Has anyone sampled 'Guilty Party?' It's a little intriguing, but not for dispositive reasons, so I'm looking for input.
The potential for satire is good, but could easily be butchered [to my tastes]. The prospect of ogling Miss Katie is nearly sufficient in itself, but she's also appearing to try to make a go as a real actress, as opposed to eye-candy. If it works, I'm amenable, but if it sucks, someone warn me. Obligatory, but Kate Beckinsale

Trying to decide whether to check out. Tough to tell if it'll be bonkers bad or bonkers good, but the reviews are coming in and seem promising.

This is eminently worth a check out, I thought I had recommended the first season, but I can't find it right now.
It's pretty much what you get a sense of from the trailer. An odd-duck NYer who has an eye for detail narrating some of his observations about city life. Kind of a cross of Joe Pera Talks with You and Koyaanisqatsi. . . EDIT - a sample, and yes that is [was?] Paul Atriedes.

![]() I know there aren't a lot of dads in here my age with 6 and unders, but if you are and haven't watched this show, you best do so before I come over and make you do it clockwork orange style. Darn it this show is exceptional. I laugh a ton, sometimes it gets a little misty in the room, but it gives you an appreciation for what an important job parenting is. Sometimes when you are staring at your phone while you aren't engaging with your kids, Bandit (the dad) will really show you up and make you feel terrible. Because as a parent, we could always be doing better. |

Also I’m probably really late to the party on Gomorrah on HBO. We’re about half way through season 1, and holy shit it is really good and intense. It’s like a more serious Sopranos, but takes place in Rome. Been hard to stop at the e d of each episode cuz I wanna see what’s going to happen next.

Gomorrah is one of the best european series of the last decades. Looking forward in December for the last season of the series.

So I picked up HBOMAX for a few months here, and finally got to watch White Lotus and Mare of Easttown.
White Lotus White Lotus is some really excellent filmmaking. It doesn't try to get out over it's skis and tell some grandiose story. Nope. It's a bit of a character study on like 8 people over a week in a resort. The acting is all really good. There is a bit of a stretch in is this how these people would really react - but nothing cheesy. And the beginning line of "Oh we heard someone died. Yeah, they're loading the body on our plane" was really ****ing excellent. The whole ****ing time I was trying to figure out who was going to eat shit, and they did a great job of leaving it open. Really had my ass hooked for no more than it was. I listened to some interesting analysis about White Collar vs Blue Collar consequences to what happened that was really interesting, but I totally missed it upon the first watch. Mare of Easttown Mare was ****ing amazing. I'm probably going to rewatch it before I dump the subscription. Top to bottom, really ****ing good. A little more aggressive in that it was a bigger story, but really, REALLY good. Anyone that hasn't watched it. Do it. |

I've been watching this and really enjoying it. It's Alive meets Lord of the Flies meets Mean Girls meets mid-90s references.
