King of the Hill reboot was actually really good

Super intriguing cast. Leonardo DiCaprio · Bob Ferguson ; Benicio Del Toro ; Sean Penn ; Wood Harris ; Teyana Taylor · Perfidia, etc

But they don't let you extend the subscription either. You'd think they would love locking you up for a longer period but I guess they figure they are going to raise rates at least once a year and they'll take the chance you'll renew at the higher rate.

I canceled Max on an annual about a month before and they emailed me a super cheap 6 month rate before my year was up so I took it. Expires soon and I won’t bring it back unless they have a good black friday deal.

Yeah we need to post any black Friday streaming deals.

Very much looking forward to the final season of Stranger Things...... but the run time of each episode is insanely too long.....shortest "episode" is 2:05 and the finale being 3:00.

Very, very impressed with Alien Earth through two episodes.

Aliens is probably in my all-time Top 5 movies, but the show is meh.

Seinfeld was my end of the night watch that got my through the last few months and I finished that last week. Going with Agents of SHIELD and the rewatch is going too quickly. For some reason I had it in my head the first half of the first season was skippable but it was entertaining as hell. Just finished season one and it was bangers in the end. The show just gets better and better for the next few seasons. I can't believe ABC let it go on for as long as it did.

Out of curiosity, where did you see that? The Duffers said a little while ago that rumors of the episodes being 2-3 hours long are not remotely close to accurate. I do expect the episodes to be long but my guess would be probably closer to 1.5 hours on average.

I think I got halfway through Season 3 of Stranger Things before tapping out. Has it actually been good? Felt like a classic case of a show that should have been 2-3 seasons, but ended up being a victim of its own success and stretched the narrative way too thin (kinda like our Lost discussion a ways back).

I think it's been really good throughout tbh. Plan to do a rewatch soon

Alien Earth reviews being great is giving me a raging clue. Will report back with my findings.

Yes, but also Disney+.

Post #1395 » by **MickeyDavis** » Thu Aug 14, 2025 9:36 pm

The Hulu app is going away in the next few months. All Hulu content will be available only on the Disney + app. You can still subscribe to Hulu only.

I watched E1. The genre still isn't my thing but it has me interested enough to watch the second one.

I've never seen Gray's Anatomy but I like Eric Dane. I missed that he disclosed a couple of months ago that he has ALS. He's lost use of his right arm and hand and expects to lose the left as well. I rewatched the latest episode of Countdown and he reached for things with his left hand and when he shook hands with someone they cut to a close-up.

He said he plans to continue working. He's only 52.

He has a pretty incredible and memorable role on Euphoria.

I'm only through the first episode but I thoroughly enjoyed the style, acting, pacing. I'm excited to see where it goes.

I kind of love this. Basically 8 full length movies to end the series. Will make it harder to burn through it all quickly and each episode might become a Friday/Saturday night event.
