What's streaming that's good TV/movies

[ClubCy]

Oh I get it, I have heard all those excuses too.

But that is more a choice by them then an actual excuse. If they went into the show saying they were going to make a show, and their plan was 20 episodes, to be out every year, with a deadline etc, they would. But they do not have those deadlines, goals, or requirements by the people in charge. So they choose not to.

I realize it is just the way it is, and in reality if they would at least make 10-12 episodes in a season, and at most be 1-1.5 years between the end of one season to the start of the next it would be ok. But coming out with 4-6 episodes after multiple years, and calling it a season is kind of ridiculous. But it is how it is now, so I guess we just need to accept it.

Streaming has been good for some things and I feel like it has hurt other things.

I mean, I get your argument. Nothing you said is not what most of us thinks.

But if you were a studio head or network exec and you are putting in $500k-$1 million per episode, you are going to let it get right vs. rushing it.

Zero Day was fantastic

Zero Day was fantastic

I've got it on our watch list. Maybe I'll bump it up to the top.

If you liked Midnight Mass you should definitely check out The King Tide. Red Letter Media did a video about it so I checked it out and I can't recommend it enough. It's a slow burn but pays off plus some. And you can't beat the price, it's free on Youtube and Tubi.

Season 3 of White Lotus has started up on Max. Two episodes up, it's been pretty good so far.

Can't wait to watch that. Wife and I have loved the first 2 seasons. Just got Apple TV to catch up on some shows there. Just rewatched season 1 of Severance and I forgot how amazing this show is. The ending of season 1 is so perfect. Excited for season 2

We're either done or almost done with season 1 of Severance. We feel like we have no idea what is going on, but the psychology of it all is interesting enough to keep plowing ahead.

Buckle up.

For all you of a certain age Tom Green has a couple of shows that just landed on Prime around the farm in Ontario he bought. He hasn't changed a bit.

Also we're a couple weeks out from the Righteous Gemstones final season. Can't wait to get my Uncle Baby Billy fix.

So pumped for Shoresy Season 4. I feel like it has to be one the most underrated shows out there.

I've got it on our watch list. Maybe I'll bump it up to the top.

It's on my list too and I'm really looking forward to watching. I'm trying to wrap up Black Sails and then it's on to that one.

Prime Target on Apple+ is a pretty good series so far. And if you haven't watched The Gorge on Apple it is a pretty good movie (but the ending could have been better).

We are also watching season 3 of Yellowjackets on Showtime. The first season was great, second season was good, and no real decision on this season yet since it's only 3 episodes in.

Happy the new season of Reacher is on Prime. The first 3 episodes have been solid.

If you liked that you might like The Recruit. I actually liked it more than Night Agent.

I like them both. They have a pretty similar premise with Night Agent having a more serious tone than The Recruit.

Paradise is picking up. This weeks episode was TENSE. Still highly recommend it. For those who didnt get past episode 1, you may want to try again.

Let's ******* go

Finally started Severance. Through episode 4.

Has anyone caught the Vietnam doc series on Apple? Ken Burns' Vietnam is one of the most impactful pieces of media I've ever seen and if the Apple series can hold a candle to it, I'm in.

 

[cytor]

Agree. I think it’s a great show. Just rewatched season 2. I haven’t read the books either.

The books are fantastic.... and better than the movies/shows.

 

[cytor]

Anyone watching Squid games, season 2?

 

[cyfanatic]

Re-watching Mad Men...wow...I hate Betty Draper...and Don...wow...so many faults but I like that guy! Roger Sterling...hilarious...unless you had to work for him!
