Just finished Perfume on Netflix. It’s got that Euro brutality, elegance combo going. I thought it was great from start to finish (only 6 episodes). True Detective-ish. Highly recommended.

Really? I’ll have to look into that. I thought the previews looked awful

The first episode is a little slow but each episode gets more disturbing. It’s a unique story (though I’m not familiar with the original) for a who done it, with a cinema score and layered storylines. It has some tough to watch moments though which could turn people off.

Has Travelers been discussed? I really like that show

Has anyone made it through Patriot? I've started it 3-4 times now and it still hasn't grabbed me. I've only made 2 1/2 episodes, and am wondering when/if the genius hits. I've heard people rave about it and am willing to be patient if there's a point when it starts coming together. I've had stuff I loved that started slow before. But I'd hate to spend 2 whole seasons with the same level of engagement I have thus far.

An Innocent Man
 

If this is a re-post I apologize.

'An Innocent Man' on Netflix based on the only non-fiction book written by John Grisham. I was sick over the weekend and checked it out-- it's worth your time in my opinion. Small town 'justice' gone way, way wrong.

Since I am a noob, I cannot attach a link. Sorry.

I watched it over the past week as well. Not quite on Making A Murderer's level, but still a crazy story.

You do know that one of the characters lives in KC. His name is Dennis Fritz and he wrote a book called "Journey to Justice". Fritz actively promoted both Grisham's book and Project Innocence and is pictured below with Grisham.

Along with writing and promoting his own book the relationship with Grisham ended, he was challenged by substance abuse issues and now spends much of his time touring the religious circuit. Along with hocking his book, he discusses his relationship with God and shares his experiences with the justice system.

Splitting Up Together is a generic sitcommy networky network sitcom, but it's got a lot of talent behind it. But this isn't so much about the show as a whole, but last night Jenna Fisher gave an all-time cinematic sink and swoon moment when she got hot and bothered by her ex. Totally family-friendly fare, but so hawt nonetheless.

Didn't hurt that it was Jenna
Didn't hurt that Jenna used to be 'Pam'
Didn't hurt she was doing that hip mom wearing overalls thing.

Totally agree with you on this. It was beautifully done.

You're the Worst started back up again last night; season premier for the final season.

Funny, light episode (in a series that had far too few of those over the last couple of years). It's gonna be interesting to see where they go with it because Falk and others simply don't seem to have a happy ending in mind for Gretchen and Jimmy...

Disorienting start. Interesting in the end, but not sure what to think of it [ie, that particular episode] yet.

Frontier with Jason Momoa is badass
