Just too many talented people involved in it for it to not be good. Bill Lawrence and Vince Vaughn are just powerhouses. And man...Rosa...that is a very nice lookin' woman right there. Sadly, no gratuitous nudity.

I finished the Recruit S 2. Mother of GOD that is a ridiculous show, but I'll be damned if I didn't enjoy it.
I'll stop short of good, but it's damn enjoyable. |

Seeing Vince Vaughn do his thing is satisfying like watching Billy Bob in Landman. |

Do yourself a favor if you haven't already and put Lioness in your queue. Another Taylor Sheridan creation with two seasons available. The first season was pretty solid and enjoyable, it pulled me into the story quickly; the second season was absolutely amazing, brutal, and very binge-worthy. I love the story told of behind the scenes look at government thought processes and decisions to go along with the stories of the operators forced to make the decisions reality. A+ cast, too - Zoe Saldana, Nicole Kidman, Morgan Freeman, Michael Kelly, Jill Wagner, Genesis Rodriguez, and Laysla de Oliviara. And they all nail their roles.
Highly recommend. |

I watched the first season of Lioness. I thought it was decent enough. I'll get to the second season pretty quick.
Maybe I wasn't paying attention but I missed/got lost on some of the grey ops guys and why everybody was pissed off all the time. I dunno that part missed the mark.
Spoiler!

I thought the attitude of the QRF grays is that they're just burned out war junkies that can't quit the fight, at least that's how I compartmentalized it. |

Zoe Saldana and this ****ing bizarre Emilia Perez bullshit is just...gone. I'm out on her for awhile. Seriously -- what the **** even is this? And then the tranny that plays the lead (who is a murdering sociopath who is 'redeemed' by having a sex-change) has {gasp} opinions on social media and we get the standard wailing hollywood bullshit about...well all the usual wailing hollywood bullshit stuff. Nope. Like Saldana. Will probably like her again someday. Just can't deal with her at the moment.

Completely forgot about that movie and her role in it, lol. Her portrayal in that movie is about 180 degrees from what she does in Lioness, but I get it. That movie was from the depths of woke Hollywood's fever dreams, and I can't believe an entire studio thought it would be a good idea to create, much less a profitable venture...
And to be fair, Lioness has a good deal of girl power elements in it as well, but it's not distracting from the story being told to get the woke message included, imo. There is a very butch woman on the team (Jill Wagner), actually two and a bi-curious woman now that I think about it, but again, the casting and the storytelling just works. For me, anyway. |

I like looking at Zoe Saldana regardless of the acting.

Heh. I have no clue what you guys are talking about but it reinforces my decisions to limit social media and pop culture exposure.

There are certainly things about Saldana that I would more than happily have rubbed in my face.
She is quite attractive...

I’m watching silo finally after seeing it here. Second season where she meets solo is where I’m at. Really enjoying it so far, lots of storylines and how depressing it would be to live in that environment and what she must’ve thought when she got over that hill and looked around. Yikes.

This dumb paparazzi dude on TMZ was trying to hit on her and suck up to her ability to speak Spanish, she completely shut him down and didn't give him the time of day it was hilarious, that made me want her even more.
