Round 23.11  -  Mini Series  -  Shogun

Off to the dentist.  Whee!

This series is so authentic that the original modern Japanese was translated by Toshiro Mifune into the court Japanese of the 17th century.  It is just gorgeous to look at.

And the whole thing is available on YouTube.  Still looks great.  I'd kill for just one of those kimonos.

24.10 - Children's Show - Arthur (PBS TV series)
 

No. of episodes    246 (480 segments) (list of episodes)
R
Arthur is a Canadian-American animated educational television series for children ages 4 to 8,[4] created by Cookie Jar Group (formerly known as Cinar) and WGBH for PBS. The show is set in the fictional American city of Elwood City, and revolves around the lives of eight-year-old Arthur Read, an anthropomorphic aardvark,[5] his friends and family, and their daily interactions with each other.

The television series is based on the Arthur Adventure book series, written and illustrated by Marc Brown. WGBH Boston along with Cinar (now Cookie Jar Group) began production of the animated series in 1994, and aired its first episode on October 7, 1996.[6] Since its debut, the show has broadcast 246 half hour episodes.

Arthur often deals with important issues families face such as asthma, dyslexia, cancer, diabetes,[8] and autism spectrum disorder. It also encourages reading and relationships with family and friends by explaining that people have different personalities and interests.[9]

Arthur became one of the highest-rated shows on PBS Kids for several years since its debut, averaging almost 10 million viewers weekly in the U.S. It is aired in a total of 83 countries, including on: PBS in the United States; Radio-Canada, Knowledge Network, TVOntario, and CBC in Canada; several ABC channels in Australia; and BBC One/CBBC in the UK and PBS Kids in Africa.[10]

It is the longest-running children's animated series in the U.S., and the second longest-running animated series in the U.S., behind The Simpsons.[11] In June 2018, it was announced that Arthur was renewed for four additional seasons, up to Season 25, continuing through at least 2020. 

The series has been acknowledged with the George Foster Peabody Award and four Daytime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Children's Animated Program....The show has also won a BAFTA and was nominated for 17 Daytime Emmys.

Underrated Show

Surprised that The Monkeys went before The Monkees.

It was the superior show. Like the Beetles

I will fix it

Awesome pick.  This was one that I thought of after my pick that made me almost wish I didn't select what I did.  Didn't think I could sneak him in lead either.  

 

[AcerFC]

Ill wait for gally for a little. 

 

[Gally]

Pick 25.02 - Peaky Blinders (Category - Foreign)

Who doesn't like a show about British Gangsters that wins BAFTA's?  Plus as the 12th selection for this category there is some room for nice value here which is something Team GallStein usually has an issue with.  Hopefully this kicks us off in a nice direction.  

@timschochet on the clock

25.04 Veronica Mars- TV Detective

@mphtrilogy ?

@Yo Mama Can you check me on that. On mobile right now. 

 

[Ilov80s]

Halfway point, wow! I’m curious if I would be able to draft a free agent team at the end of this. You are all digging deep.

 

[Charlie Steiner]

Awesome pick.  This was one that I thought of after my pick that made me almost wish I didn't select what I did.  Didn't think I could sneak him in lead either.  

I was very surprised to find out he was never even nominated for an Emmy in either category; just one of many times the powers that be got something wrong.  Ron himself wouldn't care about awards, so I guess it's fitting.

25.07 - Harry Bosch - TV Detective

This is one of my favorite Amazon Shows and I love Titus Welliver's portrayal...

Shhh.......we don't want the judge dinging him for that

I totally agree.  I loved that show but there were quite a few on this board in the Amazon prime thread that didn't.  I figured he wouldn't be on the radar....

 

[Charlie Steiner]

He's Ron F*cking Swanson. He dings the judges.

 

[Yo Mama]

There’s going to be some crazy good 91-20 shows undrafted since that time period is so deep

 

[Yo Mama]

@tuffnutt I believe...

Correct

 

[Gally]

There’s going to be some crazy good 91-20 shows undrafted since that time period is so deep

Seems like that should have been split with the quality in that time period.  I mean we could have gone 100 rounds....hahaha

 

[mphtrilogy]

I totally agree.  I loved that show but there were quite a few on this board in the Amazon prime thread that didn't.  I figured he wouldn't be on the radar....

I'm trying to balance what I love and what might be liked by all.. a fine tightwalk!
