Justified is fan-f***ing-tastic. Timothy Olyphant and Walton Goggins. Can't beat it.

Looked up Olyphant on wiki. Went to SC on a swimming scholarship (insert Varsity Blue joke here) and wanted to study Architecture but was told it wouldn't work with his training schedule. So it's not only football/basketball that gets steered to Kinesiology and such, though it worked out for him obviously.

He's also part of the Vanderbilt family.

I liked it for the reasons you didn't. Inglrorius Bastards meets Man in the High Castle, meets Reservoir Dogs. Very Tarantino.

nah man. just nah....

Sick of having to reboot/upgrade Kodi.

I'm going Hulu for Seinfeld and to dump cable in general.

Are you using a Firestick?
I have almost zero issues with Kodi. I upgrade the core Kodi ap once or twice a year (very easy with uploader), and the add ons (I really only use Exodus and Exodus Redux this days) need simple/quick (30 secs) updates once or twice month. Can't remember the last time I had to reboot. I use it at lest 4-5 times a week.

Finished Hunters. Started great, then went down hill for me.
It tried to be too much. Serious, funny, funky, musical, etc..
I wish they would have just gone with "serious".
Didn't care for the ending reveal. The very end (table scene in Argentina) is telegraphing season 2 (perhaps a Boys from Brazil type narrative) maybe?

Agree, should have went the serious route with this topic.

Still watching and it has its moments, but overall C- .

I'd say C+ or B- for me. Quality, but could have been so much more IMO. Adding AH or a Boys from Brazil in S2 could be really good though even with their "style"

Anyone watch "The Pharmacist"? True story on OxyContin and eye opening. Worth your time. Four part series on Netflix.

It Is a good series.
It's a shame that a boy had to die in order to force a father to see what was going on. (funny that the DEA/FBI said they were all over It.)
The problem with It Is when people get off the drugs that they had to get on after the Dr's prescribed them to a life of substantial drug abuse. (Not everyone understood the issues that would accompany opioids 20 years ago).
Suboxone and Methadone are just handcuffs for patients after the lack of information associated with the original prescriber of heroin. It's CRIMINAL!

In my opinion, the Dr. that abuses his/her power, to make money off of the pharmaceutical way of dealing drugs should be penalized harsher than the crack dealer trying to make a living. Hippocratic Oath should be enforced.
It's not apples and oranges any longer..


Has anyone watched The Force? (Netflix) It's a reality type show about The Oakland, CA Police Force trying to change their own identity after years of missteps.

I can’t believe how that doctor ran that pill mill at night for so long without the authorities doing anything. You have to be impressed with the pharmacist and his conviction to make something happen.

The whole situation hits very close to home for me. It's very sad.

Almost finished with season 2 of The Sopranos. Holy cow this show is great! Pure gold across the board. Tony's mother is a serious piece of work. Even I want to whack her or see her get thrown down a flight of stairs.

 

[Irish#1]

Wrapped up Hunters. Ended up better than it started. I'll move it from a C- to a B-. If there's a S2 I wonder if they will go after a big name to play a significant role?

I can't recall a series with such a vast amount of great characters with solid depth. Agree on Livia.

A true pain in the ass.

All this show needs is Harvey Keitel to take over for Pacino, Steve Buscemi to become Carol Kane's love interest/partner and to rescue Joe down in South America, I'm sending in Tomer Sisley (The Messiah), Steven Bauer (Ray Donovan) and of course, Oscar Isaac.

When they get to South America they run into not only Lena Olin but here daughter... Angelina Jolie.

And somewhere, I have to find a place for Christopher Walken. I'm thinking some sort of eccentric Bilderberger, 34th Degree Master Mason, possessor of the Arc of the Covenant sorta guy who lives inbetween/above the two opposing sides.

And I don't wanna hear about budgets, Ole Jeffy-pooh can afford all of them + Daniel Day Lewis as the Messiah from the interest he makes in 15 minutes.

I actually thought while watching, that Bauer should have been in the series lol.

Walken would be tremendous.

Alex Curry was away from the Angels for a much of the season last year due to the WWC and other events. She's back...

that's what I'm watching,...

Has anyone watched Briarpatch?

watched the first two episodes, but have a few waiting on the DVR.
pretty good cast, and like the noir vibe.

 

[Irish YJ]

Hillary the miniseries comes out Hulu tomorrow I think. Can't wait!


ZeroZeroZero comes out tomorrow on Amazon Prime. I've watched the first 6 episodes already on Sky, and it's good stuff. Global (US/NOLA, Italy, Mexico, Africa) drama about the drug trade. Goes back and forth between 3 groups (US Middlemen, Mexican cartel supplier, Italian buyer) with pretty good character depth. All 8 episodes available tomorrow.

Just curious - do you ever sleep? Just wondering how you find enough time to watch all these shows. Lol. Seems like you’ve seen them all along with sports on TV.

I sleep 5-6 hours typically a night lol. I try to watch 2 eps a day. I can normally knock one out in the AM on the treadmill/email. Another one when I hit the pillow. I don't watch any reality stuff or really any comedies. Very routine during the week when I can be. Weekends are a wildcard. Cold and rainy the last month, so more time to be lazy... I've traveled a lot too, which always means killing time.

Richard Jewell
Great Movie.

Bob. He had that intro to my favorite game. He should be the 17million dollar man NBC hires for our NBC.

The Movie 'Richard Jewell" also puts the feminist movement into perspective. "If you sleep around for the grime, the grime will stay under your acrylic nails".

I am the opposite. I think it started around a B or B+ even and then fell to a C- or D+ later on. It got better in the last episode or so, but the show just had no clue what it wanted to be. I was okay with some of the flashbacks to the camps, but some of the more ridiculous musical or game show stuff was pointless and took away from the show.

Agree. You can get away with that in a lot of shows, but the subject of the Holocaust really doesn't allow much leeway.

Just finished ZeroZeroZero on Amazon. 8.2 on IMDB and 91% RT
Great show, and loved the ending (can't say that about most shows).
In my top 5 from the last couple years. Really hope they do a S2.

The writer is the guy responsible for Gomorrah, and is still under guard from the Italian Mafia. Interesting story in itself.
