Yea it was but IIRC it was a victim of the Writers strike. And it looks like a similar if not even worse strike is in the making.
What are you binge watching?

Watching American Rust, kind of like Mare of Easton, but It’s in SW Pa. Also just finished this seasons Billions. Also watched The Many Saints of Newark. I thought Gandolfini Jr. did a great job mimicking some of his Dad’s idiosyncrasies.

just finished episode 6 of 9, I really like it, kind of like Battle Royale mixed with The Long Walk and a little black mirror mixed in
I have HBOMax but not the version without ads. Is there anyway to watch the Many Saints of Newark? Also I want to see the new Bond movie. Do I need to go to theaters to see it or is it streaming on anything? Thanks
Apologies if this recommendation is a retread (I'm a little behind in this thread). Only Murders in the Building is pretty fabulous.
The Comey thing on Netflix is pretty good. I think I saw it on Showtime but am watching it again.
Gangland on Netflix is very good. Its a Netflix original from France. Action packed, well produced, crime/drug cartel/robbery theme, good actors. Has subtitles.
I watched a season or 2 and liked it, where did you find it? Netflix? Amazon? tia
Squid Games was good. Got a little slow towards the end of the season. Then had a cliffhanger and unfinished plot line which would seem great if there was actually a season 2 in the works (which at this point there isn't)
I watched it but to be honest I thought it was exceedingly violent and depressing.
I started watching that but I don't know if I'll finish. It moves pretty slow.
You mean from S1? I was a bit skeptical too but give it a few episodes; best 'chess game' drama since Game of Thrones IMO (and a lot funnier). Might not be your thing though.
It’s quite good. I’ve watched the first three episodes. Well worth watching.
We are in Season 6.01 of the Vikings right now. I'm digging those hot Scandinavian chicks.
I certainly recommend it. Not quite Game of Thrones, but very good none the less.
Married a blonde Sicilian myself. If you want to see a great show, see Zen. I don't think I've ever recommended a 1 season, 3 shows series. Caterina Murino. You'll thank me later.I like those dark, Italian types. Especially with a tight, compact body. Hey, I married one and have zero regrets!
I thought it was good, not great. I thought it peaked about 5-6 episodes in where the game played is (minor spoilers: marbles). It slowed down a bit towards the end and the last episode wasn't great. Also the voice acting for a few of the characters that don't appear until the last few episodes (minor spoiler: American VIPs) was so horrible it was distracting from the show.
Episode 1 of season 3 of Succession was like being shot out of a cannon. Probably the best show on TV.
It took me 3 episodes into season 1 to get hooked. But once you're hooked, it's incredible.

Vikings is one if the best series of the last 20 years, we really enjoyed it.
The years have not been kind to her.I've been gong back and watching Burn Notice, without Ads its pretty good for something light while on a exercise machine. Plus Gaberielle Anwar is a good way to wake up
I like to watch something funny before bed so I've gone through 'Curb your enthusiasm' and have moved on to something a bit different: 'Taskmaster"
It's a British show with comedian Greg Davies (got a few specials on Netflix and shows up on Graham Norton show time to time) as the "Taskmaster" though the real driver of the show is Alex Horne who created the show. Each series (season) pits 5 comedians (though some are tv presenters) against each other in crazy tasks. Greg watches the chaos and assigns them points.
All the seasons are on YouTube. You can watch some best of cuts there to get a feel for the show. Some seasons are better than others but I find the show hilarious.

If you liked Squid Games (or were at least intrigued by it), there's a Japanese series on Netflix called Alice in Borderland that so far is a similar idea, but based in urban settings.
Out of the blue, I started watching Friday Night Lights again…hadn’t seen it since it was originally on NBC back in the day. I’ve rewatched about half of season 1 and…just…terrific storytelling. Don’t think I’m going to watch the whole series this time around, but I can’t not finish the first season now.
I never watched it the first time around. I just finished season one and started season two last night. The writing and cast are great.
I can't binge watch it because it is new and comes out once a week but Dopesick on Hulu has been good thus far. Based on a true story but amazing how drug companies can manipulate the system at the expense of the people.
As I recall, it gets a little sappy in the middle seasons (teen drama), but finishes almost as strongly as it started. Enjoy!
Bryan Cox says two more seasons of Succession likely, 'then that will be it.'
HBO Max's excellent surreal/cosmic horror superhero drama Doom Patrol renewed for S4.
