Be careful out there, re: TV spots. I randomly saw a 15-second, HBO Max-produced spot last night on TNT after one of the NBA games and two split-second shots totally spoiled a big moment later in the season. Why they included those shots is beyond me, but it pissed me off.
This is why I avoid the episode previews!
SNL dress rehearsal is done immediately before the show.KidDoc said:If you want more information than you need, and to have a good laugh, listen to "Fly on the Wall" podcast.Ghost of Bisbee said:
I've always wondered how difficult it is to host SNL, especially if your background isn't in standup?
Do they show up, recite their scripted lines a couple times day off, and hope for the best?
Basically though they follow this schedule:
Tuesday- big table read through- go through all the potential scripts and Lorne and the host pick the top 10 or so.
Rest of week do some rehersals,
Friday do a dress rehearsal, Saturday during the day do a full run through that is filmed, then the live show.
They have cards with colored writing for all of the lines that they can just read off of if they want to. Walken is kind of infamous for just reading off the card unapologetically.
If you want to know what a week is like at SNL, this is a fantastic doc made by James Franco that follows the cast throughout an entire week. It is extremely interesting:
Does he sexually harass anyone?

Considering how high budget it is, I wouldn't expect s2 for quite some time.
Will totally be worth the wait though.
Not if I have no clue what transpired the first season.

Chuck is officially Ron Swanson.
This is something Nick Offerman would absolutely say

Compare and contrast the last video game I played to Last of Us.
It was either Tiger Woods 2003 or Madden 2003.
And.....GO!
Oh wait, I wanted to win Johnny a Heisman so I bought NCAA 2013 for my kids Xbox.
Compare it to that.

Had this happen to me too. Why tf would they put that in the preview when it could have potentially been one of the biggest moments of the show? Disappointing.
Well now i'm curious what you guys are talking about...beagle2009 said:TCTTS said:

Uhhh, clearly a spoiler based on previously established parameters set earlier in the thread.
This isn't a spoiler.
Jokes, man, jokes. Clearly you're new to this thread.
It's nothing you did. It's just that the thread has been pretty contentious the past few days, as we've attempted to define what, exactly, is/isn't allowed here, spoiler-wise. So when you showed up all chipper, it was just kind of funny. Like someone excitedly showing up to a married couple's house, unaware that they just had a long, drawn out fight.
This is gigem basically
Gigem now.
First time poster. Never saw the game. Haven't read anything about this show.
Watched it today.
Caught something interesting. Wheelchair bound granny in episode 1 is completely deaf. Episode 2 they said the clickers can't see but can hear.
Well, granny tracked pretty well. Fungus restores hearing??

I take it she had not evolved into a clicker yet. Clickers can't see because the fungus has overtaken their eyes. The fungus could still see through grandmas eyes.

That's fair.
if you want, come post what you saw on the regular thread to avoid it here….I went searching for the tv spot trailers on YouTube and didn't see anything that jumped out as a spoiler to me for the story so I'd say you're safeTCTTS said:

I'd rather not engage in a convo over there, where people start replying to what was shown. If you're really curious, I just did a search in YouTube for "last of us spot" and one of the two shots I'm referring to is actually the thumbnail for the fourth result/video down, titled "The Last of Us HBO Show NEW FOOTAGE - (TLOU HBO)." I swear some of these people maliciously include shots like the one I'm talking about in their thumbnails, just to piss people off. Granted, it's not like a mega spoiler or anything, but it's still absolutely confirmation of something that hasn't yet been answered. For the life of me, I can't understand why HBO would include it in official marketing, as nothing in any of the other trailers/episode previews ever really gives anything away.
Gotcha. What you said was accurate.
Kinda is but pretty minor not a biggie

So I assume it's not the fungus seeing through Grandma's eyes, but the fungus is effecting the host like rabies. Makes them wildly aggressive in order to spread spores to as many hosts as possible. But rabies doesn't see through the host's eyes either.Madmarttigan said:

Yep, the open to the first episode addressed this. The fungus alters the host's mind to achieve its ends while keeping the host alive as long as its useful. It does not seem like it's able to take over and "see" or "hear" in place of the host.aTmAg said:So I assume it's not the fungus seeing through Grandma's eyes, but the fungus is effecting the host like rabies.

I was curious why we saw that infected in the first episode who seemed glued to the wall, since it seems like all the other infected are able to move and attack. I guess there are some whose bodies no longer provide sustenance to the fungus and are killed.
I don't understand why some seem to be instantly sick and attacking (early in Ep 1 when they are attacked in town ) but others get infected, Tess and the little girl they checked halfway thru Ep1 and gave her a drug to kill her and threw her on the burn pile, and they're fine for a few hours.BowSowy said:Yep, the open to the first episode addressed this.

Also, how do the infected stay alive? They still need food of some kind, even as a host.
Who was instantly sick? Everyone we've seen so far slowly turned over time. If you pay attention, there is a sign in Boston describing the infection:
That poster on the wall explained it. It depends where you get bit. If you get bit on the ankle, it will take longer than if you get bit on the neck. Rabies does the same thing. You could be scratched by a bat and then last for many months until you start showing symptoms (and by then it's already too late.. you might as well jump off a bridge to end it before it starts to really suck).
The very first episode. They are driving in town, get in a crash and there are instantly sick people chasing them. The military shoots one of them chasing Joel and his daughter when they run into the field behind the store.DallasTeleAg said:
