Have binged-watched to the end of Season 3 in a week. lol... Not sure how I missed this one.

Another one that I enjoyed and seems to have slipped way under the radar is Quarry.



I wish more people would watch it. It's crazy to me that it's not one of those critically acclaimed show in the mainstream, like say Breaking Bad or whatever. People don't realize what an amazing show they're missing out on. It's revolutionary stuff, seriously. The way it is shot, the storyline and how its presented, it's all so amazing and completely different from any other show I've ever watched. And it's super relevant today, hell Mr. Robot was able to basically predict world events before they happened. I recommend it to everyone I know haha.

@Drivesaitl Give The Wire a chance, it can take a few episodes but once it hits you, you'll be hooked. It is less a cop show than True Detective even is, imo, lots of time spent on industry, the inner city drug trade, city hall, etc. It sometimes almost feels like you are watching a documentary.

I always hear this and watched the first 3 seasons and thought it was a good show but I still don't get the hype

not sure what separates it so much

Yeah, it's a great show but I also don't think it's necessarily the best show ever or anything like that. It's good and I recently re-watched it but I don't see the separation from other great shows. Definitely worth a watch though.

We binge watched 3 seasons of money Heist before this...
Thought it was pretty entertaining. New one was supposed to come out beginning of April.

Would anyone be interested in an online Oilers trivia night? I am using a program called gimkit with my students and it could be used for us to have a fun trivia contest. If there is interest I can start building a test bank.

have you tried offering her times of great praise and admiration if she shall take part in indulging of this country's great days of yore?

or of services of which can not be mentioned on a family friendly website, which indulges in discussion of great tradition which spawned from this country's great days of yore???

I haven’t seen the show, but you’re talking about Money Heist right?

Super annoying how they cancelled Quarry. Banshee/Strike Back are other shows that needs to be watched if you're an action fan.

Different genre, but The Knick was also incredibly good. Soderbergh absolutely directed the shit out of that show.

If any of you PC gaming nerds are looking for something free to play, there's a handful of quality titles available on a variety of platforms. I have no idea why the first three links auto-convert to media tags, but they are free for a limited time despite displaying their regular prices on the link.

I’ve been personally playing the shit out of World of Tanks.


If anyone here has played that game you know how infuriating it can be. That being said the x5 experience multiplier and free 2 weeks for premium time are nice, but they also attract the really bad WoT players.
