    I’ll trust your review, I can’t remember much about one either. Pretty sure my quarantine viewing could be skewing my ratings

      Am I the only one that's been underwhelmed by WW Season 3 so far?

          I'm hoping it is suckering us in. So far it's completely disposable, just another intrigue Lost-like ambiguity show. It's like the intelligence dropped to zero as soon as they got into our world.

          I trust Nolan. Even if the usual as-sholes put pressure on to do an accessible final season, I trust him to be able to sneak something special out under their noses.

            S2 was a solid 9. It just wasn't the 73 that S1 was.

            WW seems to be following the Mr. Robot and Legion trajectory. Incredibly interesting and subtle S1 gets popular so the dopes start moving in. Writers hold out for a while, but there are delays and things begin to slip. The actors become names and probably start to think the piano is composing the music, so things become cliche and at their level.

            But in each case we will always have S1.

              I hope you're right. I like you enjoyed S2 but I didn't even finish the last episode of S3. I'll give it another try and remain patient.

                S3 episode 1 I almost turned off. Wayyyyy too far out there for me and adding all those new characters.

                I liked the 2nd episode. Much more my style and back to what I was accustom to with the show.

                Haven’t seen 3rd episode yet.

                  CC to Handy: USA is doing a "binge-a-thon" of Psych. Starting Wednesday after NXT will be seasons 1 and 2, then I assume next week will be 3 and 4, etc.

                  Why do I need to do things like "work" and "sleep?"

                  And no need to assume. It will be set up that way.

                        Handy or Scooby, or whoever it was has me re-watching Homeland.

                        Pardon me while I channel Roy Moore, but Brodie's daughter is cute.

                            I doubt it was me. Yeah, she'll be a looker someday.

                            I finished season 2 last night. The show that is the most like it that I have watched is How To Get Away With Murder. Those are both two shows that I have an extreme difficulty liking any of the characters. For Homeland about the only person I have an affinity is Saul (mandy patinkin).

                              Finished Tiger King. That's not the end of the story. I am certain this will just keep on.

                              And my god I still don't know what to think about at least the following questions: (spoilers below)

                              Q. Did Carole kill Don?

                              A. My guess is Don is alive somewhere warm with lots of money and problems of his own. When he blew town Carole took care of herself.

                              Q. Is the attempted murder charge on Joe unsound?

                              A. My guess is Joe never paid Allen to kill Carole. He talked about it all the time and Jeff wound him up but it's a frame. Not that there isn't enough to hold Joe on. Further I think the Feds know it's a frame and are using it as leverage to entice Joe to blow up the whole industry.

                              Q. Where did Don's money come from?

                              A. Drugs. Come on.

                              Q. Where did Bhagavan's money come from?

                              A. (scratches head) I guess he's a cult leader who sucked his followers dry. Or drugs. God it could be anything.

                              Q. And Jeff's?

                              A. He doesn't have any.

                              Q. Did Rick burn his own stuff?

                              A. Yes.

                                Mookie knocked off amazon’s Jack Ryan season 2 yesterday. A little light, but Mookie will watch season 3.

                                Mookie also started the English game of netflix. Interesting so far a couple episodes in.
