Rewatched Loudermilk this week and now I'm bummed nobody picked it up for a 4th season.

Selena is way underrated, IMO. She was perfect for the role and showed some chops. I'd argue she made me laugh more than the others at times.

Turns out I may have also learned about it here, because I asked the friend I thought had told me about it and he had no idea what I was referring to.

Veep is the funniest show in history. By a wide margin. In case anyone somehow didn't watch it.

I posted in the Irish wake thread, but I watched this one last night. Wikkid, as always, right on about the “smile on yo face” and “bounce to yo step”.

Started watching it for the 3rd time. So good. And now the Kamala comparisons make it even funnier. I forgot that the Senate was split 50/50 too. Every character is perfect.

Family and I watched Leave No Trace last night. Based on a true story about a father who is a veteran with PTSD and his daughter who live in the woods and have different ideas about integrating with society. Bit of a tear jerker and probably the best PG film I've seen in a long time.

This is next on my list after I burn through The Boys. I have 4-5 more of the current season to go and then I'll move on to this.
I noticed a terrible "industry" score for it (on Rotten Tomatoes) but a very high "public" score. Will be interesting to see how it is.

I had read the book, so since I knew where everything was headed, it didn't hold my attention that well.

The wife and I are watching Night Sky on Prime. JK Simmons is phenomenal. Now I read it's not getting picked up for a second season. WTF

Wife vetoed watching Love on the Spectrum. She's really big into TV as escapism, and the idea of a show built around one of her biggest anxieties holds no appeal. I'll probably watch it when she goes on vacation next weekEl Floppo said:

I can understand that. When a show or movie feels too real or relatable in a bad way, I'm not enjoying myself.

Just finished the first season of Mr. Inbetween. I liked it -- the main guy is a really interesting character, and the daughter is great, too -- although not much actually happens. Does that change in subsequent seasons or is it just kind of a vibe show?
BTW, at various points I had to turn on subtitles because I couldn't understand the accents.

Started watching The Bear tonight based on your love for it, despite this. Actually the hardest part is that wikkid would have LOVED this show. And also it's about Chicago Italian beef, with which we have such a deep connection given I sent him the Italian beef/sausage combo a couple of months before his passing, and he's declared it his favorite sandwich ever (see sandwich thread).
Setting aside all that, we're two episodes in and Mr. krista is loving it, as a chef. When someone said, "heard!" in the first episode, he claimed there was no show in history that had had that. Then he said, "I feel so validated and seen! But this is also super-####### stressful. That cockersucker left his ####### cigarettes on there and that killed me because it happens. And then a 'C"? A 'C"??? I got an A- once at the [restaurant deleted] and I was crushed. A "C"?? Did that mother####er make a salad with his hands or something?"
”Yeah, the walk-in is 50% for keepin stuff cold and 50% for crying when no one can see you.”

under the banner of heaven on Hulu, 3 episodes in and so far it’s been a good drama based on real events. Andrew Garfield is the lead actor and it also has Sam Worthington, Gil Birmingham and one of the Culkins.
A devout detective's faith is tested as he investigates a brutal murder seemingly connected to an esteemed Utah family's spiral into LDS fundamentalism and their distrust in the government.

Saw it in this thread pages ago and haven't been able to find it yet - who in here uses JustWatch or TV Time apps to keep track of their shows? Trying to figure out how to best use them and need a little guidance. So far all they seem to do is let you mark everything as seen/unseen and like/dislike...and that's about as far as the Youtube walkthroughs take you also. When does it start actually helping me? I'm 99% sure I'm just using it wrong

Andrew Garfield got a much-deserved Emmy nomination for this today. It was excellent. I appreciate that they strayed from the nonh-fiction format of the book to create an interesting character and dynamic, made it a more enjoyable watch IMO.

I am genuinely excited for HBO’s the last of us because the director involved did the mini series Chernobyl and it’s been so long since we’ve had a good post apocalyptic type show. I know video games haven’t translated well to movies but I feel like this one could be different. (Even if you haven’t played the video game)

The Serpent - Netflix
Burned through this over the last few nights. It's good. I recommend if you like crime dramas based on true events.
Couple of very minor negatives. Probably could have been told in 6 episodes instead of 8. A little too much of the flash back and flash forward sequences. A portion of the time I wasn't sure if was watching a past or present.
Loved the underdog story line of the low level Dutch Diplomat that kept the case alive over the course of a few years. Pretty good production. I didn't think there was anything cheesy about it.

I don't have an answer to your question, just want to comment that it's a good one. I'm in the same boat. For the most part, I only use JustWatch to search for shows/movies to see what platform they're available on and then I did click the button on a few movies and documentaries to notify me if/when they become available on any of my streaming services, but I haven't received any alerts to date.
So I'm also interested in what more I could/should be doing with it.

Anyone watch the new Bill Burr special on Netflix yet?

Infección - Peacock (free). Venezuelan zombie movie! Nothing to see here - just typical zombie stuff, nothing new. They made the strange choice to solve the whole movie while the main character was unconscious 2 minutes before the end of the movie… maybe they ran out of budget. The only thing that really worked here was a good sense of movement and mayhem - just everything breaking down everywhere they turned. Not worth watching, though.

The End? - Tubi. Italian zombie movie! Businessman stuck in an elevator with a partially open door during the breakout. Interesting setup - awful place to be for long, but safe from zombies. I squawked a but when he used his water bottle to clean some blood off of his hands - dude, you might wish you had some water to drink soon.
The setting was pretty dismal - he kept watching his coworkers get attacked while unable to help. All phone calls ended the same way.
Low budget, poor zombie makeup, but cool camera angles/lighting and decent use of shaky cam to hide it, something that is usually irritating but was good here. Zombies were hard to kill, no paper skulls. Weird drawn out final sequence, very Italian - they didn’t know how to end it.
I did like them acknowledging that shotguns kick and are deafening in an enclosed space.
Always cracks me up that every language uses OK - always sounds funny.
Worth watching.

I haven't yet but almost got tickets to it. Fell through.Juxtatarot said:
Not a streaming thing but if you have an opportunity to see anything you enjoy at Red Rocks or The Gorge, just do it. I've been to both and can't think of a negative to say about either.

Terminal List - Its gotten terrible reviews, but I've enjoyed it. You obviously have to put aside your critical thinking hat a bit. But watching Chris Pratt and Riggins do badass things in and around Northern California and Mexico is pretty fun. It could use a little humor once in a while. But otherwise, so far (I'm 6 episodes in), its been good.
