And we are back, another Tuesday is here, which means a new episode of Taboo. According to TV by the Numbers, it's pulled in a respectable 0.6in the demographic with 1.84 million viewers. Sadly, I can't speak to how well this is compared to other FX shows, but a promising start nonetheless.
Tonight's episode is simply titled "Episode 2":
>While James Delaney assembles his league of the damned, an unexpected arrival threatens to disrupt his plans.
There is a stream somewhere, to be sure, but no idea about where to find it. In addition, while you wait, you can view Gone Girl as we wait and just as important, what did you think of last week's episode?
Kayden Murphy
There's no new episode today.
Henry Adams
Yes there is. Where did you get that info from?
Logan Allen
yes there is pretty good so far. anyone else gettin a lovecraft vibe?
Dominic Powell
mistakenly posted this in lake mungo thread
It falls in line with peaky blinders, tudors and god knows what other historical hokum gets filmed these days. See, it's divorced from reality and the reason it's divorced is not because it's some sort of fresh perspective on colonial age or indeed a commentary on how gigantic corporation influences our lives that still resonates today, but this divorce comes from how gimpy the characters are. It's all fine and well that they have an agenda, ailment or a facial twitch, but every single one of them just comes prancing on stage and whips out their cue, to no error, even stutter feels contrived and rehearsed. I guess tv shows are another victim of american comic books because I have no idea where this would fit better, a decent premise ruined by quips and ready made personalities.

Joshua Thomas

Ayden Hall
Probably a Brit where it airs on Friday, ahead of FX showing it in the US
Jayden Carter
So that explains how he got the ship.
Colton Harris
F bombs are the new normal. I could get used to this.
Christopher Howard
Did he just say FUCKING?
Charles Nguyen
THE FUCKING AMERICANS
Kevin Evans
nigger the main character is a tattoeed cannibal violent lowbrow freak and everyone represents the dregs of society, total opposite of everything lovecraft would write
Jose Watson
Yes he did.
How funny would it have been if a commercial for the new season of The Americans had came on right after?
Jonathan Robinson
yuppp. seriously though. "Fucking Americans!" my balls tingled. now we just need some titties.
Robert Howard
We're about four or five years away from that, sadly.
Nicholas Smith
FUCKING FUCKING FUCKING
>Too bad they never got to say it on Justified
Aaron Morris
Wouldn't have added anything to Justified.
>no drama will ever give you a criminal that escapes from you and creates a DVD with credits
I miss that show.
Daniel Robinson
In burgerland there is
Carter Reyes
FUCKING PATIENCE
THE FUCK IS THIS
FUCK THEM
Josiah Gray
With this show having it, there's no reason for The Americans to not have it, right?
Chase Morris
HERE COME THE WIDOW
Ayden Walker
have the censorship laws changed? what the fuck is happening?
Lucas Martinez
FUCKING STAN FUCKING FATHER TIM FUCKING MARTHA FUCKING READING THE KAMASUTRA
William Cook
better than cabbageland
James Long
You're being culturally enriched
Levi Ross
user, cable technically doesn't have standards; they just impose them on themselves to keep the advertisers happy. This way, they rake in money and keep an audience.
Jacob Walker
Tfw Negan gets his Fbombs censored while lovecraft wannabe is droppin em like candy
Samuel Morgan
Is it just me or are the night time scenes almost impossible to see what's going on?
Sebastian Perez
Curse words are allowed on TV but during certain time slots. You plebs.
Christian Walker
Ooeeoo?
Lucas Martinez
How did the girl get off of the boat?
Asher Rivera
Killer tofu
Levi White
Did i just hear he call himself a "necessary evil" or did I imagine that?
Gabriel Powell
I've only seen it late night, IFC, and on El Rey.
Jaxson Hill
you caught that aswell? so awesome
Luke Richardson
swam?
Landon James
I thought he was talking about both of them.
Wyatt Garcia
I heard it too.
Perhaps; seems surreal for her to show up and then not appear in the boat again.
Isaac Phillips
Is that Doug Stamper?!
Thomas Martin
we are dealing with the supernatural here so who knows.
Carson King
>people don't just download the UK release
William Lewis
Yeah but cable channels do it too. Its some dumb shit about kids being impressed by TV so they censor certain things at certain times. Shits gay.
Hunter Carter
>We will haunt this nigger to justice.
Damn, that edge!
Nicholas Mitchell
>lovecraft vibe stop using words you dont understand
Mason Lopez
DONT DO IT, JIMMY
Benjamin Young
What are some other grim-dark 19th century kino?
John Moore
I don't understand british so I'll wait for the american english version
Jordan Sullivan
What's going on Aunt Diane?
Jacob Sanchez
wouldve been funnier if you said "they dont come with subs". the idea was there though
Brody Gray
fuuuuuuuuuuuuckkkkkkk. that was beautiful.
Jaxon Morales
Son of a bitch that was violent
Need moar
Samuel Brown
I was dumbfounded when Vikings had nudity for other countries.
Jose Hernandez
Sometimes I really can't understand what Hardy is saying as much as I like him.
Oliver Scott
Holy shit, do they at least give you the nudity when you buy the discs?
Anthony Rivera
Fuck. That was actually pretty good.
Joseph Hill
So this series is only 2 episodes long?
Chase Johnson
I've only seen the first episode and I loved it. I'm going to watch it again before starting episode 2. Tom Hardy's character seems to be alchemical, as he is already in loss (dead father), great gains (inheriting property and money), making enemies with the local corrupt government, and exudes a general lone wolf vibe such as when he dealt with the whores.
Asher Turner
Idk probably but I don't really buy dvd unless it's something I really like or want to rewatch.
Owen Bell
I watched the second ep last sunday from hbo nordic
Justin Morales
Came together in the last half for sure. For a moment, I thought he had killed Winter.
Rate the episode: 8/10 here
Leo Myers
I think I need to turn the brightness up on my t.v because I can't see jack shit during night scenes.
Oliver Richardson
I wish I was Tom Hardy.
Aiden Gomez
>herbert west reanimator >resurrects giant african american >taboo >dead giant african american gets ressurected >VIBE
and im not the only one. im not saying cthulhu is gonna pop outta the damn ocean. i just felt a similarity.
Nathaniel Thompson
I wish The Take was discussed on Sup Forums because it's my favorite Hardy kino.
Ryan Gutierrez
Keen for some inevitable wincest aye?
Robert White
>From Hell >Sleepy Hollow >Sweeny Todd >Penny Dreadful >Brotherhood of the Wolf >Count of Monte Cristo >The Duelist
David Flores
>horror = lovecraftian horror because ressurection wrong. doesnt matter if you "felt" it. you are objectively wrong
Dylan Cruz
Fucking Burton is master of that shit in any form even stop motion.
Jeremiah Morales
you're serious, aren't you?
Gabriel Morris
im not good with history, whos the king with the fat gut?
Jaxson Morgan
aftereffects overload tends to produce that feeling
Evan Parker
Do americans really do this?
Why are americans so conservative?
Brandon Rodriguez
>from hell 5/10 >sleepy hollow 9/10 >sweeny todd 2/10 >penny dreadful 5/10 >brotherhood of the wolf 7/10 >count of monte cristo 3/10 >the duelist try duellists instead
Jonathan Adams
Ee neem see wo ha ha
Owen Sullivan
Im right. Maybe if you actually read Lovecraft
Jaxon Gutierrez
This is what happens when the history channel switches to bigfoot shows.
King George is the easy one to remember because he was king during the revolution.
Jace Taylor
>try duellists instead whatever the one that was Ridley Scotts first movie
Andrew Bennett
Its not the King. Its the Prince Regent.
Brayden Kelly
My bad. It was a fat, weird, royal guy talking about war with America and I just assumed.
Thomas White
i wish you nothing but happiness user.
Ryan Scott
Thanks user. But youre still wrong. Hope Ive taught you something.
Parker Walker
his dad is the King but hes been declared insane so his son (the prince) is filling in until he dies and prince becomes king
Sebastian Rodriguez
so Prince Regent George. thanks.
Joshua Allen
Reminder that East India Company was just an honest trading company and not some global megapower as depicted in the show.
Isaiah Wright
You guys realize you can watch new episodes 3 days before it releases in America, right? It releases on Saturday in the UK.
Matthew Turner
yes, we get it.
Benjamin Ross
Didn't realize that until today. This changes things, but we had some good participation this thread, so I'll continue to make them.
Lucas Evans
i choose to wait till tuesday.
Lincoln Moore
Treason!
Michael Powell
cucks
Samuel Fisher
But are the episodes the same? There is some stuff that might get cut. The run time for the UK one is 57 min.
Parker Rivera
That's probably due to them not having to deal with commercials.
Jayden Thomas
thats what ive been askin but nobody tells me. they say fuck and show ass. and ive never seen a show on basic cable that does that. any tits in the UK?
