Other than that, I'm basically watching reruns of Bob's Burgers and lots of pro wrestling.

Currently going through....
"The Boys" It's a blast so far. Was a bot tired of all those somewhat mediocre superhero shows that has been pouring out lately, this is a gem though. "Parks and Recreation" not for the first time, love it. "Dark" German sci-fi/thriller. Man it's good, you should give it a chance. I'm on Season 1 but I've heard Season 2 is one of the best material available on TV today. Just finished... "Happy, Season 1" it made me happy, in a strange way. "Stranger Things, Season 3" Because, of course. "Star Trek, Discovery season 2" ....and I love it! "Good Omens" my favorite book adapted to TV. Honestly Tennant and Michael Sheen are my new favorite on screen duo. Looking forward to.... Jack Ryan, season 2 The Witcher Carnival Row |

@Cedric: I'm a STNG fan and I've heard that Discovery doesn't have the science and philosophy of the old Star Trek. I'm afraid of putting time and energy into it. Is it that different from the old school stuff?
@Cedric2: Dark Season 2 had me wondering at first, but at about mid-season it was everything as good (or better?) than Season 1. Last edited by PIG; Aug 9th, 2019 at 12:37 AM. |

@PIG but I like the Discovery series. The people who don't like it are always the loudest, in my opinion it's just as much in the spirit of Star Trek as the other series. Each is different of course and this one is a maybe more action packed than the others, but I don't feel the science and philosophy part suffers for it.
My favorite series is DS9 and I'm glad each series has it's own flavor, maybe the technology today allows the show to do more fancy stuff, that might bother some. |

Handmaid's Tale
Well, I was watching the Handmaid's Tale. The season finalé dropped last night, and is fantastic!
I also just finished a British mystery, Loch Ness. That one really rocked, especially the ending. Only six episodes, though. Now I have to go find something else worth watching. |

I just stumbled onto a couple of made-for-TV "Gene Wilder Mystery" movies from way back in the day. Very much in the "Murder She Wrote" vein and goofy way to spend a few hours.

I saw that there was more than one season of The Handmaid's Tale. I really enjoyed the book, and I thought that the first season was a really great adaptation of it... But I have to wonder why they made more than one season (aside from the natural tendency of US TV to milk a cow for all it's worth). It's not really drawing anything from the Book at this point, I would imagine. Is it really worth watching the following seasons?

Just got done watching the final season of Game of Thrones. A little annoyed that the movie Hobbs and Shaw spoiled the ending a little bit for me.
I am planning on watching all the episodes of Marvel's Agents of Shield that I DVRed so far.

I've never been much of a Star Trek fan, but I saw a trailer for a new ST series about Old Picard. To me it seemed much in the same vain as the Old Maverick Top Gun movie coming out (which is to say pretty silly), but I figured I'd mention it here if there are any ST fans who'd be interested.

The Twilight Zone
I watch this with some regularity. Most recent episode was about a man who works in an office. He was sick of the people around him, and read a book which claimed his could change his environment by willing it. The next day he came to work and nobody was there, among other queer occurences, etc. Strange Angel This is about the duality of the real life 3D man named Jack Parsons, founder of Jet Propulsion Laboratory. He likes rockets and the occult. It is a fun biography dramatisation series set in the 1930's, available on CBS All Access. Last year was the first season, and they ran a second season this year. Next up: the new Rocko's Modern Life one-shot |

I've been trying out Symphogear lately. The second series was pretty horrible storytelling until its amazing end and now the third series is a major relief for me.
