Reply to Serious question, does anyone think AI could replace voice actors that have either passed away or otherwise left a series? by [deleted]
AI is getting crazy, I wouldn't be surprised if eventually they are able to do so, and personally I wouldn't mind if the alternative is a worse recast.

Reply to Family Guy S21 E9 may be one of the more genuinely funny episodes I've seen in a long time by cowboyfromhell324
I think S21E04 was on par with earlier much funnier seasons. But this season it's being pretty meh.

Paul Walter Hauser should've won instead of Jamie Taco.

Reply to Has there ever been a continuity heavy show that constantly shook things up? by opiate_lifer
Legends of Tomorrow was all over a different place on each season, sometimes even after just an episode, but I don't know if I would call it 'continuity heavy'.
Homeland maintened the whole drama and main plot each season but reinvented itself each season with new characters, locations, etc.

Reply to comment by TheSeventhAnimorph in What would it take to get some regulatory action to stem the tide of not just everyone making streaming services but them basically becoming like cable by StarChild413
Maybe he is referring to shows being moved from network tv into streaming? Although thats is the opposite of a show killer, more like a hail mary. I don't know of any case of the opposite (streaming --> network tv), so I don't think it's that either.

Disclaimer: I had a stroke reading this, but I'll try my best to answer.
Whats wrong with binging seasons? You are not forced to do so, watch an episode a day or one each week like the last 93 years.
Give me an example of a show killer? First time I've read this term.

Reply to All of these tv shows came out in the last few weeks, give me your thoughts on them. by ExplodingPoptarts
The Midnight Club, on the weak side of Mike Flanagan but quick and watchable.
Dahmer, pretty disturbing, great acting, great fidelity to original footage.
Black Bird, great show, amazing acting, prize worthy, great and satisfying binge.
The Terminal List, good dumb mindless action fun, quick hook, plot wise nothing new doesn't try to reinvent the wheel, quick binge.
Night Sky, sadly a cancelled story that leaves many questions open.
