The writers were very clever in facilitating
Daniel's return to Japan and seeing Kumiko and Chozen, then using what Chozen gave him to defeat Kreese.

Just watched it. This is where I have to say to each his own. To me the show gets better and deeper with each scene. And the cliffhanger at the end again!

That was no cliffhanger....was happened was very predicatable...and if the show is true to form, the upcoming events will be as well.

no more striptease no more flashes
I haven't watched the third season yet but I would like to see Miguel's cartel involved father show up with a bunch of gangsters to reclaim his son, and the dojos have to unite to fight them off, but instead they get chainsawed to death

Both judge and father had decisions to make. Unlike the father judge has previously not been in situation to make such decisions. Same as in BB the show portrays internal personal struggle involving betraying your own long cultivated ethical standards for the purpose of immediate survival (in addition to needing to make these decisions in a moment of time).
As I said to each his own. To me this show has substantial depth and plenty of suspense to get me emotionally.

I never finished BB so I don't get the connection. Be that as it may, the show has become (IMO) predictable...and, to be honest, nowhere near what BB was.

Your Honor is an OK show....nothing great nothing terrible. Being that I'm invested in it already, I'm going to see it thru to the end but it is very predictable.
I mean we could see or at least I could see the ending of episode 6 from a hundred miles away. And the way Brian Cranston gets his way and out of shit, it's as if the show runners watched Breaking Bad and took all of Walter White's BS excuses and hurried them thru into this show.
Oh and that relationship with that dweeb Adam and the Baxter daughter....don't even get me started how cringe worthy that is. Anyways, as I said I'm too far gone into the show to just give it up but I'm hardly blown away by the story line...that's for dang sure!

Now Mad Men on the other hand...holy mother of god. Now I see what all the fuss was all about. I'm just about finished season 2 and my hatred for Don Draper grows stronger and stronger by the episode and it's starting to get a little uncomfortable how much I can't stand him.
Obviously that's the sign of a great actor and great series. What a total moron, terrible human being, horrible husband and father and yet somehow he's a successful business executive, he's good looking and so all is good on the surface for this ass clown. Oh and Roger...he's not too much better as he's another first class asshole albeit a bit more humours one at that.
Anyways, I hope really bad things happen to good ole Don seeing a character never deserved it more than Don Draper. That all said, love the sets and the other actors are great as well. I feel as if I'm being transposed back too the 1960's NYC area where I was born and raised and at the time I'm probably a little younger than Bobby. Love love this show.

I haven't started Your Honor yet, but one of my good friends has been raving about it heavily and has been urging me to start it lol. Given the premise of the show and Bryan Cranston being the main lead character, I think I'm waiting till all the episodes come out since I have a feeling I'm going to love it and want to binge it lol

I mean, how can you compare at this point a series that only had 6 episodes to date vs. one of the best TV series of all time, lol

You're the one who brought up BB saying the situations were comparable. I don't agree.
"Cringe worthy" doesn't begin to describe how awful that plot line is (and IMO useless). It took me almost a long to get through their scenes as it did to get through the first 4 episodes.

As I said one of the most asinine stupid dumb absurd ridiculous and any other adjective you can think of, storylines I've pretty much ever seen in a tv show. And maybe it's just me but I needed to google the actress who plays the Baxter daughter to make sure she was female...hmmm.....just sayin!....lol
Hearing that Yellowstone is good.
Also, for those that watch, Snowfall is coming back on 2/24.

Oh God...too funny...we watched it the other night and that doubt was expressed among the two of us . ....and in all honesty I still don't know . LMAO...the challenges involved as a young high school male today versus dating 40 years ago have not got any easier...just more complex !

OH WOW !!! That is awesome...what about Ozark ? We also watch Queen of the South ...just simple straight on entertainment for 45 minutes ...and no heavy thinking involved...plus I dig that Molly Burnett....WOW!
Have yet to watch Ozark. Hearing that Queen of the South is good, but fairly far from the person it was based on.

LOL...nobody likely to win an acting award for Queen of the South although Molly Burnett does a great job and is easy on the eyes . Show has a lot of killing in it but is fast moving and entertaining ...just good old fashioned entertainment . Not as good as Ozak was ...not even close ...it was a beauty .
Just finished latest Your Honor....yet another tepid episode.
The only thing I came away wondering about is what is Mrs. Baxter taking to remain so cool, calm and collected.
