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.
seanc80 zackster Zackster i watched the first episode of this last night on your recomendation. Never again. 9/10? Catch a fucking grip.
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.
jonattonyeah seanc80 Yeah, fair. Guess I’m just trying to hedge as to why some might not like the show. I personally enjoyed it.
zackster So we agree that it was a bit nuanced for Sean yeah? Shame on me for bringing HBO into a Netflix thread. Sean have you seen Ted Lasso?
seanc80 zackster No ‘we’ dont agree Zack. What ‘we’ do agree on is that recomondations from you on comedy should be resoundingly rejected.
