Guys I need recommendations on the next TV series I should start watching.

[Warhead36]

Just finished Peacemaker. Hysterical show.

[Bang]

Settled on The Last Kingdom on Netflix and it's alright I guess.

And "The Tourist" on HBO... which is also alright, but a little more alright than "last Kingdom"..
Wife and I have been watching "Inventing Anna", and she likes it a lot more than me. I hate pretty much every character in it, and their lifestyle.. ugh.

Bel-Air. A serious take on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. 

[Chew]

Yakuza vs the Tokyo PD in the late 90s.  Ken Watanabe stars and Michael Mann is heavily involved behind the scenes.  Filmed entirely on location in Japan.  

 

Tokyo Vice.  March 7th.  HBO MAX. 

 

 

[The Evil Genius]

I think you mean April 7th. 😁

 

I was stoked it was out at first.. BTW this was supposed to be a movie with Daniel Radcliffe and got changed to a show with Ansel Elgort (Baby Driver)...

Is it any good? Every clip of it I've seen makes it look cringe AF and absolutely awful.

It’s good. Probably the most interesting character is Geoffrey.

Has anyone watched Piece of Her or In From the Cold on Netflix? Are they any good?

I have watched both. They are both "good." There are times when one just isn't getting "great" from Netflix because they've seen all the great stuff and are waiting for certain movies/shows to get released. This is one of those times for me. I'd say In From the Cold was the better of the two, but they are both what I call "holdovers." They'll hold you over until something great comes along.

My wife and have 5 more episodes to go to finish this last season.

 

Whoever was responsible for character costume and make-up design for the show deserves a flogging.

 

The story transpires over a course of 25+ years…. and absolutely no character has aged a day since episode 1. 2 kings grew beards… that was it.

 

On the other hand, kudos to the actors and actresses who after 5 years/seasons, haven’t changed a lick.

 

”Destiny is all!” Well, mostly… at least some of times…. on occasion, well not really… Brida WTF is your problem?!?

Finished Upload Season 2. Honestly a drop off from Season 1. And fewer episodes too.

‘Cobra Kai’ Creators Say Season 5 Will Have “A Lot Of Insanity”; More Seasons “Already Planned Out”

“The bad guys won in Season 4, so there’s going to be some hell to pay, whether there’s more hellfire or retribution,” added co-creator Josh Heald, who says in the next season “there’s lot of people punching each other, kicking other, but the story is going to go in a new way that no one can possibly predict.”

 

When does Cobra Kai hang up its belt?

“We have an end in mind,” adds co-creator Hayden Schlossberg, “How many seasons it takes to get there, we don’t know. We’re enjoying making it so much.”

He added, “If it gets tiring to us, we’ll stop before that; we have a few more seasons already planned out.”

Netflix will decide that. Wouldn’t surprise me if Season 5 is it.

Considering it took so long to get season 2 out… doesn’t bode well. Wife and I watched season 1 way back, we enjoyed it… planned on watching season 2 after finishing The Last Kingdom (1 episode left).

I’ve never been into sci-fi. I’ve watched almost all the Star Wars movies - damned if I can remember anything or follow any plot lines - and I was a casual watcher of Star Trek Next Generation - I watched whenever I found it on TV.

 

But Im really enjoying The Expanse. The first few episodes are a bit of a slog… but the 1-hr episodes pack in so much. So many episodes in each season I thought could have been season finales. Highly recommend.

[Spaceman Spiff]

I love Cobra Kai but it's starting to become a parody of itself a little bit.  

 

True Detective has yet to capture the Woody/McConaughey magic that it had in the first season.

Star Wars isn’t a bad franchise. I’m entertained. But I don’t get the level of fandom of any fiction.

[Chew]

It's been four years.  Season 3 drops Thursday 

 

if you don't watch this show, start watching this show.

15 minutes into this Lakers show on HBO and I am absolutely hooked.  This is ****ing awesome. 

 

They nailed the look/feel of the era.  And the way it's filmed in parts it's like a documentary of the era.  But Jerry Buss and Magic Johnson are breaking the 4th wall and it's great.  

The portrayal of a Jack Kent Cooke is chilling tbh.

Almost all doesn't count. If you have Disney+ you get the order to watch from online and watch them in that order. Then you will have a better understanding of the plot line. It is no different than watching a war between two superpowers. Think of Putin as Darth Vader and Romania as the rebels.

And who are the Orcs? 
 

It’s nice to enjoy a little entertainment now and then…. let’s not get carried away.

I think Cobra Kai was always supposed to be that way, wasn't it? 

 

I agree on True Detective!
