Yellowstone, as outrageous and over top as it can be, is incredibly bingeable. The cinematography alone is worth the watch.

Running behind on my rewatch of Ozark. Just finished season 2. It’s just such a great show. Can’t wait to get to the final set of episodes.

Ozark completed.


It was so fucking hard not to read some asswipes spoiler on social media. Every time I saw “Ozark” “Ruth” “Marty” I immediately looked away and scrolled passed.

Glad I did.


An awesomely done series. Just outstanding. I’ve never seen a show with so many great characters.

Barry is one of my favorite shows on TV right now. It's written so well. The dark elements are mixed in perfectly with outrageous comedy.

Halo  8/10  I didnt know any of this story except that it was a video game.  It's very well done

Star Trek- Strange New world - 2 episodes in and I like it 8/10

Star Trek Picard-  7/10

Bosch Legacy- 9/10

Queen of the south 7/10-  First few seasons are excellent then it starts to get very unrealistic

Billy the Kid  7/10  Im a sucker for billy the kid stories

Lois and Clark-  7/10

I finished Super Pumped (Uber show on Showtime) and Severance a couple weeks ago. 9/10 for both. 

Currently working on Tehran on AppleTV and going to start up Showtime (Lakers show) next week probably.

The first half of season 4 of Stranger Things came out this weekend.  If you like the show, you will really enjoy it.  So far, a great season.

It's good, just long.

Finished We Own the City, and damn Jon Bernthal was fantastic. 

Very good series too.

Sundays Barry was also so funny.

Stranger Things E1 seems to indicate that they are going a bit more “R” rated this season.

It is excellent.  I’m really looking forward to the second half in July.

Watched "The 100".  Very entertaining, like what Walking Dead should have been in a post-apocalyptic world (minus the zombies).

Although one of the most predictable shows I've seen.  And while the science and writing have issues more than a few times, the acting and execution are generally so excellent it doesn't matter.

It is deceptively dark, very dark.  First 4-5 seasons are great, the last 2 are sort of a re-boot and almost a different show (not awful, but not that good either).

I'm 40 mins into 7. It's good, just long. 

It's just a lot this past weekend.....Obi Wan, Barry, and Top Gun were also on. Starting an episode and seeing it is an hour plus is a lot.

I'd rather they space these put more, and shorten the episodes cutting them up, making them 10 instead of 7 this round. 

Obi Wan is great by the way.

That’s about as accurate description of The 100 I could possibly write. I liked the show but had the same complaints/flaws as you mentioned. 


Good show, I would recommend to anyone who likes sci-fi, dystopia, young adult stuff (think hunger games)

That it is. Last 30 mins are great storytelling weaving it all together.

Third episode of Obi-wan was awesome. 

I realized the Boys comes back tomorrow.

Also, Peaky Fucking Blinders is back on Netflix on June 10th.

Anyone watching Gaslit?  I find that entire Watergate chapter interesting, so I’m intrigued.  Any feedback?

Finished Bosch: Legacy. Wife not into the grimmer ST, so got thru 3 episodes last night. Then it will be Boys/Obi-Wan. Lots of TV watching recently.

I've just started the show a bit ago and agree. Ultra-violence mixed with really dark humor (A-Train's visit to the cancer ward as a Make-A-Wish replacement for Translucent was utter perfection!) is always a great combination for me. Looking forward to the rest of this stuff.
