i@ve finished watching the first two episodes of The Americas hosted by Tom Hanks. It's excellent. It's also in 4K/Dolby Vision.

I've tried watching episodes of Elsbeth and The Tracker. Both have left me largely unimpressed. Elsbeth is like Columbo if Peter Faulk had been surrounded by terrible stories and acting. The Tracker just gives me zero opportunities to suspend my disbelief. He's smarter than everybody, recovers from gross bodily injury from episode to episode, and doesn't make nearly enough money reward hunting to pay for his support system. I'll be moving on from both.

We're currently watching Zero Day and enjoying it. It keeps you puzzling what is happening. On my own I'm watching the documentary about Ruby Franke and her fall from grace. Which is just all kinds of messed up.

The list I just posted is not perfect. But it does fix some of the missing/incorrect order in your list. I know it's missing some things such as some of the Deadpool /X-Men movies and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

I'm Married But, a Netflix drama starring the awesome Ko Chia Yen and Liu Yi Hao. I've been waiting for this one for more than a year since she first posted about it, and so far, it';s delivering on the promise

Watched the first two episodes of "Douglas Is Cancelled" on BritBox. There's some great actors, but the constant barrage of words is rather off-putting. Not sure if I'll continue or not.

Watched the rest, since there were only two more episodes. It didn't get any better unfortunately. Karen Gillan had some good stuff, but they could have easily covered this in the length of a film. Way too many words, and way too much repetition.

I watched Electric State last night. I haven't really watched a movie in some time. Now I remember why. This was really bad. Trying to sell a 21 year-old Millie Bobbie Brown as a precocious teen stuck in a bad foster home situation was a terrible mistake. She looked old enough to be her brother's mom (don't get me wrong--she looked good, she just didn't look young). Chris Pratt was misused, and the story was terribly blah. I chuckled at only one of the many attempted jokes.

I'm currently enjoying the classic 80s series Taxi. It's amazing the amount of cameos and guest stars I never recognized when watching it when it originally aired.

DiapDealer · 03-22-2025, 10:28 AM

I watched "The Residence". A new limited series on Netflix, and loved it. A quirky farcical whodunnit set in the Whitehouse with a huge cast of characters.

We finished the first season of Yellowjackets a couple of days ago. We had planned to watch Adolescence on Netflix but were too tired the last couple of nights to concentrate much, so we watched Barnwood Builders. We'll probably start Adolescence tomorrow. After that the second season of Yellowjackets.

I think Adolescence has some important messaging (and decent acting), but I wasn't all that impressed with the production itself.

I watched Adolescence too - and largely agree with you - it seemed like a scripted series trying hard to come across as a documentary.

Just watched the entire Fifth (and Final) Season of Star Trek: Lower Decks. There were lots of surprises (including at least one that no one saw coming), and it provided a good conclusion to the series.

Karellen · 03-28-2025, 09:58 PM

Just finished watching the show Renegade with Lorenzo Lamas.
For the most part it was fun.
