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.

Anyone watching Mars on NatGeo?  I really like the way they've gone about telling the story, jumping back and forth from modern day planning to futuristic execution.

as much as breaking bad was incredibly overrated the end of s3 e7 was amazing even if the killer walking back to his car for an axe was so dumb

I binged-watched "Travelers" on Netflix today.  Mostly ok time travel sci-fi bullshtein.  No sexy sex, though.  Not the worst way to spend a day crashed out on the couch after an epic weekend of liver bruising.  I'd give it a B-.

I just watched like 6 eps of some pos show called Killing Fields. It's supposed to be the real time unfolding of a cold case murder investigation in whatever shtein hole town LSU is in or near. It's real in the sense that the case is real and the cops on the show are real, but it's far from real. Seems to me like they are dramatizing the show on the fly. Like if they interview someone, there's no cameras rolling for that but then they immediately re-create the interview and dramatize it for the cameras. At least that's the way it comes off to me. And if this show is to be beleived, then to the surprise of no one, small town law enforcement in Louisiana is completely inept.

season 2 of the man in the high castle was excellent.

going to check out goliath next.

The OA was farging weird, but as long as you can completely suspend your disbelief it was totally enjoyable.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.

the OA is another show I have queued to watch.

also, caught part of the GOT marathon hbo was running, watched hardhome from season 5, and battle of the bastiches from season 6.

GOT really puts you in the holiday spirit.

Been watching The Killing. Saw the first two seasons a while back, and only realized that they have 3 and 4 now available. Not terrible, with a couple of interesting characters...but often the pace is way too slow. And it has plot twists that are confusing and unbelievable. Other than that, I like it...hahaha.

i thought the killing was a fairly interesting whodunit the first season but holy shtein did it turn into unwatchable dreck after that

Susquehanna Birder

Yeah, I'm hoping it gets better. But it's a long shot.

I like the idea of a less than gorgeous female lead, and I think her street-wise partner is probably the most interesting character in the show. He's probably be good leading something that wasn't so sluggishly paced.

my favorite on the show was by far the father....really both parents were great but the father was amazing

Not that you post much but what is your interpretation of the ending? I'm sort of baffled.

Susquehanna Birder

Yeah, it pretty much leaves you guessing. But I suppose that's a good thing.
