F Is For Family Season 3 Review

This is Christopher Fagan creator of T3medias you can become a subscriber to our YouTube channel youtube.com/t3mediasonline for reviews like this and more reaction videos.

I recently became aware of the genius of Bill Burr a year or two ago. By chance I came across his comedy special on Netflix then had to binge all of his stand-up that Netflix had available. I was surprised that I found out through those specials that he was one of the first comedians to establish a deal with Netflix. I then became aware of his weekly podcast and now I'm addicted to hearing it faithfully every week. before all this the only exposure I've had to Bill Burr was the few skits he did with Dave Chappelle on the Chappelle show. I just thought he was a regular actor that was close to chappell. Now I know that he is a genius comedian who just happens to know David Chappelle.

“F is for Family” is an instant classic and it was a pleasure talking to @billburr and @mikepriceinla about it.https://t.co/DBqubbuQKd

Once I figure it out that the cartoon on Netflix f is for family was created by bill burr I then had to take in every available episode as fast as I could because I knew I would not be disappointed. Season 2 was already available before I understood what I was missing out on so I had to make sure that I was there the minute season 3 was up and running. To me this was the best season because it drove into a subject matter that's very hard to execute. It's hard enough to feel like the people in your life that are important to you or not paying attention to you or what's important to you. It's even worse when they're so wrapped up in doing what's right for the family that they cannot see the harm it's causing to the family. This was a perfect metaphor for the forest for the trees.

The funniest things going on we're all the things happening around the family and how the family was oblivious to it or reacting to it at the same time. Especially by his new crazy neighbor voiced by Executive producer Vine Vaughn. The idea that Bill's former bully has become a weird sort of protector. The racism that's going on at the airport where Frank works has motivated people to better themselves and make change that will affect everything moving for.

But overall the threats of getting put through a wall, my name is Jimmy Fitzsimmons and the new catchphrase “you know what”, will always remain instant classics that will insure hopefully this show last for a long time. Characters that were just seen as background decoration are now stepping in the light and becoming main character level. This was the best season for character development overall and I cannot wait till season 4. Congratulations Bill Burr on a awesome season. don't forget to check out F is for family available on Netflix.

THE BINGE Review

House of Cards Season 6 Review

Kevin Spacey reasons for leaving the show was necessary. Even though it was necessary, it was still jarring not having him there. The thing that kept taking me out of the story was the being reminded of Francis Underwood’s death. Finding out that he was already gone from the opener was just the beginning of the ever-expanding void. I felt connected to Frank. Not to take anything away from Clare but with everything being put to a fast forward paste to just “get it over with” was doing more harm to the overall story.

Every moment to make Clare, a very powerful character, seem more powerful and that power was not to be questioned or challenged was not done successfully in the way it was done for her and her husband. The way it was done felt like a constant message to the viewer of “we don’t condone what he did” and then later “See, we’re still not okay with people treating others that way” and finally “We’re going to make sure that women are the focal of respect and power”. Which is fine, but it seems that the writers were catering to the wrong audience of the message. Spacey was not accused of harassment of a woman. 

The need to turn House of Cards into a message of apology to the people that were offended by what was done in reality was misdirected. Nothing really there for the LGBT community in any of this season. At some parts of the show it catered to the idea that a woman should not be president for the ridiculous reasons most chauvinist give. That being said, it comes up a lot about whether or not the Me-Too movement goes too far since the punishment it dishes out is even across the board but all crimes and its accused are not the same. In the justice system there are different types of murder, homicide, and theft but one reaction to the many cases of sexual harassment and assault. 

Over all, the season gave a screeching halt to a once brilliant momentum of a serial tv show. It probably would have been best for it not to be renewed or for Clare to be given the same type of energy and passion into her character. I just feel like every episode, as it got closer to the end was a set up to a day starting off with the words “Let get this over with so we can all go home”.

Reminding us that “he’s gone, he’s not coming back, we’re moving on” was too in your face that it kept me out of the world of House of Cards and I am used to this series taking pulling me in.

#BreakingBad movie in the works from creator Vince Gilligan. The film "tracks the escape of a kidnapped man and his quest for freedom." Production on the new film is set to begin this month.

Could this be Jessie, played by Aaron Paul? The only thing that stands out to me as far as a kidnapping is the Jessie character (spoiler alert) who had to be rescued by Mr. White in the finale. It’s the only thing that makes sense to me. If I were a betting man that’s where I would have the focal on. Does this mean that Walter White made it through? Will he be arrested, his life turned upside down and become an informant to the FBI?

There is tons of excitement on social media and Breaking Bad is trending.

NBC Should Give Tamron Hall Her Show, A Raise & An Apology Because Of Megan Kelly

I have no sympathy for Megan Kelly right now. As you will see on my podcast and Facebook Live posts on the subject. This was the moment in Kelly's episode after she made her remarks on blackface and the people she was okay with doing it on Halloween, where she had already forgave herself. In a world where you had forty plus years of knowing the historic relevance on this subject how how it has hurt and killed so many people in our country. Megan Kelly used her audience, especially the women of color sitting in the crowd as a shield on her credibility, her integrity and her truth. She forgot where she was and reminded us of the person she has always been since before Fox. This woman was able to get a huge contract on NBC taking away beloved Tamron Hall.

I believe Tamron Hall is owed an apology. She should be brought back for the exact same dollar amount that Kelly given, if not more Megan Kelly was never received well by the audience of NBC and MSNBC and her ratings showed it. The fact that it took Megan Kelly having a real moment on the network is more telling on the network. You get what you over pay for. I don't feel that Megan Kelly should be fired for what she said because its arguable that she was hired on the same foundation. This is the woman who argued that black men can not be Santa Clause. Her telling you that she grew up in a community that felt that as long as it is done "Respectfully" blackface was okay. She told a truth. A truth that lives in the bubbled community and upbringing she experienced. NBC knew of this before hiring her so why fire her?

Ultimately its because of the backlash, ratings and the comments. Not particularly in that order but over all it was the perfect straw to break the back. It seems that fans of NBC only had to wait a very short while to get the end result they knew was inevitable. I call for a complete reversal on the issue and implore NBC humble themselves and give Tamron her show back and issue an apology for creating an obvious hostile work environment.

I don't know if Hall would even return, few people have, but if there was ever a moment of a triumphant return that would be an obvious rating boost, its here and now. Megan Kelly forgave herself before her apology. That was also clear. She didn't see the big deal until the outrage threatened her big deal with the network. How do you see something one way for your whole life then take a little flack and in less than twenty four hours completely understand all of a sudden as if the statement of how it was not a big deal in the past suddenly wasn't always a complete fantasy. The truth is, it was alway a major damn deal. To the country, to the people of color it was aimed at hurting and if you feel that pretending to be a black person is a game then let the cops question you for walking on the side walk to your house and treat you like a criminal. Go to a job interview where you're the most qualified and not get the job for "unknown reason". Let your vote be suppressed and have white men, like Megan, constantly call the police on you for doing normal things and tell me then if its just fun and games.

Its easy to not see it as a big deal when you will gladly wash it off at the end of the day even if you did experience those things when you put the color on your skin. The feeling you must have knowing that its just one night and will wash off must be comforting but there are people in the world who will die black by hateful acts only because they were born black. That is not to be joked about for your entertainment. if you had a career of saying the things black people have been complaining about is not a big deal and then want to give yourself a controlled and self serving life lesson at another network who's team, sponsors and audience won't tolerate the rhetoric then your insta-apology is nothing more than just damage control and more insulting than the idiotic statement made the day before. I'm more offended by the apology. At least you weren't perpetrating a fraud.

Bodied Film Creator & Houston Native Talk About Making The Film with Jackie Long and Calum Worthy

The director/writer of the movie Bodied, Joseph Kahn came back home to Houston Tx to talk about his work on the film and what it all means. He is accompanied by the two leads in his film Calum Worthy and Jackie Long. Review of the film will be released November 1st after the embargo is lifted.

Bodied is a Roast

Kahn: It's a satire, so we're roasting everything. We're roasting Hip-Hop, we're roasting the people making fun of Hip-Hop, we're roasting misogyny, we are roasting anti-misogyny. We are taking everything and turning it upside down and examining everything.

Coming back to Houston

Kahn: It is always a pleasure to come back home. Number one i have a house here. This is where I started. I love meeting houstonians, we are a very different city. I feel like we have a lot less anger in Houston than other places. Other places have a lot of stuff to work out. There is a sort of base level civility that's in Houston that i feel that the rest of the country doesn't have. Its a special place.

With a lot of different music and moves how did you integrate yourself in this movie?

Worthy: Well the hardest part as the artist was learning how to rap. I had never rapped before. Joseph reminds me, sometimes, that I was the worse rapper to read for this role. So I went to rap school and trained by the greatest battle rappers in the world. In terms of the multicultural aspect, it was wonderful. It was really fun. Battle rapping is inherently very multicultural which makes this very special. It didn't matter where you came from, what your history was, we all connected from the artform perspective.

Long: The most interesting part was the dialog. Its telling a story in the battle raps. So you have to pay attention and listen to whats going on, cause if you miss the littlest thing you can miss a whole fun part.

Kahn: Here's the big thing. Its a multicultoral movie but its not a kumbyya movie. The world today is very tribal. We have factions of people arguing with each other. On social media peopple are arguing with each other. The dialog has changed in the last two or three years. The fortuitest thing about Bodied when we constructed it is its about that dioalog. its one thing when we all agree but what happens when we disagree. You might be offended by jokes but then your laughing at the expense at someone else, its a battle rap. I sucker punch you, I take you places that you won't expect it to go.

How Should Rappers handle none black rap fans using the N word.

Long: I grew up with that word. Being a black person that word will be around us forever. If you have the power to have your fans never say it then you've done your job. But I do not have a problem with my white & mexican friends saying nigga to me. At the end of the day its a word. There is so much going on in the world. I've been hearing it all my life and its never going to change. I could be talking to a friend on the phone and he could say "iight then, my nigga" its so natural now that it will slip out.

Do you think Hip Hop has taken blame for the popularity of the word?

Long: For sure Hip Hop. I would blame hip hop because you gotta think. NWA what did it stand for? Niggas with attitude. You hear it from females and male. Rap is always going to be accepted and I don't care what generation you're in, you're going to hear nigga. So it is what it is and rap is to blame.

Once our interview wrapped Sean asked one final question unrelated to the movie Bodied but was curious enough to ask and generate a response. If you could remake any movie which would you do?

Kahn: Raiders of the Lost Ark
Long: Harlem Nights
Worthy: Forest Gump

These were three very interesting answers.
