For whatever my vote's worth, I'd prefer to keep it in the before-movie time slot. I sometimes can't stay up until the end of the night, and I love these non-movie series. Sometimes the movies are hit-and-miss, and I appreciate the run-up to the movie. From the intermission, to the shorts, to the episode of a thing, then to the movie.

Ideally, we'd get a way to have this run in the CyTube room where we have more engagement options to shitpost with.

It's really just a me problem I suppose, frequently waking up between 2 and 4am, by the time the movie is starting I'm usually in shutdown mode, and having to sit through several shows that - no accounting for taste - I simply don't appreciate the quality of makes it more difficult.

I will also say that when I ask "how long before movie" or something to that effect, there's several things I could be saying: 'I need to take a nap if I am to continue later', or 'I need to run to the store to get an energy drink, how much time do I have'. But really, what I am saying is "I'm trying to schedule something on the fly, and i would appreciate an at least rough estimate of how much time I have. I don't know is an acceptable answer. So, if you insist on displaying trash shows (I said it) then I insist that you meet me in the middle by giving me timeframes when I ask. Deal?

It wasn't a request, it was an offer of parlay. And, it's the far more reasonable ask.

It's true that I regularly attend movie and everything streams, and I usually don't pay attention to them because I'm waiting for the movie. "After ponies" can mean anywhere from a few minutes to a half hour when one has been tabbed out, passed out, or otherwise indisposed. But I suppose it's on me to communicate that better.

TBH, I would give I, Claudius more of a chance if one of the first things I saw wasn't Patrick Stewart with blond jerry curls.

No worries, it seems like most of the issue here just stems from miscommunication. I’ll try to keep your situation in mind.

> TBH, I would give I, Claudius more of a chance if one of the first things I saw wasn't Patrick Stewart with blond jerry curls.
It really is quite a good series. The pacing is probably slower than usual compared to more recent shows, so it’s not really something you can watch casually in the background while doing something else, but I think if you give it a chance and watch from the beginning you’d like it.

Absolutely, it is crucial for the viewer to keep up with the dialogs and sequence of events from previous episodes.

In the particular case of I, Claudius, I can't specifically speak to validate your point about being/feeling lost (though there was plenty). It was pretty easy to see that it was n emperor growing increasingly megalomaniacal to the point of pathology; anon's point wasn't wrong.

But in no reality are you going to convince me that Jean Luc Picard both has a full head of blond hair AND is a legionairre or whatever. Headcanon request denied, and the entirety of the production must bear the stain even before any further analysis occurs.

I, Claudius is a 1976 British series. Star Trek the New Generation, is an American series beginning in 1987. There is no possible confusion, and even if it is, the former is hairy, the later bald. Let us be sport anon.

There was never the expectation that the schedule would change, this is purely shitting-on a bad series that managed to be sufficiently less-bad than its contemporaries to manage 'critical acclaim'.

It is a master piece anon. I'm so sorry you won't give it a chance.
The first time I have a glance on this series I thought exactly like you, boring and trash, but years later it came to my hands the full DVD collection and just for pure boredom I gave it a run. Imagine my surprise when after the second or third episode I realized that that shit actually was platinum.

They said the same thing about Avatar (the blue people one), and out of spite waited like 10 years before I finally caved and watched it. The assumption was that there was no way that the hype was justified. My intuition proved correct in that case, and I have less good feelings about I Claudius, even beyond the ridiculousness of Patrick Stewart. There's acting, and there's ACTING like you're acting, and I Claudius is the latter; pretentious, super-serious, and dull. No one is saying "stop watching the mini-series", but each episode feels longer than a whole-ass movie and clearly I maintain no reservations about saying so, for the record.

The preciousness of I, Claudius is not in the acting or image/studio set, but the story and dialogs teaching about wicked psychology in a old civilization.
The corollary is that human kind has not changed a bit.

Wow, hot take. By that logic, a text or history book is a masterpiece. Basically all you have indicated was - as I said - it isn't good, it was the best available at the time.

I never read a history book showing me the emotional interactions of the participants. I believe it is called "dramatization".

Okay that's fair. Regardless, English media - and this is Shakespeare's fault - has this preconception with how Roman culture behaved that doesn't resonate as anything more than atrificial. Even the good acting - Claudius does a good job - doesn't result in a suspension of disbelief; it feels more like a recorded play than a mini-series, and I just can't take it seriously (it does that well on it's own and without assistance)

From the perspective of a Hollywood consumer, your assessment is understandable. As how elitist the following might sound, this series is not quite suitable for the unwashed masses.
