This is funny to me. I didn't have cable until I was in my late 30's. When I finally got hooked up I think I lost about a month of my life watching Star Trek reruns! There was one, somewhere, on some channel or another, seemingly around the clock. It was addictive.

It was for me though because of how many I had missed through the years. They sure did milk the bejeezus out of that franchise.

I will say the dark haired lady that was the temple chick, Vera....(pause for google-ry)....Katharine Isabelle, I would attempt at making babies with. Damn.

Wifey got me into it. Some good eye candy.

Don't bother with the final season, no matter how much you might want to do otherwise.

Captain Blood · 03-27-2019, 08:59 PM

Finished Narcos Mexico. Good series.

Starting Mr. robot. Great first episode!

Mr. Robot was intriguing for 5 or 6 episodes and then got boring. The fictitious entities and other elements made me lose interest quick. Seemed a little cheesy and too contrived.

Agreed. Wifey and I finished binge watching it.

Watched Love-Death-Robots and it was....meh. Some of the shorts were okay but nothing exciting overall.

Starting Schitts Creek.

Grumpy Old Man · 03-28-2019, 07:23 AM

Binged PINE GAP yesterday and the day before. Another Aussie series, espionage. Slow pace but very enjoyable.

Haywood · 03-28-2019, 07:41 AM

Have a few more episodes of the 2nd season of The Punisher. Kind of a weak story and could have probably been told in 8 episodes. But, can't get enough of The Punisher killing bad dudes! The new girl in the season has been pretty good, but her story is still a bit murky.

I didn't finish the first season, I lost interest in the story. I was thinking of trying season 2 to see if it's any better.

I loved the first season. The second felt really slow and drawn out, I wasn't hooked.

You probably won't like season 2 then as Shiza pointed out that it's a bit drawn out. Keep having to remind myself that it is a Marvel comic and that's why it tends to be a bit over the top.
