    That episode was both brilliant and awfully difficult to watch.

        Ha it’s how I spend the 30-60 minutes of “free” time at night. If I’m really disciplined I’ll watch some while riding my stationary bike.

        I’ve seen none of those movies, and I have no desire to ruin my perfect record.

          Has anybody watched Warrior on HBO Max? We just watched the first episode. Interesting start.

            Anybody seen Miyazaki movies? I am sure lots of people here have. My piano teacher, who has the artist's temperament, mentioned them in a recent piano lesson by way of analogy to a certain musical passage we were discussing. I queued up Spirited Away on HBO's streaming service and will be watching soon.

            Education is extremely important.

              We’re watching 80 For Brady. Totally stupid and very entertaining.

                It just gets better and better. The fact that there are so many "guest starts" (Olivia Colman???) speaks to its quality.

                I loved "Forks" - the episode where Richie finally gets it.

                      I'll wait until all episodes are available then binge away.

                      Speaking of binging...

                      Finished "The Bear." Exceptional.

                      Wanted to start "The Lincoln Lawyer," then I realized, I'd forgotten just about everything from Season 1. So, I started from the beginning.

                      It's good, but not quite "Bosch" good. I know, Harry and Mickey are half-brothers....

                        Clint Eastwood's character in the movie "Blood Work" knows Bosch, too. Just read the book involving them both.

                            Just finished "The Glory" another Korean drama.

                            Link to video

                            Good, but very dark. A girl while in HS undergoes some very serious and horrific bullying. 18 years later, she plots her revenge.

                            Quite engaging, but no way a "feel good" type of show.

                                Getting ready to start Lincoln Lawyer S2.

                                Binged through the 2nd half over the last couple of days. A very different tone than "Bosch." It's a bit lighter. Still enjoyable, other than the obnoxious music.

                                The interplay between Haller and his ex-wife(s) is fun.

                                What the second season did well was to plant the seed of "there's something wrong with the woman accused of murder" thinking in your head. It all comes to fruition in the last episode.

                                A fun watch for those who like courtroom shit.

                                  We're enjoying it. Yeah, the chef is somehow amiss.

                                  Lioness has potential. We'll see. Foundation S2 is OK.

                                      I enjoyed as well. There are some...interesting...deviations from the book. And, at least half the book covers what happens after the season finale. I suppose I should queue up the rest of the book series.

                                      Fun trivia: In one of the scenes, security (?) is organizing a bunch of people, telling them where to move, etc. One of the leaders calls out, "Hey, Howey! Put that over there!"

                                      The author of the books is Hugh Howey.

                                        Good Omens, season 2 on Amazon.

                                        The first season was great, and this one is very funny too. Michael Sheen and David Tennent are a great double-act.

                                        I was only joking

                                          Just watch Strange New Worlds S2E3. Thought it was going to be a tired rehash but it turned out to be very very good.

                                          Seen on another forum:

                                          "Watched the newest episode of Strange New Worlds. Strange is correct - okay more like stupid. The Enterprise is caught in some sort of "spatial anomaly" that makes the crew sing and dance around the ship. Soon it spreads to other ships in the area. Toward the end of the episode there were even singing and dancing Klingons on one of their ships bent on destroying the anomaly to avenge their "dishonor."

                                          They missed the opportunity to have Spock sing "Scarborough Fair" to presage the episode from the original series, though.

                                          Oh boy, talk about a waste of time. Only watch this one (episode 9) if you want to see just how bad a Star Trek episode can be."

                                          Makes me want to skip this season.

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