Keep thinking should pick it up there and try again, but can't bring myself to do it. If it's any consolation, my attitude toward it reminds me of watching the wire.

I can’t believe this. I guess TV shows are subjective, but I think Succession is as close to a master piece as you can get. Definitely a top 3 show for me all time.

Episode 1 of Futurama was okay. Felt like they stretched 5 minutes of reboot jokes into an entire episode. Looking forward to the rest of the season but not expecting the magic of the original run.

Terrific character arcs in The Bear season two.

Richie's episode was spectacular. He's such a goddamn prick, but a loveable one

Okay, I'm at the end of season 1 and I've gone from really enjoying Cobra Kai to absolutely hating it now. The writing and acting is just so off the charts bad

I have recently been trying to catch up on TV shows as i was quite a bit behind.

Succession - Fantastic. I feel its better watching in chunks though. Binge watching can lead to it losing me a bit.

Just started The Fantastic Gemstones - First two episodes have sucked me in. May need to take some Levine and McBride breaks at times though.

Halo - Way better than expected. Pablo Schrieber was good.

Watching the Righteous Gemstones and then Vice Principals really makes me appreciate Walton Goggins. Two different characters, but so well done.

He's been excellent in everything I've seen him in. His turn as Venus Van Dam in Sons of Anarchy was wild.

I always get a kick out the idea that the Boyd Crowder character in Justified was supposed to die in the pilot, but Goggins was so damn good that they changed the entire trajectory of the show and made him a central member of the cast.

Looks like little air on Disney+ starting August 30th. A bit of a wait but it seems like all eight episodes will be available.

You can get a 1 month free trial to CITY+ or whatever it is on amazon, and watch it that way as well.

True story ... I was living in Atlanta around 99/00 and I remember him stopping by my apartment for a few minutes. Apparently my roommate knew him.

His entrance on this week's episode cracked me up the way he just pushes the stroller away as the kid is screaming his head off...

Also, HBO announced a renewal for Gemstones. Still no word on Baby Billy's Bible Bonkers.

You should check out the role he had on "Sons of Anarchy".

Already pointed out.

What We Do in the Shadows continues to nail it.

The council of energy vampires last episode was fantastic.

Perfect use of the Howard Dean weird rant/scream with Colin Robinson:

Just watched the episode. And I agree with you 100% - it was a spectacular episode.

For those that haven't watched "The Bear". Go start it. You will not be disappointed. The acting and storytelling and camera work is incredible. It could very well be the finest television you've watched in a few years.

I was a little geeked out watching Richie's episode because it was shot at Ever in Chicago, a 2-star Michelin restaurant. My wife and I actually had dinner there last year, and when he was hanging outside to start the episode the area looked familiar (it's literally in a quiet former industrial neighborhood), but when he walked in the decor was instantly recognizable. I had to laugh when he walked through the hanging dried ingredients because that's just what they do there at Ever to welcome you. They hang dried ingredients that they will be using in your meal as a prelude. It may have seemed like a written thing to illustrate the pretentiousness of the restaurant, but it's just what they do already.

I know, I know, cool story bro.

Amazing restaurant. It was pretty cool that they allowed the show to shoot there.

It is.

And it is #1 streamed shiw in Canada for 5th straight weeks.

Yes! Only murders in the building is awesome!

The only downside is that due to scheduling conflicts I understand that Nathan Lane cant be in this season.

Oh that sucks. Meryl Streep though, so there's that.
