Barry last episode this season, wow. Don’t know where this will go in season 4. One more month till the last of Saul.
OT: TMB TV/Streaming Shows Club: Thread for streaming/TV show discussion…
- Thread starter Midnighter
- Start date
It pretty much had me when I saw it was being filmed in New Mexico and Monument Valley. Also that Zahn McClarnon was a lead role. Loved him in Longmire.
Very underrated actor.
He was also great in season 2 of Fargo, Westworld, and Barkskins
Yeah, I watched E1 last night and it's off to a solid start. Has that "Wire" feel to it.
Started The Old Man on FX with Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow. Two episodes in and terrific already. Also What We Do In The Shadows is back starting July 12.
Finally started watching it and am 4 episodes in. Pretty interesting. I live in Bmore and had heard rumors about some of that stuff and locking guys up for sitting on their stoop was a definite thing under O'Malley.
Yes that was the PSU game playing in the background.
Jon Bernthal has the Bawl'mer accent down pat. Give a listen the next time he says "Blair" road....LOL. When I first moved here I was lost for about 20 minutes trying to find "Blair" rd because thats how someone said it to me...Its Belair Rd.
Its not as good as The Wire but its very good.
Baltimore's Mayors, Police Comish and City Council have been an epic failure for a long time.
Interesting...I like it.Obi-Wan series:
Snooze fest. Bad storyline, bad cast, bad acting.
Bridges is 73, coming off chemo, and he’s doing these intensely physical fights, over five minutes screen time. Good acting, John Lithgow really good.
Finished S6 of Peaky Blinders - my spoiler free review is it's a little sluggish in parts with a bit of meandering, but lots of tragedy and of course, a lot of the Peaky Blinders doing what they do best. Some new additions to the cast - namely Oswald Mosely's mistress/fiancee Lady Diana Mitford (played by Amber Anderson) - are fantastic. Those two (Mosely and Mitford) are just diabolical; really, two of the best villains I've ever seen. Part of it is that they're so f*cking charming. Their vision for a fascist United Kingdom is terrifying and they are perfect adversaries/colleagues for Tommy. Still, the ending is bittersweet - some things are resolved, but much isn't, and since there will supposedly be a movie, I'm hopeful we'll get a 'true' ending to the series so Tommy can finally rest.
Still, one of my alltime favorite shows and casts.

Awesome! What part? I love the Abiqui area but am going to Las Cruces in the fall to look for possible retirement houses.
Sandia Park near Paa-ko. I like Abiqui as well. Haven’t been to Las Cruces yet. We liked Alamogordo, Taos and the ABQ area. Great state.
The Old Man on FX with Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow is really good so far. Two episodes are available so far, with episode 3 coming out on Thursday night.
You hated the series but watched all of it?Obi-Wan had its finale, thank goodness. That was an unnecessary show. I would have preferred more Jar Jar!
Like watching a car crash I guess. Had hopes it would improve but did‘not.You hated the series but watched all of it?
I didn't think it was nearly as bad as you. It certainly was/is better than anything on regular TV with the exception of Dark Winds.
Watched the final episode. I still liked it better than you but yea they don't need a season 2.
The light saber battle though was pretty good.
Dr. Strange dropped last night on Disney+. It was visually stunning but thought that the story line was hard to follow and convoluted.

Thought I’d ask if anyone is watching The Old Man. So far i think it’s excellent. Jeff Bridges still has his fastball
I thought I saw a discussion on this earlier. I caught some 1 in the middle. I liked itv
Have enjoyed it as well and Dark Winds I believe is the other I recently started.
The Bear, FX/HULU. About a young chef taking over his dead brother’s Italian beef restaurant in Chicago. Half hour episodes, great acting and killer soundtrack.
Just started this - loving it so far. Lot of lip service to foodies but also pretty authentic.
Unfortunately, she's pretty dumpy in that series.
And she's also the "victim" of what I consider to be, perhaps, more annoying than car chases ... and that's turning "fighting within one's own mind" into actual acted out narrative. Otherwise, Doom Patrol is excellent, can't miss TV.
Umbrella Academy is OK. We haven't finished the third season yet ... almost, but not quite ... I just find myself legitimately not liking most of the characters. And, I'm just not buying the whole Ellen/Elliot Venya/Victor thing. Sorry. She went from a whiny grown woman to an 11 year old tiny boy who acts just like a whiny grown woman? I dunno ... it's not like she was acting like a masculine woman before, and now that she "transitioned," you get it ... she was like the ultimate overly-feministic tiny emo lesbian chick prior and it's virtually impossible to envision her as a dude. It's like trying to watch Dwayne Johnson wearing a wig of long hair, but acting like an over-the-top tough guy, and having him claim he's a chick.
C’mon - Klaus is likable! Don’t disagree with much you wrote, but I’m a lot more lenient than you it seems
.
I just started Yellowstone this week. Pretty good show. I'm about to finish season one.
Was Lip service a pun here? If not, pretty ironic.
I’m enjoying Blackbird on Apple TV with Taron Egerton, Ray Liotta, Greg Kinnear, and, as the serial killer, Paul Walter Hauser (Richard Jewell movie). Based on a true story about a drug dealer who gets an opportunity for release by going into a forensic prison to try and get the goods on a possible serial killer.
for the wrestlers on board or the board, I've been watching Team Foxcatcher which is different from the movie. This is a documentary, with interviews of the real people involved. DuPont, Schultz, his wife etc. Really interesting especially if you like college/Olympic wrestling at all.
I am a half way through Dopesick on Hulu. Great series with a great cast. I would easily put this in my top 10 ever.
