CRON 10/24/20 11:41:06 AM #22:	Balrog0 posted... Oh man for real? Did you like the original? I just wanna know so I know how much to manage expectations I loved the original and rewatch it on a frequent basis. The new series lacks a lot of the improvisation and ad-libbing, and feels like it was written by fans. On a pettier note it's depressing to look at, as most of the cast is older and out of shape, especially Jones. If you want to watch a show with similar energy, try the first 7 seasons of Trailer Park Boys on Netflix. It's probably one of the biggest examples of looks being deceiving in TV. --- [obligatory signature] <cite>CRON posted [p:946240420] in to the sur...

IdiotMachine 10/24/20 11:44:04 AM #23:	Quibi sounded like a good idea for a very niche set of people: People who take public transit and have nothing else to do while waiting for the train or their next stop in the train. People on line waiting for something and have nothing else to do.
