Great TV series - What are you watching now?

gunsmoker · 08-16-2022, 08:41 AM

I watched Sandman. What can I say? A+ for diversity if that's your thing, A for cinematography, special effects and acting, but when it comes down to the story, you will be like, "wait, what? The vortex does what to the realms?!" It's a pity so much money and effort is thrown at a project and a good story is just being overlooked or ordered to the director's cousin or some relative of a relative.

I feel the same way about Westworld. Past Michael Crighton's original story of season 1 and a downhill in searon 2, it's just a contrived hodgepodge of who is who and when in time, leading to a season where the character I wanted to watch the most was reduced to nothing just to take some focus in the last episode, while the rest of it was filled with Aaron and Thandiwe I couldn't care less about.

Agreed. I thought very good ending.

Don't have Apple TV at the moment but this looks very good. Apparently this was supposed to be the third season of American Crime Story with Sarah Paulson playing the lead role but it was eventually scrapped due to covid and production issues.

I can't believe Bobby Ewing stepped out of the shower and it turns out it's all just been a dream since season 2…….

Finished Trainwreck: Woodstock '99 on Netflix. The documentary covered the ill-fated Woodstock '99 Festival. It was a good watch. I'm also a sucker for a well done documentary.

The King of Queens tv series. Holy Mackerel.
Carrie notices Doug praying in front of tv with a football game on ''You were praying for the Jets to win?''
Doug 'You will not tell anyone about this''.

Is that who that old curly haired guy was?

We finished under the banner of heaven. A good series, not as good as the book. I would recommend, but maybe not if you're a Mormon.

Late to watch the Foundation on apple tv.

Good show if you don't try to overthink it. The first couple episodes were nonsensical with info that gets explained in later episodes. The overall story and visuals are well put together.

One of the top three funniest sitcoms ever made.
