What are you streaming on Amazon, Netflix, etc?

Really enjoyed this. Even watched it a second time a few weeks ago.

 

Will Trent

TV Cop show done half way decent

 

Nobody.

Just a good old fashioned ass kicking fest.

 

7 Splinters in Time. No comment.

 

Cosmos: Season 3

 

Tried to watch true blood couldn’t get into it

Vikings Valhalla season 2

 

Rewatching Blue Bloods so that I can watch the past few seasons I missed.
Binge listening to The Battle of Gettysburg Podcast, by Jim Hessler and Eric Lindblade, on Spotify.

 

The Recruit

It is kinda stupid good

Can’t take it seriously but serious.

 

Paranoid on NF. British series. Rather decent entertainment.

 

Corner Gas on Prime/Freevee

 

White Lotus HBO

Been hearing for awhile that I should check it out, first couple episodes were good. Some really funny moments, feels like a dark comedy I guess... Having a hard time describing it lol

 

The recruit on NF. I give it a C.

Vikings Vallhala season 2 is good so far

Kalediscope on NF just started it

 

Did you finish Season 1?

 

Yup, watched it all yesterday. Didn’t think it as good as jack Ryan etc

 

Oh for sure, total agreement.

BUT I say it's a different genre - a bit unique - and as written in the 2020+ era VERY difficult to pull off. Not the same as Jack Ryan, IMHO.

1) I really don't like any of the characters. The main guy? No.
2) It's humor. Like it or not. Sometimes stupid, sometimes slapstick. None of that crap is believable.
3) Some of the acting is terrible. The roommate ex? The eye roll routine got stupid after the 2nd time she did it. The gei is a bit much.
4) It's a bit edgy, and holy shoot the last character. Bam.
5) Almost never can any show pull off serious and humor, and they ALMOST do it. For that I give them a B.

Thing is, wife and I were hooked, so again, it must have worked - we want to see a 2nd season of The Recruit!

 

Agreed and I’ll watch the second. Good breakdown

 

Don't know where I heard it, but I heard the first season is a challenge before it gets really good.

It's on my list to start though.


Working my way through Perry Mason now. It's been a good one.

 

Watched Kalediscope on NF. Pretty good.

 

The Last of Us - HBO

Could only start the first half but it's looking promising

 

Zombie movie pretending not to be a zombie movie.

Not terrible. I dunno. Jury hung......or out still.

Could be good. Forced a bit. Maybe improves when they..............
