Great TV series - What are you watching now?

Clark_Kent · 02-28-2021, 03:14 PM

Not sure if this has been covered but I started watching Industry. I saw the trailer when it was released last year and I wasn't up for it at the time. I saw that it got renewed for a second season so I decided to give it a go. It's been a decent watch so far.

We binged this over this weekend. We both liked it. Recommend checking out if you’re looking for something to watch. Stick with it through the first episode as it starts slow.

Firefly Lane on Netflix. Very entertaining, and very well done.

bosstones · 02-28-2021, 07:56 PM

True Detective on HBO Max. I would like to note that the app for HBO Max is garbage.

And what's sad, is that it's dramatically better than if you have/had HBO through the Hulu as an add-on. There wasn't even a search feature!

Captain Blood · 02-28-2021, 10:03 PM

Spoiler alert!

Spoiler alert!!

Finished season five of the expanse tonight. I can't believe I have to wait till next November or December to catch season six, rumored to be the final season.

I can't believe they killed off Alex!?!?

Season 1 and 3 were excellent, season 2 was trash other than Rachel McAdams.

Wife read that. We're on S2E4 right now. It is definitely more 'straight forward' as the writer supposedly attempted. At the moment, there's a lot going on with all the characters... presumably it will all somehow tie together. So far, not like S1 but not bad. It's a bit like an odd attempt at a darker Guy Ritchie film, though.

My primary gripe is login related. I created my account on a PC and then went to set up the app in my PS4. Got the code but couldn't log in via the PC that I had just created the account on (not sure why I logged out). Resetting my password did nothing even though I'd get confirmation that my password changed. I dont recall how I got past it.

Fast forward to Sat and I went to set up the app on an upstairs TV. Same issue. Somehow I managed to use Chrome on my phone to get it to work using the same password that was failing on the PC. Now it is fine on the PC. Any other browser on my phone would fail. Dolphin browser would give an error from HBO.

Gotten through ep 4 of Resident Alien, pretty funny show. The awkwardness of the character comes easy to Tudyk

Ahhh. We use an Amazon Fire Cube and haven't had any real issues with Netflix, Hulu, Prime, HBOMax, etc.

We did have to turn off the microphone since it sits near the center channel and would constantly interrupt cooking shows with, "Would you like to order a dozen eggs?"

Finally finished WandaVision today, great series, loved all the references to different sitcoms of the eras.

Im Loving this show. Just caught up to current. Wife isn't nearly as big of a fan.

TiMSport · 03-22-2021, 06:01 PM

I haven't watched the comedy animated series Archer in a while and started catching up on it with Hulu. It's hilarious!

I LOVE Resident Alien! It is such a good show...very funny.

I am also liking: Searching For Italy with Stanley Tucci
Bulletproof
In The Long Run

just to name a few more

TiMSport · 03-22-2021, 06:31 PM

I've been watching Searching For Italy with Stanley Tucci as well but I can't help but miss Anthony Bourdain. He was the best. Tucci is a bit too boring IMO.

stein_325i · 03-22-2021, 09:41 PM

Getting a lot of Jordan Peele vibes from this upcoming new horror show on amazon.

Wonder where he'll go when he's done searching Italy?

Maybe he'll never be done.

I don't know, perhaps he'll search for a clue?
How about Al Capone's vault? Lol.

Noneya · 03-23-2021, 10:22 AM

Just finished rewatching The Boys. Need season 3 now! Levels above every single other superhero themed series or movie made to date.

Murf993 · 03-23-2021, 10:36 AM

Been watching For all Mankind on Apple.....we're into the second season and it's worth the watch IMHO

Completely different shows. I mean Bourdain...for a time...just came across as a dick. I eventually found love for him & his show. Tucci's show is a personal journey of heritage & history. It seems boring because it is so personal vs Bourdain which was an expedition of finding the links between socio-political views and how food shaped it and vice versa. At least that is how it came across to me. I love both shows...very different shows....very different people
