I need a new show...

Finished Fall of House Usher. I thought it was pretty good actually, kept me generally entertained through the season. I would recommend it if you can suspend disbelief are into the Halloween festivities.

It's cool how Flanagan can get the same characters coming back year after year for each of the Halloween specials.

Bodies on Netflix was a fun and unexpected mystery series.

[Atomic Wedgy]

I watched it on Apple.

Anyone watching Traitors Canada?

Or has watched any of the other Traitors seasons from other locations?

Wife and I are watching Lessons in Chemistry on Apple+.
Pretty good period piece (fictional) about brilliant female chemist in the... 50s?... chancing into meeting a very (insert highest word of positivity) male chemist.
That said - after a couple episodes - I correctly predicted the direction the show would take.
Will be interesting to see how it plays out.

Brie Larson is awesome. Couldn't have picked a better actress.

Unf, it's only a 68 on metacritic (which I would call "good, but just by a bit").

Anything sub 60 is unwatchable for us... but this one is "cute" so far - especially to watch with wife/gf.

Lessons in Chemistry - quite enjoying this one as well - a bit annoying that you have to wait for each episode weekly
but on the other hand motoring through LIONESS on Prime - which means it will be over too quick!
Recommend Lioness - its from the Taylor Sheridan - the guy who created Yellowstone.

Is this called Special Ops: Lioness?

Is this called Special Ops: Lioness?

Yes, one in the same.

Yes, one in the same.

Perfect.

I clicked on more details on Prime and didn't see Sheridan's name in the info anywhere... so I wanted to double check before I started something not so great.

I'll wait for more reviews on Lionness...
Metacritic critics average out to a 56.
Metacritic users average out to a 50.

The critics average is similar to Yellowstone.

But the users average is well below Yellow Stone.

Looking at the other Taylor Sheridan reveiws on this website - 1883 and 1923 are both in the upper 60's for the critics review.

[Axeman33]

I enjoyed Lioness myself. I didnt check the critics review or average before watching it. I watched the previews/trailers for it and it seemed like something I would like and I did. I also enjoyed Yellowstone, 1883 and 1923. So far, there hasnt been too many Sheridan shows I havent liked. Mayor of Kingstown is another excellent show from him. I recently saw a preview for a new show of his called Lawmen: Bass Reeves that looks right up my alley too. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt15399640/

The Gold on Paramount+ is awesome. I'm two episodes in and absolutely hooked. I also, love heist shows/movies, but this one is REALLY well done. It's also based on a true story of a gold heist. 10/10 thus far.

Have also been watching Life on Our Planet, the Netflix series about evolution. It's OK, but I don't think I'm the target audience, since I studied this stuff in school. Some of the CGI recreations are bad, but some of them work. The creative liberties about the behaviours of dinosaurs and other pre-historic animals are interesting. I'll give it another episode to determine if I continue on with the series, but it feels like there are other Docs/Docuseries more worthy of investment.

I reckon that I'll have to check that one out pardner.

Gen V - 8/10. If you like The Boys, you'll like Gen V. I would give it an extra point, but it felt like the acting left a smidge to be desired.

Loki S2 - 9/10. Started a bit slow, but was great at the end. Love the Loki character, love that the Marvel writing got back on track with this season. If the future MCU stuff is on par with Loki, Marvel is going to be fine.
