  • Here it is, in short. I would need to cross check some things to make sure it is all correct, but this is the story in brief: Some time in March, 1944, the 45th was moving into Germany in near co

Glad I read the spoiler. Sounds like shite.

I kind of want to see the play. It feels like it would work better in 2 hours than 5.

Didn't make it ten minutes into Silvermans new special.
Has she ever been funny?

I laughed my ass off when she got punched in the face in Way of the Gun.

Thank you, Mittens.  Great use of technology, a skill I can only dream of. Review of that first season with Stallings was wince-inducing for another reason. After getting up our hopes, ending (spit on ground) Pat Dye’s four-game win streak and being invited to the Sun Bowl (Whoopee!), Bama embarrassed by the Ville and Jeff Brohm, who made our defense look hapless.  No, they actually were hapless that day in El Paso. Brohm  always impressed me as player and corch.

Series finale of Big Mouth delivers.

Wish Freak Flag had been a character in oast episodes. Fucking slayed me.

I forgot this dropped.  Going to binge it this week.  Glad to hear it's good.

We binged all of Sirens Friday night.  Wife liked it better than me.  It’s Kevin bacon, Meghann Fay, Juliette Moore in an elitist soap opry.  

we started it, and after one episode i said i was out, but the wife kept watching.

by the end of ep2, it was growing on me, and then episodes 3 and 4 were pretty awesome.

i didn't think there was much of a twist, so i wouldn't watch or not watch based on that. they finished pretty strong and kept the dark comedy coming in some fun ways. lots of fun characters and the tone change saved the show. i think it's worth a watch, if only because the cast is stacked.

Apparently there is a new Netflix doc on David Gilmour dropping soon.

 

In. 

Department Q drops today.  I've been looking forward to this for a while.  Hoping it lives up to expectations.

Sirens

  Hide contents

Another Netflix masterpiece that you can’t decide is good or not after 5 hours. They’ve mastered engagement, but not excellence.

Julianne Moore must need the money. She was in Boogie Nights and The Big Lebowski for Christ sake.

I think this is Bill Camp and Bacon’s new lanes. Excellent performances on mid shows.

Nothing really stuck out about the sisters other than Milly Alcock has a great body.

The twist is extremely predictable and unsatisfying. They put almost no effort into setting it up, and the only explanation we get is a 30 second scene on a ferry. 

 

The final episode was terrible.  Ruined what had been a decent, if not great binge watch.

I saw the trailer for this yesterday it reminded me (not sure why) that I needed to watch David Tennant's The Escape Artist again. My wife hadn't seen it, and she thought it was great for a three-hour miniseries. It's on Amazon Prime, Tubi, and Freeve.

Thanks for the recommendation. Tennant was excellent alongside Olivia Colman in Broadchurch (and of course many other things).  Will check it out.

Enjoying Sirens through two episodes. It's pretty good for Rich People Being All Weird in a Beautiful Environment On Water and Also There is a Murder Probably TV. 

Is there a name for that? White Lotus TV? 

Man, trying to get through first episode of Sirens but it’s a grind. So far there’s nothing interesting about it. 

I watched Havoc last night.  Tom Hardy as a bent cop and Forest Whitaker as a dirty politician.  Not much of a plot, but nonstop action.  I enjoyed it.

We’re thru 8 eps of dept q so far and it’s slow to build but it’s really good for a cop show with no guns.

Started Department Q last night. I think it deserves its own thread. I highly recommend. 
 

Starting episode 2 right now. 

Johnson & Johnson must love the new Tylenol murders doc.

Dept. Q is excellent through 4 episodes. Binging.

I started it last night as well.  I got through 4 episodes before I was too tired to continue, but I'm really enjoying it.  Fuck his ex wife though.  She's a cunt.  Akram seems guarded about his past; I want to know the backstory there.

Watched this last night.  It left more questions than answers, but I guess that's the purpose of an cold case doc.

Watched “Mo”

Never heard of season 1 but saw that season 2 dropped this winter/spring.

Palestinian refugee family moves to Houston, comedic story-telling as he grows up “hustling” in Houston as family works through asylum system.

He speaks Spanish, dates a Catholic girl, deals with living at home with his mom and older autistic brother.

That shit fucking sucked. Everyone save 3 hours, that shit was stupid. 

Are you talking about the Tylenol doc? I was going to watch it after I finish the Fred & Rose west doc (which is excellent). Will skip the Tylenol doc if so as I think we have similar documentary taste.

We also watched the first episode. We liked it. Has a bit of a Slow Horses vibe.  Will continue tonight.

Yeah, pass. I should have punched myself in the face for however long those 3 episodes took instead. 

Another vote for Dept. Q. Probably could’ve been shorter but still good.

Am I missing the ending?  On the ferry at the end ,  Is Mykeala(sp) insinuating to Devon that she was the first Mrs. Kell’s assistant…  And Peter pursued her like he is Simone?

I think Kiki explicitly states she was never friends with the original Mrs. Kell, and because Simone is her best friend it makes the betrayal worse. I can’t remember them explaining how Kiki came into the Kell’s lives. 
 

I hate this fucking show.

It's weird because I like her in interviews and rosts and those type items, but never liked her stand-up as I find her very unfunny. I can't really rectify nor justify that oddity.

Only on Episode 3 but thus far Dept. Q is really interesting for those who like dark who-dun-it murder/mystery shows from England, which I compulsively do... so you've been warned.

I’ll have to revisit her stand up. She’s really good at telling funny stories. 
 

Great tits.

Finished it tonight. Thought was excellent. Fully enjoyable watch. 

The Wyatt Earp series is really good if you like history. So much of the extent of his story and how the president and JP Morgan were involved that I didn’t know before.

Great tits. 

If y’all are talking about Sarah Silverman I find her mysterious, attractive, clever and hilarious at times but then again I voluntarily signed up for Shaggy and Surly.  She does get into some topics that are off putting. I like her coquettish sluttiness.  Thought she did a good job portraying the bitchy friend in School of Rock.

anybody seen Straw? TPH is generally fantastic and it seems pretty heavy for Perry, but i'm not usually a fan 🤔

And just think about how much angst and bullshit that shit caused in the 80s.  Lumped in there with the fake rumors about needles in candy, and the true story about Adam Walsh, and combine it all with the beginnings of 24-hour Cable News TV and you had a mixture for making our parents paranoid.

Oh, y’all are saying “ferry”. Didn’t have on my readers on and thought it was something about 30 seconds on a furry, and I was mildly intrigued. 

I enjoyed the Ocean's Gate documentary.  I hadn't tuned in to anything that may have come out after the implosion, so the context for what led up to the tragedy was new to me.  Nothing revealed was exactly surprising, but it makes me never want to go into space with Musk or Bezos.
