Not so seamless after all.

I think the reality of the situation is that if you “cut the cord,” but still watch as much tv as before, by the time you add up the costs of internet service w/out a tv package, netflix, hulu, hbo go, etc., it’s basically a wash. I’ve seen many, many articles that have done the math, and it’s just not worth it to cut… Read more

I am typing this from a wireless keyboard while sat on my couch looking at a big ol’ TV which is only used for watching ‘live’ broadcast telly when there’s a new episode of Doctor Who on. Otherwise, everything comes through the internet pipe. Downloads or premium streaming = no commercials. I despise ad breaks yet I…

I pay for cable because it makes my internet bill cheaper. Read more

This show already lost me. I find the lead actor unremarkable and after three episodes find no reason to care about him. Then there is the silliness. I am done.

The only thing still annoying me with this show is why doesn’t he work on making the NZT antidote instead of relying on a scumbag politician. And why does he have to take shit from the FBI again? I don’t remember. They probably should spend more time in the flashbacks to remind us of such details instead of doing… Read more

We haven’t got this one yet in Britland. Read more

A very clever and appropriate tech idea to a serious need. I can see this working in African countries with saline ground water and frequent rainfalls too.

Jared Leto looks great in this.

Wow, first USA with Mr Robot’s return and that new Josh Holloway show, then this...I feel like genre TV is the Renaissance for TV.

This former karate student says I AM SO EXCITE. More martial arts on TV is always a good thing.

The show doesn’t even hint at who the malevolent intruders might be. For now. Read more

It sounds intriguing, but reading the description, I was also thinking, “This could very easily go off the rails.” When you premise the show on some central mysteries, it’s easy to ruin the show when you start providing answers that are dumb. Hell, you can ruin things if you provide answers that are quite good, as… Read more

Josh Holloway really killed it as Sawyer on Lost and deserves way more success than he’s been finding since then; I really hope this does well for him.

Automated trains seem terrifying? Not to me.

I read these articles and get depressed. The article says money is the biggest issue, and that’s right. But it is a little underplayed. Here in Boston it is going to take an estimated $30 billion to “modernize” the T. That’s over 95% of the state’s budget for one year. Other cities with older infrastructure like New… Read more

That’s pretty cool. I’m a fan of Festo’s brand of beautiful aerial robots. The inevitable robot apocalypse is going to be gorgeous with the Germans and the Japanese continuing to make strides.

hah, close but no cigar. I think you are looking for: “うるせー、俺のお金取って。”

How much more will they milk that 10 seconds scene Bradley Cooper shot for this show? Read more
