Got 3 free months of Apple+, what are the "must" sees? Ted Lasso seems apparent, Severance is likely. As long as it takes us sometimes to watch a series that might be all we get in 3 months but I'm sure there's other worthy shows.

Lasso and Severance for sure.

It’s a mixed bag after that. I’d probably say Blackbird and Shrinking as most likely to be enjoyable for the average viewer. Foundation is good if you’re into sci-fi (but man is it a marathon).

I did really enjoy Platonic as a like a guilty-pleasure, can't fall asleep so need something light to watch type show.

I love Mythic Quest

 

[wlwiles]

Binging Better Call Saul for the first time. Currently in the back of S3 and I'm already feeling the dread of only having 3 more season to go after this. Such a good show, and not at all what I expected it to be (so far). Really need Vince Gilligan to go ahead and create another show ASAP.

Finished BCS last night. Any chance while I was in my binge cave that Gilligan has announced a spin-off Kim Wexler series yet?

 

[CGRdrJoe]

Special Ops Lioness on Paramount plus has been decent so far, it's a Taylor Sheridan spy/terrorist show staring Zoe Saldana, Nicole Kidman, and what feels like every other actor from all of Sheridan's other shows. That said, so far it has had just the right amount of action and plot to keep me interested in it after 4 episodes.

Mythic Quest, the first 2.5 seasons of For All Mankind, and the Afterparty are great.

 

[Pip's Invitation]

Whelp, just finished S2 E6 of The Bear and, uh, I think I need some therapy. That was intense.

Episode 7 is your therapy (and Ritchie's). Seriously.

Episode 4 might have been one of my favorite episodes in all of TV. What a pleasant, lovely joy ride with Marcus.

I felt on edge, waiting for the other shoe to drop, and was so happy that it never did. Joyous. Mr. krista also thought the scenes with him and his "boss" in Copenhagen were very true to a real kitchen.

I really need to watch this show but I spend much of my spare time listening to playlists created by middle-aged dummies.

I finally got started on this. Watched the first two episodes of S1 last night.

I'd add Slow Horses to the list.

Has anyone watched Hijack yet? That looks good. And Idris Elba is awesome.

I started it and lost interest after the 5th or so episode. It's not bad. I'll probably finish it at some point.

I love Slow Horses because Gary Oldman is so damn funny.

Watched a few episodes. It was ok but didn't quite grab me to the point of needing to keep watching it over other things.

 

[El Floppo]

Don't sleep on See.






because it's all kinds of amazing awful. I love it. but yeah- it's really awful.

 

[Dan Lambskin]

AHS - outside of S1 every season started promising and then went off the rails by like episode 3

 

[BlackCrowes]

Don't sleep on See.

well stated. my GF got into it, and somehow I got semi-hooked. We had to finish it. Neither of us could figure out why.

Wife and I both thought “The Morning Show“ was pretty decent.

”Shrinking“ was an easy watch.

 

[falguy]

I've watched the first 4 episodes of Shelter on Prime. A typical Harlan Coben show with tons going on and every single person is hiding something. It's been an enjoyable ride so far with some excellent performances by the young actors.

 

[PIK95]

Watched Blackbird. The first two episodes were phenomenal. The last four were solid, but pretty dark. Well done mini.

 

[Tick]

Ahsoka started. I liked the first two episodes.

I'm not loving Reservation Dogs so far this season. Only one of the episodes had the res characters I like most. The other stuff has been well made and interesting, but save that for the anthology spinoff.

 

[whoknew]

Hijack - I know a lot of folks didn't like it much in this thread. I binged it this weekend. I thought it was pretty fun. Not amazing, but Idris Elba doing cool Idris Elba things and a lot of tension. Good show to just enjoy and not think much about.

 

[Capella]

The Bishop Sycamorr documentary on HBO is INSANE. Oh my god.

 

[shuke]

I thought Black Bird was pretty good. Will probably lead me to reading the book it was based on.

I like it but that last episode was filler to the max. Ugh

 

[Skipdog77]

Hulu has cancelled "The Great" after 3 seasons. While the Season 3 finale tends to work as a series finale, I am going to miss this show. It was so delightfully off-the-rails at times. NIcholas Hoult and Elle Fanning were both fantastic.

https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/the-great-canceled-hulu-3-seasons-1235578270/

This is SO not Huzzah! Is Boozah! a thing? If not, it should be..at least in this case.

 

[3 hour lunch]

3 episodes into Silo (Apple). Definitely has my attention.

 

[shuke]

Haven't watched the finale yet but the new Justified has been mostly garbage.

 

[BeTheMatch]

Haven't watched the finale yet but the new Justified has been mostly garbage.

Just fast forward to the final 10 minutes.

 

[GroveDiesel]

I’m easily amused, but I’m through 3 episodes of OnePiece on Netflix and really enjoying it. Never read the anime or whatever so I have no idea how it compares, but this is lighthearted and fun so far.

 

[TripItUp]

this and Hard Knocks are the best thing going in terms of new content.

Football and the fall shows need to get here stat.

 

[MrJimiT]

Oh my that ending of new justified was terrible

Overall I'd give the season a C- and that is probably being generous.

The last 9 minutes? A+

Spoiler

setup for next season?

Agreed with the average to blah grading on the season. I enjoyed watching even though there were some painful characters and painful situations that I wished were different.

Also agree on the A+ final few minutes!!

 

[McBokonon]

I wouldn’t give the final few minutes that high of a grade. Definitely felt like a toss-in for nostalgia and to basically set the stage for another season if they think they can make money off it. C- for the season but only because I like Justified and was glad to see Raylan again. If this was the only season I ever watched, I’m not sure I wouldn’t have bailed early on.

That said, I’d definitely watch another season if they base it on that ending.

This was my first dive into Justified.. Guess I need to find time to watch the original as I was not overly impressed.

Then again, I HATE shows where the antagonist is immune from anything related to getting caught( walking out of a mob house unscathed was ridiculous) so that left a bad taste.

BTW.. I assume the guy at the end had to do with the original series??

 

[Ridgeback]

Telemarketers has been solid, if not sad.

Didn’t have high hopes going in but lovin it. We watched the anime series as a family when the kids were younger. Only 3 episodes In myself and they’re doing a great job with it IMO. This is a bit darker and more mature, which is cool. Also more concise as the anime had a ton of filler. We’re having fun reliving the story.

 

[Clown Car]

I watched Barry on the suggestion in here and it was really interesting to me.

I found a show called hung. Some of you might like it.

Watched Adam sandlers “you are so not invited to my bat mitzvah” on a whim and it was a really cute look at a girls coming of age.

Looking for something new.

 

[3 hour lunch]

Just finished Silo. A little long but interesting and sets up a 2nd season nicely.

 

[Yankee23Fan]

Wheel of Time is ok I guess.

OK, that was good, and promising for the future. But this season sucked.

it’s in the same category of watchable and well acted, but unremarkable for me. It’s got more domestic drama than Jack Ryan so my wife likes this one a lot better.
