Up to episode 5/8 of Sharp Objects. Every time someone asks for a investigative thriller/murder mystery recommendation of Reddit its always Sharp Objects leading the pack or atleast in the top 5. So really wanted to check it out. I already have 3-4 theories on what is happening and I will be surprised if I didnt get it right with one of the theories. Its incredibly slow. Far too many abrupt cuts. Great cast. Lets see how it goes.

Just finished watching Sharp Objects. I thought it was really good. Quite slow but very well made and well acted. Definitely worth a watch.

I remember watching that when it first aired. Thought it was great. Amazing performances from a mostly female cast. Best thing I've seen Amy Adams in.

Idk about your recollection or how long ago you watched it but yeah. Episode 3 was the Woman in space and the beginning of the program and training the new ascans. Man I just love so far how they capture the era so perfectly around this. Im stoked to keep going.

They play the alternative history angle perfectly, even more so in future seasons! Also, once you're finished with Season 1 and before you move on to Season 2, don't forget to check out the bonus content, it's incredible

Troppo

Set in rural Australia, when a Korean businessman goes missing it is up to disgraced former cop Thomas Jane and murder convict Nicole Chamoun to get to the bottom of the mystery.

The location is beautiful. The acting and plot is good for about 7 episodes till it all fizzles out in the end.

The finale is Dexter final season levels of bad. The lead lady turns into Tommy Wiseau in the final episode.

The ending is so badly written and acted that it completely ruins the first 7 episodes.

What a waste of time.

Patriot(Prime)

 

I heard about this show on a forum and decided to give it a try since I have nothing else to watch. It came out on Prime for 2 seasons in 2015. I am surprised that this show is not more popular. Its absolutely fantastic. My laptop is kept near the window and I fear that my neighbours will start thinking that I have gone crazy because I burst out laughing at random intervals.

John is a spy who has to start working at a piping firm in Luxembourg that does business with Iran to stop Iran from developing nuclear weapons. The humour is subtle but its brilliant. This is the best show I have watched since Nathan for you.

Give it a try and you wont regret it.

Finished season 3 of The Bear kinda sad cus it was really mediocre. Id say there was about 3 interesting and worthwhile episodes. This season was largely filler and fairly drawn out, to the point where if the first season was on this level I probably would have stopped watching and had no interest.

Reacher season 1 

8/10 

Very entertaining show. A bit hard to follow at times and I had to Google a few bits but very good.

 

For me, that was the best of the five. Having read all of Lee Child's and Jack Reacher's books, it is nice to see them being filmed.

You should watch the 2 Reacher films that Tom Cruise made of the characters Reacher One Shot & Never Go Back, Cruise acted OK but never a Reacher.

Cruise is around 5ft 4inc tall and the character Reacher is 6ft 5lnc tall and between 220-250 weight-wise so they changed the actor for the new films to Alan Ritchson who is 6ft 2inch tall and has done a lot of bodybuilding which makes a better Reacher.

Just bought the latest Lee Child/Jack Reacher book and am in the middle of reading it

Yellowstone is back! With a bang...

@Viva la FCB

Oh man you werent kidding. I loved it. 

 

How they've set this is up is fantastic. I had forgotten about the falling out with Costner but starting with that was perfect. Going back and getting to see some of the herd migration is what makes this show so good. The feature/tribute to Billy Klapper the guy making spurs was just uhh chef's kiss, Sheridan's touch for this kind of stuff is what sets him apart in the genre. Then taking it further with the talk about his not only his craft but Rip getting into it at the camp about cowboying in general is a dieing thing. Just beautifully done. And I havent even gotten into really where their taking the story, it all looks really promising for a wrap up. I saw they mentioned itl only be 5 episodes to finish this off but given where we're at I guess it makes sense.

Spoiler

I just hope to see Jamie dying a slow, agonizing death  

My ideal ending would be the Indian tribe getting their land back. I speculated about it quite a while ago in the Yellowstone topic, and I have a feeling that it could actually work... Would be great to see.

Have you watched Costner's epic western movie already? Really loved it...
