I watched "Let if Fall: Los Angeles-1982-1992"

I thought it was well done. Having never been to Cali and only knowing what I know from media over the years this was an eye opener on how complex things are in SoCal. On top of that I watched another doc about the "Freeway" Rick Ross billionaire crack dealer and the Contra and CIA connection to the crack epidemic in SoCal. I think its called "Freeway: Crack in the system." Also crazy. Anyway I recomend both.

Started watching Godless. Love it but I'm a big western fan so it may not be your cup of tea.

We're far more complex and sophisticated and layered and interesting.....

I need to get out there and see. I have always wanted to go to Florence and Normandy, maybe try to see Eazy E's old stomping grounds.

Does anyone in the world besides me like Travelers? Yes, it's network level production w/ just enough cursing to remind you it's not. Yes, Will from Will & Grace is odd as the star and especially a hetero FBI agent, yes there's a voice in my head saying it's not good.

But still I watch.

I can't suck THAT bad can it? It got a second season.

The Nightmanager is pretty good... my brother in law tells me it’s a fairly good portrayal of grey arms dealing...

I love "Frasier". I've probably seen each episode at least 4x, since it's been on syndication for, like, ten years across four channels.

You didn’t like Breaking Bad and Stranger Things?

I am judging you.

Finished the first season of Mindhunter. That was really good.

I started Riverdale because I had heard good things about. What I didn't know about the show is that the target audience seems to be 16-18 year olds. Its kinda like if High School Musical and 13 Reasons Why had a baby, you would get Riverdale. The best thing about it is that there are two SMOKE SHOWS in it so its not all bad.

Mr Robot makes Breaking Bad look like the Brady Bunch. Pretty dark show.

Try Strike Back originally from Cinemax. Nonstop action and not dark. Crazy good.

Can't believe you didn't like Breaking Bad. Try it again. Or we will pull you man card.

I can see someone not liking Stranger Things, but I'll judge dude that doesn't like BB. Even my GF who doesn't like dark/bad/violent shows went crazy over BB. Hooks everyone I know.

Breaking bad takes some getting used to. I like better call Saul better. Not as intense but awesome character development and acting. Genius writing.

Still a big fan “Schitts Creek”. A lot deeper than what it appears to be at first.

Don’t come to this thread much. If you want to see how bad the drug problem is in the US watch the series “Dope”. I wasn’t really shocked but it is still interesting.

his accent/portrayal really put me off. it's like he watched a bunch of de niro films and just tried to copy his mannerisms, gravel mouth style speech patterns
