similarly, i watched only the first episode. it feels too similar to "30 Rock" in its rhythm, beats and voice that i don't need to see much more of it.I couldn't make it through the first episode.FreeBaGeL said:

Aileen: Life and Death of a Serial Killer
Another documentary on Aileen Wuornos. This woman's life was a train wreck from the word go.
Creepy, creepy story.
There are scenes where you can see evil spinning out of control where she starts out talking about when she dies she will be in heaven with the angels and Jesus, and in the same breathe she starts screaming how she wants the prosecutors children to be raped in the ###.

Loved it. Incredible acting and atmosphere. The pace isn't for everyone. The flash forwards aren't for everyone. Honestly I wish this was a True Detective type of one-off, and that it had just ended, period. A little differently, of course. Wasn't a fan of the reveal at the end.I really liked it too!

I would give it a shot. I've been hooked since the start. It's a slow burn but it's good.

Found myself interested in most characters.
Many will give up on it cause of the slow place but worth grinding through imo.

Yeah, there's been enough positive reaction to give it a shot. I dropped streaming but will probably get it again in the summer.

Agreed! Well written and such beautiful scenery. I was hooked from the get-go on this and binged on it for 2 days straight. I certainly hope it remains great for additional seasons for obvious reasons for those who have watched it. I am hesitant to give away spoilers, although the show pretty much does so early on with the flash forwards.jdoggydogg said:I really liked it too!

Highly, highly doubt it. Marvel's going a different way here, even though it's still the MCU. This is going to be really dark, violent, gritty. Kingpin is supposed to be a twisted *******, too.jdoggydogg said:

Have some dumb questions
Have some dumb questions
So Danny's son saw John and Kevin going to his house. The camera angle almost made it seem like someone was watching John kill Danny at the beach. That so, or just fancy camera angle?
Was Danny sending $ back home, for his son? or another cause?
It appears S2 will focus on Danny's kid manipulating John just like his old man?

It may not live up to expectations, but can't wait for it and really glad they are back at it.

Gave up on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Ellie Kemper is awesome but I didn't care for any of the other characters.
Started watching Derek starring Ricky Gervais. I wasn't sure how to feel about it after the first episode. Gervais plays a 'simple-minded' guy and it wasn't completely clear at first if he was being serious or just poking fun. And one of the main co-stars is Gervais' buddy Karl Pilkington, who I couldn't take seriously either. But I'm now four episodes in and I'm hooked. It beats you over the head with the sentimentality at times but I really like the characters.
And fortunately, as a British series, it's two short seasons and a one-time special.

I started OldBoy (2003, not the Josh Brolin ver.), at 1:30 AM. I put it on with the intention of falling asleep. I didn't.
Pretty twisted story and worth the watch. I'm interested in the Brolin remake now that I've seen the original.
Eta- 7.5/10

Agreed. "Unbearable Kimmy Schmidt" would have been a great title if Kemper wasn't so great.

Dunno if its been mentioned but the wife and I have been watching a Spanish series called Gran Hotel. It's in spanish with english subtitles. The best way I can describe it is that it's like Downton Abbey, but imagine if interesting things and plotlines actually occured on Downton Abbey.
It takes place in a Spanish resort hotel in the early 1900s and like Downton Abbey, the plot primarily involves the upper class hotel owners and the lower class hotel maids and waiters. It has everything from serial killers to people with secret identities to family betrayals, and an Hercules Poirot inspired investigator trying to figure it all out.
Seasons 1 and 2 are on Netflix and season 3 is available "elsewhere" to be added to netflix later this year. We're nearing the end of season 3 and the story is pretty epic.

Cool, saw this and bypassed it.
That era doesn't grab my interest but neither did Peaky Blinders and glad I gave that a chance

Derek is one of the few shows my wife and I watched together. We both really enjoyed it.

Two episodes in and I really like it so far...and I'm not a big "super hero/comic" movie fan. Did collect comics for a couple of years growing up.

Daredevil is incredible. It's like if Arrow were on HBO and...better in pretty much every way. Darker, more violent, better acting and story and dialogue and cinematography.
I'm 4-5 episodes in. Big fan so far.

I like the look of the guy who's playing Kingpin but I'm not a fan of his emotional side being the highlight so far..guessing he gets more twisted as the season goes on, but right now I actually like his right hand man better as a villain. I'm not getting a menacing vibe from Kingpin, although I know he's more of an intellectual villain despite his size
