The Good Place was excellent, the last episode was one of my fave endings to a series ever



Anyway S6 (the finale season ) is now on Netflix

[Ammi]

…I was thinking about making a thread and then I found this one…

…I’m just starting my first watch of Schitt’s Creek…I did try to watch it once before and got as far as episode 5 of season one and then somehow got distracted…I also hadn’t felt really invested in the characters at that time either…

…anyway, I’ve started again from the beginning and still on season 1/around episode 6 or 7, I can’t recall which one of those…

…but I was thinking with the character of Moira Rose…

Spoiler:

…when she was doing the promotion for the fruit wine, where did the English accent come into it…was that a character she had previously played and become famous for and so she was in that character for the wine ad…also, and probably completely overthinking it….but with her wig use and love as well…and also that kind of expensive fashion/clothing taste she has etc…was Moira Rose in any way inspired or influenced by the wonderful Joan Collins…

Catherine O'Hara said that the voice she was doing was inspired by old time movie stars, she also was the one who decided to add in the weird words every episode

Schitt's Creek is perfect start to finish . It never descends into unrealistic drama, never covers anything particularly heavy at all, it's just a displaced family doing relatively normal stuff in a little town. And it's great for it.

I just hope they make a "The Crows Have Eyes" spin-off movie.

[Jake.]

Finished it just now

Absolutely perfect series. Moira is 100% one of the best modern characters conceived.

David probably has the most growth of character, way to write him off because of his voice, though

I haven't necessarily written him off, I just can't stand to listen to him

also lol at lazy mod deleting my whole comment instead of censoring the "offending" word

David and Alexis definitely, followed by Johnny and Stevie. Moira obviously has pretty much none but that's what makes her character so great

Oh, I forgot Alexis!

But yeah, agreed. Moira was just Moira

Although I think that she made friends with the townsfolk which she wouldn’t have imagined doing beforehand but yeah, that’s about as much “growth” as she has lol

[Smithy]

I am literally David

I watched the last season a couple of weeks ago, I loved it but felt a tad underwhelmed by the final ep

[Black Dagger]

Absolutely sweeped the Emmy's last night

[Cherie]

[Crimson Dynamo]

i am rewatching with the TL, we are doing 4 a night at mo. Just started season 3 last night. classic

[Cherie]

Can't believe its finished, very sad I am

[Jake.]

I’m rewatching atm, it’s still just as fresh as it was the first time round

[Beso]

Is this a tribute to sir sean connery?

[hijaxers]

Well we have binged watched from episode 1 to the finale over 2 wks and enjoyed every second of it !

What a brilliant show and what brilliant actors ~ every single one of them !!
gonna have to rewatch to catch all the stuff i laughed through.. talk about cheer ya up

Excellent.

Just binged the schitt out of this, it took me a good few episodes to really start to love it but it's by far the best American sitcom ever imo I'm so sad it's over. Moira has to be one of the greatest characters ever and I agree with whichever one of you said they need to do a Crows have Eyes film Also agree with loving the fact that it never went too far with stupid drama and really just stayed about their relationships with eachother and the people in the town. Also I'd have to say Alexis is my favourite character after Moira but literally loved every character in it besides maybe Mutt, he was kind of annoying. Looking forward to watching the after show thing tomorrow

It’s Canadian! Which surprised me too

Also couldn’t believe I only discovered/realised that David and Johnny are real life father and son after I’d finished watching

There was a question about this show the other day on Tipping Point (or the Chase?) and Ben Shepard (or Bradders?) was clearly enjoying saying Schitt on daytine tv, as he repeated the question multiple times

[Niamh.]

Were they supposed to be in Canada though because they were talking about moving to New York and California and I thought all the motels they were buying up were in America too?

It's supposed to be ambiguous I think, they never mention a state or exact location and they talk about various cities in both the US and Canada. I would place it in the US though just on account of "the locals" having fairly generic US accents rather than Canadian, and it being implied that they relocated from New York and that Moira spent most of her career on a "Sunset Beach style" soap opera which would be California.

A lot of US shows are filmed in Canada though (e.g. CW "Arrowverse" stuff like The Flash, also Supernatural, all filmed in and around Vancouver) purely because production costs are apparently much lower. Often the actual setting is "Generic US City".
