For those of you not aware, CBS has just cancelled “The Late Show” a show that has been one of the most-watched late night shows since it first aired 32 years ago. The network claims this is a “financial decision,” to which I say BULLSHIT! That would be like Coke saying they aren’t going to make Coke anymore because they can’t compete with RC cola.
We all know the real reason “The Late Show” is being taken off the air is because of how critical host Stephen Colbert has been of the Trump administration. This is an extension of the same cowardly boot-licking CBS displayed when it settled out of court over Trump’s bogus Kamala edit lawsuit, a case they could have easily won if they had anything resembling a spine. Well I for one will not stand for such cowardly bootlicking! I’m proud to announce that I will be canceling my subscription to Paramount Plus just as soon as the new season of Dexter ends!
Have you seen “Dexter?” It’s a show about a serial killer who only kills other killers. I know it sounds a little tacky but it’s actually good! Well, it starts good, then it gets super tacky, but then that like kind of becomes part of the charm? Anyway, much like Dexter, I’ll keep my Paramount subscription alive long enough to serve my needs and then as soon as I get what I want it’s going right on my table, because FUCK AUTHORITARIANISM!
Obviously I want to take action immediately, but I’m already three episodes in on “Dexter: Resurrection,” and I would really hate to not finish it. It’s not great, but “Dexter: Original Sin” was surprisingly good, so I feel like they might stick the landing better than they did with “Dexter: New Blood.” But yeah once I get real closure on this Dexter/Harrison story line I am taking a stand against tyranny and pulling the plug on Paramount Plus, permanently!
Well, okay actually, I’m looking at my queue and there are a lot of movies here I still really wanna watch. I’m deleting all the ones that are available on other streaming services, but it’s still a lot of movies. “Pet Semetary 2?” Damn, I haven’t seen that since I was a kid. If I remember correctly, it’s not as good of a movie as the original “Pet Semetary,” but it’s more fun in a schlocky way? So yeah, I’m gonna finish Dexter, see if my take on “Pet Semetary 2” holds up, watch a couple dozen other movies not currently available on other platforms, and then it’s by by to the bootlickers over at Paramount!
Oh fuck they have “Smile 2?” I mean, I thought “Smile” was overrated, but I heard the sequel really blows it out of the water. Alright, I’ll add it to the que. But that’s IT.
Oh shit, they have all three Naked Gun movies in 4k?! I mean I’ve seen them all a hundred times, but not in 4k! I bet the higher resolution really makes the sight gags pop! Ugh… okay, three more movies, that makes about 26 movies and the rest of this season of Dexter and then I am DONE! Oh, “Airplane” in 4k too? Well, obviously that’s going on there. Oh, and the sequel.
Shit, I just remembered they’re doing another season of “Dexter: Original Sin.” Did I mention the first season was surprisingly good? I mean, I didn’t think I could buy anyone besides James Remar as Harry Morgan, but damn if Christian Slater doesn’t give him a run for his money! No release date on that yet, huh? Ugh, no fuck it, I can’t keep putting this off! I’ll just finish Resurrection and a couple dozen movies I got queued up, pull the plug, wait for Original Sin season 2 to wrap up, then get a free trial and binge it and then pull the plug again!
Okay, maybe I’ll check out “Yellowstone” first. Fuck.
