I just finished The Last Kingdom...again.

My rule of thumb is to re-watch the series if there is a huge gap....so I need to knock out S1 and S2 of Jack Ryan so I can do S3.

Season 2 Vikings Valhalla...because blood guts etc.

Although I'm not certain of the historical accuracy of "man buns" as a Viking hairstyle...

Watched the first episode of S2. Too much talking and the dialogue is weak. I may not stick with it.

Some trailers for new stuff....Pedro Pascal has been busy.

Mandalorian Season 3 (March 1st)

Series from the game "The Last of Us" (out now HBO)

 

[Ooh-Rah]

Just finished Tulsa King.

That fucking CUNT! (Could be any of a number of them so no spoilers!)

Paramount+ should just rename itself to The Taylor Sheridan Network.

Wife and I have been watching Mayor of Kingstown. It's entertaining. To bad there may never be a season 3, with Jeremy Renner's current condition.

I enjoyed it up until about season 1, episode 7. Then the wheels fell off. In typical Taylor Sheridan fashion, he took a pretty fanciful, but still entertaining, storyline and turned it to the utterly absurd -- to the point of almost being unwatchable.

Sheridan's storylines are a mystery to me. I don't know how he manages to be so close, yet so far at the same time. It feels like someone with vision and talent started writing his shows, then somewhere along the way, they quit or got fired and they brought in the lowest bidder to do a quick wrap up.

I’ve enjoyed The Last of Us this far.

Started watching True Detective on HBO. REALLY like it. Some of my favorite actors, very interesting plot lines.

I'll have to pick it up from Season 2, which I never finished after having been thoroughly spoiled by Season 1.

Glad you're enjoying it. Let me know if S2 delivers, if you're not already through it; I may pick it up again when I have time.

S1 was hands down the best, 2 was okay, and 3 is better than 2.

 

[Marauder06]

I'm into 2 now. Bonus in S1 was that one of my favorite actresses was a love interest of one of the main characters.

Daddario!

Daddario!

Indeed.

I wouldn't leave my wife for her.

Now, other stuff's on the table and Mrs. Profiteer and I could sort out those issues later... That's a "tomorrow problem."

 

[Jaknight]

cabinet of curiosities is a pretty good show I recommend episode 3 in particular The Autopsy

 

[Marauder06]

I also watched "We Own the City." I especially liked how many actors were also in another favorite series of mine, "The Wire." Especially the ones who were in very different roles between the two shows. My only regret was that there was no "Omar" in WOTC.

Me, watching "We Own the City" and seeing actors from "The Wire:"

I finished the latest installment of Fauda. No spoilers, the last episode, damn. I hope there is a fifth season.

 

[Devildoc]

Chris Pratt announced he, Jack Carr, and Amazon prime are developing two Carr books into series.

 

[Devildoc]

Hit & Run, series on Netflix, the actor who plays the main character is also the actor who plays the main character on Fauda, same production company, too.

I've only seen the first episode, but I'm in. It is a crime/drama/thriller with undertones of spook.
