This show seems pretty nuts. How much of it have you watched? Are the nuts moments taken from a select few eps and it’s mostly pretty formulaic?
It's both nuts AND formulaic. There's always some strange cure to the patients condition. There's a video that pretty much sums up 95% of the episodes of house:

I had forgotten how good Sam Raimi's Spider-Man was. It's goofy, cheesy and the CGI is very much of its time, and it is wonderful.

I watched season 1 and some of season 2 of House with my partner, and have watched a few episodes here and there when it's been on TV, and it feels exactly like this video. Absolutely bonkers show lmao.
Currently watching: Wednesday. Didn't expect to, but I'm actually really enjoying this show lol.
RE: What are you watching? - Dirty Duck - 22-07-2025
I watched Wednesday when it came out and I enjoyed it. Just think it being an Addams Family thing was a bit odd given how off tone it was for the franchise. Should have been a Monster High show lol.
RE: What are you watching? - Wayno - 22-07-2025
I found Wednesday really changed tone after the first few episodes. Turns out it's because Tim Burton did the first 4. The four I enjoyed the most.
I didn't follow up with season 2. It reminded me of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. Good premise, well done and a decent aesthetic but it turned in to some Riverdale knock off pretty sharpish.

I didn’t even notice realise the second season was out. I thought it was wrapped up enough honestly.

It works (though didn't think it would) but feel like this could've just been something divorced from Addams Family.

There's a lot to be desired from the South Park boys these days, however, dropping that first episode of the new season basically hours after confirming their $1.5bil deal with Paramount after Paramount cancelled Colbert to appease Trump is just a grandmaster move. Elo 2800.

First I saw that he had replaced Saddam as Satan's boyfriend which I found very funny (especially given his evangelical following). Then I saw the ending. Utterly hilarious move. I haven't watched the show in a long time but if they actually have 50 of these it's going to be hard to keep ignoring it.

After watching Superman, I checked out Peacemaker S1 and Creature Commandos, right now I'm SO on board with the new DC movie universe, I hope they can keep the quality up. James Gunn seems to have a good mindset so far for how they handle things
