I like Giancarlo from BB but trying to stay interested in Parish is HARD.
The writing is bad and full of clichés, and the supposed bad guy crime family isn't believable.
Recently enjoyed Shogun, The Gentlemen, 3 Body Problem, and loved Loudermilk. The roast of Tom Brady was
pretty funny, Nikki Glaser and Jeff Ross absolutely slayed the place.

I find Hulu to have the most consistent original content being pumped out often enough and I really enjoy the shows.
HBO is great, but start counting the years if you are waiting for new content.

Netflix has some gems but they are hidden under so much filler garbage.

They will never recapture the magic of season 1. I don't like the new director at all.

I can't see a similar warning on modern programmes that contain a warning for nimby words and actions for the old school viewers, these 'notice' snowflakes should FO home to do some knitting .

I will never stop laughing at "Rated mature for smoking."

SIL gave us their living room TV when they moved. That and their bedroom set became their suite at my house. I hung and then powered up that TV, connected to my wi-fi, and my BIL had a Chappelle queued up, so I watched to make sure things were working. NExt thing I know 30 minutes have passed and my sides hurt from laughing.
