Harley Quinn is great. Anxious for the third season.

I did. Seemed like pretty typical oscar bait so expected it to win some awards. I thought it was fine but meh. I wasn't mad I spent 2 hours watching it but I'd never even consider watching it again.

Bad Trip should have won the Oscars

I liked "Nomadland" a lot, but it's definitely not for everyone. More about characters and capturing a place and time than following an actual plot, and I think it's very good at both of those things. Feels sort of like a modern version of "The Grapes of Wrath."

Can confidently say that For All Mankind is the best show in years.

Its really good! I feel like it's really under the radar, I had never even heard of it before stumbling across it when I got AppleTV+ earlier this year because I wanted to watch Ted Lasso.

The wife and I just started watching it this week. We're 7 episodes in, and have been blown away so far.

It only gets better too. The season 2 finale is the best episode of the series. I was really happy to read that production is already started for season 3 and they have a seven or eight season plan.

Just got done with the latest episode of Invincible on Amazon Prime. This show is absolutely insane and I can’t wait to see where they go with it.

Kind of a bummer that the Last Kingdom isn't going to adapt the full book series.

Netflix puts out some great shows but I'm getting sick of them cutting everything short.

Fitz and the Fool desperately needs to be made into a series.

The 2nd season of that show was crazy and indulgent in the best way.
