Essentially Breaking Bad on steroids was my first impression. Only one season out right now.


Ozark was pretty good. They set it up nicely for an interesting 2nd season.

Humans 2nd season was a bit of a bore.

Killing made me so mad at end of 1st I refused to watch 2nd.

Exactly, penis. 8-)

Nah, it's been a rough 2 months. Right thumb is garbage. Can't do anything with it, like hold a mouse or type w/out pain. I wear a brace at work, at home trying to stay off laptop or phone or video games. Next arms/legs tingling/pain/numbness, getting worse each week. 3 different drs so far w/ no clear diagnosis. Neurologist next week. Hopefully I'll start getting some answers soon. Thought at first it was just carpal tunnel in both hands, but then it spread to legs and feet. Now my knees feel like I've run a marathon pretty much 24/7. Seems like every week it's a new place that hurts. Possible peripheral neuropathy, but not sure of cause. I don't fit the typical profile - diabetic, overweight, smoker, drinker, recent injury etc... Anyone have any experience with neuropathy?

I don't get it. Just 18 episodes of "where are they now" and nonsense.

Spoiler:
I don't know what you're talking about. I can't think of anything less nonsensical than a criminal gang that decides their hierarchy based on arm wrestling matches, or Dr Amp's golden **** shovels. :wink:

I have been watching Ozarks, Last Chance U, Insecure and of course Game of Thrones. Game of Thrones writing has gone to complete ****. This show use to use some logic where at least you can understand why they do what they did but this season its just been one bad idea after another.

Haven't burned in 20 years, but If I knew it would help I'd eat the hell out of some cannabis foods.

Anyway, been plowing thru a ton of shows lately.

Handmaid's Tale
Man in High Castle
Snowfall
GoT
Ballers
Hard Knocks
Legends of Chamberlain Heights
Atypical
Band of Brothers
The Pacific
Catastrophie
Comrade Detective
Pushing Daisies
Twin Peaks
Master of None
Wet Hot American Summer 10 years...

just started White Gold last night. About to start American Gods and Black Sails.

Twin Peaks is awful. I hate every second of it. **** you David Lynch.
Legends is the funniest show on TV. As basketball fans, you should be watching. Its Urban Southpark loaded with NBA jokes. The writers are two guys who walked on at UCLA about 10 years ago, one is son of Marques Johnson.
Comrade Detective is fun. Really funny concept.
Master of None was half brilliant, half awful. Mixed bag.
I think I liked the Pacific every bit as much as Band of Brothers. Both were epic.
Atypical is decent pallet cleanser at the end of the day.
Man in High Castle is sloooooooooooooow
HandMaid's Tale was very well done. Crazy alternate world. Ending of season 1 was a bit of a let down.
Jury still out on Snowfall. 3 story lines. One is great, one OK, one boring.

Keep the recommendations flowing. I need more stuff to watch at night.


New list of shows watching in September:
Black Sails - Ian, you were correct. This show is fantastic. I'm on season 2.
American Gods - not quite as strange as Twin Peaks. Ian McShane is great, as usual.
Unbreakable Kimmy... - I held out on this show for years. I'm really liking it.
Deuce - no clue where they are going with this other than making porn. No real plot yet, just a bunch of jibber-jabber.
Mr Robot - I finally went back and finished season 1. Glad I did.
Man Vs Food - old guilty pleasure. The new guy sucks. Looks like a wanna-be Chris Farley.
Survivor - starting next week.
Vice Principals - Walter Goggins is hilarious.
Ridiculousness - my favorite of all guilty pleasures. When a new episode hits my DVR, i get super excited. I just wish they'd use stand up comics as the guest rather than idiot rappers and DJs who have no sense of humor.
Halt and Catch Fire - pretty sure I am only person in the world left watching this show. Meh.

El chapo on Netflix is a great show if you are into Narcos and shows like that. Have been binge watching last few days.

Good place is great. Ted Danson in another good show, he's brilliant in this as well.
Schitts Creek was surprisingly funny. Seemed like such an old corny idea but Eugene Levy and his son have done a good job of it.

we're binging house of cards at the moment.

Shut Eye
Letterkenny
Peaky Blinders (greatest show of all time)
Futureman
Frontier
Grand Tour
........

If you're brave enough to get into anime you could try Death Note. The recent live action version that Netflix (I think) did is actually pretty good as an adaption.
