The Russian in the woods episode was that last one I saw....epic. Pauly's face as they drove away after not finding him was the best! About to start watching "The Outsider" on HBO. Only 1 episode has played, so not a binge watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrum Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Happy that ME-TV is showing Barney Miller again. Great characters and Fish is the funniest of the cast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stryder1978 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I'm not much for Netflix "originals" but, holy crap...if you have Netflix, you gotta watch "Messiah". Best show I've seen in a long time. Story is riveting along the lines of "Homeland" Seasons 1&2 or even "Breaking Bad"!!! You can't wait till the next episode...it really keeps you guessing. Not one slow episode in the whole first season. THAT is the only down side - only the first season is out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree....normally even when a series gets bad, I watch it to it's conclusion, but after that last season in NY, I've given up on Ray.

Strider Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 "Fleabag". British series. Only six episodes per season so it was really easy to zip through both seasons in a weekend. I hated "Girls" and could barely tolerate "Sex in the City" but grew to like "Fleabag". Maybe being British helps. Going to start "Succession" next...I've heard nothing but raves since it started airing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes no sense to leave the fans, and there are quite a few members on the site, me included, HANGING. Mickey needs to be taken out. By either Ray or Bridget. I can see that if a season 8 is coming and I think it will eventually. I like the show. But they say 8 would be the end. So no doubt, Jon Voight goes out with a bang! I always liked Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he survived...impossibly at that, the bus explosion, the show had not only jumped the shark, but had inappropriate relations with said shark as well. That was a massive explosion, he would have had to of jumped out of the bus at least a 1/4 mile before he even saw the tanker truck yet they show Mickey, still in the bus, when the tanker truck was mere feet and seconds away from impact. Either that or they are pulling a Battlestar Galactica in which case that is not Mickey but Mickey's ghost or, whatever. Such a shame too because the show has an amazing cast and great acting, but the plots and story lines are just too outrageous at this point.

My favorite scene was when Ray jumped of the building next to the Brooklyn Bridge into the Hudson River with the song by David Bowie, "Rock n Roll Suicide" playing. Following his late wife Abby off the building. So now Terry is on top of a NY Building And they leave us hanging Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the first season of Ray and sort of got distracted during season 2 and lost interest. Now I know I haven't missed anything and there is no need to waste time watching the rest. 3 hours ago, chef free said: ALL 12 seasons of Trailer Park Boys, sort of the Freak Brothers of Canada!

Damn I miss James Gandolfini, guy was a truly gifted actor. Great series but I kind of hated all of the excessive "T&A" which I suppose was required by some executive types at HBO in their misguided thinking that that would be the thing which would make people tune in and pay for a subscription. Hollywood does that all the time. If they are worried they won't get a R rating they put in a woman's bare nipple in a scene. Don't want a G rating, they add a few four letter words and viola--- a PG-13. To tell a good story you don't need gratuitous sex and violence. Having the proper measure of each is in the art of good film making. Edited February 20, 2020 by kipper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
