An Australian documentary airing on 30 for 30 - about a really grim instance of racial vilification in Australia. Highly recommend if anyone wants a somewhat unuanced view on fairly widespread racism in Australia.
So itās like a family version of Wipeout.
Is that about Futurama?
Hannibal is now on Netflix. Mads is my hands down #1 portrayal of Dr. Lecter. That show is nutty AF and I canāt believe it was on NETWORK TV. The cooking scenes are pornographic and the leads are great. Kinda reminiscent of X-Files where it alternates between procedural case-o-the-week episodes and the (better) overarching storyline episodes. Speaking of, the guest stars are pretty impressive as well (including Scully and Eddie Izzard).
I always wished they had gotten more than 3 seasons when it aired. I could watch Mads do this forever.

Iād forgotten all about that show. I loved the first 2 seasons but I never watched the third and I canāt remember why. Does the third season hold up?
Its a bit truncated because they had plans to do more so kind of rushed a finale path but its still great.

Watched ep1 of Dark last night. B-movie quality in some ways, but I can usually let that slide for sci-fi and fantasy stuff. Definitely entertaining. Will be watching more.

I think I stopped watching in season 2 or 3 because it just got too crazy/messy Like they tried super hard to be artsy but I thought it was bad, Iāll probably give it another shot though. Completely agree Mads absolutely crushes as Dr, Lecter.

Excellent - Iāll add it to my list. I hate watching things when I donāt think they are going to spot the landing. First two series were astonishing television
The third season shifts into what seems like a very, very different approach, but then quickly becomes the Hannibal show we remember.
Itās just that seasons 1+2 are essentially one storyline with an insane resolution. Season 3 starts kind of a new storyline. I found myself struggling to continue there too, but I watched it finally a few months ago and DAMN. Six seasons and movie pleeeeeeeeeeease.
Anyone who hasnāt seen it should definitely try season 1. Wow is that an amazing show.

Yea I just finished season 2 on this rewatch. Season 3 is still good IIRC, but the finale of 2 is probably the peak of the show.
There was talk for a while about Netflix or Amazon continuing the series.

I remember that. I wish it had happened.
Instead we are getting Clarice. Not a continuation of Hannibal despite the foreshadowing of S3. The creators description sounds like it will be a sequel to Silence/Hannibal (the movie) that begins with Clarice revisiting what happened in her life before those stories.

Brooklyn Nine-Nine has scrapped all the episodes already written for next season. It sounds like they are talking about going in a new direction that addresses current events. If any show can do that and still be funny, itās B99.

is the first season good?
First season was great. One or two just okay episodes, but all of it worth watching.
duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuude, S2E1 was great
I LOVED IT. Every twist and turn was delightful.
In the first few minutes, I would have been down for the episode to only be about stupid dating dynamics with neckbeards. But the Twilight Zone isnāt going to stop thereā¦
Are you going back for season 1? I will be blazing through season 2 since they dropped all of the episodes at once this time, then season 1 is back on the menu.
Yea iāll get the trial i guess and watch em. I love black mirror, which i get isnāt the same, but its pretty close.
