I agree. I found a semi-spoiler review before I started watching essentially implying that the show was ruined by a wacky new character- I thought we were in for some Scrappy-Doo level crap, but he played the role very well and I thought episode 9 was incredible- assume Emmy tapes will be submitted on his behalf for that one

Joe Exotic broadcasting from Jail?



Or maybe some 'found-footage' of Carole stalking her husband through the everglades hunting him like an animal?

Perhaps Jeff finally conned the wrong person and its a whole episode dedicated to searching for his body?

Just finished season 4 (second Mexico season) and very much enjoyed all of them to date.

Also noticing how 'smoking' is now one of the warnings they put on at the beginning of a show, along with the usual suspects like violence and nudity etc. The world has changed.

Huh, I really liked season three, but Ben came close to ruining it for me.

Spoiler!

Huh. Well I pretty much have the opposite opinion. But thats cool.

It could be because we watch that stupid show, Manifest. Anything is better than the acting in that steaming pile of crap. Yet we keep watching.

I disagree as well, Sliver.

If you've ever known someone who is bi-polar and/or in a manic state, you know the actor did an incredible job with the portrayal. I do think he's a top contender for an Emmy for the role.

Maybe you're right. Maybe I just didn't like the character (I didn't) and that made me think I didn't like the actor. Kind of how everyone hated the guy who played Joffrey?

Thanks for the input.

I’m not sure I can take Sliver’s review seriously when he calls Laura freaking Linney “the actress who plays Wendy.”

I was initially sceptical of the brother. Adding a long lost relative with mental issues seems like lazy writing to add drama. They pulled it off though with good writing and acting. The ending of his story was completely predictable but there was enough doubt introduced to make it a compelling watch.

This comes out in 3 weeks. First I'd seen or heard of it, but the trailer looks good.

I guess because we're starving for new material already, this fits the bill, but you know the ending before it begins.

Was bored last night, and watched the Big Show, it was pretty bad, the positive note was that Show himself was decent.

We tried one episode as well because it was something short before bed. It would probably be a decent show to watch together as a family with young kids but it’s not going to hook too many adults.

yeah, I also noticed that the wife was on that 70's show, I think she was Fez's crazed girlfriend or something.

Ben has always been in the show. S01 they really laid the tracks down for his eventual arrival. He was the ghost in the closet in S02 as well.

So my daughter(9) asks if we can watch Stranger Things. I have already seen all 3 seasons, but my daughter and wife haven’t seen it. My wife knows a little bit of what goes on cuz she’s seen parts while I’m watching. My wife doesn’t really wanna watch cuz she thinks it’s stupid from parts she saw. My daughter wants to try and watch, which is a miracle in itself cuz she just wants to watch YouTube, Jessie, Descendants or anything with Cameron Boyce(RIP).

So I say let’s try it and see and no giving up 20 minutes in like my wife likes to do when it comes to new shows. So anyways long story short we started this on Monday we are now going onto episode 8 and my wife’s the one who wants to keep watching. My daughter almost sits still for the whole show, but she does end up watching the whole episode.

Your use of "cuz" multiple times in a paragraph is grounds for reporting you to child services as an unfit parent. Not to mention you being a Canucks fan.
