303abuser The old one was brilliant (Cocaine Cowboys), the new one on Netflix is made by the same guy

      LT42 i think there have been a few series with the same name, i can’t keep them all straight.

          303abuser Jon Roberts (Mickey Munday’s partner) told some great stories in the old one. He since died.

            Just rewatched season 2 of I Think You Should Leave. Loved it. Just a good as season 1. Hilarious

            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

            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.

              Stopped my Netflix subscription. Was spending so much time trying to find stuff then being very underwhelmed by the content.

              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.

                Done three last night. some bits are funny but it’s not that good.

                  Zackster wears Veja’s and Birkenstocks.

                  That’s all I’m saying.

                  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.

                      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.

                        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.

                            Yeah, fair. Guess I’m just trying to hedge as to why some might not like the show. I personally enjoyed it.
