I saw the Between Two Ferns movie got released last week but I haven't had a chance to see it yet. Worth the time or is it more like an SNL character movie where they have to stretch the premise pretty thin to make it feature length?

Looking forward to S5 of Schitt's Creek coming out on Oct 10.

I've been watching the newest season of Great British Baking Show - Alice constantly looks like she is 1 mistake away from going into full-meltdown mode and taking the entire tent with her.

It gets stretched pretty thin. I definitely wouldn't make a special night of seeing it. It's OK though, if you like Zach and Will Ferrel, it makes it not terrible. Either way, definitely watch the credits at the end, that was the best part of the movie.

Second this. I actually enjoyed the route they took to play off that his show was a real thing and why he was getting all of these great guests for a public access TV station, but as was expected it was just alright. I probably enjoyed it a bit more than some may because ZG has a lot of call backs to his early stand up routines, which make it fun.

Worth the watch, but not some hilarious ground breaking comedy. It's only probably 70 total minutes of movie.

That's what I figured. It's a very funny concept for a five minute skit. But no matter how many celeb cameos you jam into it there's a limit to how funny it is watching Zach G (not even gonna try it) hurl passive aggressive insults at his guests.

I'll save it for a sick day or something.

Finally finished the Witcher season 3 last night, got slow at times so I would put it off for weeks at a time.

Behind Her Eyes was pretty good finished that up pretty quick.

Bridgerton I weirdly liked and You is great.

I got halfway through 6 months ago and keep thinking I should just finish it. Huge bummer, I loved season 1.

I'd never heard of it but I watched Windfall over the Holidays. Has Jason Segel, Jesse Plemmons, and Lily Collins. It's smaller budget and dialogue heavy but done pretty well if you like those types of movies. Plemmons is some tech bro that made a ton of money and they catch Segel in the middle of robbing their home, so Segel holds them hostage until they can get a bunch of cash delivered.

Then after I watched that Netflix recommended Forgetting Sarah Marshall, which is always worth a rewatch.

I only have netflix after football season. I cancelled youtube tv effective jan 18. ill likely add a streaming service then.


i really liked Wednesday, Stranger Things, Umbrella academy, and season 1 witcher.

sadly, the next season of none of those shows will be out anytime soon, so i may just watch Big 12 wrestling on ESPN + since wvu isnt terrible this year.
