    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!).

                                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.
