OT: TV & Movie Thread: Part II

Anyone catch The Old Man debut on FX/Hulu? First 2 episodes released, and really enjoying it so far.

Also just started Reacher on Prime.

I found Reacher enjoyable. I’m intrigued by The Old Man because Jeff Bridges is a future aspiration for my self image. I’m excited for the new season of Umbrella Academy, and just started the new season of Peaky.

I liked that Sex Pistols mini-series.

I just started Letterkeany. I know im late. Shorsey is next.

Im going to start new MST3K season even though im not really into the new stuff.

He brings a real gravitas. And you got John Lithgow and Amy Brenneman, real great actors.

Up to ep 4 of Reacher... fuuuuuck, it's awesome. Alan Ritchson is a man mountain but such a good actor too.

Finished Reacher. Really enjoyed it.

Now into The Boys. Been wanting to get into it for a while.

Let me guess… now into The Boys?




Unrelated to Reacher, but Preacher is a really good show.

I loved the graphic novel.

Did anyone see Jurassic Park Dominion. Was not exactly wow’d by it thought it was ok, nothing special. Top Gun, Maverick on the other hand was amazing.

This is like a carbon copy of my post. So far, it's very intriguing and superbly crafted, acted and paced. I couldn't help noticing that Amy Brenneman's role is similar to the one she played in Heat.

Bridges and Lithgow are legends and lean into their roles really well. I think this is Bridges first role since cancer? Lithgow has been on Broadway. Both have the added benefit of being really nice people in real life.

I watched the first episode of the Americans last night . It was not bad....albeit is a bit dated now . Has anybody watched this series in the past ??? It ran for a few seasons .

The Americans is an excellent show, couldn't recommend it more.

It is on hold these days while we watch Prison Break which is entertaining & not too bad...but not really that believable LOL....Bosch was my favorite over the past year....and his new one Legacy was good as well .

Almost through Season 2 of The Boys. Really, really a great series, it's so multi layered and scathingly flips the superhero genre and money and power themes of modern society and culture inside out.

The Old Man is tonight on FX at 10 EST -- for anyone interested.

Rude of them to air the show at a time that anyone who relates to the title won’t be awake for, btw.

Haha. Stream it on hulu

Put this in the music thread also:

Not sure if anyone has watched Spiderhead on Netflix yet but fantastic soundtrack (or whatever the kids call it these days) and sounds like it was mixed to showcase that... at least on my home system.

I found myself really cranking it and could probably be heard down the street...

Or certainly felt the bass in the neighbors' houses

Anyone here watch The Wire? I’m on another rewatch right now and season 2 the actor who plays Ziggy is giving me serious Igor vibes.

One of the best shows ever. Enjoy!

The Wire was one of my first that I streamed and watched multiples of in a sitting . It was over the moon good . One of my other favs after the Wire was Bosch and City on a Hill . I love the crime stuff....enjoyed Snowfall as well .

Bosch is another good show. Have you seen the spin-off yet?

City on a Hill is on my list, and Snowfall ain't over yet (has one more season)!
