zackster It’s not Netflix, but White Lotus on HBO was absolutely phenomenal. Best cometary on the service industry I’ve ever seen. 9/10.
jonattonyeah zackster Yeah it was excellent. Steve Zahn makes everything better. I could say more but would risk spoiling it for others who might be interested. Excellent use of music as well.
seanc80 zackster Zackster i watched the first episode of this last night on your recomendation. Never again. 9/10? Catch a fucking grip.
LT42 303abuser The old one was brilliant (Cocaine Cowboys), the new one on Netflix is made by the same guy
303abuser LT42 i think there have been a few series with the same name, i can’t keep them all straight.
LT42 303abuser Jon Roberts (Mickey Munday’s partner) told some great stories in the old one. He since died.
zackster Just rewatched season 2 of I Think You Should Leave. Loved it. Just a good as season 1. Hilarious
Hank_Solo I’m watching Brand New Cherry Flavor and so far it’s excellent. Weird voodoo, dark horror with more than a nod to David Lynch. Love it
jonattonyeah HBO has signed on Mike White for a second season of The White Lotus. That’s…odd. It was a unique show made in a unique time (filmed in a self-contained “bubble” during Covid). I don’t really see how it could be continued on in any meaningful way.
zackster jonattonyeah its set at a different White Lotus location and features an all new cast. But agreed, it is a dumb idea. Should have let it be a stand alone thing.
IndustryStandard Stopped my Netflix subscription. Was spending so much time trying to find stuff then being very underwhelmed by the content.
jonattonyeah seanc80 I figured it would be very Marmite for many. Some of the nuances around privilege and how people communicate could be uniquely American. One of the reasons I didn’t bring up the show previously.
seanc80 jonattonyeah The rest of the world has a fair idea of Americans and their manerisms mate. They arent exactly the uncontacted tribes of the Peruvian Amazon.
seanc80 There were 2 funny bits in the first episode. And that gets a 9 out of 10. Grotesque misuse of the rating system imo. In actual fact Zack should be banned from usuing this sytem for tv/films ever again.
