      The big flower flight just hit Netflix. If it’s anything like British baking show it’ll be great

          Putting this here instead of the Basketball thread.

          Just finished The Last Dance today. Thought it was really good. I like documentaries like that. I did find it kind of interesting there was no mention of his (ex?) wife and there was no mention of his kids till the last episode. He was kind of a jerk. Couldn’t take it if someone joked at him, etc.

            ABC is re-airing this, IIRC on Sat nights. Looking forward to watching it.
            Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

              It started so if you didn’t see it Saturday you missed the first episode.

                Dang. Oh well. I'll watch the rest of it. I mean, we all know the basic story.

                    The Americans, Breaking Bad, Cheers, Brotherhood.

                    Sons Of Anarchy was beyond predictable, but they told it well, if that makes sense.

                    Edit: Mad Men was pretty good.

                      Good, but could have been better: Game of Thrones, Sons of Anarchy.

                        Justified is a good call. Forgot about that one, and I shall go to the box for two minutes and feel shame, as I own the series. To be fair (to be faiiiiiiiiiirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr) my parents have had that on loan for a couple years, working through it, so I forgot about it.

                          The Americans, The Wire, The Sopranos, Justified.

                          I started rewatching HIMYM from S1 (I missed S1 and 2 when it intitially aired) and if memory serves for me the biggest disappointment was the utter lack of emotinal appeal to the meeting of the mother. Hoping I'm misremebering that or I get a different reaction this time around.

                            No, the problem with HIMYM is that they actually made us care about the mother after introducing her at the end of the penultimate season, then the series finale turned it back to Robin despite spending 7 years telling us how they won't work.

                              Maybe Robin works after they have all that life experience (he married and had kids with someone else first) behind them? It's been known to happen.

                                There's that too. My issue was they built up the mother all those years but because it was purely anecdotal I just didn't care who she ended up being after speding those 9 years watching the main cast. The reveal was anti-climatic.
