yeah i was pretty annoyed with it as well, and i loved the series overall. really the entire final season was a bit off. trying to not get too spoilery with this post, but i'll just say the conclusion of 'the twelve' storyline was deeply unsatisfying.

I have loved Killing Eve. My daughter bought me all but the last season and I really enjoyed it. Been waiting for the last season which I'm pretty sure I am going to get for a Father's Day gift. Looking forward to seeing it but bummed to read this.

PS - will still watch it anyway just to see for myself. I'll let you guys know what I think.

Haven't watched the finale yet, but heard many complaints. Hopefully Jodie Comer gets more roles after playing Villanelle, she is really a fantastic actress.

TXSTYLE · 04-18-2022, 10:49 AM

Season Finale of POWER: Book IV Force was incredible!!!

stein_325i · 04-18-2022, 04:45 PM

Started watching Abbott Elementary. Very good series for network TV, very light and easy to enjoy, and the principal Ava is hilarious.

I love that show...still watch it every day in syndication. It got absolutely unwatchable when Ashton Kutcher took over. But the Sheen years were effin hilarious

Agree about Walden. Was much better when Charlie was there. Plus the kid (Jake) is very funny. Berta is a riot as well. I watch it on the TV Land channel on the weekends.

So…..

….I started "Bel Air" and so far I like it more than I anticipated.

Again, it's good but urrrrrgh. Find it hard to believe Wexler would sabotage herself so much over some old nutter in a field, Mike goes totally out of character and again decides to sabotage himself....why........exactly???

Plethora of close up camera work on ants eating ice cream or beer dripping out of a bottle to soak time on a story that is moving at a glacial pace.

Not to mention the Saul story is nowhere near as interesting as the Fring/Salamanca story.

It's watchable but jeez.

American Greed: James McGill bonus content was great, especially if you’ve ever watched the real American Greed.

such a great series. it's been a decade since i last watched it, but from what i remember it starts somewhat slow. i had to re-start from the beginning like 3 times before i finally pushed through those first 4-5 episodes. the pay off is so great, though. legendary storytelling and characters.

M5Rick · 04-20-2022, 10:20 AM

Ramrod, cowboy series where short guys with deep voices and guns rule the roost.

Kowalski2011 · 04-20-2022, 10:47 AM

I watched the series finale of Blackish last night, and the dedication piece afterwards. I always enjoyed that show when I did tune in.

Absolutely a great show.

It was great to see another episode of Better Call Saul, it looked more cinematic to me. It may be the last season but something tells me, it's going out with a bang like Breaking Bad. It's already been reported that Walt and Jessie will be making an appearance sometime this season. https://www.amc.com/?fbclid=IwAR1n_P...bYsgRI2h-zJJA0

You can see it coming. My wife nodded off about half way through the final episode last night so I paused it. Will finish tonight.

mdf · 04-20-2022, 07:14 PM

Yes I agree. Acting and writing is very good. I rewatch this every few years. One of the reps I worked with had been with the Orioles in their media/PR. Since he had lived in Baltimore, I asked him how realistic The Wire was. And he said it was very realistic. Generation Kill I didn't like as much but have been meaning to rewatch that too. Treme I didn't like.

On The Buses. Sadly all the main characters have passed away.

aguywalksintoabar · 04-22-2022, 04:39 PM

Inventing Anna is watchable.

Same here. Binged moon knight and halo.
Needed something to fill the void of insane pools so turned to renovation island.

Outer Range starring Josh Brolin. Wow, really hooks you from the 1st episode.

TXSTYLE · 04-24-2022, 03:07 PM

This is my most anticipated show of 2022!
And from the looks of this trailer... The 3 years I've had to wait, will be soooooooooo worth it!

I could only watch 20 minutes or so. I did not feel any suspension of disbelief, especially after the hole appeared. And I really wanted to like it
