I still need to watch the movie. My big concern was that I would be comparing too much but after a down season it might be a good time.
|
The movie is an all time horror-comedy classic.
Watch it ASAP. |
I watched every episode of the hit 1990’s show “Fantasy Football League” on YouTube over the last week. Football currently annoys me but if we could go back to the 90’s I’d love it again.
Dion Dublin the horse cocked warrior sells houses now. |
One of the twists of Interview with the Vampire I called.
|
I’ve been looking for a good show to sink my teeth into and there are a lot of options so I went for “The Expanse”.
I saw an episode a year or two ago and it was ok but it didn’t blow me away, it has great reviews and I have been told to just press on through season 1 so that’s what I’m doing. The cast is extensive and the sets have a lot of money behind them so hopefully it’s worth the hours I’m about to devote. |
Watched The Devil’s Hour starring ex-Doctor star and Lewis Capaldi’s second cousin once removed Peter Capaldi and the guy who plays Commissioner Pete Savage in The Batman. Pretty good.
|
The Expanse is pretty good so far. It’s a mystery spread across the solar system.
The best thing so far has been a piece of imagery used immediately after a terrible act of terrorism perpetrated by the UN of all people. So far so good. |
Season 2 of The White Lotus so far is fantastic.
|
I’m onto season3 of The Expanse and it is a very solid science fiction effort. Wes Chatham is an anchor but I sort of wish he was the lead. Steven Strait annoys me.
|
I've heard great things. Just hard for me to go down the science fiction road for space stuff.

Tulsa King
Sylvester Stallone plays a mafioso who gets out of prison after 25 years and is sent to Tulsa by the boss he did the time for. If that doesn’t pull you in it’s by Ty Sheridan. I swear that man is his own industry now. |
I don’t want to get my hopes up too high after this opening episode but this has huge potential. Stallone was the right man for the role.

I recently watched House of Dragon, which I liked, though it lacks the humour and verbal jousting of GoT; it is kind of like season 5 of that show. After HoD, I decided to re-watch GoT, and I'd forgotten just how good seasons 1 to 4 were, and the crap-fest it became in season 6 to 8. It saddened me. I'm about 3 years behind the times, but I'm watching Chernobyl at the mo, and it is very good. I've stayed away from The Rings of Power; sounds like an absolute shit-fest of wokery. |
Chernobyl would be a perfect show if it didn’t blame the scientists so much.
|
I finished Chernobyl and it was pretty darn good. I'm a low-key Jared Harris mark, so I tend to enjoy anything that he is in.
I recently bought the fourth season of Westworld, so I'm going to re-watch the previous ones before starting on that. I've also gone a bit old school and I'm on the first season of Miami Vice. I'm loving the 80s cheddar, and the woman who plays Gina Calabrese is an absolute dime. |
The wife and I have been watching Yellowstone, on season 3 now.
|
Started watching North of 60.
|
Season 2 of The White Lotus is excellent so far, better than season 1
|
Tulsa King still going strong, just finished “The League” which has to be one of the most hit and miss comedies I have seen. The good was great, but the bad was pathetic. The wife was particularly terrible and it even made me lose respect for Mark Duplass to a degree. You’re better than that role and show buddy.

Taco looks like a less retarded, burn out version of Will Ferrell
|
Jon Lajoie. Canadian Comic, pretty funny.
|
Yeah he was good, Kroll also superb. Paul Scheer was phenomenal.
|
Genitals.
|
It did feel a bit like a worse “It’s Always Sunny” only with the veneer of societal success draped across its bastards.

Tacoma FD is pretty funny, started watching that. Anybody from Broken Lizard is ok in my book, they’ll and the Reno 911 guys have very reliable chemistry. Very easy viewing.
|
Amongst the other things I'm watching, I'm currently on season 1 of Nashville. It is trash tv, but enjoyable trash tv.
|
Hayden Panettiere one of the most beautiful women ever to walk this earth
|
You'll enjoy watching the show then.
|
It isn't terrible. My wife watched the whole thing, and I just kinda don't care what's on TV so I watched too.
Not a country music fan either, so that part sucked. Hayden Panettiere's character goes through some serious shit that she went through IRL, at the same time it was happening on the show. Pretty effed up. |
It says something about season 2 of Westworld when I'd rather watch Nashville instead; season 1 was so glorious.
|
Tacoma FD is great stuff. Kevin Heffernan is world class at playing a hilarious chubby tosser and Steve Lemme is a virtuoso merrymaker of all seasons.
If you liked anything Broken Lizard ever did then this is the new ground zero. It does make me miss the others though, at least until the cameos. |
Season 1 Episode 7 of Tacoma FD is one of the funniest things I have ever seen. The ending is perfect comedy.
|
I'm watching SurrealEstate again. Syfy had cancelled it after season one but uncancelled it and they just wrapped up filming season two. It's on Hulu.
|
Tacoma FD is a 4/4 show when the jokes line up, 3/4 at worst.
I love the brains behind it. |
Watched the Murderville Christmas special.... kind of wish it was just Will Arnett and Jason Bateman for the whole thing
|
I was tempted to watch that but our Murder in Successville is leagues ahead of yours

LOL @ naming a network show that’s on repeat on several channels at once. R.I.P. Sean Lock, killed by being forced to work with spastics |
Watched The Traitors. A reality-game show type that I don’t usually go in for but this was captivating.
S2 of American Horror Stories. Average. |
Doing a rewatch of breaking bad. Show is just as good on multiple viewings. Took 4 days off from my schedule between the 2nd and 3rd season to watch some movies but im really eager to jump back in. Really a testament to just how good the show is.
Easily top 5 of all time. |

Paul T Goldman is getting dark now, was hoping for that.
Great show. Tulsa King also very good. |
I just finished I, Claudius. The series is nearly 50 years old now, so the production is dated, but it is still a top drawer show. Sian Phillips as the scheming and murderous Livia is fantastic, and Derek Jacobi gives a great performance as Claudius as well. It was weird seeing Brian Blessed without his beard, and fairly subdued, but he gives a top notch performance as Augustus. I'd forgotten that Patrick Stewart was in it as Sejanus. Overall, its crazy how murderous the Roman imperials were back in the day.
I've also finished season 3 of Jack Ryan. I wasn't really feeling it; I don't know why. I'm currently on season 4 of Nashville, but I'm starting to tire of it. I've also started rewatching Reacher. I think I will rewatch Jewel in the Crown before watching all the current Taylor Sheridan shows (season 5 of Yellowstone; 1923; and Tulsa King). |
Just started The Last of Us.
Kinda weird seeing agent Pena as Joel after having just watched Narcos. Cocaine zombies. |
Watched the premiere of The Last of Us as well..... seems like another dime a dozen post apocalyptic show, only without any sort of "interesting hook" so far.
Wish they didn't jump forward in time 20 years.... want to see a show about the collapse of society for once and not just skipping all of it... Fear the Walking Dead was supposed to be that at first, and it was for like... a few episodes but then immediately went to "society is over" mode and became just the same as Walking Dead. |
El Vaq Tulsa King was pretty damned good, get on it.
|
Paul T Goldman only has one episode left and it’s turning out to be quite an interesting, very odd and fairly funny/uncomfortable look at the sort of lunatic who thinks his life makes for an epic tale of heroism despite all evidence pointing to a fairly humdrum, desperate existence.
The guy himself seems like a sociopath, the sort of goofy guy that has sinister intent behind the Groucho glasses. Made by the guy who did the last Borat film but it appears to be a genuine 10-year labour of love to get this weirdo’s story framed in a way that people can understand and digest appropriately. |

I have never been able to get behind movies/shows based on games that are already very cinematic experiences. It just feels incredibly redundant to me.
|
Yeah… most great video games are like being inside a movie as a character already.

binging that 90's show. pretty good
|
I can’t further taint my memories of That 70’s Show, not after the Randy season and Danny Masterson stepping on the #MeToo gallows.
Seasons 1-7 still make it the best ever kids show. |
Currently watching a 90’s classic “Northern Exposure”. It has an absurdly high rating on IMDB which would be suspicious if the episode ratings weren’t so consistently high all the way through.
Three episodes in and I quite like it. It’s an odd mash up of genres, there’s a fish out of water basis surrounded by incongruous characters presented for appearances as though they are stock characters…then there’s the whole Native Alaskan/Native American thing which is familiar but totally different at the same time. The attitudes are quite sharp too, it has some snappy dialogue which tumbles in at great pace every few scenes. The lead is Rob Morrow who I only know because he was nearly in The Island Of Dr Moreau but fled the shoot when he saw how fucked it was. Well he’s good in this, adept at playing a kind of Pre-Eisenberg arrogant talkative neurotic who excels at worsening a scenario before coming through in the clinch. I assume some of you have seen it before, it was apparently a big hit. The female lead from Cliffhanger is in it, and Billy Drago’s son. He has better teeth than his dad at least. |
Finished the first season of Succession. A challenging watch but a great show. Brian Cox is a powerhouse.
|
It’s funny to think that “That 80’s Show” features the best comedic actor of any version of that show. (As much as I like Kurtwood Smith and Tommy Chong.)
|
A great team will always be worth more than a decent side with one all star player in it.
Glenn Howerton as Dennis Reynolds is the only truly well acted character performance in the entire main cast of IASIP, only Cricket comes close and he’s supporting. I like the show more often than not but it would be far better with some other good actors in it. Danny Devito isn’t even trying and he looks like John Gielgud next to Rob McElhenny. How can the guy that creates the show suck so badly as a performer in it? |
I’ve also seen a few episodes of AP Bio and Glenn Howerton is fantastic in that too.
Personally I’m a big fan of Danny Devito’s awkward delivery on Always Sunny. It’s weird. It works. I don’t need him to show his acting chops. He did that early on in his run and I’m glad they went in a different direction. |
1000 Pound Sisters, My 600 Lbs Life and 1000 Pound Best Friends.
I'm a sucker for these kinds of shows |
Really enjoying The Last Of Us so far.
Never played the game so I have nothing to reference from it - series is excellent thus far. The opening scenes of episode 1 and 2 are particularly creepy. |
We’re doing a House MD rewatch/watching later seasons for the first time. It’s causing me lots of anxiety over what medical issues myself, wife, child, and one on the way could have.
Started AHS: Hotel to get a break. Wife not a fan of the gore. Back to House and anxiety it is! |

I've watched five of the six seasons of Nashville. In-between the ridiculous storylines and the music, there has always been a bit of social commentary running though it, which I had no issue with. But with season 4 and especially season 5, they just went crazy with the preachy social justice shenanigans. I've started the sixth and final season, but again as always, its peak vanished after season 3. I've also finished season 2 of Picard. I don't know why I subject myself to the modern Star Trek series, as they've turned out so naff. I haven't watched Strange New Worlds yet, mainly because I don't want to be disappointed again. |
|
that entire show's premise is being horny
|
Been binge watching “Hell On Wheels” which is classic Western fare in a weekly tv format.
It’s nothing like Deadwood, but it is a grown up Western…lots of fucked up stuff happening in a less casual way. Anson Mount and Common work well together. The whole show should have been about a white cowboy and a black cowboy being pals but the railroad theme is at least a good strong handle to grab onto. |
My wife approached me asking if I wanted to start watching Yellowstone, and then all the spin offs.
I teared up and told her "YEEE HAW" like a good Yank |

I don’t think you have ever recommended it to me
|
I'm sure I did, but if I didn't, I should have.
|
I’m finishing up season 3. Anson Mount looks a hell of a lot like Daniel Day Lewis at times, he pulls a certain shocked/angry face that probably sold him as the lead pretty fast. He’s a good actor too even if his storyline in this makes absolutely no sense at all.
|
I’ve got several Western mini-series to watch when I finish Hell On Wheels.
Westerns are so good. All types of western… |
Season 3 of Hell On Wheels is short on storyline but over quota on the big acting moments.
Great stuff. |
I've finished the sixth and final season of Nashville. What started as a ridiculous (but entertaining) show, became in its final two seasons a preachy, woke mess.
I'm rewatching season 3 of Westworld before I tackle its final season. It is a lot better than I remember from watching this season the first time round, though it does not touch the gloriousness of season 1. I'm also rewatching season 1 of Carnival Row before I watch the second (and I believe final) season. I'm hearing good things about the third and final season of Picard, though considering how low the standard was for the first two seasons, it might still only be average. I'll wait until all episodes are available before watching it. I still got all those Taylor Sheridan series watch yet: season 5 of Yellowstone; season 2 of Mayor of Kingstown; Tulsa King; and 1923. |
Big same on Nashville. I don't really care what I watch, so my wife watches whatever most of the time. I also abhor country music.
The stories were entertaining but over the top for sure. But those last two seasons just became really stupid. Hell, nearly everything after Rayna's death felt..... directionless, really. |
Started watching Picard Season 2 because I hear good things about Season 3 but don't want to skip Season 2.
Three episodes in, liking it a lot better than Season 1 already.... and I am a sucker for Star Trek time travel stories.... |
I enjoyed the 1st season, just finished it a couple days ago. Looking forward to the rest of it.
|
Just finished the first season of 1923. Taylor Sheridan bringing the goods again, though I don't think it reaches the heights of 1883; that series was top drawer. I think the Spencer Dutton/Alexandra storyline brings the show down a peg or two; it is fairly outlandish at times, even though still enjoyable to watch.
I'm around half-way through Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Modern Trek has burnt me too many times, but I have enjoyed the show thus far. It still feels like it is written by 12 year-olds, but Anson Mount has kept it together. |
Ted Lasso season 3 trailer got me in the feels.
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GhjyMwzcIXo" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" allowfullscreen></iframe> I have to say, merely seeing him in the locker room without his trademark Richmond polo feels like serious foreshadowing. I mean the logical end game for Ted's character was always that he'd return to the US to be with his son. So I assume the 3-season arc will stay true to that. But even if Apple begs them for more seasons they could continue to follow his character in the US. Also seeing Nate sitting at his coveted window seat in the Greek restaurant but now he's all sad and alone. Damn. |
Enjoyed Picard season 2. End was a bit weird but overall enjoyed it way more than the first season.
Was gonna wait until all of season 3 was out before watching it but watched the first episode. Was pretty sweet..... |
Liking it more than I thought.... so far. "Time travel" crap but with Q..... and in a way that so far, makes sense.
I'm 4 episodes in I think? Borg Queen just got her power back and they are looking for The Observer. I'm generally against time travel plots, as they invite lazy ass writing. I'm hopeful this continues the way it has. |
Ghosts (UK version) S1. Easy watching. Enjoyed it. Moved on to S2. Think the US version is pretty much a scene for scene remake but with slightly different ghosts.
|
Three episodes into Picard season 3... only one more out.... damn... I should have waited cause I don't want it to stop.
Blowing the first two seasons outta the water. Beverly Crusher has a serious case of melty-face going on though... actress def decided to not age gracefully.... |
Just watched Picard S3 episodes 4 and 5, catching up to the present. Show is pretty freaking sweet..... looking more forward to new episodes of this than new Mandalorian episodes.
|
I'm currently re-watching seasons 1 to 4 of Yellowstone, before starting the new season. Addictive shit, this show.
I've also watched all but the final episode of Tulsa King. This has also been a great show; Stallone is fantastic. Paramount should essentially just become the Taylor Sheridan Network. |
