My youngest loved it and is 14. My 17 year wasn't really into it.How old are your kids? I am trying to talk the family into doing this and have been shot down thus far.

kept finding myself waffling between "this guy is a complete sociopath" to "he's making some good points"pretty scary guy.
It's excellent. I would have binged it straight through if it weren't on HBO. Also just finished up "The Investigation" another subbed show. It's not Beartown good but worth a watch.If you can do subtitles, I'm really enjoying Beartown
Oh, wow, I didn't realize they made a series out of Beartown. Read the book a few years back and thought it was awesome.It's excellent. I would have binged it straight through if it weren't on HBO.

This was fantastic. Absolutely fascinating.I really enjoyed “Murder Among the Mormons” on Netflix. Crazy crime doc. Fascinated by the whole thing.
I'm somewhat of a crime doc junkie, and the fact that I never heard about this story kind of blew my mind. I was in HS in 85 and have no memory of this happening. These wild cases usually get the Dateline or 20/20 treatment at some point, but don't recall even seeing that. It was like I was watching a fictional movie.This was fantastic. Absolutely fascinating.
Only 3 episodes but really, really well done. Knew nothing about this going in.
Looks like it's a Frank Grillo flick. I'm in.bigbottom said:Boss Level on Hulu is super fun. Yes, it’s a ripoff of Edge of Tomorrow (and every other Groundhog Day type movie), but it’s done really well as a hyper-violent video game-ish take on the genre.
Totally whacky, but worth it imo.tonydead said:The Act on Hulu. Crime series and I think season 1 is a year old now? 2 episodes in and it might be the most bizarre thing I've ever seen.
Off topic, but Conan O'Brien's podcast (Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend) had Matthew Rhys on a few months ago. I loved The Americans, so I gave the interview a listen. Rhys is hilarious. Plus he has a Welsh accent that totally throws you off because he's always playing American characters. Well worth listening to the interview.Really liked Perry Mason. I'm a Rhys mark, hope they do a second season.
I was in charge of finding a movie for the family last Saturday, which is a total chore because after a year of being at home together, I feel like we've seen everything. I picked this, and by the end, my wife and teenage daughter were mercilessly making so much fun of the movie that I yelled, "CAN WE JUST FINISH WATCHING IT ALREADY." Needless to say, they hated it. I thought it was fine.bigbottom said:Boss Level on Hulu is super fun.

Ive watched 2 episodes and like it so far.jobarules said:Now I'm watching Doom Patrol. Weird show but I like it. Crazy Jane is fantastic!
The Americans is easily in my top 10 favorite series, maybe top 5. There wasn't one bad actor that I can remember. Rhys was otherworldly in his ability to convey frustration, tension, resentment, longing, and overall inner turmoil. The tension between him and Russell was just crazy. Can't say enough good things, and I really think Rhys did not receive the credit he deserved for his work in that show. Perry Mason was obviously not to that level, but he was still very very good in it.Off topic, but Conan O'Brien's podcast (Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend) had Matthew Rhys on a few months ago.

Ted LassoI just activated a free year of AppleTV+ due to a recent device purchase. Never had it before and don’t really know anything about it. Any TV, movie, or documentary recommendations?

The best TV comedy show of all time.I was too young to get Seinfeld when it originally aired, so I'm watching from the start on Hulu. I really like it and Kramer doesn't annoy me like he used to.
I canceled Apple+ and the only think I’ll have to figure out how to get is Ted Lasso when it’s back for season 2. Apple+ came with a new phone, but not enough to keep me paying for it.The General said:Def Ted Lasso. One of best shows last year.
Greyhound and The Morning Show were both decent.
I’ll prolly be the same when mine’s up.I canceled Apple+ and the only think I’ll have to figure out how to get is Ted Lasso when it’s back for season 2. Apple+ came with a new phone, but not enough to keep me paying for it.
Apple+ and HBOMax are my bottom 2. I have HBO via AT&T for free as well. I’ve got Hulu (w/ live), Netflix and Disney+, chances are that will be the “pay” channels for the foreseeable future. Also have Prime but like HBO, it’s free. Not planning to move cell plans so Prime and HBO will likely be there for the long haul, Prime absolutely will be there.I’ll prolly be the same when mine’s up.
I’ve been watching it as it came out from the beginning, recently the wife wanted to start so I’ve gone back with her an am rewatching from the beginning. It’s even better the second pass though. What a fun show.Need to get back into Yellowstone at some point.

we've also been watching since day 1 and love it..I’ve been watching it as it came out from the beginning, recently the wife wanted to start so I’ve gone back with her an am rewatching from the beginning.

we watch the Great British Baking Show. it's fantastic.
then my kids and wife love Chopped and a few other American cooking shows that are just terrible. faux drama. unnecessary faked trash talk. overly dramatic judges.
i'm all the way out on American reality tv shows that aren't Survivor
Finished Ted Lasso. Good stuff. It's like a cleaner more earnest version of 1st and Ten.Checking out the Ted Lasso craze on Apple TV+. Need to get back into Yellowstone at some point.
he was better on Queer EyeWhen i go shopping, I read all the product names in Ted Allen's voice.
Ruh roh.Tell Me Your Secrets (Amazon Prime)
I hated this. I watched the whole thing. I kept waiting for something to happen to make me care about the characters and it never came. It was a really convoluted story line. Lots of back stories that I kept waiting to have something to do with the plot and they never tied in. One positive, I liked the portrayal of the sociopath guy. (Hamish Linklater)
The payoff was pretty stupid IMO. Once they started going into "that stuff" I found myself a lot less interested in he show.Behind Her Eyes took a Loooooooonnnnnnnngggggggg time to get there but the payoff was worth it
It definitely took a turn to the unexpected. I think thats what was so mind boggling about it. If you stop after 4 episodes you think its a run of the mill Lifetime type show.The payoff was pretty stupid IMO. Once they started going into "that stuff" I found myself a lot less interested in he show.
Never happened to meAbout 50% of the time when I am watching The Expanse on Prime Video (almost done with Season 1), I get German subtitles below on-screen text. It is SO WEIRD and sometimes blocks stuff out. Glitch in the matrix?

Prime Video random German subtitles?
I've got subtitles set to English language but disabled, and I'm getting a random German description while watching The Expanse. There will be some sign in a scene that days "warning" and all of a sudden a subtitle appears saying "achtung" and I can't seem to get it to stop.
It doesn't seem to happen every time there's English text in a scene, just every so often. Is this happening to anyone else? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here.
