Briarpatch and The Outsider are my two favorite shows on now. Still need to catch Better Call Saul.
Oh, Narcos Mexico has been good too. But I've only see the first 5 1/2 episodes. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”
Amazingly, truly amazingly, the show wins its first award.

Just binged the first season of Ozark. Wow, it's like they heard the critique of shows like Sopranos and Ray Donovan being too violent and said, hey, hold our beer y'all. First episode was nuts. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel

first? one of the best show ever
btw, they should remake this, maybe chicago
I don't think you could do a very good remake because the city of Baltimore is such an integral character, and the writers' love for it shows through. And all of us would be judging it and only finding flaws. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim.

First, thank you very much for letting me know Narcos Mexico was back on! Also, I have been saving Briarpatch until I got some feedback....so I will likely check it out soon now. Finally, I really like The Outsider...really well cast.....looking forward to these last two episodes.

Season 3 starts in a month....I think by Season 2, Ruth (Julia Garner) has became the most interesting character on the show.
I've been watching Sex Education on Netflix and it's been really good. High Fidelity on Hulu is great too (the soundtrack is terrific).
I think it's finally time I get to season 2 of Ozark so I can be ready for season 3. I've only seen 1 episode of Briarpatch but I will definitely continue watching.
I just finished the fifth season of Schitt's Creek on Netflix. That I watched all five seasons obviously says one thing, just as the fact that I wasn't inspired to begin the series until just recently, says another. Maybe other's are where I was and thought, not now, maybe another time. If so, get to where I got, and give it a try.
It such a great comedy, one of the very few I like on TV. It is a bit quirky like most of the movies of the Eugene Levy and Christopher Guest gang (Best in Show) with some delightfully likeable eccentric characters--as Levy and Guest are known for. But there is also a lot of heart in the show.

She was that by halfway through season one. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented.” ― Elie Wiesel
So, allow me to cheat a little here. This is not about a TV show but about a TV network. It, or parts of it, won't even be on TV for awhile, but you LA folks might want to check this out as it will be live in LA from April 27 to May 3. Some really big names will be there including Dave Chappelle.

Watched it last night. It was good. Except for some minor character tweaks, they're following the book pretty closely.
I remember the cave incident from the book. It had a look more impact to me seeing it. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant
There are new Kids in the Hall episodes coming to Amazon and it will be the only television show I watch. Yes, it probably won't be good and will be a nostalgia fest, but lord give me Chicken Lady and Buddy Cole one last time _________________ Under New Management

Better than the book IMO.
I can be a little critical when it comes to S. King though. _________________ "Every hurt is a lesson, and every lesson makes you better”
