Ugh, is this now how old I am? Yes, Twisted Metal was a very popular and fun video game in the late 90s and 2000s. It's kind of like Mortal Kombat but with vehicles.

I bolded the ones I've seen that I thought were really good and well worth the watch. I put italics on the ones that seemed like they should have been good, but they really didn't do much for me.
ETA: I also saw "The Old Man." Loved the first half of the season, didn't really love the second half nor the "twist." But, I intend to watch the second season.

fantastic. could not agree more.
it's heavy stuff, obviously.
and Peter Coyote vaulted to the front of the list of narrators for me after hearing him on this documentary.

and befitting baseball, Baseball was 386 hours
if you stream it now they have instituted a pitch clock so it is down to under 200 hours

Jeremy Clarkson's - The Greatest Raid of All - Full documentary - it's on regular YouTube. It's very well done, it's the story of an amazing, little known battle in WWIi history. . . that is unless you're a WWII history buff or military historian then you probably already know all about it. Either way, hearing Jeremy Clarkson narrate is still worth a tumble.

These are my favorites from that list. SMASH is really quick if that makes a difference - right around 3 hours total. You're also likely to hate it instantly if you're going to hate it.

Anybody that liked Paul Walter Hauser in Black Bird needs to see Kingdom. It also has one of my favorite actors in it, Jonathan Tucker and a surprisingly good Nick Jonas. Just a great all around cast.

The consensus here has been - zombie Kingdom bad, MMA family Kingdom good. MMA family Kingdom is 3 seasons, great show. I loved it. Several great acting performances in that show including a very good role for one of the Jonas boy band guys.

I’d also add Imperial Japanese Kingdom good.

This one looks good.
While looking into it, I learned there is a 4th Kingdom - "Kingdom is a British television series produced by Parallel Film and Television Productions for the ITV network. It was created by Simon Wheeler and stars Stephen Fry as Peter Kingdom, a Norfolk solicitor who is coping with family, colleagues, and the strange locals who come to him for legal assistance."

I watched zombie Kingdom all the way through just hoping for more outlandish hats.

Wait, I just realized that the feudal Japan Kingdom I am thinking of is a movie, along with Kingdom 2. My bad.

great choice... it's so, so good.

In all seriousness, after Mr. In-Between, go watch Kingdom (MMA) on Peacock.
It's the Kingdom to rule all Kingdoms.

Just started a gem of a show. Only 2 episodes in but really enjoying it.
It's called Irreverent and it's on Peacock. The only reason I know about it is one of my good friends here is friends with the lead actor (he's from St Louis).
Here's the trailer.
Rotten Tomatoes audience score is 92%.

Watched and while they were talking about the increased tourism they are seeing, I thought we could be in S3 if there is one. We are going to England in Feb and one of the stops will be Wrexham.

Foundation season finale today. Anyone still watching? It’s my new favorite hate watch. Lee Pace either needs to be asked to stop acting forever or an Emmy nomination.

There was another Aussie show in here recommended by someone (el floppo?) called class of '07 which is a solid watch on amazon prime. It takes an episode or two to warm up but the remaining 6 are solid. It's essentially a class reunion for an all girls school that turns into a survivor type show, I think the episodes are like a half hour each and they go by pretty quickly. I'm hoping for a second season as I enjoyed it enough.

Yeah I liked this as well. Kinda like a comedic take on Yellowjackets without the flashback element.
It’s Kiwi not Aussie but if you like class of ‘07 you’ll like Creamerie on Hulu as well. It’s so funny

S1 E7 of The Bear is some of the most intense TV I have ever seen, and it entirely took place in a kitchen.

Finished the second season of Foundation - 8/10.
I almost bailed after the first season was so confusing. But I really enjoyed the second season, especially the latter half, because I think the storyline finally clicked with me (even though I'm still not certain which parts are supernatural and which parts comport with actual "science" if you will). But, if you like stories like Dune, Star Wars, and similar deeply-investing sci-fi worlds where the story spans over decades and you may lose a main character or two, this show is definitely worth the watch.

Just got through the third season in a Six Feet Under rewatch. ******** I forgot how great the acting, writing, everything is on this show, particularly loving Frances Conroy's role as Ruth this time.
This is some heavy stuff though that hits A LOT harder this go around. I'm older now so all the death in the show is a bit more relatable I guess.

I've been meaning to give this a re-watch.
It's impressive how well HBO shows hold up. Of course they're great, but they also have great re-watchability (e.g. Wire, Sopranos) compared to other similar quality shows (Breaking Bad, Twin Peaks, etc.).

Watched most of s1, maybe into s2. Got very repetitive and didn't go anywhere for me so I dropped it. Mazi was a lot of fun.
Heard it kind of goes off the rails into S3 though.
S1 was good though.
