I started watching Gotham last night. I remember trying to watch it when it first came out but I lost interest after the first episode. Now I'm fully into it. Glad to be able to binge all 5 seasons now

It goes up and down and there's some CW level cheese thrown in sometimes, but I think it's worth it. There's some really great stuff and the dynamic between Gordon and Bullock carries the show.
I always found Gordon to be the most interesting Batman character.
Well I’ll try that one , broc. I’m honestly so sick
of trying to force myself to get into something that I’m ready to cancel all my streaming services and just go with instructional/educational stuff like CreativeLive.com, PHlearn, etc.
When Watchmen aired I said it was one of the best seasons ever and it got me thinking. I’ve watched the Sopranos, Breaking Bad, BCS (ongoing), Rome and Mad Men etc multiple times. I like to rematch stuff.
True Detective S1 is up there. As is twin peaks S1. But Mad Men S3 is amazing. Don and Betty, PPL and the John Deere, Joan’s return, the breakups (personal and corporate). Multiple standout episodes.

Yesterday I decided to revisit the late 90s series Millennium, about a former FBI profiler named Frank Black, who works as a consultant on bizarre and horrific cases. It was Chris Carter's second series after the X-Files became a huge success. They even did a crossover episode during season 7 of X-Files where Mulder and Scully enlist Frank to help them on a case.
I forgot how dark and creepy this show was. There are some truly disturbing and grotesque episodes, especially in season 1, which I haven't watched since it first aired way back in the day. Lance Henriksen is terrific in the lead role.
I also really dig the music score.

Just finished watching the end of Battlestar Galactica, Still an amazing watch even when they dipped hard into God's plan. It was an amazingly smart show with great characters, terrific effects and great action.
I have to admit, I got a bit emotional when Laura died in the end, she played it so well.

Finished “Avenue 5”. I think the last episode on Crave was the finale. It was fantastic. Hugh Laurie, Zach Woods, and Suzy Nakumara were standouts here. Zach Woods was very much the same character as from The Office or Silicon Valley, but it worked really well.

There are a few times throughout the first season that I felt I was watching a clone copy of Basil Fawlty.

Oh dang I’ve watched Mad Men so many times. That and the damned old Twilight Zone.
The other stuff I liked is done. I liked Sharp Objects, Harlots, The Affair. I just can’t get into any of the new stuff.
Many had recommended it before, but just got through Man in the High Castle. First 3 seasons were excellent, but the fourth had too many major plotlines seemingly come out of nowhere. The series finale had some really chillingly strong storytelling moments.
Also just finished of Goliath, a Prime show starring Billy Bob Thornton as an ex-lawyer dragged back into a case. Great performances, although the season finale seemed a little unearned.
Been trying to watch Sanctuary on Prime but when I hit S2E6 it actually showed S1 episodes.

Mad Men was incredible. And as good as season three was I think season four was tops.
For those who need their sports fix Sunderland 'Til I Die Season 2 is now up on Nextflix. I've always been a fan of behind the scenes sports shows. First season was great in showing how the Premiere League works and the fact that you mostly have to pay to win
