If you're like me you are happy that SCANDAL and HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER are returning to TV tonight. I HATE the Christmas breaks that television shows take. Networks should fill those breaks with exciting and original content.. Thank God for Netflix & Hulu, because a little binge watching can help to take ones mind off the lack of TV content during the Xmas/NewYears break.
This year, I discovered a new way to entertain myself.. I found out about TheStream.tv a website and YouTube Channel. What is TheStream.TV? Well, its a collection of "After" Shows. What are "After Shows?" An "After Show" is a show that comes on after a show you like where fans talk about what they just saw.. (Like "Talking Dead" is to "Walking Dead")
This winter I was able to catch up on the shows I love like SCANDAL, ARROW, THE FLASH, THE STRAIN and AMERICAN HORROR STORY (to name a few) by listening to fans talk about each episode.
Now, I may disagree with some of the speakers, I may wish that they used skype more, I may wish that they used technology better, but for now I like to listen to people talk about a show that I love.
Hopefully the after shows will get better with time.. But I highly suggest, if you LOVE a show, catch the AFTER SHOW on TheStream.TV or Stream TV on YOUTUBE. I go to them after EVERY episode of The Flash, Gotham and Arrow because i'm a superhero geek but its going to be fun to watch them talk about Scandal after tonights episode (the 1st new episode of the year).
