need a TV series to watch

[Pissy]

It's a good series. Much of it is true to the way things happened.  If you can watch any of the ESPN 30 For 30 docs, there is a 3 part series that deals with the Lakers/Celtics rivalry in the 80s.  It's really good.  Also a doc on HBO that deals with the Magic/Bird rivalry.  Again, very good.

i went to watch the first episode of metal lords today and realized its not a series. movie review in other thread.

I really liked the first Season of Picard.  Epic worlds built upon the existing Star Trek tradition, compelling and well conceived sci-fi concepts, and just the right amount of action.

The second season has completely jumped the shark.

I also loved the first season of that show Undone: the actress is great, the rotoscoped animation really works with the mind-bending themes, and it ended well.  I was almost hoping they wouldn't make a second season.

They did.  And while I haven't watched enough to determine if it has also jumped the shark, it's nowhere as good as the first season so far.

And body watch The White Lotus?  It's Fukn great.

I've watched the old 1980 kung fu flick The Clan of the White Lotus, though I'd imagine that you're talking about something else.

What's The White Lotus??

[RAGER]

Takes place at an island resort. Different stories of the guests but at the center is the hotel mgr. who is Fukn awesome. Eventually loses his shit.

Good stuff. Only 8 episodes I think.

[Pissy]

Voyeurism including Connie Britton?  Count me in.

[RAGER]

You'll dig it. It's great.

[Pissy]

Really good.  Hotel Mgr was awesome.

[RAGER]

I've watched it twice. He's hilarious.

"Would you like to find out?"  Hahahaha!!!

[Pissy]

 It's like the anti-hero is the villain.  And the douchebags are actually the victims. 

[RAGER]

What do you imagine he's smiling about in the end?

[renfield]

I thought White Lotus was great. I love Sydney Sweeney and not just for her acting

[RAGER]

If you haven't already, check out The Voyeurs to see "more" of her.

Just watched season 1 of "The Bear". Dude from Shameless plays a fine dining chef who inherits his brothers Chicago Beef mess of a sandwich shop.

[renfield]

I've heard great things about The Bear. Did you find its portrayal of kitchen culture accurate?

[RAGER]

Some aspects yes, others no but it's def worth watching. Some parts are very anxiety inducing.

Just ripped through this too. Very very good.

[renfield]

Some aspects yes, others no but it's def worth watching. Some parts are very anxiety inducing.

Just finished the first season. Great show. It really gets the kitchen dynamic and how tensions can escalate really well. I don't know why the fuck my man was trying to taste test donuts in the middle of the worst rush ever, didn't really seem realistic to me. Also the whole twist with the cash seemed pretty dumb to me but I guess it's based on real stories the show creator has heard.

[RAGER]

I except the cash part. Don't see how that's possible. Those cans just sitting there is inventory and works against your food costs.

[stooge]

thanks a bunch  guys for letting me know about this show - it's fuckin' dope!
so good to see jeremy allen white again - he was outstanding in shameless - amazing actor

[Dylan Thomas]

I've been watching The Sandman series, and.....I actually like it quite a bit!

[Pissy]

It's pretty good.  But Episode 6 (I think) feels like a brand new season.  Never read the comics, but there's 10 trade volumes out there so they can carry this series out for quite a while. 

[mortlock]

bout to get into season 2 of reservation dogs. i love the first one.
