OT: TV & Movie Thread

[Kakko]

I am holding off on this until I get done with Breaking Bad. 1 episode into Season 4.

For those that like historical shows, am a big fan of Last Kingdom & Vikings. Also, Man in High Castle comes back next month on Amazon Prime. That's a great show.

I've had my eyes on Vikings for a while. How much (if any) action is there in it?

Plenty. But it is just a good show, full stop. And the historical is very interesting.

"Sherlock" with Benedict Cumberbatch is excellent.

Also watching him in miniseries "Patrick Melrose"

Love High Castle

Just finished the Americans. Amazing finale.

I'm curious to know how this suddenly became a top show...I barely made it though Season 1....was sure it would be cancelled.

Yes!!!!

Season 4 is half-way through. After season 3 I thought the story was over, and so watching this season it feels like a setup for a new story.

Interesting. I had a feeling about this. Season 3 felt like a bit of a letdown.

 

[True Blue]

Love High Castle

As well. That is a menacing show. Not so much for what happens on screen, but what happens off

 

[True Blue]

Oh boy. ****s about to get real

Rattled off a few more episodes. Walt's descent into "badness" has been interesting. As is the weird father/son thing going on with him and Jessie. But yes, it appears that it's certainly getting real.

I really can’t get into shows that start off slowly, but something about this show was so good. It was so suspenseful and cool shit goes down.

I didn't find it suspenseful...and the characters were so blah....

Yea, everyone has a trash opinion once in a while.

Not sure what you meant by this....however, I am still curious to know what changed in season 2 that boosted the ratings....I recall reading they were close to cancelling the show after season 1.

Lol, I guess it’s just a show you have to be patient with. I thought it was worth it. Totally understand how people find it boring. I always tuned out the Russian spoken parts which is like 25% of the show. I just loved the way they f***ed with other people’s lives and had to keep it a secret to their kids and their next door FBI neighbor.

To be honest, I felt I was being patient by watching the entire season. One of the main complaints about the show was that it offered nothing different from previous shows/movies on the same subject...I'm assuming there was some kind of twist added in season 2 that made the show take off.

Even the best shows (which The Americans is) are not for everyone. I loved it from the get go and actually thought that early seasons were better.

For Black Mirror and Walking Dead were the ones that I could never get into no matter how much I tried to convince myself.

You're in for a treat - BB story gets really good once the relationships between the main characters are established.

I agree with you. But the producers must have done something in season 2 to turn things around.

Black Mirror was a great show until Netflix took over.

Not a huge anime fan per se, but I’ve enjoyed introducing my wife to Lupin the 3rd.
