@Mizmazzle So much good stuff to explore on HBO. Holy smokes. What a treasure trove.

@Matt said in TV:

I keep meaning to watch Barry.

This would be a good time to watch it as,when it was running,it was affected by Covid and the writers strike. So there were occasionally long breaks between seasons. We’d have to go back and rewatch stuff just to figure out what was going on.

[seawolf]

How most of us probably feel a lot of the time, eh @Mizmazzle ?

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf it’s funny, I’ve had the very same look on my face twice in the last couple weeks when someone referred to my 33B as a jacket

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle I get compliments on my "jackets" all the time (33 and 62 in particular). Inside I'm always saying "it's just a shirt!" I guess people can't fathom wearing denim as anything other than a jacket, so from that perspective, it makes sense. And it always confuses me. Like, where did you grow up that you look at a relatively lightweight garment with snaps and say "that's a jacket."?

Anyway, I saw this guy earlier in the episode and they made fun of him for his vest a little. I related to Steve right away. Then this scene happened and I got my phone out to take some pics of the interaction because it cracked me up.

[Mizmazzle]

@seawolf love Seinfeld so much!! Love that episode. Doesn’t the denim guy reject Elaine later in the episode?

[seawolf]

@Mizmazzle Me too! Yeah, he gives here a fake number at the end of this scene. I'm nearly done with my millionth watch-through of the whole series.

[mclaincausey]

Kevin from Kids in the Hall. And she only wanted his number for non-romantic reasons.

My favorite comedy show of ever until It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia came along.

[seawolf]

@mclaincausey That's where I recognized him from! Thank you, it was driving me nuts, but not enough to pull out my phone and look him up. I need to pick up it's always sunny again. Such a great show.

Have you seen Welcome to Wrexham yet?

[mclaincausey]

@seawolf love Wrexham but need to catch up on it

[Mizmazzle]

Now that we have HBO I’ve been digging into Curb Your Enthusiasm.
Guess I’ve seen a lot more of it than I realized. On season 4 and still know all the episodes. Think the last few will still be new to me.

[seawolf]

@mclaincausey it’s so good, right? I love the storytelling and the chemistry between Rob and Ryan.

[mclaincausey]

Exactly. They’re just such funny and charismatic dudes what’s not to love?

Re-watched Fargo season2, absolutely brillant IMO.

[DeeDee85]

@endo Fargo season 2 is my pick of the bunch and could well be my all time favourite season of TV. Only True Detective season one and Band of Brothers have stuck with me as much.

[endo]

@DeeDee85 Agree on True Detective season one and I should see Band of Brothers.

[DeeDee85]

@endo Definitely a must see, I loved it just as much the second time round a few years down the line

Been watching the rookie and also the new season of squid game the past few now nights

[Seul]

New WALLACE AND GROMIT "A Vengeance Most Fowl" is absolutely crackin'.... It's on NETFLIX I think... It was aired on BBC a couple of days ago.

1883 - FANTASTIC.
1923 - so bad in comparison. Probably won't bother with the upcoming 2nd season.
YELLOWSTONE and LANDMAN are next.
BOILING POINT: you could watch the movie before watching the series, but it's not necessary.
It is, however, very necessary to watch the 4-episode first season. Forget about THE BEAR.

[seawolf]

@Seul Oh man. I'm excited for 1883 now. Yellowstone is good. I think you'll like it. What didn't you like about The Bear?
