I need a new show...

[blayze]

Started watching Manifest on Netflix - decent show, 7/10

Recently finished Snow Piercer. Enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would. 8/10

Wife & I will definitely have to try these.

re: Yellowstone, I've heard that it has gained strength with seasons... and I saw several NHL players list it in their "what were you watching during COVID" segment. Articles on internet suggest it got lost by viewers after a sort of low-rank of the opening season. But I love to hear these reviews. And I'm a huge Costner fan. He fits certain roles SO well.

re: Halt & Catch Fire. I admit, I didn't give this show a chance because there was a few start-up/internet/tech shows around 2014 and I chose to jump on Silicon Valley and something else.
Unfortunately, I snob my nose up at any shows south of 70... so I think I missed giving this show and Yellowstone (s1: 54) a chance when they came out.
But this show has Metacritic rankings of 69, 73, 83, 92 from s1 to s4... so that show amazing incline!


Thanks!


Wife and I just finished a Swedish show called "The Drowning" - had to sign up for some streaming service. It was OK... 3.5/5 stars. You have to watch subtitles.

I've watched Bo Burnham's "Inside" three times now! Oh man, I love this guy. The little inclusions of his real world in between takes... it really gets you. It makes the rest more real. Sort of the whole "what was left on the cutting room floor". Probably my favourite thing I've watched in the past year or two. In between watchings, I went back and watched his Netflix special from 2015/2016 ish. Younger Bo Burnham, good stuff. Same room/door in end take, I believe.

My 11 year old kid has been into zombies... so I'm rewatching Walking Dead with her late at night. Good father/daughter bonding... and nice to be able to say "You're going to want to catch this next part!".

Looking forward to the new Ted Lasso, s2. Nice easy watch - will lace in well with Summer Olympics in the next few weeks.

Have you checked out Black Summer on Netflix yet? I just started it and while I'm not a big zombie show fan, I'm actually enjoying this one so far.

Thanks! We may try it out.
I feel like she's burning out on TWD - near end of s3... which is roughly where I burned out on that show.

We recently watched Zombieland and Zombieland2 movies together - fun bonding!
The violence and gore doesn't bother her.

We watched the first episode of a STARZ show called "Ash vs Evil Dead" last night.
I don't love the stand-up doggie-style sex scene in the first 10min (to which my daughter said "Wow - what's up with the butt spanking?!"... but after that, she was super into it.
Sort of one of those quirky, black comedy, horror shows that doesn't take itself to seriously... really liked episode 1.
The fight scenes are really fun to watch!

is netflix worth it ? we recently bought a few roku's for the non smart tv's in the house and utilize our Crave account thru Bell . I like crime docs but feels like I've gone through everything that crave offers in that regard.

I don't watch them myself but from what I can judge by my wife's viewing habits, Netflix literally has an infinite amount of crime docs.

Lots of crime docs on Netflix for sure. I know because thats one thing the wife and I watch a lot of too.

“Mare of Easttown” Pretty enjoyable slow burner dark crime drama, just how I like them. I haven’t seen Kate Winslet in anything since Titanic many moons ago. What an incredible actress she is. Almost feels like she’s not acting but living her role. So good!

Started to watch Bosch season 7. If you’re a fan of a show, you know what to expect. Nothing beats season 1 but still very enjoyable crime drama.

Want to check out “Black Summer “. Not a biggest fan of zombies but the cold winter settings add that dark and grim atmosphere that may pull me in

Mr Mercedes.

Stuck with it through the initial 15 mins and now I’m hooked.

I'll second Manifest, after a few episodes you get hooked, decent.

[Axeman33]

Just finished Season one of Black Summer on Netflix last night. I'm normally not a big zombie guy but this show kept me hooked from the start. On to season two this weekend.

[Feenom]

Just ended S1 of “See”. Pretty good, Momoa is a savage in this. Now starting Yellowstone. So far so good.

[Grapes]

Enjoy Yellowstone. Stick with season 1. Then it becomes can’t miss. Finishing up season 3 tonight. Cheers

Gangs of London, Resident Alien, Sweet Tooth, the Bodyguard, Two Weeks to Live, Bloods, the Boys, Loki, Lovecraft Country, Noughts & Crosses, What We Do in the Shadows, Truth Seekers, and Watchmen are my favourite shows these past few years and I recommend them all. <3

Thankfully Virgin River is finally back so my wife can get lost in that for a week or so.
