Have I mentioned "Sharp Objects" here? I love a crime thriller, I love southern gothic and I love slow paced, literary TV that builds character and atmosphere. This show is creepy af and deeply unpleasant, but utterly brilliant.
While not in the same class I'm currently three episodes into "Castle Rock" and that doesn't suck either.
@neph93 now that sounds a bit of Sarah and I. HBO, so probably not on Amazon prime and we refuse to have Netflix. It might be a pay per view for Amazon, I'll check tonight. Thanks for the heads up.

Excellent, glad you got hold of it. The good news is that unlike other great limited series (True Detective S1 is a prime example) this one holds its own right to the very end.

Just starting Season 3 of this. Really enjoyed the last two.

@Madame Buttonfly is loving that…. I have ADD when it comes to watching TV at home, too much else to distract me so I save watching anything apart from the Grand Prix until I am on holiday or on a plane....

Shocked that no one has mentioned The Haunting of Hill House. It’s fantastic.
-
PATRIOT is back… I'm on ep 3 and can confirm that it's every bit as weird, funny, and exciting...
The description on IMDB makes it sound very generic stuff, but it isn't... The 8.3 rating says enough though...

How does James Franco still have a job. He hasn’t sold me on a performance since Pineapple Express.

Damn it. Stitches failed. -
I think the Deuce is still going strong! Really enjoyed the second season.
I'm starting to fear the looming AIDS epidemic.
Yeah, AIDS, and the video format wars I guess. And probably a lot of drugs.
I really enjoyed season 2 also. Hot Ingrid, not so much. She felt it became too documentary and didn’t care enough about the characters or their development, but that side of Simon’s storytelling appeals to me.
The protracted demise of the pimps, the feminist politics and inevitable double standards and the redemption of Larry Brown all were all brilliant and the fact that it was all told with detachment was pleasing. That being said, the last episode was pleasantly sentimental (Darlene and Larry), and the future looks momentarily bright for some of the characters. I’m pretty sure Lori is going to get screwed in CA though (pun intended [emoji847]).
