Watching them back-to-back fucked with mind for a little while, though. didn't aggy just discover that was all fake? Edited June 16, 20187 yr by bschoolprof
June 16, 20187 yr Whole shitload of Barbra Streisand stuff dropped on Netflix. Don't think any of us need that, but kind of interesting that so much (and it's some of the big stuff) dropped all at once.
June 16, 20187 yr White Right is a quick, human and personal look at racism in America. Richard Spencer deserves to be punched in the face forever.
June 16, 20187 yr Just finished the Staircase. Thought it did a good job of covering it and access to Peterson. I think he’s guilty but didn’t think State proved he did it. Not to mention the whole making up evidence corruption thing.

June 17, 20187 yr Just binged second season of Marcella, it was really good and the ending blew me away.

June 20, 20187 yr Anyone else watching Collateral? Started last week when I had nothing in the queue that the wife wanted to see. Started out good but has gotten a little preachy. One more episode to go. Have always been a fan of Carey Mulligan.
June 21, 20187 yr Chappelle, Baldwin, McKinnon, Mulaney, DeGeneres. That’s an awesome lineup. Edited June 21, 20187 yr by Chet Steadman

June 24, 20187 yr Finished watching The Rain... Some easily avoidable situations in the show that can make you second guess watching the season but got through it. Meh.

Documentary about the Portland Mavericks A League baseball team in the early to mid '70s. Team was owned by Kurt Russell's pop. Great watch. Awesome recommendation. Really loved this documentary. Had no idea Jim Bouton played up there. Thanks!

It is 6 hours and the quality is as good as Burns. I know it streams on the PBS app and website, but think it streams somewhere else (Netflix or Prime).
June 24, 20187 yr Cool. I'm not sure I would have purposefully invested the time in the WWII doc if I'd known how long it was. Now I'm glad I did. (I thought it was just a 2-hour doc when I hit play.)

(I thought it was just a 2-hour doc when I hit play.) Yeah, just looked and The Great War is on Prime. If you want to go down the rabbit hole. Long Shadow is on Netflix, as is Armistice. Armistice is one episode while Long Shadow is 3-part series, and both are about how WWI created the conditions for WWII.

Anyone have another rec for a WW1 documentary?
July 3, 20187 yr Not a documentary, but one of the best books I’ve read in a long time called ‘The Sleepwalkers’ is an amazing reference for the craziness leading up to WW 1

July 4, 20187 yr I watched the trailer and immediately added it to my list. It will now be moved up to the top of the queue. I smoothed through both seasons, but then wondered when season 3 would land on Netflix, late May 2019. Take your time with it.
July 4, 20187 yr Just finished staircase... can be a slog but I almost think that is intentional to mirror the legal process. Remind me to never get hit with any charges.

July 4, 20187 yr Watched Safe (w/ Dexter) and I liked it. I prefer shows like that, that are one season long.

It seemed like when I was growing up there were mini-series events, then Studios or whomever said we need to milk the ratings... The Brits do it well. There are a lot of series they have done in the recent years that are Mini-Series, or if they come back they are a new story. I suppose the US has gotten back to this with series like Fargo, AHS, True Detective.... Luthur The Shadow Line Line Of Duty The Fall Endeavour Jekyll Wolf Hall The Night Manager Broadchurch Innocent to name a few...
July 5, 20187 yr Just finished Staircase. My take is there was MORE than enough reasonable doubt to find Peterson ‘not guilty’. And holy crap, the Durham’s DA is crooked as shit. Judge Hudson’s interview in the final episode was pretty sobering. Basically said he felt he was incident. Edited July 5, 20187 yr by Chet Steadman
