February 26, 20188 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 26, 2018 -> 10:07 AM) Babylon Berlin has me hooked. My wife started watching it and I was just sitting there around episode 4, and we basically finished season 1 and couldn't stop watching. I tried to get into it, but shut it off with 10 minutes left in the first episode.

February 26, 20188 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 26, 2018 -> 07:21 AM) I almost like it's all in subtitles Is it just me or do some of the subtitles appear for only a split second? Happens to a good dozen or so lines in each episode. Also, had that issue with Dark. Not sure if it's a Netflix issue or what.
March 1, 20188 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Feb 26, 2018 -> 09:43 AM) I tried to get into it, but shut it off with 10 minutes left in the first episode. Same I had people recommending it to me. Didn't make it through the first episode.
March 28, 20188 yr QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 28, 2018 -> 02:52 PM) The first episode of Barry on HBO was pretty solid. The show has promise. I liked it as well
March 31, 20188 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 31, 2018 -> 07:43 AM) Apparently Roseanne wants her show to be a very short revival Saw it was renewed for a longer s2. I thought the first two eps were good. It's not totally pro Trump and thought it is done in a way anyone can watch it without getting pissy.

Am I the only person that doesn't watch or not watch TV shows based on the actors political beliefs?

Am I the only person that doesn't watch or not watch TV shows based on the actors political beliefs? I think we have to get used to the idea that network television is becoming a thing of the past. The demographic that is still watching network television tend to be older and more conservative. Liberals are younger and by and large are gravitating towards streaming services. And as far as Tim Allen goes, call me when they do a Home Improvement revival. Jill Taylor might have been the best part of that show. Edited April 1, 20188 yr by Sox-35th
April 3, 20187 yr The second season of A Series of Unfortunate Events was even better than the first one. Just a spectacular series and show! Neil Patrick Harris was perfect for the role of Count Olaf. Even just comparing it to Jim Carrey's role in the old movie, it just blows it away. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something to binge.
April 3, 20187 yr The Terror on AMC is really good. It seems to be following the book pretty well. Jared Harris is perfect as Francis Crozier.
April 3, 20187 yr Almost done with season 3 of The Magicians. Solid writing and a good story. Narnia meets Harry Potter meets adult humor and language.
April 4, 20187 yr The season premiere of The Americans was pretty awesome. Not sure how this thing is going to end.
April 5, 20187 yr The Looming Tower on Hulu is great. It is, however, very frustrating to watch seeing how the CIA and FBI kept information from each other. The show so far makes the CIA, especially two agents, look worse, but I'm sure blame falls on both agencies. Knowing how this all ends with the 9/11 attacks, it's very upsetting to think it could have been prevented had the two agencies actually worked together.
April 5, 20187 yr It Was Him: The Many Murders Of Ed Edwards This looks interesting but I can't quite tell if it's real or just some crack-pot conspiracy theorist trying to connect all these famous murders to one single man. That seems highly unlikely.

There was a 3 part docu-series last year (can't remember the channel) that was very eye opening on how much was missed leading up to 9/11. After watching The Looming Tower I want to go back and watch it again
April 10, 20187 yr Thought this was kind of funny: https://uproxx.com/hitfix/westworld-season-...video-rickroll/ Long story short: the creators of Westworld are big Reddit fans/users. They posted yesterday a message that said they were going to provide a video detailing everything that happens in season 2 in order to avoid all of the theorizing and unintended revealing of spoilers that comes out of online group discussions of the show. They posted the video this morning and it's a very clever rick roll. My wife and I started a rewatch this week to prepare. Forgot how much I liked this show.
April 12, 20187 yr Caught Andre the Giant in my hotel last night randomly. I felt like they could have done more. But overall it was good.

I'm halfway through it. Heard the director in an interview say that it was originally like 3 hours but HBO wanted it at 90 mins at the most.
April 12, 20187 yr Patriot on Amazon was a quirky show that I enjoyed. Started The Expanse, streaming on Amazon and liked season 1, have kind of waned interest during season 2. Paterno on HBO had my blood boiling, and can't wait to watch the Andre the Giant special. Tried starting Black Sails but couldn't get into it, will probably drop after 3 episodes. Picked up Atlanta last night and I'm hooked.
