Liked the movie a lot. The move with replacing a fun AJ & BP big budget movie with these two and a drudgery of a plot made me bail 3/4 through episode 1.

Way too much dramatization. I’d rather just listen to the historians talk.

Agreed.
Episode 3 is amazing, very brutal and accurate depiction of the air war. Some surprise deaths early on. Also some branching of the narrative and changing the structure of the story which makes sense. Given the nature of the warfare and the massive casualties (minor spoiler, but the odds of making 25 missions and going home like what was depicted in Memphis Belle was something like around a 25% chance. The 100th they are focusing on was one of the hardest hit squadrons in the entire war too.) So they won’t be able to stick to a straightforward, follow the progression of the war type story like Band of Brothers. Interested to see how they fill out the other episodes.

Fair Tax!
Agreed for the most part. Also wasn't a fan of where it ended.

It wasn't bad. I might watch if it comes back for another season.

Started last night and got halfway through season 1. Interesting enough to continue, but not encouraged to hear that

I think season 2 comes out Feb 29
I was wondering about that one and "The Diplomat" as well

I enjoyed The Diplomat and am looking forward to season two.
The Night Agent is like the Nickelback of TV shows for me...

2 episodes in and liking it quite a bit. Tough getting past Gloria from Modern Family but i think she's doing a good job.

Both are good. Unlike most dating/reality shows, I root for everyone on these shows.
Michael, aka Mr A+ from the US show, is awesome.
We just finished it up last night. I thought it was good. Not great but worth watching.

We did too. It was kinda meh for me. I feel like Vergara miscast herself as the lead... From her physique, even with the prosthetic honker, but especially her portrayal which came across as always running scared instead of soul-eating.

Loved the We Are the World doc. So cool to see them in awe of each other in the room as it all came together.
And absolutely hilarious to watch Bob Dylan genuinely not understand that he was actually supposed to sing his part.
Huey Lewis remains one of my all-time favorites.

I finished Suits this week.
Started off pretty good then it got tiring with the same situations over and over again. The last season was a decent send off.

My wife’s favorite series in 2023. I liked Harvey and Lewis the best. Mike’s character not as much. Jessica’s character not so much. Hardman is a good villain.

Lewis grew on me and really enjoyed him by the end of the series.
I agree, Hardmann was a good villain.
I enjoyed it - recently renewed for a second season. One of the shows I watched without my wife as it takes forever to get through shows we watch together.

I binged it a couple of years ago after having never watched it. It's not a show that will leave you thinking about days afterward, but it's entertaining. I liked it.
Episode 1 is a good first episode to convince you to go on or quit right out of the gate.

I rewatched Mare of Easttown (MAX).
I had a general memory of the story but I couldn't remember the details and left me feeling like I was watching it for the first time.
I would hate to label it as a depressing story and lead people to not want to watch it but it did have a bit of a depressing tone...... but gosh dang if it wasn't brilliant story telling!
And Kate Winslet put on a performance that made you believe she was living this life out before your eyes. She was so great in this!!

Definitely should watch it. It's very entertaining and it's an easy watch.
Totally agree with this sentiment. There were times where you were just like, "come on. this again" It was like it was a season or two too long as the beats of every show became very repetitive. Still entertaining but lost a little of the freshness.

Just please don't ever expect any lawyer to do anything like they do in this show ever.
I ****ing hate this show for this reason.

You'd be surprised how many people/clients think it is.

I enjoyed Narcos and Narcos Mexico, so this is qued up for later. At first glance, I am skeptical with Vergara doing such a vicious role. I'll watch with open mind.

Got the message that Warrior's existing seasons will be coming to Netflix in on the 19th. Still not sure if they will make new seasons, so ...
Watch this show. It's bad###. It's Bruce Lee's unfulfilled dream project, which should be enough. It's a historical drama about organized crime, mob wars corrupt cops, immigration, and more in turn of the century San Francisco. There are brothels and opium dens. There are crazy kung fu scenes set to crazy Chinese hip-hop. There is tons of violence. I'm talking myself into a rewatch just writing this

Nice. Hadnt heard of this. Thanks. Definitely will watch when and if it hits Netflix.
Short story. When I clicked on what this was about it reminded me of the following story:
I worked Bureau of Prisons for a decade. For a three month span I would always PAT search this old Asian guy every morning after breakfast. Every morning he would steal 5 or more bananas. I would take them. We never spoke. I just took his bananas. Every morning. I was at home watching that old show Gangland. The episode was the Deadly Triangle and it was basically about the Chinese Triads in San Francisco. One of the primary leaders, I won't say who, was in the episode. That leader was this guy I kept taking his bananas from. I stopped taking his bananas. Ha ha
