re: Masters of the Air

I will be watching for sure. But I only just finished the Pacific and while it was very well done, it just got to be too brutal. I get it, that's kind of the point.

I was about to post about how the whole thing was cheese and that's what made it fun, but then I remembered the end with that fight in the warehouse. That was definitely a bit much

So..."Monarch: Legacy of Monsters" is pretty good.

Has Kurt and Wyatt Russell in it, it is about Godzilla, I dont know if there is such a thing as 'Canon' in...what....the Godzillaverse?

Look...its not Haute-Culture but its fun and there are monsters and most of the Russell family. Its fun.

Also, 'A Murder at the end of the World' has also been quite good. I'm 3 episodes in.

Essentially a murder mystery in an isolated hotel in Iceland amongst some Elites and intelligencia.

I could do with some more murdering of some of these fine folks, but its still been interesting. Plus I havent seen Clive Owen in what seems like forever!

There is different canons in Godzilla, this show in particular is part of American 'Monsterverse' canon which also contains Godzilla (2014), Godzilla: King of the Monsters, Kong: Skull Island, Godzilla Vs. Kong, and the upcoming Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire.

I thought The Morning Show struggled a bit to finds its footing following the conclusion of its original premise, so the mid episodes were kind of a mixed bag, but the last few episodes were good and I'm interested in where it goes now.

There better be a big uptick in Kaiju screen time or I'm going to abandon Monarch. I don't care about these people or their ####ty dad.

I'm only a couple episodes in, but it seems like they made one Kaijuish scene per episode... but they structure an episode between a few different storylines so that they can cut back and forth and stretch out like 30 seconds of actual monster footage into something that takes up a much larger chunk of the episode.

“Breeders” has been a simultaneously hilarious and gut-wrenchingly sad show.

Anyone who liked HBO's Chernobyl should check out The Days on Netflix. Really well done - Its a Japanese production on the Fukishima reactor incident and the some of the actors are supposed to be quite well known. Really interesting look at Japanese culture too in terms of political dynamics, hierarchy etc.

Lots of detail, and unlike Chernobyl, all of the episodes focused on the tsunami event itself, what happened as a result, what they tried to do to fix it, what failed.

worth watching

Anybody watching Rehearsal on HBO? It's the biggest mind fk ever. Craziest and most original show I've ever seen. Doesn't feel like the next step or an evolution of current or past types of shows. It's a whole new thing that you can barely wrap your head around as it goes on. Must see tv.
