Anyone watching this cable series adaptation of the comic, which started up on AMC recently?


First full episode available on YouTube:

"45 minutes of pooping Tribbles being juggled by a drunken Horta would be better than Season 1 of TNG." - SirAndrewD

"you don't look at the mantelpiece when you're poking the fire" - Bawb

"Can't 'un' until you 'pre', son." - Gus

Well that's something.

Somebody mentioned the AMC series has a little Twin Peaks feel to it.

Saw episode 1 and enjoyed it.
Any time is a good time for pie.

It definitely has an off-beat, surreal vibe to it.

Yes. Goddamn awesome.
Though definitely not for everyone.

Are the rest of the episodes going to be available free (legally that is)?

I think AMC keeps episodes available on its website for a limited time.

I'm going to keep watching. Though Arseface is tough to see on screen.

I didn't think so, but who knows.. maybe they'll put up another one or two.

Obviously AMC wants people to sub & pay them.  Which is understandable.  But coughing up what has become a large monthly bill, in order to watch a very few select shows, is almost highway robbery these days.  I'm guessing AMC, and most other channels, don't have their own individual digital subs available due to the cable tv racket?


Anyway.. definitely one of the few series I'd watch.

Damn, it seems to be region-locked. :(

Been watching the second season. 

The recent episode, with the "Uptown Girl" song running in the background, got a laugh out of me. 

The goofy weirdness keeps bringing me back.  :))

I'm PVRing them... just need to find to watch and catch up.

Glad to hear it's still fun. O0
