What TV series are you watching at moment?

Season 3 of The Sinner. Started out pretty good, but one major plot element seems a little too far fetched and unbelievable. It's not over yet though, so maybe will be justified once the mystery is revealed.

Star Trek Picard – it’s been okay but nothing like the originals. It’s still cool to see cameos from old characters though. I have a lot of time for Patrick Stewart, 79 and still going strong!

New Westworld has me concerned. I know Aaron Paul has gotten plenty of work post-BB but how can you ever *not* see Jesse Pinkman? It's been made worse by WW having him as a low level criminal who shows some promise but is down and out.....until he meets a superior intellect with a mission!

If they make Delores White grind him down to a stump as she tries to take over the world, I'll howl. We just recently got "Justice for Jesse" with El Camino. I can't bear it if they don't flip the script and have Paul stop the mayhem.

I got pretty disappointed, the attempt to maximize the shock factor in the end of season two is a cringeworthy facepalm...

humm, thanks for the heads up.

tbh after finishing s1 i dont think I can stand any more of that terrible musical score. one note intrusively loud strings every 2 seconds got old fast. nnnnrrrrRNNNNNUUHHN!

Yeah and those montages at the very end of each episode, so embarrassing... 

Never really got into Buffy so decided to start watching it.  Holy hell the first couple seasons do not hold up, they are pretty bad lol.  Mid way / latter half of 3rd season and it's starting to get better.  Production-wise and storyline.

The 2nd and 3rd seasons are the best ones, heathen!

Having only seen his mainstream work, I'd be curious what you consider bad?

I'm excited for this though!

Some people dislike his live action stuff sometimes; Garm Wars, Avalon, Assault Girls.  I like all of his stuff, even the early works like Angel's Egg.

Oh yeah lol, I remember trying to watch Avalon. I couldn't handle it.

Of the live action stuff I’ve only seen Avalon. Wasn’t awful but not up to his usual standard. 

binge watched the Stranger, nice relentless thriller with a great cast

started Tiger King last night, crazy subject and on top of that it's like a VICE doc shot in the Tim & Eric universe

Tiger King is a hell of a ride, lol. I had a coworker recommend it to me bc I had loved Wild Wild Country so much. Both are great.

though i kinda got tired with how every-one of those people was such an asshole- especially that guy with 5 girlfriends who he kept like a cult around him. by the end i just wanted to see them all in prison even that one lady that allegedly killed her husband

oh definitely, they're all horrible in various ways. not a single hero in the story (some people were mostly just tragic though, and saff seemed genuinely goodhearted, along with a few other g.w. zoo workers). doc antle is a classic cult leader. bizarre and cruel. his arrogance put him on a whole nother level of shithead though. the false indignation from all the ringleaders is incredible.

i 'member when i was around 18-20 i knew a few animal lover girls my age that had come across craigslist ads for working & living at "cat rescues" and seriously considered it. none of them bit, but yeah. at the time i don't think it struck me as being much stranger than something like wwoofing, really.

As I get older I get more and more partial to Jenny Calendar. 

Third season of Castlevania was good. They've got some great writers. Can't be easy to make a cartoon fantasy cast relatable, but some of the banter is perfect. I personally could have done without the sex scenes, but otherwise, A+ fan service

Just finished The New Pope.

It has an ending. Bit too much, I reckon, but as endings go it wasn't bad.

But it really nicely dialed up the Weird (tm), pictures were gorgeous and there was lots going to keep entertained by. 8/10 would recommend.

Looks interesting. That Joe Exotic guy was in a Louis Theroux episode about dangerous pets, funny fellow.
