    Once you start to know the players, it gets better and better. The end of season one is a shocker.

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      Landman is pretty good.

      Started it today.

      Very, very, Taylor Sheridan - that's not a bad thing.

      Not quite as soapy as Yellowstone, but there's definitely some soap in there.

      If for no other reason than Jon Hamm...there's Billy Bob Thornton who is just fantastic. Probably as good as he was in Goliath.

      Also more T & A than Yellowstone, so that might be a good thing.

      Just a couple of episodes in, but very binge-worthy.

      Cool, I plan to watch that eventually.

      Right now I'm watching two shows that were very popular a couple years ago but I never watched them at the time (very normal for me... LOL). I'll mention the show titles when I'm done with the first seasons, since I'm highly sensitive to spoilers, even accidental hints.

      @George-K Ok the other show I was watching was True Detective, the first season (2014?). I think I saw it on some list of "best first seasons evah!". It was enjoyable to watch the acting, I didn't think it was the best show I've seen in a while, but still a nice storytelling approach. I don't plan on watching the other 3 seasons.

        Just finished E3. Burnside’s a sonofabitch isn’t he.

          I just started watching Chernobyl. It's only like 5 or 6 episodes, but is highly rated.

            Started Section 31 while pedaling. It started out great, then descended into a futuristic Batman movie.

              Good show. In an odd way, 5 episodes was perfect...not long and drawn out, and not too short either. Very well done, I can see why it's so highly rated.

              Just looked it up and saw the awards it was nominated for and won. It's a shame the main actor (Jared Harris) didn't win the Golden Globe, but in an odd twist, what the show didn't win it lost to usually...Succession, which I think is the next series I'm going to watch. It was a random toss up between that, Sopranos, The Wire, Game of Thrones, Billions, and a few other shows I want to "binge" (as much as I can with maybe one episode per night).

                @George-K speaking of this thread... you are missed! What are you watching these days? Shirley it's something more entertaining than TNCR post-election!

                    Mobland on Parmount plus. Pierce Brosnan’s finest work. One line in first episode is worth the whole hour.

                            Read the books - they're great.

                            I loved the books, too - I read the whole series very quickly

                            I just watched the first episode of the TV Series. Should I stop and go read the books?

                              I was only joking
