I'm hearing lots of good things about that new Nathan Fielder HBO show. Apparently he stopped doing Nathan For You because he was convinced he could never top the season 4 finale.

I only watched the first episode but I really enjoyed it. My wife went in expecting to not enjoy it and ended up pretty amazed by the concept.

Right now I'm watching the second season of Righteous Gemstones. Still great. Then The Boys, then probably the new Nathan Fielder show.

My wife is playing Earthbound for the first time and I'm a very proud husband. It's been a regular playthrough for me since I got it way, way back in 1995. Always good to share the joy.

Took me a while to listen to this album but holy hell it's so good.

I watched the first episode of The Rehearsal last night with my wife. It's the new Nathan Fielder show. If you thought Nathan For You was too offputting, don't watch this- it has a very unsettling aura.

If you thought it was a brilliant show, though, you'll love it. The effort Nathan puts into the gimmick is unreal.

The second episode is even weirder.

Punisher is returning on Disney with a TV-MA rating. Hope they restore it to S1 greatness because S2 kinda stunk despite a great lead actor.

Bernthal is a perfect Punisher. Looking forward to this and Daredevil coming back as well.

Did they officially say Bernthal is returning?

Best female character of the last decade.

And total crush. Rhea better get her well deserved Emmy.

One Ms Dutton would like to have a word with you. Just kidding, I think Ruth from Ozark may give her a run for her money though.

There are 5 women in Thrones alone who give her a run for her money and several who were more dynamic, complex characters, and some better actresses.

Arya, Daenerys, Cersei, Sansa, and probably Brienne.

Want me to get in to Mad Men? Because Joan and Peggy are savages.

Does anyone here watch Mrs. Maisel or Handmaids Tale?

Best female character in the past decade is quite the stretch for Kim Wexler and I'm going to chalk it up to recency bias.

Better Call Saul question….

Whenever they do the black and white episodes or parts, those are all supposed to take place prior to the main storyline, correct?

After the main storyline, after Saul had to use the vacuum guy to disappear. Nebraska is where he sets him up with his false identity Gene Takavic.

Wow, I really need to go back and watch Breaking Bad. I completely forgot he did that and only began to question it after hearing a certain reference this past episode.

Earlier itt someone was talking about Better Call Saul being a top 3 series in television of all time. I asked for a qualifier in regards to genre but didn't receive one.

Now I'm not saying Seinfeld is better per se, but if you rewatch it it's impressive how well it holds up.

Jerry, it’s Frank Costanza. Mr. Steinbrenner’s here. George is dead. Call me back.

Personally I would have a very hard time having any top lists not separated by genres. My top 3 comedy series would have to include Seinfeld and the Office. Not sure of the 3rd but I’m thinking, I’m thinking…

i'd go Ruth from Ozark.

And I’m literally looking up 3 new shows now

 

[Billdo]

You can't go wrong with any of the three winning an Emmy between Ruth, Kim, and Beth. Beth to me would be the third choice but Ruth and Kim is a coin flip. I'd give it to Kim for her entire season but that scene in Ozark where Ruth yells you're going to have to kill me was absolutely flawless.

 

[JK3]

Finally caught up after binging all of Better Call Saul. Down to the last few episodes now.

Spoiler

I pretty much hate Kim and Jimmy after what happed with Howard, that was the last straw for me. They’re such pieces of shit.

Thanks for sending me down a rabbit hole. Because more time on the couch is what I needed in my life.



I'd also like to add It's Always Sunny and Big Mouth.
