I hated the mandalorian. Think Picard isn't tip top, but feels better for me than Mando...even with not great writing, it's far above what they hired some ten year olds to slap together for the SW show.

As a generic, run of the mill sci fi show, Picard is average at best. They basically copied Mass Effect among a lot of other existing franchises for their season long drag it out plot. As a Star Trek show, it's a massive insult to all the fans of TNG and the past series.
Can't wait for Kurtzman to lose control of Star Trek then maybe we can finally get back to some thought provoking plots instead of dragging out this nonsense they are trying to milk for 10 episodes.

Lol. I feel like this is going to be your go-to for barometer on people's TV show opinions going forward.

Netflix emailed me a few months ago because someone from the Philippines logged into my account. I had an old, common password that I know was on dark web. I had never bothered to change it. I changed it afterwards to something unique and have had no problems since.

It is insane. At some points it didn’t seem that it could be a true story it was so wild. What a bunch of lunatics.

yeah - that is where we are heading. GF and I struggled through the first two episodes of S2. We are debating if we want to continue or give upshuke said:

if you like crime/drama/mystery check out The Sinner- 2 seasons on Netflix. Third season is currently airing on USA network (of all places!)
Each season is only 8 episodes and are about 45 minutes each so easy to binge. All three seasons are 95%+ on RT
Each season is a different story line. Really enjoyed both seasons so far.

I prefer the 1st season but S2 was still good. Carrie Coon is in season 2 which is a big plus for me.

Pretty sure you have the option do either.
After how badly Dark was mangled with the dubbing, I preferred staying with subtitles.

I assume dubbed is available but I stuck with subtitles. FWIW the subtitles keep up with the show pretty well.

Really enjoyed the first two seasons... Season 3 has been strange to say the least.. Maybe the finale this week will bring it all together as there have been too many
moments which I won't spoil.

Wife and I wanted something light to watch last night. We've been, like many people, cooking up a storm here and often watching cookie shows instead of usual things. We settled on "Julie & Julia" on Netflix with Amy Adams and Meryl Streep. I don't much care for Amy Adams as an actor and she's not served well by the story intercutting between her and Streep. Everything just grinds to a half with Adams' side while Streep and Stanley Tucci entertain. Nora Ephron directed this which explains, to me at least, why it feels so hack-y and paint by numbers in terms of pacing.
Also watched "Snowpiercer" because we were feeling nihilistic. Good but not great. Feels like it's a version of a J G Ballard novel.

last night i realized that one of the lawyers in Broadchurch is Fleabag
So Tiger King keeps popping up on my Netflix feed, and sometimes I just like to go into a movie or a series blind, with no prejudice.
I knew nothing about this one other than the picture and with a cursory glance to me, it looks like an awful lot like Danny McBride and perhaps another mockumentary and as I do love me some Kenny Powers, I figured I'd give this one a shot as it was bound to be funny and looked extremely unique.
What I found was something much much different and even stranger than I could have imagined.

Started S3 after reading your post...so far so good. Will be hard to top the first two for me, but looking forward to the ride.

- Babylon Berlin So far I like s2 better than s1. Probably finish by the end of the week.
While I recommend this show. Just thought I'd mention that there are some vice activities depicted that people may want to be aware of before allowing their kids to watch.

Not a kids show at all, imo.

ETA... Ymmv.. some teens may like and get this.
Along with the story line circling around flapper era Berlin and all its vices (sex, violence and drugs), it's really a beautifully shot and art directed series. Teens should be able to handle all of that, and the exposure to the beauty is good too.

Tiger King is the giganuts. Crazy ####.
The Sinner first 2 seasons are 2 of my favorite seasons you can find on Netflix that don't get mentioned as much in media. Season 3 is still airing on USA (as someone posted above) and is less good. But The Sinner is a low key gem. It's anthology based so you can watch either season first, but "Cora" will introduce you to the one recurring character on the show (the main character). The Cora season was start to finish pretty great especially and the payoff episode was heart stopping.
The Stranger, to me, was overrated trash. Way too all over the place. Just ridiculous plot that took way too long and too many twists to resolve. Problem is, first 2 episodes are enough to pull anyone in - the set up was so well done.

Just finished:
Tiger King - It’s pretty much insane. Like a mishmash of Joe Dirt, Blackfish, Making a Murderer, We Bought a Zoo, and The Jerry Springer show.
Altered Carbon season 2 - I thought season one was pretty fun. This one was entertaining as well. It’s certainly not great, and the plot can be confusing, but it’s a decent action series.
