I feel like the only really good Bethesda game besides Skyrim that I've played is Dishonored, and coincidentally that's the one developer/studio that Bethesda decided to close down

its going to be like ROP, sloppy series, poorly written or sourced material? or trying to copy kurtzmans disastrous run on TREK series.
Fallout was fucking awesome. If you’re into Fallout that is, which I am.
Remember, you can always watch it on the Skulls and Crossbones streaming platform. Or a torrent of other places.
Just be longer than 10 episodes
i'll take 10 episodes of gold over 1000 episodes of shit.
Ok? Good thing a full season is only ~20? And the benefit of a full season is the character development, which is where the gold comes from, not some 10 episode story you forget about next week.
I was trying to think of a way to shoehorn in my opinion on Wheel of Time, but fuck it, I'll just say it.
Wheel of Time sucked. They fucked it up badly.
but the boxes amazon was shipping things in to promote wheel of time where really nice, I still have one
I went in thinking "ok, fan fiction, alternate take on the universe", and it was an ok show with some surprisingly great parts. Then the season two plot was just a turtle fucking a snail, and I was done.
Edit: to be clear, it was slow motion WTF, why is this nothing happening?
Eh I had accepted the major and completely unnecessary changes. In fact, I got used to them and was really enjoying it in the last season as it was finally getting better.
Then it got cancelled for no reason.
Someone once pointed out that in this meme, the gate controller is shouting commands to himself. Now I can't unsee it, and neither should you.
I was fine paying for Amazon to make the highest quality stuff that I wanted to see, like the Expanse, Invincible, the fucking Boys etc as I do believe I can't bemoan the lack of quality programming if I'm not helping foster it.
But then they included ads in the standard package and I jumped back into the high seas. Fuck that noise.
the invincible more less degraded in quality as the seasons went on, at least for the animation, and the length of time between such short episodes, people are so done with it already. the boyz is ending which makes sense.
It's not going to be a total reboot either! Same universe as produced that had Jack O'Neil played by Richard Dean Anderson. I hope they guest star Amanda Tapping at least once.
Or, what if the whole thing is about the Ancients before they ascended?
i suspect an origin story wont work either, they rarely recieve good reviews, as a subplot it would be great. lets hope it something like a new galaxy, or unexplored part of space.
Amazon has financed the Expanse. That's it. The evil fuckers have zero credit to the quality of the TV adaptation. It was two seasons at SyFy - then, sadly but unsurprisingly, SyFy was unable to turn it into a source of revenue (Hi Firefly :( ) and amazon financed it because the shitbucket in chief at amazon is an Expanse fan.
I think it was 3 seasons at syfy.
There is a bit of a shift between season 3 and 4.
Hey now. No need to drag shitbuckets through the mud here. 🤌🏼
Pirate it and encourage all your friends to pirate it.
This is the way.
Plenty of Amazon shows are also shit. Just like how Netflix and all the others have a mix of good shows and bad shows.
I want to believe, I really do, but basically every “new version of thing I loved from childhood” has been profoundly disappointing.
My guess: [bad guy] comes back because [good guy] is actually bad guy now, in a complete reversal of their entire character growth arc, and [bad thing that we took care of in the last show] is back because [history erasing lazy writing so they can just tell the same story again].
probably a new enemy, other than the GOAULD, or ori, since they are pratically neutered as an enemy. or the series goes into a new unexplored galaxy which is highly possible. staying in the milky way already as a series already have been played out in sg1, no need to continue it.
also if they care about continuity, they would have to revisit SGU arc at some point too.
I see you have also seen [show/movie brought back after a long gap]!
Produced by just means "paid for by," anyway.
So there's a chance it can still suck if Amazon pays the wrong people to make it.
Even if they pay the right people, it may still suck if they try to influence the creative process at all. Over all, I am not optimistic.
The showrunner worked on all three of the TV series so as long as he doesn’t try something like rebooting SGU it might be good.
But if it starts with a drastically older Robert Carlyle defrosting I’m only giving it two episodes.
The one actor who I most want to reprise their role is Michael Welch as Jack
holy shit. so much this

Let us hope it is the last footwear to fall.
But what about the rings of power?
SEAL THE IRIS!
What is this from? I keep seeing gifs of soldiers fighting medieval knights and it looks really cool
I’m not sure about this gif, but that’s the premise of GATE.
Carnival Row wasn't too bad either IMO
