OT: 78th Obsequious Banter Thread: Parlez-vous Français?

Wasn’t that a CW show?

"Blacklist" is an NBC show.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

I'm glad you are enjoying it - that's all that really matters anyway - but it's not really any good. I'll still keep watching until it ends though.

Another show I watched recently on Netflix that I really liked was Ozark

? In kingdom?

There's a super trashy show called "Kingdom" about an MMA ex-fighter who trains fighters and owns a gym, and his sons are fighters and are all f***ed up. It stars that pure human trash Frank Grillo and one of the Jonas turds, the littlest one. The one son's GF is hot as balls, though. The Korean "Kingdom" rules.

"Ozark" and "The Last Dance" were the co-MVPs of TV in the early Covid days.

Solid list for those looking for a show to watch.



I watched #'s 2, 4, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 15 on this list so far.

I rarely see/hear people talk about it, but I thought Mindhunter was really good. Apparently they aren't making a third season, though, so that sucks. I also liked Taboo a lot and I don't think I've ever seen another person mention having watched it.

A couple more shows I liked that I don't remember hearing people talk about as much: Billions, The Newsroom, The Defiant Ones, The Jinx: The Life And Deaths Of Robert Durst, Counterpart, and I'm sure there's a few others I'm forgetting.

Then of course there's the things everyones seen, like The Mandalorian, Band of Brothers, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Game of Thrones, Peaky Blinders, The Last Dance, Chernobyl, House of Cards, Making a Murder, Mad Men, Dexter, Justified, The Shield, and so on.

Oh god. There are too many kingdom shows. The Korean kingdom was awesome. I was thinking of The last Kingdom.

 

[Lord Defect]

Schitts creek is really good.

 

[Magua]

I’d like to watch My Brilliant Friend, if I ever get around to it. Possibly His Dark Materials, since I read the books as a lad.

I could say the same about the Bachelor. All the way up until the last sentence, anyway

Second vote for this.

Mad Men, Justified

This is why I like you better than Cap.

The big guy in Mindhunter in jail Is incredible.

I watch the Defiant ones everytime it’s on , so good.

That’s a solid list

"Newsroom" was good and the first season of "Counterpart" was awesome (haven't seen the next one yet), but "Billions" is execrable - I thought I said it on here, but maybe not - it's actually worse than "Suits," and I didn't think I would ever say that about a show ever. It is incomparably ridiculous and terrible. Loved "Mindhunter" too - it sounds like Fincher wanted to make a third season, but then lost interest, and may have gotten some pushback on the cost of making the show, etc.

Dont think so , but that guy is in My Kingdom lol. He’s awesome in it.

Not really sure why I have to keep explaining what "hatewatching" means.

Stockholm Syndrome

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

@ajgoal the one I keep forgetting to mention to you is "Dark" - I can't remember if you watched it or not. It's brilliant.

 

[Captain Dave Poulin]

Stockholm Syndrome

I had that in actual, literal Stockholm. True story.

Third on Mindhunter. Was really enjoying the series.

Michelle Money, no shit? She's one of the finest in the franchise's history.
