      Yeah, that one was unexpectedly awesome. Thanks to @EdH for turning me onto that.

        We watched the 1st season of The AfterParty on Apple and really liked it.

          I’m also a Wednesday fan. I have a soft spot for shows about teenagers solving mysteries. I’m sure it’s residual from growing up in the 80s.

            @Matt You're welcome.

            I'm hoping that Ghost of Yotei will give me similar vibes when it comes out later this year. Blue Eye Samurai was great.

            Take the dive...

              A couple of recommends from us:

              Smoke on AppleTV+ - good cop drama about an arson investigator and police detective assigned to help him partnering up to catch two serial arsonists.
              Sandman Season 2 on Netflix - seems to be following the story fairly faithfully from what I can remember having read it 20 years ago. Neil Gaiman's mythology-hopping fantasy madness at its finest.

              Take the dive...

                I watched the AMC Interview with the Vampire series over the last week or two and enjoyed it.

                The show is a cover version or remix of the original novel: Louis is a Creole pimp at the turn of the twentieth century, rather than being a white plantation owner a hundred or more years earlier; Claudia is older and black; and Daniel Molloy, the interviewer, is aged up and gives off definite Anthony Bourdain vibes, whereas the original could be replaced by "an Anderson Cooper cardboard cutout" according to one website I saw.

                I think that it's cleverer than the books. There's a line in "The Vampire Lestat" where Lestat accuses Louis of twisting the story to suit an agenda, but the series takes this idea of unreliable narrators and runs with it as a more central theme.

                      I don't give a shit about the controversy surrounding the cover of the book, funnily enough I have more important things to worry about, but I absolutely loved Lessons in Chemistry on Apple TV.....

                        Finished Sandman (one of my all time fav comics). More controversies aside, enjoyed the adaptation. Wish Preacher had the same treatment when it was turned into a tv series. Thought it was decent in places but found it lost its way.

                        Sat here a little anxious about the Buffy revival. When the show ended, the seasons continued as a comic, with Joss Whedon's (more controversy) involvement. Guessing they're about to bin the canon for something new. Bit difficult to bring back certain characters too considering vampires dont age.

                        Elsewhere, Alien Earth continues to marvel. And Dexter Resurrection has been hugely entertaining.

                            Wife and I are finally starting to tackle our impossibly long watchlist and decided to begin with The Bear. 2 episodes in and we both like it but is it always so stressful?

                              @SKT Buckle up! The chaos/stress is intrinsic to the shows overall energy. Either you like it or you don't. I probably liked it the most of anybody on this thread.

                                      Anyone else watching and have thoughts on "Black Rabbit" with Jude Law and Jason Bateman?

                                      My wife and I are watching it and nearly have given up 4 episodes in. Allie especially dislikes shows that have no "release". It's just one bad thing happening after another. There's no one to root for, just a shit ton of moody green colored (lighting comment) mishaps on repeat.

                                          Gomorrha is absolute cinema. Early seasons especially. The type of show where no character is 'safe' from being killed off. If you watch this, make sure to watch The Immortal (inbetween seasons 4 and 5).

                                          Have been considering re-watching this. However, I'm also due a Sopranos rewatch (which is basically a yearly thing).

                                            @jordanscollected it has now release but I enjoyed it.

                                            Designed to be that way, and definitely an acquired taste. Like Ozark and Bloodline. Just levels of intensifying unease with everyone being a baddie.

                                            Broken old houses, boring Scottish whisky, weird Japanese denim, all French wine, sad American music, wool socks in summer.
