As of 2 weeks ago, I might no longer be the only guy in the USA who had not watched Game of Thrones. Still at the beginning of S2, and pretty hooked.

It's pretty damn good. HBONow has a free month, so I'm thinking it'll cost $14.99 total.

Just finished the staircase on Netflix. Have no damn clue if michael peterson killed his wife or not  

It was messed up though that they convicted him.

To each their own....It's an amazing show.  Don't wait around for RR to enjoy it.

I've debated reading from the beginning....but I don't think the ROI is there.

I'm just reading the first book first, not waiting around for GRRM to finish the entire series. That might never happen, unfortunately.

The more I watched, the more I felt he was innocent. Idk, that was an odd one. Really had me scratching my head.

Just finished El Chapo.  They lost me after he faked his death.  They go from present, to flashbacks, to present.  Couldn't tell which was which.  Enjoyed it very much, though.

I love Billions. 

Succession, which has a similar vibe, finished up on Sunday. It is, to me, one of the best shows of the year. Each episode just got better and better. It starts slow, but gets really, really good about episode 4. Plus some of the lines are just great. "Closing the loop" and "Greg the mother fucking egg" .

Better Call Saul started last night and was excellent as usual.

I didn't realize Saul was back until this morning. I'm excited for it.

Gonna have to figure out a way to watch episode 1 from last night because I forgot too and didn’t record it. Fricken AMC never replays episodes.

That is probably a good plan. The first book and the first season are where the show and books match up most accurately and as Martin expanded the world more and more in future books, the more things got changed to where (if you've read the five existing books and giveaway chapters that have been provided) entire subplots got chopped to keep the show running smoothly.

Anyone know why Freaks and Geeks never got a 2nd(or more) seasons? Just watched it over the last week and it was pretty good.

It had bad ratings for various reasons, one of which was it's timeslot.
