if anyone was looking for something to be mad about during quarantine, the r*ng*r is here to deliver, as usual, with their best tv character of the century draft:

https://www.theringer.com/tv/2020/3/...-intro-round-1


really curious what % field & seeding are rand, bc wtf


key matchups going forward:

- tony soprano should crush his section, and meet walter white in the elite 8
- "villanelle" is being set up for an upset as a 1 seed, will prob lose to nathan fielder in r2 (pretty wide open bracket that could go to yoda, or arya, or pinkman, or...)
- bracket 3 is interesting with tyrion, leon, dwight, al swearengen (who is about to lose in r1 to the ~10th lead in barry, r u MAD yet?), cersei, ron swanson, peggy olsen, etc
- bracket 4 has omar on a collision course with larry david, and r2 matchups like michael scott vs charlie kelly, and saul goodman vs rust cohle


will be interesting to see how this popularity contest plays out based on the r*ng*r demo, recency bias, etc


prediction:
walter white over ... idk, yoda?
tyrion over michael scott
heisenberg wins

also, peak r*ng*r that this thing was put together by multiple ppl, while everyone is just sitting around at home, and they couldn't be bothered to write anything about most of the matchups lolol


bonus peak r*ng*r: the voting doesn't really work on mobile?? lol

So much wrong, but I think the most egregious recent one is Kendall Roy instead of Logan or Roman

nothing can possibly be more wrong than al swearengen losing in the first round to some ****ing guy I've never heard of jfc I'm tilted now


swearengen a no doubter top 5 of all time my god

NoHo Hank ****ing rules, you have to watch Barry.

But yes, shouldn't have lost to Swearengen

Follow up on the bolded

Netflix added Community and I had forgotten just how damn good the first few seasons were. I'm in the middle of season 2 and have busted out laughing so many times. The back half of the show hemorrhaging cast/creators really made me forget just how high the peak was. And I haven't event gotten to the d&d episode!

Yeah I'm rewatching and S1+2 are still so good. From memory I thought S3 was largely crap (well, crap in comparison) so didn't bother with 4+ at the time. But being in lockdown I'll probably get to it all

2 seasons into Le Bureau des Legendes (The Bureau). Slow starter and definitely took some sticking with but definitely delivering now. S1 basically sets up s2 and it's gotten really really good

Genre was a top 10 all time TV episode

the new season of ozark is boring

the "new family member shows up and first everything is good but then he turns out to be rotten and totally irrational" is such a boring tv trope. they even did it once before

it was pretty slow for a lot of the season but the last 2 episodes were really good.

West World has totally jumped the shark.

Idk, I'm digging this season of WW

I was until the last episode which was garbage.

Money Heist is great btw. Kind of like an Oceans 11 Prison Break

Show definitely recognized its popularity and forced seasons 3 and 4 (and likely 5) but seasons 1 and 2 are elite

it faded towards the end of season 2 too. i didnt even consider starting on the following ones

but yeah the first 10 episodes or so are elite

not loving the last few eps of BCS

yeah, the last episode was...not good. Overall it's been much better than season 2 though

Really? I thought they were some of the best the show's done.

the drinking pee was just a wee bit much. as was super hero mike killing 6 super armed dudes

i see what you did there

sniper mike, not super hero mike. this wasn't an ok corral situation.

Unsure on the watching times over in Yankland but Better Call Saul finale has dropped in Australia this evening

You and I have very different definitions of "better".
