Nevermund his age, SMDH. He's actually been a Older Actor since first appearing on Star Trek series years ago. This show has a solid storyline with "Data's death and the mystery of his Daughters". Who are pretty hot by the way! And they have introduced several young supporting cast members. I'm also very interested to see what will happen with The BORG...

Supposedly seven of nine is in the series. I have not gotten to her appearance yet. But I've always loved her appearance, if you take my meaning.

FYI The first movie or TV show I saw Patrick Stewart in was Excalibur. He didn't look young in that.

Haha!!! I remember that. I'll do you one better.... I remember him in that 80s Psedo-SciFi Vampire flick: Lifeforce. He was mature looking way back then too.

Last night I finally caught up to the newest episode, after rewatching the entire series.

He's 80 years old, past his best before date by about 20 years.

Had a 2 day work trip and lots of flying so watching several episodes of the Stranger and Daybreak. Also finished Locke and Key. All very entertaining. Stranger has me hooked with how everything is coming together. Daybreak seems like mindless fun, but still a good watch.

It's fantastic. But I've been a huge Curb fan since it came out and a big Seinfeld fan as well.

Sorta looking forward to the new season of better call Saul next week. Watched the new season promo last night. First two seasons have been pretty lackluster and slow moving but with Mike joining the party you can see it’s headed in the right direction. Gus onboard this season should amp it up to exciting. Hope it gets to near BB level of addiction

Picard is the captain Roddenberry wanted rather than Captain Kirk. He's more a Captain Robert April from the early writings. The network wanted a more swashbuckling captain, hence, Captain Kirk and the rest is history.

MKSixer · 02-21-2020, 11:02 AM

Just started Better Call Saul, season 4. Not bad so far.

My wife only knows him as Scrooge as his is her favorite adaptation of the movie.

My wife has latched onto 'Counterpart', a Starz series about parallel universes, now available on Amazon Prime. I like JK Simmons but I'm not falling in love with the series after 3 episodes. Wondering if it's worth further investment.

It's worth it. Completely worth it.

The Libertine · 02-22-2020, 10:32 AM

Okay - who here is watching “The Outsider” on HBO?? Pretty creepy but engaging show!

My wife and I are watching it. I’m not sure what to make of it, yet feel compelled to watch each episode. This contrasts with Messiah on Netflix, which I also couldn’t decide what to think about, yet stopped watching after one episode. Outsider is oddly compelling.

I agree. It’s definitely not your run-of-the-mill series, but Ben Mendelsohn makes it so much fun to watch.

Hadn't heard of The Outsider. Just looked it up on IMDB. Sounds interesting. Wife and I are gonna give it a shot.

This was me a few weeks ago. I watched the first three episodes and was on the fence. I just couldn't get all the way into it. I stopped watching.

I'm watching The Outsider. It has been a solid watch thus far. I feel like I would be more into it if they didn't go the supernatural route.

Fair point. I just hope the ending doesn’t disappoint.

Am working my way through the Comic Strip Presents series. They are not necessarily comedies, more quirky short films, sometimes bordering on weird, but always entertaining.
