Just finished this today. What a crazy story. For the guys to be on the run for that long too was impressive.

Remember, the 99 is back tomorrow...



Check your PVR. If you had a series recording set up on Fox, you may have to do a new one for NBC.

I actually didn't know much about the original story and Ben Stiller was on Howard Stern promoting the show and the stuff they were talking about in regards to the incident was so crazy I had to watch the show. The amount of time that guy had to saw away as the walls and piping with half of a hacksaw blade is just unreal.

I want to watch Killing Eve but Sandra Oh is the worst and most annoying actress in the history of hollywood. I just can't bring myself to do it.

Sandra Oh is in it? I didn't notice.

I just finished watching Conan without Borders. It was a decent mix of humour with some history lessons thrown in. It was refreshing to watch Conan again, because I haven't really watched him since he lost the Tonight Show. I've always been a fan of his though and love his humour.


My favourite part of this series though was his trip to Italy with his Associate Producer Jonathan. All gold. I wish there was more than 6 episodes.

how is this a thing? Is this guy for real? I don't mean Sacha Baron Cohen, the others. Wow. I honestly cannot believe the stupidity of these people. It truly is amazing who can be leaders in the US.

We are very lucky to live in Canada.

Future Man Season 2 is out, loved the first season so much; hope this season is half as good.

Yep that's a deal breaker for me. Anyone that has acted in Grey's Anatomy should be run out of the industry.

The second season of Friends From College was better than the first, I thought. It's not really laugh out loud funny all the time, but it does have some solid moments and the relationships feel very real.

If you're into British crime drama series (of which there are many) 'Informer' on Amazon Prime staring Bunk lookalike Paddy Considine is rather good.

The Patriot is pure gold!

The humour reminds me of The Lobster a little bit.

So my wife wants to start watching Outlander because all her friends do. Is this some kind of romance version of GOT because I see a lot of internet comments about men not liking it. Seems to have decent ratings on Rotten Tomatoes.

We watched about two thirds of the first season... It's heavily female-fantasy, which isn't necessarily a big problem because there's male-fantasy equivalents out there, it's just crappy writing.

My wife loves Outlander and I watch it with her. It is a decent historical fantasy with excellent cinematography and music while the story itself is hit and miss at times. I found Seasons 1 and 2 to be pretty good while Season 3 and Season 4 (so far) have felt strange and all over the place.

Also, do we really need to see all the raping? Some of the scenes in this show make GoT look tame.

I love Outlander. Good historical drama. It’s one of the few shows my wife and I both enjoy.
