You guys spent too much time in Al Bundy's NO MA'AM club.

On vacation with out the kids while drinking and running around in bikinis? Seems highly unlikely

Been really enjoying Fleishman Is In Trouble but wondering why they’d cast someone with the level of chops that Claire Danes has and barely use her. She’s been in a few scenes here and there through the first 6 episodes but didn’t get much of a chance to stretch.

Then came episode 7….

They saved it all for her in this ep. Holy hell!!!

Looking forward to Fleishman after happily giving up on about 90% of recent shows; they always seem wildly oversold. I've always thought Lizzy Caplan was a major talent, from back on the relatively underrated Party Down show.

And Aubrey Plaza needs her own smart sitcom or something, I love her so much. Don't go chasing those moronic-comic-book-movie bucks, Aubrey!

I don't get some of the hate I see about Yellowstone in some of the other threads here. It isn't a Top Elite show or anything, but it's still better than the average show. The mid-season finale last night sets of some big things when season 5 returns this summer.

Three Pines was fun. I went into it blind. Was made more interesting that it was in eastern townships of Montreal that I'm vaguely familiar with. Had no idea.

Kaleidoscope looks up my alley. Think I'll give it a go next.

I watch it on replay and get instant commercial skip so commercials don't bother me. If I watched it live and had to wait through commercials, that would suck on most any show. Yea, earlier seasons were better.

I don’t mean network style commercial ads. I mean the show itself has become an advertisement for Taylor’s other things. The 6666 Ranch show that’s in production, the online beef store, a few other things in addition to the regular ad placements. It’s just gross lol

I have been watching some non-American police dramas. The first 3 seasons of "Line of Duty" is great. I watched the first season a few years ago so can't remember how good it was but season 2 and 3 were great especially the last 2 episodes. Looking forward to the seasons 4 thru 6(they are short 6 episodes).

The Responder - Martin Freeman plays his standard role of someone who is corrupt and makes things worse as he goes. It's good but not great.

Happy Valley - Season 1 was pretty good, season 2 watched the first half and it's pretty boring.

I liked Happy Valley season a lot. Forgot it had a season 2 and now a season 3. It’s probably on the bottom of my list but it’s on the list lol

Not seen it yet, but saw this post that seemed kinda helpful.

Not counting Black (as it’s just an intro): whatever you do, watch Red first and White last, then rewatch Red.
Watch the others in between in whatever order you desire, but watch Violet preferably towards the end. I also recommend to watch Orange then Yellow right after.
IMO Pink is skippable. I’d rather imagine what happened to them after the heist, but to each his own.
What my sister and I did was ROYGBVPW. It works pretty well.
The chronological order of the events would be VGYOBWRP.

Just bit the bullet and paid Hulu 15 bucks to watch Fleishman, it's fantastic.

Oh and they gave me another free trial month evidently, so 2023 is confirmed my year. I still got it, probably for forever.

I almost said something snarky about lovely Lizzy Caplan having gained a few pounds, but no, she's still great.

Happy Valley was really good iirc, I'll gladly watch season 3. Speaking of British cop shows, also like to see a 2nd season of River.

Netflix started me on Green. I didn't actually start watching it yet. Deciding if I want to 'game' it and go in a suggested order or just yolo.

I am like 5 years late but binge watched Twin Peaks: The Return on Showtime over the holiday break. I thought it was incredible, but I am a huge Lynch fan so ymmv. Had been at least a dozen years since I had watched the original TP.

Also watching Slow Horses on Apple TV, which is a solid show that is elevated by Gary Oldman's performance, which is fantastic.
