    I like his sidekick. What a character.

        I had trouble getting through the first episode with the Vicar's unbelievable decisions. But it's only four episodes. We'll see where it goes. I need something to watch on the treadmill.

            Willing suspension of disbelief. Just finished E2 while pedaling. If you thought E1 was dark..

            So layered.

              @Mik I had nothing to do today, so I binged. Of course at 1.25 speed.

              Waste of an afternoon, IMO. The only thing I really enjoyed was Tucci's performance.

              ETA: And...it gets darker, and less funny. I'm OK with dark (Ozark, anyone?). But at least make it plausible. I never, for a second, bought the vicar's motivation, and that's what drives the entire plot.

                I was ok with the vicar for the most part. But the story got overly drawn out. Not really interested in a second season.

                  Peripheral on Amazon Prime. I get confused, though - new episode out every friday and sometimes I have to rewatch parts of the one before to figure out what is going on. (Would be better to binge it, I think.)

                    Is anybody watching 1899? I’ve been binging it - you have to go in and change the settings to original English - there are several languages they speak (and do subtitles for) - for some reason the dubbed English version is the default (and it doesn’t make sense when it’s all in English). It’s by the makers of “Dark”.

                      I finally got around to watching my You Tube TV recording of Better Call Saul Season 6

                      I'm now up to the end of Episode 7

                      OMG

                        It's gotten good press, I gather. I tried to watch "Dark," but lost interest. Not that it was bad, just not my cuppa.

                          @George-K If you didn’t like Dark, you probably won’t like this one either!

                            Yellowstone, Tulsa King, 1923 when it comes out (we get to look for Jodi!).

                            Lufin says I should watch Spirited.

                                Is it great television?

                                Nope.

                                Is it a fancy soap opera?

                                Yup.

                                Is it full of cowboy/horse porn?

                                Yup.

                                Is it fun?

                                Oh yeah.

                                As I've said, it's a guilty pleasure, like "Dallas" was in the early 1980s - but the people in Dallas were nicer.

                                  It’s not on Paramount+, just the cable Paramount Network and also on CMT. Not sure where you can watch the first four seasons.

                                        You can watch Seasons 1-4 on Peacock. I think they are offering 2 bucks a month subscription now.
