Man, Under the Dome is horrible. I liked the first season (but it was still pretty poor writing, has been all series long) but the second season was just terrible. I have no interest for the third this summer.

I have some hopes for 11/22/63 being adapted into a TV Series... but that's going to be a hulu exclusive series, so fuck that. Also, I have my doubts for James Franco as.... shit, I only remember the character's fake name. George. :/ I totally forgot his real name...
Also, why a Tv Series? I mean, this is going to have the same problem as Under the Dome, the concept just doesn't make sense for a TV Series. There's only enough stuff for a movie, or maybe a mini-series(which UtD was supposed to be), not a Tv Series. With a TV Series, you've got to start changing and adding stuff. With Under the Dome, they decided to ignore the dark, twisted stuff and the political stuff, and went full sci-fi and government conspiracy. I have a sinking doubt that that's what will happen with 11/22/63. They'll ignore the period-drama stuff and the love story in favor of a story about time-travel and the universe unraveling.

I have no interest for the third this summer. I actually had some hope for Season Two since Stephen King wrote the premiere, but that ended up being one of the worst episodes. ._. Also, while the actors who play Barbie, Julia, and Big Jim are fairly good, everyone else is just fucking awful. Especially the kids/teenagers, which sucks, since Nora and Scarecrow Joe(he doesn't have that nickname in the show ) were some of my favorite characters in the book. They also changed who Phil a.k.a Cook was in the TV Series, and cut out the whole entire plot with Big Jim and the mayor running a drug operation selling meth to "save" Chester's Mill. They even have Dean Norris from Breaking Bad as Big Jim! It would have been perfect!! The show really does suck... Still, I might watch Season 3. I mean, you can't say the show's not entertaining. Pretty much the same reason I watch The Blacklist. Even though it's not very good, at least it's entertaining. Under the Dome is almost hilarious with it's ridiculousness. If you want to see the concept done some justice, read the book. It's a little bloated, but it's very good.

Dean, why!?!

A lot of the people currently cast for the Outcast TV Series(By the way, everyone should go read the comics. Serious, at least buy the first TPB to see if you'll want to read it because it fucking phenomenal. Link) aren't actually attacked to any characters from the series. As of now, the actors actually attached to characters are: Gabriel Bateman as Joshua Austin Zach Shirey as Young Kyle Barnes Pete Burris as Ogden(I actually don't know who Ogden is. Either an original character, or one who has yet to appear in the comic. At a guess, he could be Sherry's father?) Lacy Camp as Betsy Austin Jill Jane Clements as Florence Hall(again, no clue who this is. Possibly the woman who works at the church) Patrick Fugit as Kyle Barnes Chandler Head as Amber Barnes(Chandler is a unisex name?) Jackie Prucha as Regina(not a clue who this is. Could be Mildred, or the TV equivalent of that character) Kate Lyn Sheil as Allison Barnes So, since I've got nothing better to do, I figured I might as well guess purely based on appearance what other actors will play which characters: Camden Flowers as Holly Holt Julia Crockett as Megan Holt Philip Glenister as Reverend Martin Anderson Kip Pardue as Mark Holt Wrenn Schmidt as Sherry/the redhead girl on the cover of Issue 9: What Lurks Within, who I just assumed is Sherry

Weird to see that Sidney and Sarah Barnes(Kyle's mother) haven't been cast yet... I mean, Kyle mom isn't too important of a character, but she shows up pretty early in flashbacks. And Sidney is pretty much the most important character next to Kyle and Anderson. Also, I'm still not sure what Anderson's first name is. I think it's Martin, but I'm pretty sure no one in the series has said it yet, so I don't know why I think that. And... you don't call a Reverend, "Father", do you? Not in a Baptist Church? Anderson is Baptist(Not Westboro Baptist, which are those bigoted assholes, just... normal Baptist, I guess?), yet Brian called him "Father" in the most recent Outcast.... It bothered me, for some reason. Same as how it's Father Gabriel in TWD, and he's called a priest. I knew that Episcopal Churches had priests, but I was fairly certain they weren't called Father. Yes, this kind of stuff bothers me. Too much CinemaSins, probably.

So, looks like Halt and Catch Fire Season Two will be about online gaming... Which makes sense. I mean, there wouldn't have been much to do with it if they were just building The Giant 2.0. They built their computer, it worked, it was successful... Now it's time to move onto the next big thing. I'm interested how Gordon and Joe will fit into this. Also, it seems like Bosworth won't be in Season Two, at least not to start with.

I decided to check out Hulu. I found Community. Watched the first three episodes.
Really entertaining show, it's made me laugh alot.
But... Episode 3 was different.
Episode 3 was incredible, mostly due to Abed and his film. That shit was fucking depressing. Dear god, that was a beautiful scene.
Gonna keep watching because so far, this is a good show.

I FUCKING LOVE COMMUNITY! Season 3 is fantastic! So many great episodes, my favorite being the "documentary" and the one where someone has to get the pizza, you'll understand eventually. Season 4 sucked because they got rid of the showrunner Dan Harmon, who made Rick and Morty, he came back for season 5 and somehow got Mike from Breaking Bad. Season 6 is still currently going on Yahoo with Keith David, and Lydia from Breaking Bad!

AMC has three shows over Walking Dead. Jesus. Nice to see 3 little snippets of footage of Fear The Walking Dead and absolutely nothing new of The Walking Dead. Other than that, eh... the new shows don't really interest me, and Halt & Catch Fire looks good but i've got other shows i'm watching so I might watch it later after i finished the other shows.
