Right up until the last scene of Narcos season 2 I thought it was done. Very happy they are continuing.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

You liked season 2 of The Wire but not 3 and 4? :o

The best made TV show right now is NARCOS.


I plowed through Narcos last month and wow was that well made and acted by every single character.

After that a friend told me to try Bloodline also on Netflix. It isn't as good as Narcos, but was well worth watching.

I like that both were only two seasons. It's hard for me to want to try a show that has say 4-7 seasons to watch. Unless it's great, to much of a time investment.


Narcos is coming back. :)

So is bloodline. But season 3 will be the last for that series.

I guess memories a little fuzzy looking back on the timeline After 3 seasons I thought it'd be in my top 5 or something , but the last two I didn't enjoy as much as those first three, Still good, and I'd always recommend.

This could also go in the video game and I'm quite intrigued.

Netflix is making a Castlevania series

I'm excited. I really hope it's as weird as hell because we have enough by the books superhero shows to choose from.

Legion is a mind trip but I enjoyed the first episode.

I gave up at the start of season 2 about a year ago, and jumped back in last night as this discussion reignited my interest. Being a first time viewer I'm committed if for no other reason than getting to seasons 3 and 4. Hope they meet the hype.

It took me almost a full season to be sure that Snoop was a girl.

Finally watched Hell Or High Water.

Great flick. Jeff Bridges killed his role.

I knew she was involved in gang "stuff" in real life so after a quick google search I learned that she was busted on a wiretap for selling drugs...after acting on the show. What irony.
