A couple years behind on this but while traveling we started and finished American Crime Story, The People vs. OJ Simpson. And damn did I enjoy that that.

Evil Genius. Doc about the pizza delivery guy who robbed a bank with a collar bomb around his neck in Erie, PA.

Really enjoyed that as well. I was just graduating HS at the time of the incident and never paid much attention to it. So, going through it, essentially, for the first time, made it that much better.

Just finished this... it was good. I was a bit taken back tho by the final outcome. What actually happened was less evil genuis and more just bumbling nerds... I expected some omg twist that proved these people were masterminds, nope just arrogant bumbling reds.

Just finished S1 of Fauda last night. It's a series based on the Israel / Palestine back and forth. Good story, cast, and pacing. All around good stuff. The Israeli female operative, and the Palestinian doctor are smoking hot. English and Arabic language. Probably will start S2 tomorrow.

Started and finished "The Five", the wifes choice, and it was much better than expected.

Just started Black Mirror on Monday evening and we are 3 episodes in, considering there are 4 seasons, I am looking for feedback on the show. Does it get better? More of the same? etc. So far I've enjoyed 2 of the 3 episodes but unsure if I could do 4 seasons with no connecting storylines. Any insight is much appreciated.

Watched The Five two Decembers ago while spending Christmas in FL. Thought it was a pretty good flick. Wasn't expecting much, but enjoyed it. Sky1 actually has some pretty decent series. IIRC, they are making a second season called "The Four", but not sure when it airs.

There are some episodes that are too good not to watch. I would recommend googling "best black mirror episodes" and watch the top 10 in some random order. The Jon Hamm episode is one of the best and there are countless others that I think are definitely worth watching. Many of them are over an hour long so just treat it like watching a movie.

Great, I think that's what we'll do. Thanks.

Curious, have you watched all of them?

No not at all. It's a really good show, Snoop does a lot for the kids.

I was just kidding. I've always loved Snoop. He's a fixture on my mega mix 100 playlist. I'll have to check it out. My buddy also told me to check out his cooking show.

I enjoyed it. The interviews w/ the serial killers is interesting. My dad worked at Stateville Penitentiary when Richard Speck was there on death row. Said he had a maniacal laugh. Years later Speck was on video doing some sick stuff for drugs & money. I’ve always been interested in sociopaths and their personal backgrounds.

I haven't seen all of the episodes from the newest season. There are only a couple I didn't enjoy overall though.

I heard some folks talking about it but haven't seen any trailers. Chris Pine as Robert the Bruce right? Is it a series or movie?

You OK with Pine playing an angry Scotsman?

Watch Maniac. Jonah Hill, Emma Stone, and Justin Theroux in a psychological SciFi thriller.

Watched the series The Haunting of Hill House. Pretty good.

Have been holding on off Maniac. Is it that good?

Fantastic. In a vacuum, it's probably only "very good," but it's so different than anything else out there that it's elevated to amazing.

Think Ray Bradbury meets Inception.

is it constantly "shifting" and "bending" type of stuff? I've seen too many of those shows that weren't worth the grey matter effort in trying to follow along.
