    Valid point.

    Just watched the first episode of Showtime's "Wolf of Wall Street", Black Monday, with Don Cheadle & Regina Davis.

    Damn good and very funny, in a black (no pun intended) kind of way.

    If anyone wants to learn how not to run a music festival the new documentary on Netfix about the Fyre Festival debacle in the Bahamas is worth a watch. It was a music festival set up for rich douchebags that went horribly wrong.

    Agreed. I've definitely been won over by the first three episodes.
    Please don't ask questions, just use google.

    Got this one on my list. Probably watch it next weekend.

    Watched Bird Box yesterday. It's ok. Kinda like a longer, not quite as good , episode of Black Mirror. A little far fetched on the river though....

    Yes, my wife and I were both commenting on that too. Whoever is doing the makeup also deserves an Emmy. Often when they try to make someone look older it does not really work, but he certainly looks genuine.

    It is a pretty scary series because it is a damn realistic presentation of todays tensions en problems between cultural groups that are present in most Western European cities. Apart from that it is also a pretty good crime series.

    Will check it out, thanks!

    Wow, Victoria is excellent this season (season 3). It has been all along, but this is a particularly good season, I really like the guy who plays Lord Palmerston, and tonight's episode was quite sad and surprising....

    I'm planning on watching it when I get done with a few other things, since I love Lyonne on "Orange Is...".

    I love her on that show, too, as well as in the movie American Pie. I looked up Russian Doll, just now, and discovered it was created by Lyonne, Amy Poehler, and Leslye Headland (no idea who she is).

    I also found out last autumn that Lyonne is in a relationship with Fred Armisen. They seem like an odd pair.

    Fred Armisen with ANY woman seems like an odd pairing...

    Got that show on my list. Got too many to work my way through but will get to it. Still have 2 episode of "You" and while it seems more for young adults, I am still liking it.

    Yesterday I watched the Fyre Festival documentary... What a clusterfuck that was! And they didn't cancel until the people actually arrived...insane!

    Hilarious! Thanks Dave for moving it up on my radar.

    "Y" aka "Y:The Last Man" has been officially ordered to Series for the FX Network.

    the only down part about that news is, it won't premiere until 2020.

    I'm very much into this new season of True Detective, but man is it moving slow. Hoping it picks up soon...starting to get antsy! Kinda wish I waited to binge it.

    Only three episodes left. It has to pick up soon, right?
