Going through Mindhunter. Very disappointing, imo. Interesting premise but way too stylized.

the boys was ok'ish, i didn't mind it neither loved it... in its imdb page on the more like this section there's the umbrella academy, doom patrol and titans... are any of these worth watching?

Nah, the Boys shits all over these shows. I guess I'd rate them umbrella>doom>>>>titans. I found all of them rather boring tbh.

Umbrella thing was ok, mostly pretty dull but a few good bits. The other two seem like shows aimed at teenagers. The Boys was great though, pisses over Preacher (which has gotten even worse in the latest season).

Legion season 3 was the finale

The first season of Legion was the only really consistently good one, there were some good bits in the subsequent seasons, but it was completely uneven. The last season was definitely better than the previous one though, the first couple of episodes were actually pretty cool. It's good to see that kind of risk taking and invention though, even if it's a failure half the time.

Finished The Dark Crystal - very well done; I hope it gets picked up for a second season.

umm this is not good. unfortunate because i was really looking forward to it (as i'm a big wu-tang fan) but it's got terrible acting and the guy playing RZA just doesn't have the acting chops necessary (or charisma) to warrant being the primary focus. 

also- would've been cool to have a story instead of constant cuts to beats being made

it sucks, really?  damn.  At least Why Women Kill new episode is today.

i don't get why they keep showing BTK if these 2 detectives have nothing to do with his capture. the killers who they do end up catching, to my knowledge, aren't based on real murderers. the ed kemper testimonials don't really seem to offer any insight into helping them catch their killers so in essence- i found about 95% of this show to be blowing smoke and 5% to be somewhat interesting.

started season 2 but again: 2 episodes in and all i got was that they're getting a new office. 

btw: when you know BTK was caught because he sent a word document from his church computer that had his name in the properties, you kinda realize that this is all leading nowhere anyway.

BTK is a strange case; he basically got off scott free for decades, but missed the attention law enforcement paid him, like he had an inane need to get caught.

^^^ there was that, but rader was a family man. he had a job, had kids, and was president of his church council. he also did extensive research on his victims before attacking them. when he was finally caught- he admitted that he had two more victims lined up, but would most have likely only killed one as he felt he was too old.

what was most curious is that he had asked the cops whether they'd be able to trace any info back to him if he would send them a note from his computer. they said it was impossible and when he did they checked the properties of the word document and got his first name and his churches' address. when they arrested him he asked them "why did you lie to me?" and they said "because we were trying to catch you. what did you think we were doing?"

more like it's really medicore. i just cannot get into the guy playing the RZA. also, it's not establishing who is who besides: this guy is the producer. see, he is doing the producer. and this guy is the rapper. see- he raps and so he's the rapper. 

All I know is the nappy head is ODB.  lol

mr robot, get shorty and silicon valley all coming back in october...

Jim Carey's Kidding was pretty cool, excited for the next season...

watched this because of the main lead, Matt Berry, i thought he was pretty funny in Garth Marenghi's Darkplace and in What We Do in the Shadows but i guess this was quite forgetful...

I'm watching 100. Its pretty good, Its bingable, until the new shows come out in the fall

The fairy show on Prime is alright. 

I liked the 2nd season of mindhunter a lot. Not perfect but well done and entertaining. 

Has anyone followed through with the new season of The Terror? I saw the first episode of the new season and wasn’t hooked so I fell off but I’m curious whether or not to get back on. 

the spy. sacha baron cohen can act!

Finally finished Legion. Most creative show I've ever seen. Story doesn't come together all the way, but worth it for all the ideas it crams in.

I love Deet of the Grottan clan so much. So lovely. So cute. I'm kinda obsessed. Ha, the big babies eyes trick, it works  - She loves to be friend with all creatures and is 100% positive.
So if anyone is ready for something absurdely beautiful and also absolute evil, The Dark Crystal on Netflix. I've finished Ep3 so far. I'm from the generation who watched the movie in their childhood. Looks like this is a perfect successor.

The Wu-Tang series is some Lifetime level camp, didn't realize they literally tried to murder each other.  I guess in ep4 they finally start to get some airplay?

Australian survivor... Good watch for sure!

This series was great, Method Man going back to his old job in a cafe and saying it was one of the best things he’s ever done was proper lol. 

Started Top Boy. About 4 episodes in I think. Quite good. I do find myself rolling my eyes though every time a white character appears and is just another 1 dimensional baddie. Spike Lee Syndrome.
