I was pretty disappointed by the 'IT' remake being a movie... I always thought that story would make one hell of a Netlfix or HBO series... kind of half Wonder years half Twin Peaks, a lot like Stranger Things I guess but for a different era and such. You can't fit all the dynamics of that book into a movie or even mini series, as the terrible 1990 mini series showed...

Has anyone watched the Oklahoma City bombing documentary on Netflix yet? I was way too young to really know anything about the bombing as it was happening. I just always assumed it was done by the Taliban, Al Queda, or someone else in the Middle East (stereotyping, I know). But after watching it, I have a better understanding how effing delusional and nut the white supremacists and neo-Nazis are.

There's a whole "semi underground" society of these wackos running around in our country. It's enough to keep the ATF, FBI and CIA on their toes all the time.

Read about Ted Kaczynski, The Unibomber. I think he came to light shortly after the OKC bombing.

Taboo on Fox/BBC is created by the same guy who created PB. Both worth a look.

Thats a great idea and it may yet happen. If the movie is a success they may do a series. Similar to how they have done Fargo, Hannibal etc.

It was on last night! Unfortunately, I was too busy to dedicate an hour and a half towards it. Look forward to starting tonight.

How you get ACamp to watch an animated series... Step 1: Make it about Castlevania.

If you guys ever get the chance, check out Ricky Gervais' lineup of shows that are on Netflix. The Office, Extras and Derek. Well worth the watch. Maybe you already have, but I chatted with some colleagues at work and no one had seen those. Must see, in my opinion.

Related: I've been binge-watching "An Idiot Abroad." This show is amazing, and the peak-ins from Gervais, just to hear his unique laugh via phone call, are perfect.

Karl Pilkington is like the epitome of dry British humor, and it's amazing.

Anyone watching the new season of House of Cards yet?

I'm about halfway through, so I'll withhold thoughts for now.

Yeah I'm a couple episodes in. If they were smart, they'd have this be the last season. Doubt that'll happen though.

It seems like they're setting up for another season or two, but I'm just now at the halfway point. Anything could happen in a moment's notice and change that lol.

Got the finale to go and mama won't wake up to watch it. Uggh!

The best thing going on tv right now. Hope it never ends. I'm not sure what I will do without Claire and those perfectly tailored pencil skirts.

6 episodes into season 3 of Bloodline. The first episodes were intense.

Finished House of Cards season 5 last night.

Hot Take: It was trash.

Bloodline's finale was terribly disappointing. It didn't necessarily have to end with a bang but it wasn't a terribly in-depth show. It was about how familial patterns are perpetuated until someone breaks the cycle but it needed shock and awe because the writing just wasn't that great.

I'm interested in hearing other's takes. It seemed like they produced 2.5 seasons of content and didn't know how to wrap it up so they just threw some shit on the screen and called it a day.

Sucks to hear, but I'll still watch. Season 2's finale was amazing. Looking forward to season 3.

The season was originally supposed to be 13 or 14 episodes I believe and when it wasn't renewed for season 4 they cut this season down to 10. They had to cut a lot out to wrap it up which made it seem rushed. That's why meg was pretty much non existent.

Due to the enthusiasm shown here for Bloodline, me and the woman sat down and watched S1E1 last night. I hope it gets better.

She asked who reco'd the show and I told her "that Notre Dame football site". She told me to get a new team. lol
