What are you watching?

This may have already been posted as Must See Television... But I can't believe I just learned of Its existence recently. The power that 'Slimey' Roger Ailes (FOX NEWS) still has over the media Is astounding!

I'm an up the middle Lib and anyone who complains about Fox is simply the same narrow minded person on the opposite end of the spectrum... which basically means every other network.

They are all 'slmiey' hypnotists offering infotainment in place of information.

I was the top sales person for a decade at one of the largest media companies. These networks are the experts of packaging & persuasion. MSNBC, CNN, FOX, ABC, NBC, CBS... all garbage. All push agenda over fact. Why? Facts are boring. Imagine someone under 70 watching a Walter Cronkite newscast. Bwahahahahahaha.

Started watching Sneaky Pete starring Giovanni Ribisi on Prime. Up through S1 E8. I'm liking it.

I started watching Tiger King today. Pretty wild and interesting so far.

Anyone have Fox Nation? She does and I watched for the first time tonight - a Nancy Grace show about Epstein’s suicide.

Not a great first impression but it was alright. My complaint is it’s one sided AF, drives the theory hard but no one argues the other side of the story.

Not fair nor balanced? Go figure.

You'll have to wait for MSNBC, CNN, ABC, NBC or CBS to get the flipside of the piece.

Exactly. It’d be nice if we could ball those up to create a “truly balanced” channel. But then it’d look like the IE Political place.

ND vs FSU 93' "Game of the Century" courtesy of NBC vault. It is amazing as it now as it was in 1993 watching it live with my grandfather.

My thoughts on the game now in retrospect:

ND stadium looks so much different than the two updates it has had since then.

How the hell did I play football with shoulder pads that big?

Charlie Ward was way ahead of his time. If he was born 15 years later would have a different career.

Same can be said of the FSU offense. Using pre read option spread concepts in their first three plays.

OJ was a sideline reporter lol

Just finished Sneaky Pete on Amazon. It got better as it went along. Highly recommend it.

The wife and I started watching Little Fires Everywhere (Hulu) with Reese Weatherspoon. Not bad, but not on par with Ozarks, Sneaky Pete, etc. Wife enjoys it, so this is where I let her have her way. lol

BTW......Reese is still cute as a button.

Reminder to Bosch fans, new season starts Friday on Amazon.

For any fans of Fauda (basically Israel vs Palestine drama), S3 starts Thursday on NF. If you're OK with subs, it's a fantastic show all around.

Sergio (NF movie) with the guy who played Escobar in Narcos (Wagner Moura) starts Friday as well. Several good actors, and Ana de Armas is always yummy.

Yup, she is. Washington is smokin'. I watched E1 when it first started, but shelved it till all eps are available.

The Death of Stalin was a solid flick.

I honestly don't get the Ozark's hard on. My GF loves it too and I just can't figure why. Have tried but can't stick with it. Maybe it's just me...doubt it though.

It took me a while to warm up to S1, but eventually loved it. Did you watch the entire first season, or give up?.

I tried real hard but couldn't last the first season. She's on season rewatch now...and it stays repeat. She does that, binge watches for the first time then plays that as she works. I'd rather work to silence.

I did a rewatch of S1 before S2 came out, and actually enjoyed S1 much more the 2nd time. Not sure if I wasn't paying attention the first time, or what. Anyway, I almost gave up on it too, but gutted it out, and it's now one of my favorite shows.

I have been watching a lot of hunting shows on all these outdoor channels. Now I want to go hunting lol.

I have no idea where to start though. I have enough land for rabbitts and other varmints. I don't know anyone who has enough land for deer, turkey or boar.

Watched The Outsider on HBO and enjoyed it a lot.

Also started Fargo on FX and it is fantastic

Is this well worth the watch? I'd never heard of it until I saw your post and after looking it up, realized I've read all the books it's based on. Harry Bosch is a great cop character and I loved Connelly's books. I'm afraid to watch the show and be disappointed if they don't live up to the books.

I’m proud to say I made it through two seasons of House of Cards. Great show but my attention span only runs so deep...

Claire was plenty enough to keep me interested. Would love to run deep in that.

Excellent news.

Started watching Justified as recommended by ThePiombino. Very good. Even though he's a USC guy, I've always been a fan of Timothy Olyphant since Deadwood. Highly recommend it.

This plus Jack's better than Brozinni's explains it all. lol

too bad this year's season of Fargo has been postponed. Great show for sure.

Just finished Briarpatch. Was pretty good, not great.

Justified rocks. Hell on Wheels is also a great show that gave me a similar vibe.
