ChiefsPlanet - Movies and TV Must Watch Series

I watched the first few seasons. It's pretty decent. The bondage/kink stuff was weird. But it was good enough to keep me engaged. I should probably go finish it up.

I've watched all 6 seasons. They all pretty much blend together as derivatives of each other until the last couple when there are some changes.

It's okay. I wouldn't say it's jumped the shark and I'll probably always watch it because it's my profession and there's an amusement factor. But the dialogue gets to be insanely pedantic and the storyline is just meh.

If you're looking for shows to watch, The Patient, White Lotus season 2, and any of the Fargo seasons are recent ones that have grabbed me.

Yeah, when I quit, it had just started it's own fund and was still pretty compelling.

Given how many seasons it went after that it's hard for me to believe it didn't get pretty derivative given how far they went with each character in the first few seasons, but it's earned the right for me to get back to it.

Season 4 is starting out to be the best so far IMO.

The English. Totally not what I was expecting from a Western.

This has been really good.

I'm on episode five or six of 1899 and it was infuriating at first how many times somebody asked a question and then the other person walked away or they cut to another scene but that's a minor gripe. Way better than that German show Dark

I've watched three episodes so far but can't really get into it. I think there's only six total so I'll finish it but hasn't been my cup of tea yet.

Vikings is so ****ing good. Season 4 is some of the best television I’ve watched. Just very well written and acted.

I finished it last night and can say I wasn't expecting it to go the way it did. Not that it gets any more exciting per se, its more of a story development.

Its a western that's not really a western yet captures the brutality of the wild west in a way I appreciated. Probably just the right amount of episodes before I would've started checking out though.

Finished "The Watcher." An interesting story line and suspense didn't lead to much else past episode 3. I give it a "Meh" rating.

Agreed. The show peeked early on and then kinda died a slow death. By the end i just felt like i wasted my time

I've been binge watching "What We Do in the Shadows" for the past week or so on Hulu. Hilarious show.

Yeah, so I should have waited until this was finished before I started it. I'm not sure I can wait a month to finish it out. I also didn't know it was based on a novel.

I don't know how I'm going to feel about the conclusion of the show, but the interim is damned enthralling.

It is an interesting choice that the Libby character is the narrator for the story. The writing is pretty tight, and there is some facepalmy stuff when Eisenberg gets preachy. I don't know if that was the intention or not. Bot some of it is pretty tight like the comment about "I make 300K that would be a great living anywhere except the 40 blocks you insist we live." Most of the dialogue is really tight.

The 90's stuff is cheeky enough to be funny and keep it light. Eisenberg does a really REALLY good job on the performance. Same with Lizzy Caplan and Claire Danes, plus a TED sighting. It wound me up enough I restarted Homeland to get some more Claire Danes Action. She was really good. Damned compelling even.

Anyway, it's a nice look at the nuance of humanity.

This show is amazing.

And this latest episode released today - Me Time - is on par with any TV episode I’ve seen in a long, long time.

Claire Danes is ****ing brilliant. What a great show.

Queing it up now. I never knew when it posted. Thanks.

I'm a pretty good sized Claire Daines homer, so you're preaching to the chorr a bit there bud. :)

Yeah, the shit is heavy. I'm not sure I expected that. At least THAT heavy.
