Extremely late to the game on this one, but just finished the first season of Stranger Things...Awesome! Really excited to see where it goes next.

Prepare to be disappointed for two seasons, but evidently season 4 is really good

Just had this conversation yesterday

I watched the true crime documentary called "Girl in the Picture" on Netfilx last night on and enjoyed the hell out of it.

Two thumbs up!

Here is a synopsis of this true story.

Just watched the first episode of The Terminal List on Amazon Prime. I can’t say if the entire season is going to be good…but the first episode? Holy shit!! Super intense and I have no idea what the hell is going on. I’m definitely all in at this point. If it starts sucking, I’ll update. But that first episode…whoa.

Have you gotten to watch anymore? Interested to hear if it’s worth the time or not.. critics have kind of panned it, but general population seem to give it two thumbs up.

Yeah 'ville,
This is spot on. The 1st season was freaking great, but they were not able to come close in the following seasons. The whole thing is geared toward an under 18 audience. I managed to complete it, but the writing is just silly most of the time and it's was VERY difficult to finish it out because of that. Most of the young cast will struggle to do anything other than a Domino's commercial.

NOW, if you want to see what I consider the very best in this particular genre..... It's LEGION, hands down! It's the MCU on an acid trip with Pink Floyd in the back seat. The young actors here are simply in another stratosphere.

I ashamedly breezed thru the second season already :) . It was ok… the introduction of max and her brother was weird and not really needed, and thought the ‘sister’ storyline was also kind of stupid, though I’m assuming that isn’t over. I was impressed with the character, will’s acting, but yeah overall the second season was a large letdown from the first.

different genre but just thought of it due to the kid actor concept, yellow jackets was absolutely fantastic… can’t wait for that next season to arrive.

Yea not surprised critics gave anything else with Chris Pratt involved. If I go further, I’ll need to go to the politics thread…

Severance on Apple TV is also excellent, albeit very uncomfortable. The show feels like you are the frog in the pot with the slowly increasing water temp until it boils over.

Agreed.. that was an incredible first season. The last episode blew my mind.

Yeah…watched the entire season in 3 days. I enjoyed it. Elements of First Blood later in the season. I’m a Pratt fan…and he is very good in his role. I try not to be too discerning about what critics say. And agree with noteeggs…it was entertaining.

On a side note…I have an 18, 16 and 14 year old. It’s hard to find something we can all watch. Our family really enjoyed watching Only Murders In The Building. Kids didn’t get any of the references Martin and Short were making…but they thought they were both hilarious. If you have teenagers, I would recommend it. There is some language…but that doesn’t personally bother me that much.
