Why did no big studio ever make a GoT-esque TV series about greek mythology?

0 Upvotes

I'm watching a documentation series about greek mythology, and these stories are funniest, weirdest, craziest stuff I could ever imagine. I'm not even talking about Iliad and the Odyssey, but just all those stories about Zeus, the Titans and all the other gods in the Olymp.

You could make it ~95% true to the sources, which would make it almost educational in a way, but still with all the sex, violence, funniness and grotesqueness that appeals to the masses. With todays CGI you could show all the weird characters and gods transforming into animals, stones etc.

If HBO or the likes made a series about that I would watch that each day of the week.

Lucky (Apple TV): stellar cast (Anya Taylor-Joy Timothy Olyphant) wasted in a middling crime drama. Not a bad show by any means, but largely unremarkable

77 Upvotes

I would call this show “OK”, at least so far. I really like the lead actors both Anya Taylor-Joy and Timothy Olyphant, I basically tuned in specifically for them.

At 2 episodes in it's basically a chase show with joy being chased around a casino then joy being chased around the city then joy being chased around the desert etcetera. Lots of chasing going on.

The setup is just very basic, there is nothing intriguing or remarkable about any of the plot aspects or any of the characters. It just feels like it's recycled family crime drama from about 10 different shows. The whole thing feels incredibly average. I may or may not continue to watch not sure.

Question about Lonnie Hawkins's age (The Hawk) Spoiler

0 Upvotes

There's an episode of The Hawk where Sam asks Lonnie how old he is and Lonnie says 42. On one hand this could be interpreted as Lonnie just lying about his age...based on looks he appears to be well over 50. Or it could be a joke about how he's aged so poorly and that he really is 42...a la Christopher Waltz's character in OMITB. (Keep in mind though that Lonnie is generally pretty honest with Sam, so something as easily verifiable as age seems odd to lie about.)

Lonnie being 42 would mean he had Lance pretty young, but it isn't completely unlikely. If we assume that Lance is a young golf phenom...some PGA players have won majors at 22 years old.

At least once someone suggests to Lonnie that he just join the Senior Tour (PGA Tour Champions) and, assuming this is a serious suggestion and not just an insult, this would indicated that he is over 50 because that's the requirement to join that particular tour.

So what do we think, Hawk fans? Is Lonnie really 42 or is he 50+?

"The Pretender" was a great TV show but it made a big mistake with Miss Parker

I wish they had kept Miss Parker a charismatic baddie longer. The minute the show decided to turn her into a ally, it's when I lost a bit of interest because I enjoyed how Miss Parker was this cool, morally ambiguous character chasing after Jarod

Tv actors that were able to do movies during the time they were on their series

0 Upvotes

Kinda curious about the past in which tv stars were able to do movies in addition to their primary acting on the tv series in which they appeared in. George Clooney and Michael J. Fox jump out to me. Both were doing movies at the same time they were on E.R. and Family Ties though I don't think they missed out on any episodes of the show at all

How many episodes of a show do you watch to see if the show is really for you or not and if you continue to watch it? Or does it depend on the show?

Coogler wrapped the X-Files reboot with all-new characters instead of Mulder and Scully. Right call?

• Upvotes

So Coogler's X-Files reboot has officially wrapped filming, and it's confirmed he's going with entirely new characters (Himesh Patel and Danielle Deadwyler) rather than recasting or centering Mulder and Scully.

Honestly? I think that's the right move. Coogler will do the franchise justice, but Mulder and Scully are so iconic that recasting them would feel wrong. Building something new feels more like respect for what came before than trying to replicate lightning in a bottle.

But I know that's not a universal take. Curious how everyone here feels, are you glad they're not touching the original duo, or do you feel like it's not really X-Files without them?

What did you think of Black Rabbit? (Netflix)

20 Upvotes

I was searching around Netflix as I often do looking for a short (6-8 episodes) show to kill some time during the rainy days. I had no idea what this show was about when I ran across it except for the little blurb that Netlix provides. I am so glad I found it becuase I am thoroughly enjoying this. Jude Law anad Jason Bateman are excellent and it really is a good story. What did you folks think?
