Hopefully they're able to capture the charm of the original.
No, he's said on podcasts that it was spousal support. He got divorced when he was on News Radio and then his career kinda tanked and the court wouldn't adjust how much he owed. I don't know how it was cleared up though.

They'll help to bring you up whenever you are down.

The terriers average 20 pounds.

Les terriers sont mes types favorites!

Jolies, charmantes, pas de problèmes à mantenir

Ils donnent du joie quand tu es "blue"

Les terriers sont à peu près vingt livres

Scott Weiland had the same problem to an absurd degree. Stone Temple Pilots split up for a lot of years, he was doing very little in terms of earning, but nothing was adjusted so he owed $66000 a month in child support.

He was literally pulling in half that on a good month in his later years, and that was with relentless touring.

My wife and I got baked last night and were navigating through the IMDB app, when we came across Renegade. A mostly shirtless, long haired Lorenzo Lamas rocking a duster and Harley while chasing down fugitives. The stories and acting are D level at best - LL is especially bad, especially his Kung Fu scenes

‘He was a cop and good at his job,
But he committed the ultimate sin
And testified against other cops gone bad,
Cops that tried to kill him , but got the woman he loved instead
Framed for murder, now he prowls the badlands
An outlaw hunting outlaws, a bounty hunter, a RENEGADE’

Just finished the two seasons on Crave. Wanted to come in here to post this exact same thing. Very underrated show. I wish they utilize Chao more since I appreciated his role as Job on Banshee.

Starting on Mare of Easttown now based on reviews here.

Oh ya, Warrior rules. Such a fun show.

Mare of Easttown was just okay.

I just went through Panic on Prime and it was a very entertaining show. Only 10 episodes for season 1, but thoroughly enjoyable.

Finished season 1 of Yellowstone. It looks fantastic but all in all, it wasn’t that great. Really kind of stilted storytelling even though some of the characters are interesting.

I’ve heard it gets better.

Remember that parody cop show Animal Instincts from Forgetting Sarah Marshall?

I saw a lot of good stuff being posted online about Hacks, so I decided to watch it last week. It is very good. It's only a 10 (half hour) episode season and the final 2 episodes air on Thursday on Crave.

I think its been a while since its been mentioned but I'll throw out more props for "Altered Carbon."

I really liked that show. Well...I liked Season 1 of that show. Season 2 was more of a chore, but Season 1 was great!

And if you're a fan of the genre and Karl Urban (and, lets be honest, who isnt?) then you can try 'Almost Human.'

It only lasted 1 season and I watched it eons ago, but I recall enjoying it.

If it had come to exist closer to the prime of streaming services as opposed to network TV I could see it having survived a bit longer.

A perfect example of a fantastic concept, and just "blah" execution.

Powered through season 1, and even though Anthony Mackie is promised in season 2 I have no interest in watching another minute.

Anyone else watching Mosquito Coast? I thought the first two episodes were fantastic, but kinda went downhill as the season progressed. Still pretty good though. Great production values, well acted, but the story is letting the rest down. I don't mind that they departed significantly from the source material, but it kinda feels like it doesn't know what it wants to be. Needs to get back to an ominous slow-burn.


Biggest annoyance:
