To continue their inexplicable decision making, Netflix has renewed the Watcher for a second season.

absolutely not needed and a dumb idea

losing Henry cavil as the Witcher is a blow, too. He’s made it known that the show runners seem to hate the source material while Henry respects it
 
Watching E3 of Tales From the Territories on VICE. The series delves into the history of the regional wrestling associations that existed before the WWE took control. E3 is about the AWA.

That would be fun although I suspect they were each run by a different organized crime syndicate.
 
Okay, Andor is now my favorite Star Wars show by far. The Mandalorian is great and fun but Andor is making real statements like Rogue One before it.

Writer Tony Gilroy is building on the original trilogy in a very meaningful way.

George Lucas is/was a rebel along the lines of Stanley Kubrick and George’s pal Francis Coppola. Star Wars is about the AMERICAN empire make no mistake. This is what makes the originals so incredible. inverse.com/culture/star-w… and now we have Rogue One and Andor to carry the tradition!

read what Lucas says here. It’s astounding. He’s more of a rebel than Martin Sheenand he got away with it!

I stopped watching after S1, I hafta pick it back up. I was falling in irredeemable lust with every other actress. Dr. Mrs. is Scotch Irish; I have a type.
 
My wife and I just finished watching the series 1899 on Netflix. It's an eight part, single season series, although I could see the possibility of a follow up season. Most of the episodes were less than an hour long, so it wasn't a terrible ordeal to binge through it.

It started out very promising, I thought. The year is 1899 and 1500 people or so are on a large ocean liner traveling from an unnamed European port to the US. Somewhere in the North Atlantic the ship receives a message (just coordinates on a map) that they deduce has been sent by a sister ship that has been missing at sea for four months. The captain makes the decision to veer off course and head to the coordinates, where they find the missing ship in a very peculiar and creepy condition.

At that point they have my attention. Then, the show tumbles down a rabbit hole that I'm not sure I could explain here, even if I wanted to post spoilers.

I wouldn't say the show is great, but I wouldn't say it is terrible either. My wife and I just looked at each other after the finish, and were like, "uh, ok?" I would say that the primary problem with the show is that it tended to drag at times in the middle episodes.

I'm curious if anyone else has watched it, and their reaction.

I did. I liked it, but not as much as their other show, Dark. Dark, for me, is going to be one of my all time favorite shows

tbese creators can pull off these themes better than most others, but it just didn’t enthrall me the way that Dark did. And the themes in both are very, very similar
 
S1 of The Terror for episodes 1-8 or possibly somewhere into 9 was brilliant but E10 at the very least was one of the worst endings to such brilliance that I recall.
