3 episodes in and pretty solid.

I'm now on episode 3. It's a slow burn but just enough is happening to keep me engaged. This show has potential, fingers crossed they don't ruin it. Which episode are you on now? Without spoilers what are your thoughts?

TXSTYLE · 07-03-2023, 03:57 PM

American Gladiators and Anna Nicole Smith Documentaries on Netflix. Both really good.

bigrum · 07-03-2023, 04:36 PM

I didn't think the latest season of Black Mirror was THAT bad... Just glad to see them put something out after all these years.

I liked Unprisoned, especially the full frontal view of Sue Ellen Mischke from Seinfeld.

If any of you are into sports like F1, Golf, Tennis, or Cycling there are some entertaining shows/documentaries on Netflix.

F1: Formula 1: Drive to Survive

Golf: Full Swing

Tennis: Break Point

Cycling: Tour de France: Unchained

I think they all were pretty good.

Murf the Surf · 07-03-2023, 06:34 PM

Watched the first two episodes of Jack Ryan season 4 last night. So for so good.

I had to put down Drive to Survive. It lost its luster after Season 2.

Agreed. Actually it was getting too slow for me until episode 5.
It picks up but now I'm committed with so much time watching.
Si much more potential. The added Drama from the Asian girl and the New York wife/mom, has annoyed me.

I'm with you. I'm on Episode 7 now. I'll for sure finish it, too much time invested and it's good enough. Season 2 starts next month so good timing on watching this one.

I'm just now getting back to Apple TV+. I started watching it early on (2020) and there just wasn't enough programming at the time so I put it down. They've clearly ramped up so I'm back. Seems to have some decent content. I recently finished The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey. It was solid. Looking forward to exploring other content on the platform. Let me know if you have any recommendations.

Check out Silo. Very Good. We finished it last night and season two is already green lighted.

Will do, thanks!

Looks like it’s a few years old. But been getting through Sense8 on Netflix.
What a great series !

we're 4 episodes into season 1 and so far so good. it's a bit slow after the first episode...but if they're going to do a few seasons then i respect the character development. acting and dialogue is solid.

Yeah. It slowed down for a few episodes but got good toward the end of the season. Let’s just say we are very interested to see how things play out in season two.

Clark_Kent · 07-06-2023, 10:55 AM

I finished Invasion. It was solid, but very different than what I thought it would. I will say the Trailer is a bit of a bait and switch. Character development is excellent, story arc is good, dialogue and acting are very good as well. It's an incredibly slow burn though. I wil be tuning into Season 2, which starts next month.

Not sure if I mentioned this in a past post but I'm also watching Hijack. Well done so far and the antithesis of those corny flight hijack movies released in recent times. They're clearly on a soundstage but the quality of the set is exceptional. It all looks and feels like a legitmate 3-4-3 Boeing 747 or 777.

Tried the first two episodes last week and it was horrible and slow. Wife tried to give it another shot and watched a few more episodes on Monday and she said she just can't get into it.

RickFLM4 · 07-06-2023, 05:29 PM

Season 2 of Lincoln Lawyer starts today.

Justified: City Primeval starts July 18.

Tom Segura special on Netflix started July 4.

Lots to watch once my in-laws find a new apartment and get settled.

tranquility · 07-06-2023, 10:54 PM

Obsession, it's based on the movie Damage. Just a 4 episode mini-series. I wonder if there's something irl like that, pretty scary if true, and considering there are billions of us, there must be.

This actually wasn't bad. Can they maintain it though and not fall in a heap?

I think I finished Season 1 but, I won't continue with Season 2. The actor who plays Mickey Haller kind of killed it for me.

Alfisti · 07-07-2023, 04:58 PM

i kinda like him.

BimmerFix · 07-07-2023, 07:20 PM

Apple TV : The Crowded Room
Silo ( amazing show)

Netflix: Witcher 3

Hulu: Mayans MC

spazzz · 07-07-2023, 08:17 PM

RRR on Netflix.
Really somewhat bizaar,,,,yep a pun and 3 hours of good laughs. I don't think I was suppose to laugh at some parts but I did anyway.

It is a good story, definitely worth a watch.
