The country music show on CBS was not bad last night.  Bunch of artists performing from home.  Enjoyed it.


Wait, is that something I am allowed to enjoy sportslady?  Doubt it......

Thavoice isn’t even worth my time. Which is saying something, because I literally have all the time in the world with nothing to do for 95% of it.

Better Call Saul's episode last night Bagmen may be one of the best of the show so far.

I actually thought about this part of Starship Troops the other day thinking, "I'm doing my part." I love that movie. 

I started Giri/Haji the other day. 3 of 8 in.  It is a pretty good typical detective story. Japanese cop heads to London to help solve a murder that may have been committed by his brother who is a mob hit man.

Yeah, glad you guys caught up on Ozark. The end was epic. The last two episodes of the season were wild. 

The last 10-15 mins of Monday's episode of Better Call Saul was tense. The season finale is this coming Monday. 

Anyone slogging through Westworld? It is an entirely different show, and has its moments, but I find it frustrating to watch sometimes.

Westworld is awful, I stopped watching after S1 and an ep or two into S2. It was never good. 
 

I also didn’t love S3 of Ozarks.  Thought it was just meh. S1 and S2 are incredible though.

I didn’t like Wendy’s brothers storyline. Just painfully dragged on. 
And I also didn’t think the final scene of the season was surprising at all.

ZeroZeroZero on Amazon is great. First original from them that I've enjoyed.

Watching Succession again because the wife wanted to see it now that she has a bit more time. Even better the second time (at least S1 was, 2 episode into S2).

And Bosch. It’s no Wire, but it’s a very fun and well written detective drama.

Not to be debbie downer, but that’s probably my least favorite show ever lol. I could NOT get into it.

You might be broken. I loved it. The dialogue is amazing. I can't wait for S3.

I watched a few of Fleabag. It was ok, somewhat annoying.

I greatly enjoyed that show. 

I finished Tales from the Loop from Amazon yesterday. I thought it was really good and a really beautifully shot sci-fi show. You have to set aside having things explained and just enjoy the ride, but I liked it. 

Other shows I have recently finished:

  • Wu Assassins: Good action show, but some of the plot and dialogue is laughable. 
  • Plot Against America: Typical great David Simon show and good what if of American history. Apparently it tracks closely to the novel. 
  • Better Call Saul: Best season yet and for people that will watch it, it is right up there with Breaking Bad now in terms of quality. 

Wife and I are on Season 5 of Schitts Creek and are greatly enjoying it.

You’re on an island here. All my friends love it. The writing is impeccable. The S2 finale is my favorite episode of TV since Ozymandias (excluding GOT episodes).

Since things are slow in the office and I was occupying time with "Dark Side of the Ring," but now I'm all caught up. So, I did some searching on Vice and found "Hate Thy Neighbor."

What a show. Not shocked, but there are some absolutely ridiculous people out there.
