That and Manhattan I'll binge this weekend. GF is going out of town with her mom so I will need stuff to watch.

Ted Bundy victim doc was ok. Not sure why they tried so hard to parallel the rise of feminism with his murder spree. The daughter of his gf (Molly) was the best part of the doc imo.

I watched two eps last night and I enjoy it.

I get why they're tying the rise of feminism into it.

Please explain. The officer who was the only female on the force that they wouldn't let go into the mountains because it's rough terrain and she's a girl despite her wilderness experience was the only sort of tie in. They completely drop that narrative around mid episode 3. Also semi spoiler alert not sure how they didn't work this women's story into the fold

I looked at it as because that's when women began to separate themselves from the old thought of just growing up to be a housewife.

They were out and about. Integrating themselves into politics and nightlife and things like that. And it coincided with Bundy unleashing his women hunting ways.

It was easier for him to pick and choose than say ten years prior.

I finished Hannibal.  Cinematography maybe the best I've ever seen in a tv show. 

I'm a little more than halfway through The Expanse.  I like it but I don't think it transcends the genre.  So, if you like sci-fi, watch it.  If not, eh.  First few episodes were slow compared to the rest.

My wife and I have been making our way through Breaking Bad finally since we never saw it.

I can def see why this was considered one of the GOATs back when it was airing week to week. I think it loses some of that on a day to day binge like we're watching, but I'm sure that's true with most any show.

We got to the "I am the one who knocks" episode the other day. That was one of those lines/moments that was a huge cultural moment and I remember it being the Very Online person I am, so it's weird to see it now years after its big pop culture moment

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

Such a great show.

Better Call Saul should be up next when you're done

been gettin de twaalf....a belgium double murder mystery that comes from the perspective of the 12 jurors...im thru 6 of the 10 eps and so far its a fantastic pandemic watch...some of you troglodytes may not be able to get past subtitles but if you can fight your way thru that its def worth it

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.
