Ben Mendelsohn is the main character and does a great job. May remember him from the series Bloodline.

Highly recommend.

Great series, and excellent first episode. Still a little pissed at the finale though.

Really? I thought it was great all the way thru. What didn't you like about the ending?

The cliche ending that she got scratched, it just overall felt a bit uneven, not as strong as the beginning. Some things were also questionable. Its been a while but i just remember finding the ending to be only okay.

just started watching 'away' over the last 2 nights -- dramatic series about a mission to mars. we've knocked out the first 4 episodes and it's pretty solid. good character development but they do a nice lob keeping the plot moving along as well.

Gotcha. I still thought it was good overall

Was really looking forward to Ratched as the trailer and cast look stellar but the reviews pretty much panned it. Will still watch the first one to see if I like it. Maybe Sarah Paulson's fantastic acting will keep me from turning it off.

Started COBRA KAI with my family. It is extremely entertaining!
80s are making a comeback like totally!

It sucks the show got canceled. They already had Season 3 written, but since the shutdown delayed filming they just canned it.

We've watched through both seasons multiple times because it's so damn funny.

I hadn’t heard it was cancelled. That sucks. Maybe it can get reincarnated elsewhere (Netflix)?

Just finished final flight of challenger. Great documentary and eye opening about what really happened.

MackDivaS6 · 09-19-2020, 10:21 PM

Schitt’s Creek - hilarious and doesn’t set up as much of an “us vs them” sitcom feel as I had been expecting. It has been a long time since I really enjoyed a show this much. I’d put it right up there with Arrested Development among my all time fave comedies!

Finished it last night. It was decent. I would give it 3/5 stars. Not sure I would watch Season 2 if they greenlight it.

yeah, i probably rate it a little higher than you -- definitely not more than 4/5 -- and will give season 2 a shot.
