Good series so far, but AWFUL title (and that goes for generic titles that come up w multiple hits, e.g. 'The Chase').

Finished 1883 last night. I really liked it the first few episodes, but really ended in a bad way

Spoiler alert

I mean when the wagon train starts, life was not that rough back then. The Brazos river was not toxic. Tornadoes are dangerous, but uncommon. I don't think the mortality rate on your typical wagon train was nearly as bad as what this series betrayed. And Sam Elliott's ending was really really really bad. There is not going to be a season two, but there is a new series, I believe it's called 1923. I may skip it.

I watched the latest episode of South Park and it didn't disappoint. Right on par, the subject is a timely one.

"Back to the Cold War"

They are portraying Putin in a way that he probably would not appreciate. Lol. I have to admit, Trey Parker and Matt Stone have no fear.

Have not seen that yet but I will soon. Big fan, and nothing seems to be off limits for those two. Love it.

Finished watching all 4 episodes that are currently available on Epix. And they’re very good! Definitely an interesting watch with enough suspense and curiosity to make me want to continue watching.

adding this to my watchlist...seems like the type of show my wife would like, too!

A Touch of Frost. David Jason plays DI Jack Frost.

Brilliant scene.

[RickFLM4]

Pieces of Her is starting out pretty good. Hope it doesn’t spiral into something that sucks like some other Netflix series.

[Our03z4]

Just finished the 1st season of Reacher on Prime. Pretty good show. My wife seemed VERY interested in it for some reason.

Also almost done with Snowpiercer, the show not the movie. I've enjoyed it, I always like apocalyptic shows though.

Haha, he's a nice looking fella but way too beefy. My wife enjoys Justified more for similar reasons.

Yes, it's really good. I'm on episode 6. I started it last night and couldn't stop.

One of the girls in the office just told me about this. She binged the entire season yesterday. I came here to ask and POOF - here it is.

Tx for confirmation, guys. I have this on my 'to-watch' list.

So many shows, too little time haha.

started it yesterday and got 4 in by bedtime. it's dragging a bit. The premise behind the show sounds great... mom and daughter in diner face a crisis and mom's badassness from a previous life (unknown to anyone) comes out.

I'm going to finish it because I'm 1/2 way through the season... but netflix missed a chance for something great here.




side note just finished Mayor of Kingstown Season 1, enjoyed it... a bit of a Ray Donovan feel.

Still waiting or my wife to come back from a business trip (in Costa Rica now) to keep moving on 1883. We're watching it together and she'll be pissed if I get ahead of her

I just finished the first episode of Pieces of Her and the daughter is lame, she showed zero common sense or survival skills. The mother seems to have quite the secret life that I hope reveals itself.

[tranquility]

Man, what is going on w Raised by Wolves? It's dragging on so much now.

The daughter represents how most people in society are: 1) lacking situational awareness and, 2) unable to think under stress. The above stated behavior continues to present itself as the series continues. The irony is that her character is a police department dispatcher who sees the ugly side of things due to the role she performs…..and even still, behaves rather ridiculously when she's the one caught up in the mix.

Got through 2 episodes and bailed. I could see where it was going, basically endless episodes on religion vs secularism..... i'm out.

Yup, it's very frustrating, esp considering she's supposed to be associated w the police if not an actual cop...that diner scene....it's like she was 5 years old, and all those other things she does, makes me wonder how she survived for so long haha, and this is only after just watching e1. They really went overboard w her character unless they somehow rationalize it later on.

Of s1 or s2? I've lasted till s2e5 and it's so dry but I'll still finish it. I get their pt but it's so slow, esp those Marcus scenes, I don't want to constantly watch 'cavemen' stuff when it's set in the ultra-future.
