Special K Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 On 9/29/2020 at 7:34 PM, The Avenger said: Fargo is so damn good! I have loved seasons 1-3 and 4 looks like it is going to be fantastic again. I think I picked up on a clue in episode 3 that the son Chris Rock’s character left with the Italians is going to turn out to be Mike Milligan from season 2. The Irish kid the Italians put in charge of looking after his son has the last name Milligan....that can’t be a coincidence, right? You know how the writers of this show like to connect characters from previous seasons together. Quote

Never knew that NASA was so haphazard in their decision making at the time, of course I was in middle school at the time but remember the moment like my generations JFK. Watched it last night and it was pretty difficult to get through for me. It's interesting to see how the process worked (or didn't). The loved ones of the crew are better people than I. I don't think I could ever forgive the key players for the decisions taken. Quote
The Poojer Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 Started to watch Cuties last night on netflix, simply to see what the fuss was about. I'm surprised people are so up in arms about the 'lewd' aspects of it and give a pass on the fact that it kinda sucks. saw one boob and figured that was enough for me Quote

I haven’t seen it and have no idea what it’s about, but any publicity is good publicity so I’m sure Netflix is making out well with it Quote

I think we watched the first 3 episodes and then gave it the yank. I couldn't get into it, though the show does try to break some new ground in certain ways. On 10/5/2020 at 7:51 AM, Nextmanup said: Bumping my own post here! I guess no responses means no one is watching Lovecraft? I thought it would be more popular. I'm watching it. I love it. Definitely falls in the "weird" category, but it's produced well, has an interesting story with plenty of twists, good action, good music and solid acting. I love the irony of using Jim Crow America black characters as the protagonists in a story based on the stories of HP Lovecraft, an overt racist. Finished season 2 of The Boys last night. First 2 seasons have been incredible! Edited October 10, 2020 by transplantbillsfan Quote
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted October 27, 2020 Posted October 27, 2020 Only a few episodes through it, but I am loving “the queen’s gambit.” I believe it is a stand-alone 7-part limited series. 1 Quote

I just worry that sometimes too many characters/sub stories as love Homelander and Starlight but not big on Maeve, The Deep or A-Train. Quote

We were bored and gave it a shot— were both really entertained. I think we are just into the third episode. I am glad it is a stand alone series— don’t have to worry about cliff hangers and dragging the series out to the point where you lose interest. It’s supposed to end cleanly, from what I have read.

So I just read the 1 paragraph synopsis at Wikipedia and also thought "I'm not so sure about this one." But given all the comments I'll try it out and report back. (Yes, it's 7 episodes only). Quote
shrader Posted October 29, 2020 Posted October 29, 2020 I flew through the first two seasons of The Boys over the last couple weeks. Now that's a fun show. As a side note, I love that they ran with the aquaman is lame jokes. Quote
BillsPride12 Posted November 4, 2020 Posted November 4, 2020 I just got done watching a Documentary series on Netflix called High Score about the rise of video games from the very early years going up to first person shooters like Doom and Wolfenstein. I had forgot about how controversial Mortal Kombat was when that came out. Such different times lol Quote
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 4, 2020 Posted November 4, 2020 Just finished Queen’s Gambit on Netflix. Overall, a very solid 7-part show. I think it ends with great closure too; anything beyond the 7 episodes would have jumped the shark. Quote
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted November 13, 2020 Posted November 13, 2020 Just plowed through the first season of Broadchurch. What a great show! British crime drama. 1 Quote
TBBills Fan Posted November 13, 2020 Posted November 13, 2020 late to the party, but Umbrella Academy is fantastic 2 Quote
Teddy KGB Posted November 14, 2020 Posted November 14, 2020 Fargo all day. Took a while to heat up but the last few episodes have been great. 2 Quote
Logic Posted November 15, 2020 Posted November 15, 2020 Been re-watching What We Do In the Shadows on Hulu and laughing my ass off lately. Quote
Tierlifer Posted November 15, 2020 Posted November 15, 2020 Queens Gambit was absolutely as good as advertised. Picked up the book I loved it so much. Quote
Nextmanup Posted November 17, 2020 Posted November 17, 2020 I just finished the first episode of "The Queen's Gambit" on Netflix. All I can do is add to the enthusiastic response already referenced in this thread. It's a seriously well done show and I am enjoying it greatly! 1 Quote
ChevyVanMiller Posted November 18, 2020 Posted November 18, 2020 The latest season of The Crown has been fabulous. Gillian Anderson as Margaret Thatcher is a revelation. Emma Corrin is so good as Princess Diana, and just as beautiful. Quote
