Great TV series - What are you watching now?

Anyone like Disclaimer starring Cate Blanchett? The pilot episode couldn't capture my interest.

In contrast, I really liked Sweetpea.

I'm likely late to the party on this one but I finally started The Old Man. I'm really liking it so far. Jeff Bridges is fantastic in this series. John Lithgow is great as well. I'm also in love with Dave and Carol.

Looking forward to season 2.

It already started and it’s good.

My wife got me to watch the first episode of Murder in a Small Town. Atrocious. Told her she’s on her own if she wants to watch any more of it.

In contrast, Ozark started out dark and twisted from Pilot and they carried it through to the series finale.

IDK man I think Breaking Bad was dark from the start. Dude kills a man in the pilot for crying out loud

Speaking of Breaking Bad, I'm rewatching Better Call Saul again... really an astounding show honestly, bet TV writing in my book.

The Diplomat season two hits October 31st. I'm looking forward to this.

Alfisti · 10-15-2024, 09:51 AM

No idea how you can watch better Call Saul again, good show but ACHINGLY slow. Watch it on FFWD I guess.

I agree with that. Honestly the start was pretty funny. The scene where they try to dissolve the bodies in the bathtub and the whole thing comes down. That’s some funny shit right there.

It definitely got less funny. At some point maybe season 2 or 3 I had to take a break from it because it just got depressing. Really good show though.

Bathtub was all Jesse.

Just discovered The Irrational, just started the second season on NBC. Interesting series...!

Murf the Surf · 11-01-2024, 03:56 PM

Lioness season 2. I'm 2 episodes in and it's a solid show.

Murf the Surf · 11-01-2024, 03:57 PM

This is a decent watch, season 2 and so far so good.

Thanks for reminding me.

I just finished the six episodes of season two and I need a drink, it’s a crazy car chase news story meets the girls of Mean Girls drama. The last five minutes is strangely fun and fascinating and season three is going to be Miss Congeniality meets The West Wing.

flybigjet · 11-02-2024, 09:43 PM

Simone Biles Rising is absolutely outstanding.

She's the GOAT for a damn good reason.

My wife is a former Elite gymnast, and I don't have a clue about gymnastics and we both *really* enjoyed it.

tcphoto Which show?

tcphoto · 11-03-2024, 08:02 AM

Sorry, The Diplomat with Kerri Russell.

Murf the Surf · 11-06-2024, 02:42 PM

Read all the books, and they were excellent. I also watched the movies and I can't not hear Morgan Freemans voice when I read the books.I definitely have to watch this.

Can confirm, both seasons are great. Pacing is really good. Firefights remind me of the Sicario movie.
