I watched the first episode of each season and found it to be more of a skunk than a horse.

I saw them all.  ;D  ;D  8)  :o  :)  ;)

that making a murder thing on Netflix, is a pile of shit.  I spit on it.  when they talked about how that guy tortured and killed a cat when he was younger, and he just blamed it on "hanging out with the wrong people" I knew I had seen enough.  fuck that guy.  fuck that show.  fuck Netflix.  fuck television.

and fuck, that guys beard, when he got out of prison, at the start of the show.

What?  The beard at the beginning was the best thing about the four episodes I was able to watch before I gave up on it.

It is a unique and interesting perspective that has made me rethink a pop culture touchstone.

So Aziz Ansari has to have the most annoying voice of any comedian since Gilbert Gotfried. So offputting.

Wow, never heard anyone complain about Aziz's voice, let alone compare it to Godfried. I feel like he's not everyone's cup of tea, but his first 2 stand up specials are 10 star comedy specials.

I find him horrifically non-funny. I do not understand his appeal. If he was a white guy, he'd work at McDonalds.

I disagree…but I do think part of his appeal is he talks and acts very white
some of his series is him getting pissed off when he is playing a role and they want him to do the indian accent

but he is funny, I can understand not everyone's cup of Darjeeling

But since he's an Indian guy with a Business degree from NYU, it's more likely he'd be owning a chain of Dunkin Donuts.

In one of his comedy specials he mentions something about "I'm stealing all your jobs! The last 3 characters I played were named Randy, Tom, and Eugene!"

I became a fan of his after seeing his stand up comedy stuff. His first 2 are so tongue-in-cheek and his stories about Kanye West and R. Kelly are hilarious. Found him even funnier on Parks & Rec and thought Master Of None was great. I can totally see how he can be grating for some people though. I feel like he's way more toned down on Master Of None than anything else he's in. That and Daredevil were my favorites from 2015.

He has the shrill, chirpy voice of an eight year old boy. Which makes it rather disconcerting when seemingly every other line in his comedy special is a variation of "sucking a dick".

I'd rather get one of these, if I were to buy one

I don't talk to many 8 year olds so I wouldn't know, but everyone has their opinion! I think he's a funny dude.

I am loving the X-Files! Such a treat.

when are you off on Phish tour?

This American Crime Story: The People Vs. OJ Simpson is getting almost universal praise from every media outlet whose seen any of it. . . which is surprising for a Ryan Murphy-helmed project in 2016. Anyone else tuning in tonite to give it a try?

Any thoughts on Lucifer?  I thought having one of the crime fighting duo, be the devil, was a fun spin on an ofttimes, stagnant genre. 

It supposedly is based on the Vertigo comic, but I am not getting the same vibe.  I havent read Lucifer in forever, so maybe I am wrong.
