El Camino was very well done, the dialogue was excellent, with the enjoyable Gilligan wry/dark humor. A couple pretty suspenseful scenes.

However, the plot wasn’t great & the ending was meh.

The first half is better than the second half, which I find is true in many movies.

  1. I brought this on myself, so I cannot complain.
  2. I made the face you think I make when someone serves bourbon in the wrong glass. Several times.
  3. Thank you.

It's mostly just because I can't stand not knowing what is happening, and I already have no idea what is happening in music at all, except that Whizz Khalifa is Lionel Richie's son. I just want to know what people are talking about when they refer to something, even though generally speaking I never talk to anyone in case they have some dastardly plan to grab beers and hang out.

Also, during almost every single one of those things, I am either reading, cringeing, or flipping off the TV - it's not like I want to be this way, where I have to watch everything. I won't watch MTV though, so I did draw the line somewhere. Except for the Shannara series, which the idiots cancelled without asking me. Had they asked, I would have told them that it was very terrible, but that I wasn't done with it yet.

@Captain Dave Poulin, you should 100% check out 90 Day Fiance and all of the other iterations.

My wife watches it and it makes me feel so good about myself because these people are f***ing MORON's.

From Wikipedia: "Long-distance relationships have challenges that are sometimes difficult to overcome but consider if the distance traveled was halfway around the world and a couple had just 90 days to decide whether the courtship should conclude with marriage."

It's cringeworthy watching some of these people.

I was very, VERY tempted to start watching that, but if I never start, I won't have to worry about never stopping. I've got about six Gordon Ramsay series on there, and I hate that mother****er with every fiber of my being.

Ok, how is this staged? It can't be real.

They go find women in poorer nations they want to put on tv and duct tape them to American schlubs? Is that the angle?

I actually highly recommend it. It's a sight to behold. I wouldn't steer you wrong, Bud.

I think it actually may be real for the most part. These people are TRAINWRECKS. I think some of them have just reached their breaking points. They've also gone the other way recently where people from the US are finding people in other countries and wanting to move there like Ecuador, Brazil, Nigeria, Tunisia, etc.

I watch it when my wife watches it and crack up the entire time so I actually haven't seen entire seasons at a time or anything so I don't know how they end up. I also haven't bothered to research where they are now.
