Same with Loki. I think it is one of the best things Marvel has put out actually. 

Also watching Kevin can f*** himself. It is a cool concept. Sometimes it works, other times it feels too on the nose. 

I finished up Top Chef and Hacks last week. Hacks is really good and a quick watch. Also watched Sweet Tooth over the last month. It starts well, and then just is fine. 

Jean Smart is terrific in Hacks. 

I enjoyed Sweet Tooth. Glad it's getting a second season.

I love that show. I blasted through all 3 seasons. I try to watch on Sundays when I remember to get up. 

I watched a lot of F1 when I was younger, but never really understood what actually goes into the sport. The money, logisticis, etc...just insane.

Verstappen is killing it this season. Also, Haas is beyond terrible. 

Haas is punting on this season for the new rules packages in 22. The new cars in 22 are radically different.  Some think Mercedes is doing that now. As in, they are not really advancing/ updating the car like they normally do, and instead focusing more on the new rules and cars for 22. That could be BS has they do not want to admit that Red Bull finally caught them. 

This season has been the most exciting in years though.

The latest episode of Loki is one of the finest things the MCU has ever done. 

Just watched the first episode of Hunters on Amazon. Holy smokes. 

Almost done with Hunters, just have the final episode to watch. 

I watched the first episode of Invincible on Amazon last night. It's an animated superhero show. Pretty good first episode.

I saw, I think, the intro to the first episode at a friend's house because he wanted me to see it (the upper-class dude getting accused of being a Nazi and then killing everyone at the party he was hosting) and that was some elite-level insanity!

Yep, that opening scene was WILD. The Nazi was the acting Under Secretary of State in the United States.

Just a few days away form Ted Lasso season 2

Just a few days away form Ted Lasso season 2

Yep. Trying to finish Veep (2 seasons left) to be able to watch this weekend.

I am 1 episode in The Kings that came out last month on Showtime.

It is a 4 part doc on the 4 Kings of Boxing in the 1980s, Duran, Hagler, Hearns, and Sugar Ray Leonard. It is fantastic so far.

Just finished Farscape.  First two seasons are rough on cinematography and effects, but it definitely scratched that Stargate itch (and not just because the two leads later joined SG1 in its last few seasons).

Continuing on my Syfy kick.  Might do Firefly because it's only one season, and then probably BSG.

I am a huge Sci Fi fan. I love Stargate (watched all 3 movies, all 3 series multiple times), Star Trek, etc...anything scifi. 

I liked Firefly, only one season but the followup movie closed some plot wholes left by the sudden cancelation. 

I loved Tera Nova, The 100, 12 Monkeys, the new Lost in Space, Travelers, Next, Another Life (rather good), etc. If its scifi and doesn't suck, I really like it. 

Huge fan of Dark Matter, another great scifi show that was cut too short.

I just can NOT get into Farscape, I stopped mid season 2 and it just seems like muppets in space. 

I will have to watch Expanse now that a few are recommending it.

I agree about Loki. It was definitely their best Disney+ series by far, but was actually better than most of the movies as well. If Loki was a movie it would have been top 5 of all the Marvel movies for sure. 

Just a good plot, good acting, directing, etc. I liked Wandavision as well, but it wasn't as "good". The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was bland and boring, and that's sad because they are two of my favorite "regular human" characters in the MCU. 

Quite frankly, if you are a Marvel fan, and haven't watched Loki yet, you are missing out. It was top notch.

Forget if you watched DARK or not?

I couldn't get into it when it was all subtitles. I have it on my list now that I heard it has been dubbed into English. 

But I haven't watched it yet.

I just realized I haven't watched the final season of The 100 yet. Thanks for the reminder.

Mid-season 2 is about when the effects and cinematography started getting significantly better.  Still really rough in comparison to most modern productions, but S3 and S4 are more serial and character driven (as opposed to "Muppets in Space" the first 2 seasons).  Although S4 isn't as good as S3, and ended abruptly (largely closed with a miniseries after). No promises, but there's even an episode where they run into replicators.

I couldn't into Dark.  Quit a couple times part-way into Season 2.  Honestly, 12 Monkeys ruined whatever Dark might have been for me, although plenty of people love both (and vice-versa).

Took me a bit to get into The Expanse.  Ended up liking it quite a bit.  Best part is there are 3-4 books after where the series ends in S6.

I watched Dark Matter.  It was just OK for me.

I'm the opposite. I tried to watch with subs and I had to go back to German. I didn't like the sounds not matching up perfectly. Plus, reading it helped me stay engaged and understand a bit more. I am the only person I know who preferred this.

The Heist in Netflix is pretty fun especially the Pappygate episodes

Same boat. Hated the dub. Loved the subtitles.

Me neither, its on my list as well.

I am in the same boat for The Flash, haven't watched the newest season.

Watched the first couple episodes of The White Lotus on HBO. Not what I expected so far but going to keep with it as there’s obviously some dark twists coming.

Finished the first season of Hunters. Crazy ending, looking forward to the second season whenever it comes out.

Three episodes into Invincible and it still has my interest.

Yep. Finished the first season the other day. Really looking forward to the second season.

The first two episodes of Utopia on Amazon were good. Seems...topical.
