Once every couple of years we get a piece of media that makes me whisper 'this is kino, this is art' repeatedly... This is it. What a fucking masterpiece.

May as well say Netflix. I won't even bother these days.
HBO is still knocking it out of the park and you're just a nihilists.
Like what gay? Hard mode no Succession or Chernobyl

Raised by Wolves

nah
>May as well say Netflix.
wrong. hbo is the only streaming service still making quality content
The only quality they still make is Rightious gemstones. They make nothing worth paying for.
Succession is really good
That ass is really good
AppleTV+ mogs all other streaming services.
>Severance
>mosquito coast
>servant
>defending jacob
>black bird
Yeah appletv+ is pretty great, they keep acquiring first-look deals with prominent creatives in the television and film industry. The future looks bright for them.
Yeah Apple and HBO are leagues above all others. A show that sounds promising doesn't get a look in from me if I see it's on Netflix. Disney+ has nothing going for it besides Andor, and Amazon has nothing whatsoever, although they do have a good sized library.
If a show is on Apple and it sounds good it'll be worth a watch, and if a show is on HBO to me it's worth a look even if I don't like the sound of the premise.
Severance is only decent thing from Apple when HBO has much more good quality stuff.
what's everybody here gonna be in the apocalypse? I'm gonna lead a merry band of musicians and we'll bring joy and happiness to each town we visit
Cannabal rapper
Me too, I would definitely go around rapping women
I'm going to become The Gamesman, I'll entertain people with my massive collection of board games that I carry around in a horse-drawn wagon.
probably I will die first
I’m gonna lead a merry band of rapists and we'll bring herpes and erections to every town we visit
Once the shit hits the fan, I'm going to be the next Genghis Khan (I'm going to impregnate a LOT of women and kill A LOT of people) but I'm also gonna institute order and make the post office run better than it ever did.
corrupt priest in some new thrifter religion.
monkey baron
It won't change how I view things, I'll keep doing what I already do now.
I will join your merry band.
jerk off for a month or two, then kms
putting babies into my peppy daughterwife and keeping her sexually satisfied is probably going to take up most of my time. I guess I could paint haikus on the sides of abandoned buildings or something.
I'll be the guy who at first helps the protagonist and his crew before I reveal myself to be a nutter they're forced to kill in self-defence..
yeah I was actually surprised with how decent it was. Definitely the best series about the post apocalypse.
meme flu story? how original
the flu thing is really just the background of the show
I loved it.
The flu is just a MacGuffin to get the story started.
I've read the book first, if you did the same you wouldn't be calling this kino.
It's not bad but it shits on the source material for no good reason.
Is one of the few redeeming scenes for me.
>Buh da buk was beddar!!!!
Shut the fuck up.
I'm still right, have you even read it?
No but media can mean different things to different people and to compare a TV show to a book is oranges and apples. No adaptation can ever be completely faithful to it's origin because the medium in which you tell a story is intrinsic to itself. You were always going to be disappointed by it because it could never be the same story as the book.
I know what you mean but whole story lines from the TV show don't exist in the book at all and the changes make absolutely no sense to me in other regards. Still not a bad show as I said (I kept it on my HDD because of the Blade Runner chick) but pretty average overall.
Its better than the book. The book doesn't even have the kino Jeevan & Kirsten storyline.
Stop being retarded, they are different things.
Show is way better, keeping Kirsten and Jeevan together was a great choice and Miranda's character is given a better story than being a boring author insert
The prophet character sounded better in the books. Was the Irish guy gay in the books too?
From memory, no. In the book he's just Clark's friend and is a British punk-rocker who shaves half his head and opens up the museum as kind of a warm bookshop.
The show makes him a bit darker, and implies that he's trying to hold on to the past with his museum and control the settlement, which reflects him wanting to hold onto his relationship with Arthur (being left behind while his unrequited lover succeeds).
In the book he's more a fun uncle, in the show he's more Claudius.
Arthur's friend*
>Blonde white girl surrounded by dark skin minority possible love interests the entire movie
DROPPED. I don’t watch propaganda.
>Once every couple of years we get a piece of media that makes me whisper 'this is kino, this is art' repeatedly... This is it. What a fucking masterpiece.
This is how people talk here. Good job HBO
yeah, it's kino.
This part was x10 kino than the future timeline
episode 7 is one of the best television episodes of all time
>I almost made you Lonagan
for me it's Joel and Ellie
I unironically wish I could hole up in a penthouse apartment with a dozen shopping carts full of snacks and watch planes fall out of the sky
Sounds kino but you better hope to fuck that nobody lights a fire under you.
sadly not much happening lately, /skg/ is dead too for the moment
I loved little Kirsten and Jeevan episodes, easily the best part of this show
it's a shame this didnt get more attention, its insanely good
hbo is terrible now
its good but the traveling circus storylines arnt anywhere near as captivating as the flashbacks and airport stories
Couldn't even finish it because the traveling circus shit was so god damn boring. There were some kino flashbacks but the entertainment troupe crap was all so fucking awful. Eventually I decided it wasn't worth sifting through the bad trying to get to the good.
This was the most comfy kino of the year. I am surprised it triggered tvcels so hard.
tvcels are completely void of hope and emotion so I'm not surprised at all.
Kino soundtrack as well

Let me guess, ugly bitch who swears every 15 seconds? And we're supposed to like her? And she's a starved sorority looking bimbo and we're supposed to believe she's a tough leader everyone listens to and can take on random hulking male goons with her bare hands? And she's either a lesbian or has a black male love interest.
And everyone died because anti-vaxxers! If only everyone had injected themself with big pharma nothing bad would ever happen!
White male characters are all pathetic or evil and get murdered or punched in the face within five minutes of appearing on the scene?
Christianity bad! Blame muh' global warming for no reason!
How did I do?
You sound mentally ill

>How did I do?
I think it's based on a book so these plot things aren't inevitable. I'm sure they brownwashed a bunch of characters, as they must.
>the seething replies you're getting.
Probably pretty close. Basically all tv shows are pozzed shit now and the shills here get angry and defensive if you refuse to consume it. I bet most of the people shilling this are tourists redditors
Based on the replies I assume you're spot on
samef*g

Hope you enjoy the .50 cents.in your account now shill
>she's a tough leader everyone listens to and can take on random hulking male goons with her bare hands? And she's either a lesbian or has a black male love interest.
she would probably be second in the trope hierarchy. she does take down hard core survivalist militia members with throwing knifes which is fucking retarded. lesbian check and fucking brown guy check.
>And everyone died because anti-vaxxers! If only everyone had injected themself with big pharma nothing bad would ever happen!
no, most people die in the span of a few days. no anti-vaxxer anything.
>White male characters are all pathetic or evil and get murdered or punched in the face within five minutes of appearing on the scene?
white male character tries to join the troupe but is really pathetic and laughed at but they let him join anyway. evil militia survivalists are all white, so is the guy that breaks into the apartment. really, really pathetic if i'm being honest.
>Christianity bad! Blame muh' global warming for no reason!
nothing about global warming
How can this show be any good at all? What is wrong with you shills? This sounds like the same dumb pozzed bullshit as every other show. So tiresome with the same tropes everywhere. Stronk female, blacks are saviors. White male bad.. fuck shows with this garbage
is it about a giant mackenzie?
The only thing that didn't work for me is that the prophet got a happy ending despite using children as suicide bombers.
The last episode of Severance was the last thing that made me whisper "kino" non-stop.
Based, the way the visual language of the show changes in that final episode is astounding. What a good show.
Will pirate and judge later
this was a good show. not enough people talked about it.
I thought that was Blunt in the thumbnail.
Leftovers showrunner+crew made it. That's why it had the same excellent melancholy feel
They should make based super emotional end of the world shows forever
Wrong, Damon Lindelof and Tom Perrotta showman The Leftovers, the only connection between The Leftovers and Station Eleven is Patrick Somerville who only wrote and produced Leftovers.
Showran*
More like melodramatic feel. Both had the same problem of being too saccharine

i watched the entire show and i don't know what you're talking about
The whole thing is a depiction of the entire world simultaneously undergoing a protracted existential crisis and jumping from cope to cope before finally settling on optimistic nihilism, kind of similar to the developed countries after the world wars.
I wasn't a fan of the show but this describes my reaction to the last few years
Woah, almost as if its actually about real life.
It does at first, that's part of the jumping from cope to cope.
You'd think a literal rapture happening would only increase peoples belief in god though
All of that was kino, incel
book was better
>Female ("body with vagina") main character
Yeah, we have seen this disaster already. No thanks, moron.
Is there any other comfy kino like this and the leftovers
show for women and gays
better than yellowjackets
Very good show, probably only legitimately good piece of tv Ive seen in the last few years, glad schizos are missing out on it
There's a certain viewer who fellates shows like this and Leftovers and movies like Annihilation. You know, dumb chick shit.
The best parts of Station was the little girl and the two brothers bonding through the aftermath of civilizational collapse. Much of the rest of this show is so retarded. The whole plot with the kid who grows up to be a cult leader of children is asinine.
>dumb chick shit.
Define this please.
Dumb chick shit within the context of what I listed are movies that are superficially "deep" and people praise them for their themes and performances, but scratch the surface and you see a lot of half-assed nonsense underneath:
>boring non-characters who make choices nobody would make in reality
>characters who do terrible things, are never held accountable, and now we're supposed to like them
>wooden acting performances
>awful, awful dialogue
>some kind of retarded dream sequence so we can be so quirky(!)
>contrived tension, contrived drama, contrived musical scenes
>some kind of self-referential hollywood bullshit where someone's an actor, writer, or in the business
Dumb chick shit
eh it's good but, it peaked with the kino airport episode. the rest is fresh but ultimately forgettable
>bait people with grand sci fi saga
>it's just pretentious white woman shit, zero sci fi elements
Uh, excuse me anon, there is no before. Sorry.
Pregnancy episode was terrible. Rest was great.
nah that episode was beautiful
Are you a woman
Agreed.
>Jeevan starting to take on the qualities of his siblings, the limp from his brother and the medical training from his sister.

Gay.
>that shot of the baby head coming out of some gross morons vagina
god that was fucking disgusting
Yes, you are right.
The book sounded a lot better than the show. I liked the show but the ending was absolute shite. The prophet guy blew up their friend with children strapped with landmines and nobody seems to care.
I found your other post. You really have shit taste.
>typical meme op you see on contemporary /misc/
>durr hurr same fag breaking BAD
>two fucking mines explode in a basement right in front of the blonde
>next episode she's already outside and barely scratched and this is never acknowledged

The mines part was probably the stupidest thing that happened in it
