Btw, that stat is legit, right? I remember reading about Tommy Lee always getting nailed for speeding while his wife at the time Pam Anderson always gets let off.


I appreciate the pass.


I'm sure it happened more back then than it does now. With most officers being outfitted with body-worn cameras and/or not knowing who is recording us (…be it the driver/passengers in the car or some passerby), I think officers are reluctant to give passes simply because the woman is good looking. I'm not trying to be part of somebody's anti-law enforcement YouTube vlog.

Ya, you're so right about that; I guess as long as you continue conducting yourself honorably, it should be no prb cam or no cam. Stay safe out there.

Glad I gave Terminal List another shot. Finished the second episode last night and it’s picked up quite a bit.

Almost gave up again but around 3/4 of the way through the first episode it got interesting. Good story but still not crazy about something. Still seems a little hard to follow at times. Will stick with it though.

I watched the first episode last night. I was going to start the 2nd, but the first one drained me a bit. I watched my usual back up program, Shark Tank on CNBC. I love how the Sharks can be so brutal at times.

I had the exact same feeling about the first episode. I think you’ll find that it gets better after watching the second.

Yes, agree. First episodes are typically that way. They have to give you the backstory and introduce you to the characters. This is not the best show but I find it entertaining. Worth watching to me.

We watched the second episode last night too. Still not loving something about how the production was done but planning to stick with it.

I thought the season finale of "the boys" was brilliant. Good twists. I loved the "flash dance" bit

Just watched the third episode of Black Bird on AppleTV. Good cast, good show so far.

*I believe it may be some of Ray Liotta's final work*

Star Trek, strange new world was also very good. Seeing captain pike in a star trek 2 uniform, was a great twist. The only real let down was casting: Captain Kirk, not nearly as charismatic as William Shatner.

Re s3e8 of The Boys, I dunno, it has kinda jumbled and the first one I saw in which the writing wasn't up to par, some things were just flimsily done and didn't make much sense. Still a good watch but not as great as I expected.

I was hoping for a Nadal/Kyrgios semi. I don't think the antics or his game will be enough to beat Novak.

My wife and I have pretty much given up on it. I think they are trying to establish relationship between Spock and Pike similar to Kirk and Spock with the banter but it seems a bit lame, and then there is the constant underlying PC vibe. This show might be good for some but we just aren't feeling it.

Finished The Terminal List a couple nights back. Solid show but it starts really slow. This is coming from someone who has little to no tolerance for slow programs and I typically call it quits very quickly. You have to get a few episodes in on this show for a proper assessment. If you get to the end of Episode 3 and you're still not feeling it, move on.

I would also mention the story can be difficult to follow if you're multitasking while watching. The story is a little deeper than I expected and perhaps the depths to which they take it may be uncessary. Thoughts on that from anyone who has completed it?

Have not completed it yet but I have enjoyed it so far. And agree that it started slow.

We have 2 episodes left. Your second paragraph is spot on.

I'm a bit of an absurdistic comedy fan, like Rick & Morty, F is for Family(excellent) and that kind of stuff.

But also the absurdistic crazy Prime Video series from Argentina:
Porno y helados.(Porn and ice cream) Loving it

Also recommended: Spanish Netflix series: Entrevias. Great stuff.

Cheers
Robin

Finished season 1 of Terminal List. Good series, thanks for the recommendation. Took about five episodes for me to really get into it.

First two seasons really good. I think it's kind of jumped the shark in season three (yea, I know Henry "the Fonz" winkler is in this). I watched the first episode, don't know if I'll watch anymore.

I am almost thru season 1 of Terminal list, it's intense but nothing great although I love Chris Pratt.

Just finished the last episode of Last Kingdom, if you never saw it try it. Great show, i think its better then Game of Thrones although not as complex.
