I'm a fan of Kevin Costner, hence like yellowstone. How is 1883 in terms of story line, dialogues etc?

IMO, a much better show. Even though it's only 1 season, great character development, pace, story. You care what's happening. Feels authentic. I like yellowstone just fine, and I understand it's a drama, but it seems very unrealistic to me. 1883 feels genuine. I do enjoy westerns and authetic period pieces. Faith Hill and Tim McGraw surprised me, very impressive.

I liked 1883, and maybe I'm just a bit naive but it seemed that folks couldn't move a mile without getting killed. Other than that it was a pretty decent series, I'm looking forward to 1923.

I'm offering a 2nd opinion re Tulsa King, I'm 4 episodes in, looks good to me. I personally don't have a prb w Sly's acting, even though he's been in some bad movies. The guy's got a half-paralyzed face, give him a break; he's doing fine.

I'm finishing up Better Call Saul, Yellowstone and just starting Wednesday. I can't wait to see what Taylor Sheridan came up with for Harrison Ford and Helen Mirren in 1923.

Saul was great. Sad it’s over.

RickFLM4 · 12-08-2022, 05:40 PM

Watched Sebastian Maniscalco’s latest Netflix special. Funny as always, but not as animated or funny as some of his past shows.

The episode with the Lesbians was HILARIOUS, same with the reparations.

bosstones · 12-08-2022, 09:53 PM

Watched Wednesday. Not bad for what it was and left open to a 2nd season.

Need to wait for Yellowstone (S5) to be out on Peacock so...... rewatching The Pacific.

tranquility · 12-10-2022, 02:02 AM

Anyone watching 1899? I'm 5 episodes in and lost, are they trying to out David Lynch David Lynch? Man…

eluded · 12-10-2022, 03:45 AM

Watching Wednesday on a Friday.

Murf the Surf · 12-11-2022, 02:40 PM

This might be good.

TXSTYLE · 12-11-2022, 07:59 PM

HBO does it again! With must-see TV and vnot one but two former and and amazing actors from the legendary Game of Thrones franchise. ...

If you have never heard of, nor played the highly rated video game, you're missing out.

Finished Season 2 of the White Lotus tonight. I highly recommend if you haven't seen this show, check it out. Its a hilarious satire of rich white people, and has some of the best dialogue in any comedy out there. Plus the cast is excellent every season, especially Jennifer Coolidge.

Bit of a slow starter , but from episode 2 the series develops.

NealfromNZ · 12-11-2022, 10:43 PM

And older series , but one of the best I've watched if you can find it.

Season 2 was so different than Season 1. I enjoyed Season 1 way more because I thought Season 2 turned into a Soap Opera.

But yeah, awesome show all around. 10/10. Can't wait for Season 3 but hope it reverts back to some of the comedy of Season 1

I actually enjoyed season 2 more, and found it to be a bit funnier, although both seasons are excellent. I really liked the storylines and characters this season a lot, Daphne in particular was very interesting, especially towards the later half of the season, and Lucia and Mia were fun and hectic. After tonight I definitely see Jennifer Coolidge getting another emmy, although Megan Fahey and Aubrey Plaza also deserve one as well.

Biggest question for season 3 is where will it be, and who will return? I would love to see a season set at a ski resort, I feel like that setting would lend itself to some fun antics.

Yeah, Daphne (Fahey) was amazing. She was my favorite character. I think I may re-watch Season 2 in a week or so. I was listening to a podcast today and I missed so many small things...like when Daphne & Ethan were walking to the deserted island with the house. It didn't even cross my mind they potentially could be hooking up.

Mike White is really a genius with the writing. I agree a Ski Resort or snow location would a great change-of-pace for Season 3

RickFLM4 · 12-14-2022, 08:18 PM

Started watching Don’t Pick Up the Phone on Netflix. Pretty strange case.

I finished it few days ago. I like the series. The Italian actress is soooo hot (Lucia). I liked season 1 better though.

Started season 2 of Single’s Inferno (Korean version of Love Island of sort).

I finished Pepsi, Where's My Jet? It was a fun documentary with great nostalgic value.
