Yes I think it's good. I would describe it as a less funny Louie with lots of hipster characters. I'd definitely recommend checking out the web series shorts first though, as there are quite a few recurring characters that add to the world building of the show. If you looking for a quick feel of what the show is like, I think that episodes 7, 11, and 19 of web series is a representative sample. I smoke weed too fwiw.

Best thing about Fear the Walking Dead is waiting for junkie Johnny Depp to get eaten.

Worst thing is getting bored and giving up on the show before that happens (if ever).

+1 quarry is decent so far. 1st ep good, 2nd and 3rd not bad, didnt watch 4 or 5 yet.

every other new show ive tried has been total crap. i cant bring myself to watch pitch. the world record for a womans baseball pitch is 69mph. too much of a stretch.

rick reuschul was a great pitcher in the late 80s, and almost all his pitches were in the 60s. sometimes he threw in the 50s! it was great to watch him pitch! he wasn't even a knuckballer. almost all his pitches were fastballs. he just had great location and changed speeds a lot.

he even started the all star game... though that didn't go so well

Jered Weaver probably didn't hit 86 this year. Maddux threw 85 on the regular. That's not the worst part of the show. (Ali Larter is)

Finally got around to watching all of Minority Report - it wasn't terrible at all? I mean it's no Firefly, but for example Quantico is far, far worse.

we have robots coming to life, superhuman mutants, time travel, a girl talking to her dead dad on ham radio.... i mean that's just off the top of my head of new shows this season. that's not going to into the billion other unbelievably fake shows we all watch and love every day. but you draw the line at a woman pitching in the pros lol... and she's an injury replacement to the number 5 starter with an era of 11 or whatever it is

Taking Fire had potential, but ended up degenerating into mostly soldiers talking about how bad war is. Just like most other combat-related shows. This one could have been better than Bomb Patrol, producers let it down.

Full Season Order for Lethal Weapon.
It's not too bad, certainly better than MacGyver.

Goliath is pretty damn good...just finished the first episode...

It's the new David E. Kelly show starring Billy Bob Thorton as a has-been lawyer in Santa Monica.

Really deep cast, too: Maria Bello, Molly Parker, Olivia Thirby, William Hurt, Nina Arianda, Sarah Wynter, Harold Perrineau, Dwight Yoakam and Ever Carradine.

Decided to start watching The Twilight Zone. Never seen a single ep, but I heard it's a lot like Black Mirror and Westworld and I just love those shows.
First of: I googled and got 3 Twilight Zone series as result. Which one is the best? The original (60's), the 80's one or the 00's?
Which episodes I should watch first so I can see if it's really my cup of tea?
Thanks.

Original, that's the only one that matters. If you fire up Netflix (if you have that), you can go in order. I'd start from the first one. It gives you a very good idea of the format. If you don't like a story, skip to the next episode. It covers numerous genres.

Every Twilight Zone ep has been redone by a hundred different shows. Find a list of modern shows you like and watch their TZ episodes. The original stuff is lame.
