Just finished Tulsa King on Paramount. I have another week on my free trial so I thought I would try some new shows and decided on this one, overall it was good.
Sylvester Stallone plays an old gangster who gets out of prison after 25 years and gets sent to Tulsa to setup a new area.
Robin Weigert was so good in Deadwood as Calamity Jane. As is Brad Dourif as the doctor.
I'm only three episodes into a rewatch, but I'd forgotten how the show benefits from a strong supporting cast like few others. Olyphant is one of the most brutal leads I can remember, but it doesn't really matter among the cast of Deadwood.
Also, not-so-deep-voice Nick Offerman sighting in the second episode
The show is a cavalcade of excellent performances. Offerman going full frontal is quite the pre-fame cameo.

Finally got on that Disney+ life, I've been rewatching Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia from the beginning. Man that show was firing on an elite level from season 4-6. I've been throwing one on right before bed every night, been consistently dying laughing.

If you haven't caught their podcast, it's great. Each one is usually focuses on an episode, the first few seasons they didn't seem to have access to their own clips but corrected that going forward.

Honestly, they barely talk about any of the episodes for more than a couple sentences. The podcast is great because they devote the majority of each episode to discussing grievances or discussing more philosophical and/or juvenile questions.
Enjoying “Hello Tomorrow!” On Apple+ I wish the episodes were longer than 30 mins though. I really enjoy the 50s aesthetic and it has shades of fallout-like kitschy sci-fi gadgets and whatnot… Billy Crudup is really good, a natural salesman type. Hank Azaria as well… not a fan of Alison Pill in general, but thankfully she’s not a main character. The show just looks really good as well, great colours and special effects. Hoping it lasts more than a season because it’s really well done so far.
I’m trying to enjoy the Undoing but good lord stop casting Nicole Kidman in anything. She was never a great actress but now that she can’t move her face from all the Botox and plastic surgery, she’s nothing more than a distraction. She looks like the face stretching villains from that Star Trek movie with the fountain of youth planet. It’s like she’s a rubber mannequin.
I'm rewatching Seinfeld in it's entirety for the first time in many years, and most of it holds up really well. But I just watched the episode where George and Jerry pitch their pilot, and George gets in trouble for staring at the NBC exec's daughter. I remembered the cleavage bit, but I totally forgot that the daughter is supposed to be 15, which just made that whole bit creepy. Denise Richards was in her 20's when she played that bit part, and the age doesn't affect the gag at all, why the hell did they feel the need to make her underage?
