I luv the sci-fi stuff as well. This show is like nothing I’ve ever seen, the 1st season was awesome. Like many other shows went downhill from there but still worth it

Watching Bad Monkey on Apple TV+. I usually enjoy Vince Vaughn and this show highlights him. It’s an easy watch that I’ve found really entertaining.

We're enjoying it as well although it's a bit quirky and might not be for everyone. If you've read any of Carl Hiaasens books you might really enjoy it though.

Going to start Slow Horses season 4 tonight. We really enjoyed the first 3 seasons. Great cast and great Brit drama.

Tried this a few months back, decided to go out back and watch my grass grow instead.

Unprisoned was really good.

This isn't a series, but a "one and done".

Inside Job, released in 2010. It's an analysis of factors that drove the 2008 financial meltdown.

Spoiler alert: Every one of the basshats that drove their companies (and the economy) off of a cliff..... didn't lose a dime or go to jail.

They still have their Hampton's mansions, super yachts, escorts, jets, and cars.

The amount of weaseling over very straightforward questions is beyond olympic caliber.

If you're not actively screaming at the screen and wanting to be first in line to pull the lever on the guillotine, you weren't paying attention.

We started watching ”From” which is on prime. Currently 2 seasons and 3rd season coming this month. I’m not totally sure how I feel about it. I would say it’s pretty good, but they like to advertise it’s from the makers of Lost and that was a total cluster fuck and having finished the first 2 seasons I get the feeling this may be going the same way. It’s one of those shows that sucks you in with a mystery and then never solves the mystery just deepens the mystery and ads fluff.

Still watched 2 seasons though.

In a HUGE fan of FROM! I never watched LOST.

I like the overall concept and creepiness of this show. But I do hope they reveal some "logic" as to what these creatures are and if this town is another Dimension or WTF...

Yep, great light watching with plenty of dry ironic humor.

That was the issue with Lost. Started super cool and mysterious like From but I guess the writers wrote themselves into a hole they couldn’t get out of and after a couple of seasons it just became sooooo bad.

I hope they learned from their mistakes because we are enjoying From so far.

Don't hold your breath. I enjoyed Lost. And many other similar works: The Leftovers, Mrs Davis, The OA...

These types of shows tend to be more about the journey than the destination. I have no problem with that.

Looks like Bosch Legacy will end with the upcoming season. I suppose I prefer it to end one season too early than one or two seasons too late. It's been a good run for the franchise.

Yeah, possibly worst ending ever.

I read most the books. Enjoyed them. Show was very true to the source material. Noir, low-key, dry.

Funny that Lost and Bosch both just came up and both starred Titus Welliver in main roles (he was The Man In Black in Lost). Also, he was good in Deadwood.

Lost was fucking terrible, the moment the grey mist thing appeared it went to shit.

[RickFLM4]

We watched the Perfect Couple limited series (apparently to new format for a lot of stuff). Wife liked it. I didn’t and really didn’t like seeing “Ray Donovan” sing and act like he did.

So, like 4th episode first season. I am sensing you didn't like the show, even though you are beating around the bush a bit.

[RickFLM4]

I see The Old Man is back for season 2. Will be checking that out.

Eek!

Funny thing was that the guy on Ray Donovan who played an Israeli, was not. And Ray actually has Israeli roots, but played an Irishman.

I also saw somewhere that Pablo Schreiber (Pornstach from OITNB) is Liev Scheiber's half-brother.
