Love that series too, once you start watching you're hooked.

My hopes were, that they will turn around the whole thing and get back on track. On the flipside I hate it not to finish open items

One has to know when to cut their losses.

I gave up on it pronto haha. My list is endless on series that no longer held my interest.

Not really a fan of Eli Roth but saw the first 3 episodes of Urban Legend and so far so good.

TXSTYLE · 11-26-2022, 05:06 PM

Warrior Nun is so good! And I'm certainly not alone with this opinion: https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/en...ix-record.html

Started the new Wednesday series. So far so good, episode three seems to be where the story really starts to pick up.

Clark_Kent · 11-26-2022, 05:56 PM

Tulsa King is a loser. I thought it would be but wanted to give it a chance. I also knew going in that if I didn't like it, it would be because Stallone ruined it. And suffice to say, he ruined it. Awful, awful acting and terrible dialogue.

Aw darn, that sucks. Poor Dana.
EDIT: one question though, if Stallone was replaced w another actor, would the series have been salvageable?

Anyway, Leopard Skin is pretty good so far.

I really liked this one. I’m a huge Addams Family fan, loved from way back when and I think this in keeping with it.

It’s sort of like the Umbrella Academy meets the Addams family.

Wednesday is a little cutey as well

Blue87 · 11-27-2022, 02:34 AM

I just finished 1899 on Netflix and thought it was entertaining. It has only 7 episodes, looks as if a 2nd season could be possible and has a nice soundtrack as well. There are so many shows out there that it's hard to find one you know you'd be willing to finish.

Started The Watcher tonight and so far, so good through episode 4.

I know what you mean, its too bad because we were hoping it would be good.

Murf the Surf · 11-27-2022, 07:31 AM

We watched The English, it wasn't bad. Like so many are saying, there is lots of content but finding something you want to stay with can be a challenge. This is 6 episodes, a western with a few twists. Although I found it a bit hard to follow at times.

Well damn. I'll still probably give it a chance, you know because we all don't like the same stuff, but I was hoping it would be well liked since it has been shot in the two cities I've grown up in and lived.

This is just really me hating the narrative from the general public about OK.

Not everyone here is a slack-jawed, uneducated bible thumper that things the Feds are coming for are guns like it's portrayed in the media.

Don't blindly take my word for it. If you're remotely interested, go for it. There are several series I've enjoyed that others in this thread were not pleased with and vice versa.

Sound advice. I have found that I enjoy things others don't and don't always enjoy things others do.

Never heard of this one, I only needed the first few seconds of the trailer to give it a try. Tx.

Tried Alice in Borderline....... meh. It's okish but gets too weird for the sake of being weird.

It was a rainy Sunday afternoon here so my wife and I thought we'd watch some TV in the afternoon. Put on Wednesday and were still watching at 9PM. We watched 6 episodes. Its pretty good.

Murf the Surf · 11-28-2022, 06:34 AM

Saw the trailer for this yesterday, kind of has a Proof of Life vibe, so I'll be trying this next.
