I know that X-Men: Age of Apocalypse has really horrible reviews and Oscar Isaac spends most of the film being all blue and CGI but...

Yeah...if they had Poe shirtless or wearing something tighter for a scene in Episode 8, I totally wouldn't object...

And ABC canceled like everything...almost everything...

I always meant to watch Galavant, never got around to it...

I felt like The Muppets was finally hitting its stride...

I've been kind of praying for Castle to end for a year or two because I never had the courage to quit on my own...

but Agent Carter...

I know people were saying stuff and she was cast in that new series but I wasn't too worried until Captain America: Civil War confirmed fan theory/spoiled season two cliffhanger and even then, I hoped I was wrong...

But they canceled it and Marvel's Most Wanted and now whenever Agents of SHIELD is on hiatus, I'll have...NOTHING.

assholes

I highly recommend you try Galavant - also, it doesn't have a cliff hanger and ends in a good place. And it's great!

Not the Muppets! It was fun! And nobody got killed, I could watch it safely.

Well, half the reviews are horrible and half of them are good when I last looked so I choose to focus on the good ones and have hope! I've enjoyed a lot of cricially panned movies anyway and hated critically loved ones so hey, who knows? (also, whoever played Apocolypse would have been covered in blue paint - we should all be glad he doesn't look as much like a frog as the one in the original cartoon did!)

It will be my first time seeing Osacr Isaac in anything, should be interesting!

I am so pissed about Agent Carter, Castle, Muppets, and Galavant. :( :( :(

I am in the exact same boat: I've been kind of praying for Castle to end for a year or two because I never had the courage to quit on my own...

but Agent Carter...


I've been trying to break up with Castle for a while. I'm glad it's been done for me.

Agent Carter, though, I'm going to miss her.

Oh no, I love Agent Carter! How vexing.

I'm so sad about Agent Carter, even though I'd mostly been expecting it. :( I enjoy that show a good deal more than I do AoS, tbh! I had mixed feelings about Most Wanted, because while I adore Bobbi so much I'm pretty indifferent to Hunter and find him vaguely annoying. But I definitely feel robbed now as Bobbi was my biggest reason to keep tuning in to AoS every week and now she's gone without anything to show for it.

What fan theory did Civil War prove?

I might have watched the video with shirtless Oscar in it more than a few times, lol! I'm still looking forward to the movie.

Galavant is totally worth watching, it was a joy, and I think they were banking on getting cancelled so it ends on a high note.

Oh my.... He could definitely go shirtless in 8 and that'd be a bit of all right! O_O

Very, very sad about losing Agent Carter.

I even stopped my Twitter-avoidance so I could tweet my heart out about it, but that didn't help. (Heck, I can say this now that we're out of the sample -- we were a Nielsen family at the time, and that still didn't save my show!)

Yeah, I kind of enjoyed the Fantastic 4 film last August.

I know anyone playing Apocalypse would have to be in blue paint but...how much of Oscar Isaac will be visible, you know?

Woah, a virgin...I almost want to recommend something before that...I've liked Isaac for quite a while because at first, I would get him confused with David Krumholtz who I've had a major crush on since Addams Family Values. I think my first Isaac film was Robin Hood but he was such an asshole that I don't remember thinking he was cute until Sucker Punch...
So Apocalypse can't be much worse than that.

Yeah, I'm excited about my Monday possibilities. I had been recording Blindspot but we broke up for some reason...

Now I've been recording Full Frontal with Samantha Bee so it might be fun to watch that live.

I'm torn about the Netflix idea. Obviously, I want more with the characters but I'm worried about Netflix changing the series to better fit their other Marvel series.
Also, I only get to watch Netflix if I convince my nephews they want to watch it, too.

Because if they don't do anything else with Bobbi, then her character was a complete waste and I LOVE Bobbi. I have the whole four part series with her and Hawkeye where they meet in Issue 1 and end up married in Issue 4.

Because they messed up Bobbi's character so much, they made Clint into Ultimates Clint which means he and Bobbi were never an item. Then, they gave Clint's 616 plotline to Hunter and he became the ex-husband that she's on again, off again with.

She's started being really awesome and they take her away for this spin-off series...

and then, THEY DON'T DO THE SPINOFF SERIES!!!

Seriously, look at the Sharon Carter/Agent 13 Funko for Civil War and tell me that's not supposed to be Bobbi...

I don't remember Sharon ever even using batons!

So, the only good that could come out of this is that Bobbi gets upgraded to the movies where she always should have been...unless they're making that actress into Captain Marvel...but last I heard they wanted a solid B+, A- list actress for it.

UGHHH

Remember the file with M. Carter? Everyone assumed it was Margaret but why would they tell us about Peggy's brother Michael if he wasn't important in a multi-episode way?
Yeah, it was her brother. He wasn't dead after all and he had at least one child.

Whenever possible, I watch all the commercials on my DVR watching because I was told that DVR watching only counts if you don't skip anything.

Full Frontal is made of awesome. I wish it was on seven days a week.

Noooooooo, they can't cast her as Carol, she needs to be Bobbi!! Bobbi needs to be in something!!! It really sucks that she was so thoroughly written off AoS only for her spin-off to not get picked up, I hope they'll realize how popular she is and try to work her back in to the MCU somehow.

Yeah, I would much have rather had Clint be her on-again, off-again because like I said, I just don't like Hunter.

I don't remember Sharon ever using batons in the comics, but I'm far from an expert. It seems weird to make her Funko have them because it's such a signature Bobbi weapon, though I don't mind her using them in the movies because I think she'd be skilled with lots of weapons. But yes, weird choice for the Funko.

Oh, yeah, I'd forgotten about that file, but that was my initial thought too, that it actually referred to Peggy's brother. Wish we could have seen where they were going to go with that.

I think despite the reviews X-Men Apocalypse is going to be good. I'm still excited for it!

Man, I'm still bummed and angry about Agent Carter. :(

Exactly!

Before it started, I just ASSUMED it would be! Since Conan and the Daily Show and everything else is 4-5 times a week...

I know John Oliver is only one day a week but I only get to watch him 2-4 times a year depending on those free HBO weekends.

I'd suggest that they use season four's story in a comic but they're still insisting on Peggy being blonde in the comics and it just...feels wrong like she's Dottie.

Oh, I'm still totally excited, I'm just trying to have lowered expectations.

I've watched a lot of John Oliver's show on Youtube.

From what I'd heard about what was supposedly happening behind the scenes with Castle etc I'm kind of glad it got cancelled but at the same time... BOO

I'm GUTTED about Agent Carter though. HEARTBROKEN. I love her!

But the ending of Castle...so good, made up for all the previous shit.

And everyone's like, She HAS a new show!

Don't give me that. I don't want a new show. I want Agent Carter. That's like giving me cake when I really wanted ice cream. Sure, the cake tastes good but dammit, I WANTED ICE CREAM!

Have you seen Restless? It's what made me want a Peggy Carter tv show/movie/anything so very badly.
