Let's talk movies & streaming shows

Come and see...

I saw it on Arte's late-night program in the 90s and discovered it again a few weeks ago on YouTube (without commercial breaks) and watched it again.

Shocking, relentless, incomprehensible, and unbelievable...

One of the better adaptations based on Stephen King's bestsellers. 3 seasons on Netflix.

Enjoyed it but thought season 2 got over weird even for Stephen King. Enjoyed 1 and 3 though

Thank you. We started with Season 1 for breakfast today and have been pleasantly surprised so far.

I actually gave up quickly in season 2. Can you skip to season 3, or do you have to endure 2?

Can’t recall tbh, it was a few years back. I’d just skip it and rely on “previously in season 2” to bring you up to date

I recently re-upped Amazon Prime, and I now catch-up on series that have proven to be popular. All of these are wonderfully entertaining.

Grimm. Started the 2nd season. Better than expected.
American Rust: Broken Justice. 2nd season. A bit dour and dark, but well written and acted. Jeff Daniels & Maura Tierney.
Good Omens. Started 2nd season. An absolute classic with David Tennant and Jon Hamm!
The Boys. Evil superheroes with wonderful surprises.
Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan. Just finished season 3, where WW3 with Russia was averted. At the last minute, of course.

Finished American Rust, Good Omens, and Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan. Original comments stand, all 3 nice, Good Omens is great!

Still doing Grimm and The Boys. Season 3 of The Boys starts on a nice, wild, ride....

Now also:

King & Conquerer: Almost done. Features the truish exploits of Jamie Lannister William The Conquerer. Actually needs more sword-slaughter. Enjoyin' it, overall.

Three Pines: Albert Molina solves crimes in Canada. Enjoyin' this one also, nice northern back-drops.

If I remember correctly, Cardinal was a similar good series - 4 seasons I think.

The Beast in Me - Netflix. Run of the mill whodunnit. Yawn. At least 50% of the action takes place on smartphone messaging screens (mostly illegible - lazy film making which is commonplace these days).

Cardinal is better than Three Pines. 3Ps is gentler, but still a decent 8 episode watch.

Startup - Netflix. 'This is not America, this is Miami'

Excellent 9/10
