I'm almost to the point of saying Mobland has already jumped the shark.

I was coming here to say that it's getting better. Who's the mole? Who's the other brother? When will Harry really deal with Eddie? When will Kevin snap? Lots of tension building up.

Yes, some of the things that happen are far-fetched, but it's still entertaining.

Spoiler

Were they implying that Eddie is actually Conrad's son, with Kevin's wife, not his grandson?

Yeah I guess maybe you're right. Maybe the good parts are getting better while some of the far-fetched stuff is getting worse. lol.

Duster on HBO Max, it has peaked my interest after the first episode.

brief synopsis:

The current trend in prestige TV is to be topical—to weigh in on contemporary issues, peel back untold history, or metaphorically reflect on the woes of modern life. Max’s new crime thriller Duster has a bit of that in its DNA: It’s interested in exploring what it was like to work for the FBI in the 1970s if you weren’t a white man. But that’s not the primary drive of the series. No, the main point of Duster is to cut loose and have some retro-inspired fun. The result is a premiere that’s confident, a little goofy, and a whole lot groovy.

That might not be what people expect from a series that reunites co-creator J.J. Abrams with Lost breakout Josh Holloway. Though Sawyer is certainly on the brain here, there are no echoes of Lost’s mystery-box structure, nor the genre approach of co-creator LaToya Morgan’s work on Into The Badlands and The Walking Dead. Instead, the series tries to evoke the vibe of a show made in the 1970s, not just set there. That makes it a little bit Starsky & Hutch, a little bit Police Woman, and a little bit Sheba, Baby. In an era when The Pitt has made old-fashioned medical dramas cool again, Duster wants to do the same for old-fashioned action-crime series.

Didn’t see it mentioned already but The Eternaut on Netflix.

It’s post-apocalyptic series from Argentina. Only six episodes but it’s been renewed for a second season already.

Without giving anything away (only an episode and a half in so far and don’t know much myself), but it’s set during the summer and one night lights go out and a snow falls and anyone caught outside dies. Not sure what’s going on yet.

You won't know what's going on at the end of Season 1 either.

I really enjoyed the show, though, and with subtitles the audio track (Spanish or Italian) and character actions were in sync. A lot of human interactions in a preposterously-difficult time and so much of it was believable. Good show.

New Earnhardt documentary

I don't think Tom Segura is very funny at all, but I find Burt Kreischner even more unfunny.

You should probably stay far away from the Two Bears One Cave podcast.
Segura is ok, but Bert Kreischer is awful.

I've caught bits and pieces. I've seen some funny bits but Bert is mostly insufferable. Tom has funny moments but he often comes off as arrogant. Meh.

Tom is good enough. Burt is Cable Guy level unfunny.

Cable Guy the movie is great.

Did you mean Larry the Cable Guy?

None of them are Jeff Dunham level unfunny

 

[Nick Vermeil]

The trailer for Task on MAX with Mark Ruffalo looks pretty damn good. Will watch.

Looks like classic prestige HBO and a must watch for me.

Adding the ventriloquist dummies raises (lowers?) the unfunny bar by a lot.

Just binged the latest season (#2) of Black Snow. It’s a cold case / missing person show in Australia starring Travis Fimmel. He’s great in it. This season was just 6 episodes so it’s a pretty quick watch, and it’s a show my wife and I like. I believe it’s AMC, so we watch it on Prime.

You had me at Travis Fimmel.

If it's unhinged Travis Fimmel... it moved.

Yeah he’s definitely got some demons in this character. Nothing over the top, but he’s got some good crazy there.

Still really like Your Friends and Neighbors. Good mix of drama and comedy.

Yep, it's getting better and pulling me back in. Looking forward to last two episodes and how they close out the season.

And to answer your spoiler question, the answer is yes. Conrad is a weirdo. Go Ritchie!
