Keep up to date with current events. LOL

But really. How can this show have survived this long? 210 Episodes. That's a hell of a run. makes you really wonder what all those series that we want but Netflix didn't pick up for a second season or has drug their feet for years on.

That's a great series. I am probably halfway through it.

Oh I love the "Searching for Italy" series too. This is the second season and it picked up just as entertaining as the first!

LOL

No lie, I'm on my 3rd round of watching them. Besides X-Files I don't think I've ever watched a series twice.
X-Files I've watched probably once every other year since they came out. I still think Scully is hot.

So much different from when we were young and all we had was channel 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13. Probably different up your way.

That sounds about right, but when I was young we only had 2, 6, 7, 9 & 11.

Seriously it's a huge problem as the wife and i have almost totally different tastes. We watched breaking bad, ozark, sons of anarchy and dexter together. We ground through House of Cards but it was a struggle. We agree on nothing else, she likes things like This is Us and i just cannot engage.

TBH if I wasn't worried about being too far apart from the mrs on weekend nights i'd pick up the playstation ahead of tv almost every time.

Luckily for me we are on the same page about 90% of the time when it comes to TV and movies, hell just about everything for that matter. Perhaps suffering anxiety was a reach but I do find myself cueing up new series when I see something I'm interested in to avoid not having something available.

Alfisti · 05-20-2022, 02:44 PM

This is Us man..this is...fucking us. Like no, i can't do it. I try but i just can't.

I can't get on with that show either. Is Yellowstone any good?

I think I'll start it tomorrow……errrr…..today when I come back to work. Another hour and 45 minutes left on this shift and I'll finally be able to get some sleep.

Haven't read the last few pages but we just wrapped up the "Lincoln Lawyer" reboot. Not bad, not great, but easily watchable.

stein_325i · 05-22-2022, 10:43 AM

Started rewatching Hacks. Originally didn't make it past the first two episodes a few months back but tried it again and really enjoyed it, Jean Smart is just fantastic as always and glad she finally has a true leading role. Definitely gets funnier as the season progresses.

Better Call Saul

The last few episodes of Lincoln Lawyer was much better lit. They try to be too creative using filters and such and sometimes it looks dumb. For example: the miniature looks when showing LA boulevards, the very bright greenish looks when he’s in the car being driven by Izzy, etc.

tcphoto · 05-22-2022, 02:28 PM

I liked Lincoln Lawyer but they did go a little crazy with the tilt/shift effect. I think that it's worth Netflix ordering another season but haven't heard anything yet. I did see that Yellowstone is in production and believe it will be back in October.

The two that make that show, IMHO, Beth & Rip! Good watch!

Interestingly, the French documentary that is part of the HBO Max Staircase is on Netflix as a limited series (also called The Staircase).

Yup, gonna watch that and there's also a TV movie starring I think Treat Williams?

Dang3r · 05-24-2022, 05:47 AM

Had started with "Reacher" season 1, seems to be mild amusement.

Alfisti · 05-24-2022, 08:23 AM

Not sure if mentioned before but F is for Family is brilliant, only show in 10 years to make me laugh, last one was early Family Guy.

The dad trying s hard to not lose his shit but the pressure and constant fuck ups by the kids mean he eventually succumbs to blowing a gasket.

That's because Bill Burr is awesome.

We are going to see him live in September.
