I don't know if it's the consensus but I can't watch Flash any more. It's really bad. I find myself rolling my eyes at the dialogue (especially anything involving Iris...) and twiddling my thumbs waiting for the predictable plot to unfold.
In the latest episode I just stopped some time in the first twenty minutes and switched to something else.

Still watching the Lethal Weapon series. Still enjoying it.
I've also finally began watching Supernatural. When I say that I watch it...I mostly watch an episode or two, then go do other things. Then my spouse watches half a season and I have to play catch-up to get to where she is. I'm not as invested in it as she is.
Anyone have any opinions on The Americans? I watched the first season way-back-when and did enjoy it, but just lost track of it because I'm not huge on watching television. Are the later seasons worthwhile? Are they worth buying?

I hate this season of Flash so far and it is all because of Iris.
I hate that character so, so much.Joe is literally the only reason to watch at this point. Even the return of Asshole!Harrison was underwhelming.

I'm hoping Dibny can make things a little more palatable. I'm enjoying it, but I'm not expecting more out of it than 'A meta shows up, there's some drama, the meta does stuff with powers, Team Flash does something to counter meta powers'. Dibny could add a nice comedic element if they keep his comic personality intact. -
I finally got around to watching American Werewolf In London today. My parents always told me it was a cheesy comedy, I was not ready for the gore involved, but after the surprise, it was an awesome monster movie.

The British Baking Show on Netflix got a new season. HUZZAH!

Mr. Robot proves, again, to be possibly the best goddamned thing on television.

It definitely has its own style, but I think it has been steadily declining save for isolated episodes that are really good (usually due to their surreal nature).
I think this should be the last season, too.

Of the DC shows... Flash and Arrow are disappointing this season, IMO. They're not bad, but they aren't really good, either? I mean, Arrow's OK, but I am not feeling Flash at all.
Supergirl, on the other hand, is knocking it out of the park. I usually feel really meh on 'girl power' stuff. Like, a lot of the time it feels like it's trying too hard and overly vilifies or puts men down to 'make a point,' but Supergirl has these female characters front and center who balance strength and emotion, while the male characters still get their stories and play their parts, the lesbian character's aren't tropey, one didn't die (LOOKING AT YOU BUFFY)...
Look, it's awesome.
But, uh...
