Watched Operation Odessa . It was great. No actors , just a doc on Tarzan and 2 awesome players I had never heard of, but they def had a story to tell. It reminded a lot of old school street guys just doing outrageous xxxx and getting away with it.

WTF, 3 years, plus that spoiler? Hmmm..downgrading my enthusiasm, but still optimistic.

I guess that does make last season the true ending though, and this is just an extra coda.

Btw, did anyone here watch The Crossing? The commercials seemed potentially interesting, and I've seen a few positive mentions here and there. Haven't read any reviews yet, don't really want to know the plot beyond the war and time jump, but am curious and may give it a try eventually.

So I'm waiting to binge it at a later time.

However, I look forward to next week's Netflix release of Lost In Space!

I would agree, except I believe the season is only 8 episodes long. So that makes me feel like they have a good plan for it and they aren’t just dragging it out

I really like it for the sane the reason. Any idea how long they are going with this? Seems perfect for just 1 or 2 seasons.

I don't have an actual opinion on it after 1 episode. Feels like they might be trying a little too hard too early but I am interested enough to keep watching.

Going to be pissed if I get Evented again.

I usually don't have the self control but it's much easier if I don't start it and get commited.

I also want to avoid getting dragged into watching a mess like Heros or Once Upon a Time. It's just so hard to stop mid-series.

I usually wait until the series finale is announced, binge watch all other seasons, then watch the last season in real time. My policy is killing me on several series' though. Ray Donovan, Better Call Saul, Homeland. Are these never going to end??

Exceptions are shows with stand alone seasons: AHS, Fargo

As a EU (meaning watching shows ~18h after NA release) and for Game of Thrones alone I can't get on Twitter, Facebook or pretty much anything online the whole monday when it's GoT season

I've unfollowed several friends due to them posting spoilers before a show airs on the west coast. Sorry dudes, nothing personal.

GoT is one of the few I watch realtime. I'm looking forward to an entire series rewatch leading into the upcoming final season.

I was a big fan from episode one, but be warned, some have said the first 4 episodes were rough. Almost everyone I know who likes it though says it reaches its heights at ep5 and stays there.

Through five episodes and can’t stop watching this. Atmosphere is just perfect. I appreciate a lot of the smaller details too, such as references to the latest medical research at the time.
