I watched it all in like a week. :nod: I heard they are finally getting to a possible movie.

So I watched Madmen 1st and Alison Brie did both at the same time. I came across a show called Love and it's kind of like Britta (Gillian Jacobs) after community but with a crazier past. It's by Judd Apatow so Rom/Com but with sex.


I looked at Glow and in the first episode an actor from Madmen with Alison Brie is on Glow with Alison Brie, but he was also in the show Love as Mickey's (Gillian Jacobs) ex. :o

Frontier starring Jason Momoa is on Netflix and is pretty good. I watched most of it a while back, I think I'll watch it again when I get a chance. It takes place in Canada during the fur trade and involves the Hudson Bay Company's trade with the Aboriginals, Europeans and Americans.

Dear lord save hours of your life and don’t watch season 2 of altered carbon. Season 1 is good but the 2nd season is dreadful, actors, storyline, writing all of it

Word! Too much dialogue that didn’t move the plot. And the plot would too often all over the place.

Someone on this thread had mentioned that the quality of the show tails off in the later seasons. Does anyone know when the story telling begins to take a bit of a dive? Is there one or two long term story arcs left after Season 3?

I think it was the fourth season that kind of fell off, but it was still a good story, and I enjoyed the ending a lot. It is one of the few shows I have seen where the ending gave me closure.

Every show has its "bad" seasons. Mad Men's bad seasons are still pretty good. Even when the writing is over-the-top, there are still very important lessons to be learned from the show.

Into The Night on Netflix is pretty good. Short 6 episode season.

Wade is basically Ben Gordon without the 3-point shooting. Sure, he's been a pretty good defender this year, so that would upgrade, but I'd rather have Gordon because he's cheaper and can hit those threes

Mad Men update: S 1-3 were phenomenal. I was a bit worried about S4, but it exceeded my expectations. I’m heading towards the end of S5 and am really enjoying the fresh takes on old characters + the development of new characters. On to S6 tomorrow...
