woah baby that sharp objects ending is an all timer

Just did a binge watch, entire series was mediocre to decent until the final scene then wham it becomes great. Hope everyone stuck around for the mid-post credit cut scene.

Watching "Jack Ryan" on Amazon Prime.   It started out good but it's devolved into the usual stupidity associated with entertainment that requires a total suspension of disbelief.  I'm in the third episode and it's pissing me off.

Finished it.  It got better.  The ending was ridiculous but satisfying.

I gave Disenchantment a shot on Netflix. I don't think I'll finish it. I'd probably be better off watching Futurama again if I wanted that kind of thing.

The man. The myth. The legend.

the killer was revealed in episode 2 but sharp objects had nothing to do with the crime and everything to do with the time

it was everything true detective was desperate to be and tried so hard....sharp objects was effortlessly brilliant

Binged on Succession this week.  Not done yet but what a good farging show.

just flew through succession as well.  I wasn't excited to start and was lukewarm but really ended up enjoying it.

Gave up on the Man in the High Castle after 7 episodes.

I almost quit on this show.  I actually said enough already after trying to figure out the whole films scenario but I was traveling last month and after a long day of travel I was ready to hit the sack. Watched it as I knew it would knock me out faster than an ambien. Decided to suck it up and finished season 2.  Season 3 starts up in October.  I read somewhere this series cost a shteinload to make.

Someone pointed out earlier on this thread bad writing when you actually appreciate the Japanese and German characters over the boring Americans.

It's never horrible. It's never very good. It's the most steady, mediocre show on TV. Fascinating setting, but everything else is kinda dumb. It needed better writers.

I do actively root for most of the Americans on the show to be killed, too. They aren't even one dimensional characters. They are zero dimensional, completely empty and uninteresting. We're just supposed to root for them because they aren't Nazis.

I watched both seasons. thought it pretty good but def not must watch. could've been much better. didn't read the book, but think I may check it out.

Finished the first season of Patriot (on Prime) last night. Interesting premise with a quirky presentation that's kind of fun. It doesn't hurt to have a hot French speaking actress as well.



It looks like Amazon renewed it for a second season. Looking forward to it.

QuoteDavid Simon: True fact: I actually summoned enough chutzpah last year to try to get President Obama into a writer's room for a Washington political drama pilot that is still in HBO development. Never heard back on that small-bit, pissant offer.

atlanta was really good and probably a little bit than maisel but that show was emmy bait if i ever saw it

oh really
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

i guess its been out for a while but i just saw the trailer for TD3 and it looks really really good

paradise pd (Netflix)- inappropriately funny. certainly good enough to check out season 2 if it happens.

jennifer jones season 2 (Netflix) - good watch, but IMO not as good as season 1.

iron fist season 2 (Netflix) - definitely better than season 1, but that's not saying much. that said, im a nerd so my opinion is a tad biased.

3/4's of the way through luke cage season 2 - certainly the best series of the defenders' franchise. soundtrack once again of the charts.
