    Tiger King is basically what if Dump didn't have a credit line?

          I'm liking Picard, but it's not Star Trek. It's Firefly with Star Trek characters.

          Just like Quantum of Solace was a Bourne movie with James Bond.

            I disagree. Joss Whedon could never write anything as good as Picard. I think it fits in quite well with other Star Trek the finale especially.

              I could see why someone would think that. Part of me wanted to say that as well. But then I look at First Contact and compare, it’s substantially the same in terms of overall crafting. Just a different story, better acting, and much better cinematography. It’s everything Trek should be. Or better yet, it’s an evolution.

              I like that it’s a serial now. Makes it so much better than typical episodic storytelling.

                “Please my friends, choose to live” is a great way to end an episode.

                  Finally got around to the France season of Chef's Table. Absolutely exquisite.

                    I am finishing Season 2 of Ozark...meh. The first season is way better. Hopefully season 3 is as good as the hype.

                    Meh might actually be a bit harsh...it isnt bad it just isnt that good either. The pacing is all off. The story is kinda of muddled and it has both too much and too little going on depending on the episode. The shock value of certain scenes are good, but after about episode 4 I basically said "yeah this is just ridiculous none of this would ever work". Then they try and make characters seem like they are deeper than they are by having them have weird fetishes and problems that just arent needed. (I am looking at you creepy gay FBI guy) Honestly the season seems almost like filler half the time.

                        Was it better than 2?

                          Yes, but keep in mind I can’t remember much of 2.
                          Some plot lines lagged in 3. Wish I could remember more about 2.

                            2 is basically...all the people involved are stupid and egotistical and the Cartel is angry with them. (their lawyer is in like every other scene it seems)

                            If this was actually happening, the Cartel would have killed everyone involved 2 episodes into season 2

                              3 is better, in my opinion. I'm not sure it's as good as 1, but it's better than 2.
                              That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
