Awesome. Starting it right after a Flinstone sized bone in ribeye.

Just finished it today. It made me sick to my stomach at times. He was truly an enigma.

There is a theory that certain people have to be born at the right time, with the right skill set and the right determination to perform certain actions. Most of this is directed at world changers in a positive way but I believe it applies to Ted.

You had me at Ted Bundy... he’s been a guilty pleasure fascination of mine for years... not really serial killers so much, just Bundy.

It honestly doesn't seem like he was that good at being a serial killer. He only evaded custody for as long as he did because of some shitty police work. Kidnapping multiple people from the same busy location in broad daylight? Doing so while you've already gone up to other potential targets and introduced yourself by name? Come on, that's busch league.

Same story with the prison escapes. He was unattended and not shackled. The CO tried to make it sound like Bundy was some mastermind they could barely keep contained. Just seemed like they sucked at their jobs.

Bundy is not the American Jack the Ripper. That's Zodiac without question IMO.

Watched the Fyre Festival Doc last night. Its a pretty insane story, basically 1.5 hours of cringe inducing comedy of error.

Mark Harmon's best acting job was in the TV movie (miniseries?) The Deliberate Stranger as Ted Bundy.

Yea, that was crazy. Finished it last night. Wife had to watch Finiding Nemo afterwards. Very disturbing.

30 women isn't that good? He was increasingly brazen in his methods. His last abductions in Florida were a prime example. He was teetering and ready to be caught. 5 women within 1/2 mile on a single night shows that he couldn't keep the animal caged.

We're fortunate that he never graduated to something more lethal, like bomb making. Agree on his escapes, they weren't anything spectacular: right man, right time, right mindset

The entire ordeal was a circus

I always had the impression that he had done a good job representing himself in his trial. I suppose I got that impression from the comments the judge made which have become a fairly well known part of the story.
But having watched it, he represented himself horridly. For example, his only cross examination of the police on the scene at the Florida dorm was to get the gory details. He had to be told he had already asked for the gory details once. What a circus.

Quantity over quality. Like you said he was basically begging to be caught and it still took LE as long as it did.

Just watched this last night. It was laughable how far they were in over their heads. I’m wondering how Ja-Rule came away unscathed. I thought he was some sort of partner or investor. Oh well. I guess I’m old fashioned but hanging out with a bunch of pretentious douche bags listening to music generated by a computer doesn’t really sound like a fun time to me.

Counting down the days to the return of Santa Clarita Diet:

Timothy Olyphant is the goat, and Drew Barrymore is surprisingly tolerable/good with the dark humor.

Just FYI...
Netflix has now officially cancelled each of it's Marvel series (Daredevil 3 seasons, Jessica Jones 3 seasons and the third hasn't even come out yet, Luke Cage 2 seasons, and Iron Fist 2 seasons). Not sure where any of these end up going forward, but the completed seasons will likely still show on Netflix since they produced them in part. Theories on the shows' future range from just ending, someone like Daredevil jumping to the the movies, they could continue on Disney's new streaming service when it comes out, and I have even heard Hulu.

It won't be on Disney+. Disney+ won't have any R or MA content. The edgiest stuff will be the MCU films.

Steve Harrington still the reigning GOAT. Hopper a close 2nd.

For real though, his character arc through the first two seasons was one of the more enjoyable and rewarding that I've seen, show or movie. They did a good job of not just making him go from "bad guy" to "good guy," but they did it through a realistic portrayal of showing how adolescence can make some kids douchebags, and how experiences thereafter can cause personal growth.

I hope they don't ruin it by making him a caricature of "older guy is super nerdy and friends with younger nerds."

Also, looks like Nancy and Jonathan are about to go super Asshole Mode, and bring the weight of the media down on the town... though it could be intentional misdirection, and they could be going to blow the whistle on what looks to be a creepy new mayor in town.
