@Nepia it’s all good. It’s something about the costs after season three, Netflix has to take more onboard.
Effectively they are Netflix originals.
Last Jessica Jones was great again, hope it comes back in some form or another.
Oh yeah, I was meaning their non licensed from other studios/networks originals as that’s all drying up as the streaming landscape in the US is about to get silly.
I can see a rise in illegal downloads coming.
Never really got the Marvel TV buzz, didn’t like the first Daredevil which kind of set the scene I guess, and the Jessica Jones S1 was decent but too long, which actually was the same for Punisher. Clearly not my bag which is strange as they’re all in my wheel house.

@Nepia the thing they do well is the slow burn plot with a big payoff. TV for adults instead of kids with no attention span.
In Daredevil, the single tracking shot sequences were amazing. The escape in season three on one take is incredible.
Punisher left me cold, it was just too bleak. Never watched the second one.

Oh burn.
I never got to S3 of Daredevil, one was enough and that's the one everyone usually rates the best. I actually don't like the actor, he was also in Boardwalk Empire and I didn't like him in that either.

Another launch just a few minutes ago. It is crazy that it will be so routine soon it barely makes the papers

well they were talking to Jacinda about that this morning and I wasnt paying that much attention (cos there was more pregnancy talk) but the gist I got was there was some legislation that had to be rushed through for them to do the launches, but is further stuff that is needed going forward...not to mention the sign off required to put something into space from the Universe Police, USA
I just did some googling and it looks like there is no 'Universe police'. There are bodies that keep track of frequencies etc but no actual rules in place.
The caveat to that is that it is expected that everyone play nice with each other as it is quite easy to get revenge on someone pissing you off by blocking or degrading signals.
Scariest bit is that it sounds incredibly easy for a rogue country with capability to upset everything up there and bring down all comms.Ha, just reading back on this thread ands this post of mine. @taniwharugby was actually on the right track it seems. Since posting that I have had dinner with a guy whose task for a couple of years was smoothing the way and obtaining the permissions from the US.
