...and here I still need to watch Gargoyles for the first time (yes, I know, I know...).

Well, now that I've rewatched the aforementioned series from beginning to end (I'm still sad and mad that it's already over), maybe it's time to watch Gargoyles finally.

 

[JD]

Don't feel to bad, I just started watching it for the first time last year. I watched Season 1, but haven't gotten around to Season 2 yet.

You're lucky that you're going to be able to binge season 2. There is an extended storyline where Goliath, Bronx and a new character are separated from the rest of the clan for an extended period. The story was supposed to last a few weeks, but thanks to programming preemption due to the OJ Simpson trial, it stretched out for months.

Muppets Haunted Mansion Halloween special event

I saw the news about that earlier today, and I'm happy about it, I'm always up for more Muppets. I was pretty happy overall with Muppets Now, so hopefully this will be good too.

Muppets Now was a bit too kiddy I thought. Needs to be a little higher in the age group. Felt more like Sesame Street

 

[JD]

It really wasn't that much more kiddie than the any of the other Muppets productions have been.

Walking Dead has been added to the Plus in the UK. That was the last show I expected to show up there

Well, when I signed up, I had to set the age profile to 18 plus to access full Star content. My sister and her husband have it for two young children, and didn't sign up for Star content at all.

What’s interesting if you do that is that it locks Simpsons as it sees that as adult content. That isn’t the case in the US

The Simpsons is not a children's show.

 

[thribs]

Depends on the country. It’s seen as so in the American Disney Plus. Older children perhaps but there isn’t any age restrictions on it

 

[JD]

Just because it doesn't have an age restriction doesn't mean it's a kid's show. It's very much not a kids show.

No one should be watching The Simpsons. It's about 18 years past it's use by date.

 

[kirk55555]

I mean, I'll still watch Simpsons episodes from about Seasons 2-12, and those episodes (some might argue it stops at Season 10, but I go a few years past that personally) still hold up as great TV. Anything past that, and I don't know why enough people keep watching it that it stays on the air.

 

[JD]

I think I must be the only person who actually still enjoys The Simpsons. No, it's not as good as it was in at it's height, but I still enjoy the majority of the episodes.

I rarely found it funny. Humor is subjective.
