Squid Game in the poll this time 😭. It was Westworld’s time!!!
TallTyrionLannister
2024-09-24 04:46:39 +0000 UTCYeah, season 2 is a huge improvement. Almost everyone but the rage-tubers can agree on that. Still has its fair share of issues, but I’m actually looking forward to each new episode. But aside from what I think, I just think S&P would enjoy it—especially by the time things get rolling in season 2. And the longer they go without watching, the more basic spoilers become unavoidable.
Kate
2024-09-24 04:27:54 +0000 UTC2nd season is so so good. Trust ....I agree about 1st seas. But they really do a great job in 2nd season
Mandala Meditation by Gabrielle
2024-09-24 04:13:05 +0000 UTCI don't speak for them so take what I say with grain of salt, but I'm not sure they have time to do it right now between main show slot, two limited series slots at 1 per week, and keeping their movie schedule going. It'll be awhile before another limited series slot opens up since its 1 per week. They do make room for now airing shows on occasion but it has to be a mix of their own personal interest+assumed demand and views being sufficient to warrant watching something while its airing as opposed to later on. At least if its the first season of something and not a continuation of their prior reactions.
SuddenImpulse
2024-09-24 04:05:12 +0000 UTCI haven't seen the second season, in fairness, but the writing was pretty awful in season 1.
