Good evening... lol

Some of those were pretty good. Used to watch that series when I was a kid.

One of my favorite tv shows from my childhood was The Twilight Zone. Rod was a creepy dude, and I mean that in a good way.

Is Sons of Anarchy streaming anywhere ? Always entertaining.

It may have started out ok but Sons came to a slow dumpster fire skidding on its teeth at the end. The creator even said he only ever planned for the first couple seasons. That is one show I hold a grudge against for wasting my time (even though I had to see it through to the end).

I agree slightly. The 1st 3-4 seasons were fantastic. The last few not so much. I do think that they finished off the series finale very well though, especially with the final scene.

That being said, I've enjoyed the 1st 2 seasons of Mayans M.C. so far.

In the process of binging Narcos. Wow, this show is fantastic. I never knew all these interesting details about Pablo Escobar...namely how he built the "prison" he agreed to serve his sentence in after turning himself in, armed with guards he hired.

Just finished season 2, so just one season left. I'll probably give Narcos: Mexico a shot after this.

Oh and anxiously awaiting the return of Yellowstone after my wife and I binged through that in a few weeks.

If any of you are into investigative journalism style shows Trafficked with Marianna Van Zeller is an EXCELLENT show. She has shed light on several underground industries we typically don't think of. Sex trafficing, scamming, gun smuggling, the Sinaloa Cartel, Fentanyl production & smuggling, etc. Such a good show if you get a chance to watch it

You should read the book "killing Pablo". Fascinating.

Adding it to my Amazon wish list right now. Thanks for the suggestion!

El Chapo on Netflix is good. its in Spanish with English subtitles, but if you liked narcos you will like El Chapo.

Awesome..thanks, man!

I have a weird recommendation - My Octopus Teacher. Once you get past the rather slow 20 minute introduction (which I actually enjoyed, it gives perspective) its absolutely engaging and fantastic.

I highly recommend it.

Speaking of teachers...Mr. Iglesias on NF is very funny & charming. If you need something to just make you laugh its worth the watch

I watched with my son and he also loved this movie, it was quiet educational and emotional documentary.

I started this a while back and couldn't finish it. The concept is great but Marianna Van Zeller's voice killed it for me. I've had similar adverse reactions to podcasts. The voice of the narrator has to be on point or I quickly lose interest even if the content is good.

Ted Baxter on the Mary Tyler Moore show when he finds a girl in his hotel room bed and thinking of Georgette.

I've been binging on Everybody Loves Raymond, and Georgette (Georgia Engel) guests on the show as Pat, who is Amy's mother, who is Robert's girlfriend/wife. She still has that 'whispy' voice.
