I finally binge watched Breaking Bad earlier this year. Then moved on all seasons of Better call Saul. I like BCS more than Breaking Bad. Can't wait for a new season to begin!

Recently binge watched both seasons of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. I really loved this show and can't wait for another season of it as well. It's sort of like Mad Men with the beautiful clothes & people but it centers around stand up dirty comedy routines during the Lenny Bruce era. A Lenny Bruce character occasionally appears on there as well.
I love the funny writing, amazing stylish clothing and old NYC vibe from back in the good old days.

I watched "Dumplin" which is totally a chick flick centered around Dolly Parton but I liked it a lot.

I watched the "Ballad of Buster Scruggs" by the Coen Brothers. I grew up watching westerns on tv and thought this would be something like that. It has a few funny moments and its unpredictable swinging back and forth between humorous and freaking vicious as hell. It's selection of 6 short stories and some of it takes too long to get around to the point and I found it somewhat boring. Out of 5 stars I would give it 2.5
loved breaking bad, tried to watch bcs, couldn't get past like the first 3 episodes or so.. super slow moving compared to bb imvho..
watch a lot of vera, love her, broadchurch was good too.. the fall, the killing, the last detective, been re-watching some lost.. umm, some stuff on britbox like the last detective, dci banks, a lot of british pi / cop stuff..

Check out Jack Taylor on netflix. Alcoholic Irish ex cop turned private investigator. Good watch

Nah not that heavy imo. Give the first episode a go. about hour long episodes but I understood it fine. Plus, accents are hot on hot chicks, usually.
Thanks.

Thats cool. I'll look more into this one.

I have started watching a video just to turn it off when the accent became to heavy to understand.
I guess those are more for the local viewing audience than the world stage.

"Whitney" I just watched this and thought all the time it was going to be a actress re-enactment of her life vs. a documentary type of movie. Really sad such a star ending up broke (as many of them do). I just read today that Aretha Franklin's estate owes miliions in back taxes to IRS. Bobby Brown was a smug asshole in the movie. Whitney's brothers came clean about everyone's drug use but Brown didn't. Worth watching if you want to know more about her life.

"A Kid Like Jake" and "Mandy", couldn't watch more than 10 min of each. Mandy got good reviews but I don't see how.

"Predator" another rerun, CGI was good but I wouldn't have paid to go see it in a movie theater

"Yellowstone" season 1 Is Kostner going broke and has to do TV now? I guess I'll watch S2 but only because of him. Kinda Longmirey and Bonanza in one. Generally got good reviews

"Westworld" season 2. I want to bang the chief female robot lead but I'll watch S3. Glad Hopkins made it back. Got great reviews

"Peppermint" Jennifer Garner kicks some ass, glad she made some kind of comeback. Didn't get very good reviews. I liked her in series "Alias"

Watching S4 of Rizolloi and Isles now. Yes I'd bang Angie Harmon

Couldn't get into "Instinct" S1 or "The Orville" S1 at first but they are on the back burner for later

I didn't like Saul first few episodes either but it gets better if you keep at it. Fall is great. You don't expect Gillian Anderson in the role. "Line of Duty", "Luther", "Inspector Lewis" and "Whitechapel" are good. "Ripper Street" about ole Jack way back when is good too.

There's a shitton of Brit cop shows I didn't know about, list here:
