Sherlock has been re-running on one of the PBS stations lately. I'd forgotten how good and fun it was.

If anyone hasn't seen it, it's a really good recasting of the old stories (with some tweaks) to modern times. Any fan of the stories would probably like this quite a bit.

are you watching it exclusively or doing other things on the side?

there's too many characters and subplots and it can't be casually taken in as a result - it wasn't until my 2nd effort at watching it that it began to click and even then it always takes a while before i have any clue who the new characters are

I was watching it exclusively, but after 5-6 hours nothing interesting happened. It felt like a chore after a few episodes. Wonder if I stopped just a bit too early.


The Wire should have had more Batman characters

You may not like the style even when watching it's best example. I am having the same reaction to Yellowjackets.


Paradise is a 7.5 that could have been a 9 if the writers weren't so trigger happy.

S1 could have fit into 2 seasons and been better. But still very enjoyable.


a thousand blows, trailer looks amazing (comes out this week)

so you probably didnt like TOP BOY or the shield?

im the same with anything war related, i couldnt get paid to watch bands of brothers.


A Gentleman in Moscow is great through the five episodes I've seen. Ewan McGregor plays an an aristocrat stripped of his titles and wealth and forced into lifelong house arrest in a Moscow hotel during the Bolshevik Revolution. I'm surprised I've seen no one mention it here.

Think my take more or less stands regardless. The final 3 episodes won't change much there.

I mentioned it in passing when it first started but I forgot to finish it. Thanks for the reminder lol


I liked it. Hard to live up to the book though. Ewan McGregor's always great.

Same.


Crazy that Severance is arguably better the second time.

Redid S1 before starting S2. What a work of art. So many little subtle things in the background on so many scenes.

Excited for the new White Lotus too.


First 5 minutes of White Lotus S3 and Parker Posey absolutely pops off the screen. What an incredible character...really her whole family shows a lot of potential

Weird seeing Baby Billy being a cantankerous unfunny a-hole though


I feel sorry for you guys that wait until entire seasons are over and even worse who wait for entire series to be over. lol



I feel sorry for you guys that get invested in a show that ends it's season on a cliffhanger then gets canceled. I'll watch White Lotus. I've watched the other seasons. I love shows like that where each season is a new story. Fargo's one of my favorites of all time. True Detective.

i slogged through an entire season of high quality tv where nothing happens and just built up of Rubicon hoping for a payoff and then it got canceled


Sarah Connor Chronicles did it for me


The OA :(


A show that was an exact opposite is "Heroes". That thing kept getting renewed while I wished it was canceled.
