I’m assuming you’re talking about YouTube tv.

Extracurricular was “so bad it’s good” for me. Lots of belly laughs and yelling at the tv

I was Googling for how much money Tony Soprano made, and I came across this article ranking the richest Sopranos characters.

https://screenrant.com/the-sopranos-richest-characters/

According to their estimates, Johnny Sack is the only character richer than Tony. Not sure I would agree. I assume they didn’t consider Carmine, but even so it seems like Hesh could be pretty wealthy given all the money he made in the music business back in the day along with his other interests.

But the main thing that annoyed me is that they describe Johnny’s house as “a gorgeous modern mansion that makes Tony’s house look like Uncle June’s.” I’d rather live in Tony’s house. Johnny’s place just seems like a generic McMansion, while Tony’s house has more character, better landscaping and seems to be in a better neighborhood.

The Squid Game delivers. So good. 9/10

I mean, it’s been awhile since I have seen the show, but I’m pretty sure the point was that both of their homes were dumb and awful. Not suble?

Final 30 minutes were weakest of show for sure but the show is structured such that the ending doesn’t really matter. For me it basically ended in the squid game.

Buried is good. Watched it randomly one day, not knowing what it was. Pretty effective, gets emotional, panicky.

Geralds game

Nice, love carla g. but 6.5 imdb is a little rough? I have a backlog now that I just saw squid game e1 yeah cool shit.

6.5 is very rough. Its a very well done Mike Flannagan movie with one of the most gruseome effects Ive ever seen on film, and Carla G is an absolute powerhouse in it. Its much closer to a 7.5-8 than a 6.5

Reservation Dogs still going good.

Started watching Y: The Last Man, not high art so far but entertaining. Yorick is personable, Agent 355 is badass. It’s going good, could get better and be bumped up to recommend or could get worse.

Funny the background characters I recognize. The President’s assistant is Angry Nanny from Working Moms Good to see Olivia Thirlby doing work. She did great in Dredd and then dropped off the map for me.

Doom Patrol, season 3, episode 4…that was fucking nuts. Don’t forget the mid-credits scene.

It’s still good, apparently.

A weird take, honestly. It’s not like the premise was all that original in the first place.

Disagree. Think this series is a little subtle for US audiences. Would love to see a version a little more on the nose.
