Title: The OA
Post by: catastrophe on January 16, 2017, 08:41:37 PM
Has anyone else seen this show on Netflix?  I'm only one episode in, but during that episode they show footage of K-State playing Texas and act like they are two fictional teams from nowheresville.  Even crazier is that they focus on Collin Klein who is supposed to be some guy named Homer Roberts (despite the fact you can clearly see "C. Klein" on his jersey).  What is going on?

Well they couldn't well use a J. Manziel, T. Reesing, or some similar jersey if they were going for that anonymous, unfamiliar vibe while also helping us suspend disbelief, could they?

im guessing they initially used footage of someone getting killed on the field in a horrific injury but then on review it was too gross and so they used normal everyday footage of ck dying and coming back to life
