We have a love/hate relationship with The Bear. The kitchen chaos is very well rendered, but it’s super-stressful to watch sometimes. Other times it’s so overwrought we can’t hang. Just watched the 1st episode of season 3 last night, and it was sooo pretentious and boring. Hope it picks back up again.
My main beef with the show is I can’t believe it got put into the comedy category for awards shows, and subsequently robbed the likes of Abbott Elementary proper recognition for true comic excellence.
-
@sabergirl I don’t get the comedy classification either,but I blame that on the people that give out the awards. I’ve already watched season 3 and will wait until others have finished it to comment.
-
@Giles agreed on the Blue Lights. We are 4 episodes into s2 and it’s all been excellent.
-
More so listened to but we watched recent Netflix doc release, man of 1,000 children, on a mini road trip home yesterday. What in the actual fuck.

Presumed Innocent on Apple is worth a watch. And I also started watching My Lady Jane on Prime and really enjoying it!
-
@Mizmazzle shogun is so awesome, I will watch it for a second time
-
Shogun have good time

Late to it but everyone who gave baby reindeer a shout out a couple months
Binged it this weekend and fairly certain it’ll be one of those that lingers. -
Has anyone by any chance seen a show,on Amazon Prime, called Jury Duty? The set up is an alleged documentary on what it's like to be on a jury,but everyone,but this one guy, is an actor. They remind you of this at the beginning of every episode. Just brilliantly done and quite funny at times. Just one season.

Been binging a lot of late (quitting smoking has me doing a lot of other things to excess to ease my mind off, and yes, it’s been much easier
). LOVED Baby Reindeer. HATED Fool Me Once (really Giles? a re-watch??) and now recently finished up Gentlemen.
Guy Ritchie has been hit or miss of late for me and that is most likely attributed to the bar being set too high coming out w classics like Lock Stock and Snatch. About midway through episode 1, you know you’re in for that magic Ritchie can sometimes bring and it does not let up. Again, very late to it, but if you’ve been holding off like I was, know that this is a special one in the queue.
What to watch next everyone?
I’ve heard decent things on Supacell. Did not watch last season of Umbrella Academy and been thinking of watching w the finale coming out. Been saving the last two seasons of The Boys like fine wine. And just watched Decameron trailer, looks ace. -
I apparently needed to re-visit RECTIFY, which is one of my favourite shows... Not the easiest watch, but so rewarding...

I’m currently watching Pachinko on Apple TV. Up there with the best I’ve watched this year. Amazing cast & acting, superb sets & locations.
The blurb:
Based on the New York Times bestseller, this sweeping saga chronicles the hopes and dreams of a Korean immigrant family across four generations as they leave their homeland in an indomitable quest to survive and thrive.
