TV Shows

Watched first episode of Ms Marvelā€¦great start for a new series!

Latest episode of Obi-Wan šŸ¤Æ

Finally got to sit down and watch Eternalsā€¦could have been greatā€¦I mean, come on THE OG, from the beginning of ā€œourā€ time, superheroesā€¦.but only felt OK. I can see why it flopped a bit in comparison to the headliner hero movies. Still a decent watch on Disney+ if you have a couple hours to spare.
 
I know I am a bit behind but binging Apple + ā€œFor All Mankindā€. This is a great show with an interesting timeline change . An extra flutter of a butterflyā€™s wings can set into motion a series of events that changes everything
 
Dark Winds on AMC Man.. Based on the 1st episode muy bueno. Breaking Bad like but on the Navajo Reservation Robert Redford and George RR Martin producing Good show!
 
B Dave mentioned For All Mankind so I decided to binge it on the flights. Just finished the first season. I would say I find it interesting but at the same time they seem to start a storyline and then just drop it.
 
My wife and I have been watching Eureka.. She ( my wife ) only saw a few episodes back when it originally aired but has gotten reinterested in it....
 
Enjoying some truly horrible (in a good way) TV. The Stranger UK series on Netflix. It has an all star cast, and more plot holes than a cemetery.
I've always enjoyed a bit of cheese, and with my diet, this is the best way to get it.

Also watched Invasion on Apple TV. Very mixed feelings, some of it was really good, and some pure garbage. I enjoy a good slow burn, that wasn't the issue, I love artistic touches, but some of the relationship stuff just got a bit too much for my tastes, and being a bit of a Japanophile, found the take on Japanese culture a bit hackneyed, for something that was trying to be so modern.
I stoped about 15 minutes into the last episode, I'm sure I finish it some late night when I bored, or not. I will at least give season 2 a chance.

Speaking of, there's one show that I absolutely loved, all time top greatest shows for me, Baskets, where I just never have been able to bring myself to watch the last episode, and it feels better that way.
 
We just started watching Moonhaven... It seems pretty good so far
. It surprised me a couple of times which is Very Rare for myself to be surprised during a show because I usually have a show figured out within the first few minutes......
 
anyone watching the terminal list? pretty damn good show on prime, only 8 episodes but very well paced, lots of action and a decent story to go with it
 
Finished watching Ozark yesterday. Talk about gritty! That was one hell of a wild ride and train wreck šŸ¤Æ
 
What did you think of the ending? I have read mixed reviews on the ā€œjusticeā€ that prevailed
I thought it could have been better. I was hoping for something a little bit redeeming for everyone. I guess it follows the shows mostly consistent theme of constant mess with very few breaks.

I am always a fan of the endings that we had growing up - maybe unrealistic - but I always appreciated a good redemption story or happy ending and it seems it is rarely done anymore or if it is, itā€™s clunky and unbelievable.

The exception to my opinion is the movie (probably before your time) - To Live and Die in LA where the main character dies (who was a cop that didnā€™t play by the rules) - and his partner (who was always trying to go the straight and narrow) - basically takes his partnerā€™s path and then makes the informant work for him - so the anti-redemption - but in this case it worked šŸ˜‚
