I rarely watch any TV and didn't know of this, but saw your post and decided to check it out. Incredibly fascinating. I vaguely recall the Night Stalker but knew pretty much none of this, and the two lead detectives are so interesting, too. Thanks for posting this!
Speaking of this, I tried to watch The Colony. I made it about 15 minutes in until I started doing something else. I dumped it. Hard pass.
The alien invasion one that I liked and recommended? Too bad...it's not perfect, but it's fun.
It was a funny show. I watched the whole thing on vacation at the end of the year. The only part that got a little long was something you’ll see at the end. Still funny but it dragged a little where the goat is. Liked the goat, just seemed like for a shortened last season that they spent too much time there. Still really enjoyed it all.
I never got all the way through it. May have to try and finish it one day. I think if you watched TWD, Laurie seemed like the same whiny person. She was the worst character in TWD and I think my dislike for her carried over.
I started the latest, S3 with Seth Rogan (he's a creator, producer and writer for the show iirc). Feels like a step down from the first two seasons so far, but still funny. No goat yet
. Just met Osama.
She's a little distracting from TWD, but my wife didn't mind her at all (also hasn't seen twd). Somebody mowed a lawn iirc, which gave me the giggles.
It’s still funny but definitely not the best season.I started the latest, S3 with Seth Rogan (he's a creator, producer and writer for the show iirc). Feels like a step down from the first two seasons so far, but still funny. No goat yet
Seems like it’s maybe a pretty different/unique show that may take a few episodes to get. The rotten tomatoes scores are really high for both the experts and regular folks. Sounds like maybe they should have done a better job getting out the word a little bit about what they are going for rather than just inviting people into a sorta bizarre setup.
I am into Ep3 - great stuff. I knew about this dude peripherally, but had no idea how ####ed up this was. Thanks for the suggestion!
The King SlayerWatched Shot Caller the other day.. Kind of a punch in the gut "one mistake can change your life forever" movie.. Not usually a fan of multiple flashbacks, but in this case it worked, and it stuck with me for a bit.
Thought it was pretty good. Liked the ending a lot.Watched Shot Caller the other day.. Kind of a punch in the gut "one mistake can change your life forever" movie.. Not usually a fan of multiple flashbacks, but in this case it worked, and it stuck with me for a bit.
Kind of in the same boat. Read a little bit of background and I hope to convince my spouse to finish the rest of the episode and give it another shot. I understand there’s a lot of artistic choices being made here and some mystery being established, but they definitely didn’t put much effort in making it very accessible early on.RC94 said:
I thought with the update, and people saying search was better, I'd be able to find it but no luck. 7 episodes in and liking it so far. Recap websites really help.
Just watched it. Truly excellent. While watching it I remarked it felt like a play and turns out it was.
Yeah. Mentioned that in the movie thread. The attention to detail in the writing really shows
Tons of content here, I'm working my way through Impossible Engineering now. They have such a large catalog of series I think the $5/month is a steal.
I remembered his name from that time, due to all of the satanism stuff. Did not know all of the back story or how extremely evil and violent he was. Excellent doc.
It was an excellent doc. He had a whole state terrified. I was very young at the time, but I remember his court proceedings as a kid. My first thought was this guy is messed up. Didn't know he died of cancer. He was supposed to get the gas chamber.
My first exposure to the story was the scene of him holding up the pentagram in court and saying "Hail Satan" shown in a "Rock and Roll is devil music" video at a church youth group. They pointed out how he wore an AC/DC hat. I still attend church faithfully but my son and I love AC/DC.
Nature vs nurture with these types as always interesting to ponder. Finding who made who could give us a lot of clues for some of these folks.My first exposure to the story was the scene of him holding up the pentagram in court and saying "Hail Satan" shown in a "Rock and Roll is devil music" video at a church youth group.

The AC/DC hat got him caught. And his Avia shoe prints. Everywhere. I remember that as well. A pentagram on his hand. He was proud.

We are the same (except NHL
) contemplating dropping Youtube (will miss the local channels, but $70+ a month...) We also get Discovery+ which is 90% of what my wife watches anyway... Not sure what to do here?
