Another SciFi I forgot is For All Mankind. One of the best shows in the last 20 years.

Just saw over on facebook that all 10 episodes of season 2 are done filming, and we may get a 2024 release as they are working on editing and vfx right now.

Do you mean speed up, as in hurry up and come out?

or do you mean speed up, as in the first season was slow and it need to get more interesting?

Interesting show that I’ve changed my initial opinion on.
Currently doing exactly this. Fascinating! (Not reading comments until done, but as am watching with SWMBO, it’s a bit of a longer process than I’d like….)

Res is right, it was a great show, but you cant really talk about it until you're finished with it.

The second

At times the show felt slow and plodding

If you mention a show on here it should be law you also mention the G D service it’s on.

Netflix? D+?

Like wtf are talking about here? Now I have to go around googling and figuring it out when you could have typed 4 letters? GMG.

I watch almost everything on Plex so I often don't know what service they're from. And maybe bookmark justwatch.com before you stroke out.

I watched the first episode of a new game show hosted by Patton Oswalt called The 1% Club. It's based on a show from the U.K. and I am enjoying it because the questions are logic puzzles instead of trivia, and Patton is very charming and funny. The show has some game show tropes that I find annoying but I'll probably keep watching.

“Now I have to go around googling”. Like you’re not going to google it or look it up on imdb anyway to find out more about the show? You are reading this on your phone or computer, google is not inaccessible.

If I mention the network it airs/originates on here in America, would that help? If I told you it was on Hulu or FXX or Peacock, that would simplify?

Yes, because if it's Hulu or FX/FXX, that likely means it's on Disney+ in Canada or broadcast on FX/FXX. If it's on Max, it's likely on Crave. Paramount+ means it's likely on Paramount+ in Canada. Peacock is a tougher one because they've made deals in Canada with different distributors but will most-likely be either Crave or Showcase.

"Go around googling"? Where do you have to go to do this?

Anyway I don't always remember where I watched something but try to include when I remember.

I'm a big fan of the show ... but the latest season was far and away the weakest.

I'm halfway through season 4 of BSG. Its funny because I remember the complaint was after the first two seasons, it lost its way. But for some reason season 3 while it limped along at times, led to a season 4 that I'm really enjoying. The coup was really well done, the discovery of the nuked out Earth, and the Cylon Civil war all fit together really well. They just outright started murdering cast members in season 4 with Dualla killing herself and Gaeta and Tom Zarek (who Richard Hatch did awesome things with) was brutal.

Nothing beats and it was so short, the Admiral Kane story line with the Pegasus. Michelle Forbes though is awesome in everything she does.

BTW, the bonus content is so good, on season 4.5, they have a what the frack is happening on Battlestar Galactica and its a fairly hilariously narrated summary of the series that's so good.

and a whole thing on the "and they have a plan" that was put on the opening credits, and Ron Moore admitted that the Cylons really didn't have a plan, and that's why they made the TV movie the Plan.

Recently crushed a few series with ratings lower than I would have expected. All of them on Apple.

The New Look
Manhunt
Criminal Record

All of these shows were well acted, intelligently written, and had great settings. I'm shocked they all hover around 7.0 on IMDb.
