Accidentally posted this in the wrong thread. My wife thinks it’s a funeral scene because she saw a lot of people in black suits.

Seems like Netflix is like 90% mid-quality documentary series at this point. Fortunately, I generally enjoy that genre. Watched the Madoff one, was pretty good. I knew that somebody had tried to tip off the SEC, but I wasn’t aware the guy was sending them letters with titles like “BERNIE MADOFF IS RUNNING A PONZI SCHEME YOU IDIOTS” with bullet points of all the very clear evidence he had.

Just started Yellow Jackets. Pretty good so far. Christian Ricci is seriously in contention for GOAT actress imo.

I tried watching the Netflix show “Treason” and my god it’s awful. I think it’s 5 (!) episodes but I tapped out halfway.
Yah, I think I posted it in the Movies thread by accident, but if a good series comes out on Netflix, it’s far more likely it’s Korean than English. They’ve had some solid Korean content, but very little in English. Doesn’t seem like much in Spanish/French/Portuguese either and for a while there was a decent flow of series in those too.

When they left River tied up with the phone nearby I was like “oh come on, they’d never do that”. They got me!
Took this advice and went with BSG.
Prettay, Prettay good. Still early in S1. Lots of questions, but hopefully the answers will come.

Early in s1 means you have nothing but a long era of WTF!!! cliffhangers and mysteries for the foreseeable future. Some peaks and valleys of course by the end but what a show.

S1 is great. 33, Hand of God and the finale stick out. I went back and rewatched over covid and I still love it.

I started watching Three Pines, a mystery show set in Quebec starring Alfred Molina as the lead detective. So far it seems like middling genre fare, but it’s really poorly lit. Has anyone else noticed this?
I also rewatched BSG recently, the mini-series and the first two seasons are really great. Hope you watched the mini-series first Melkerson, when I first watched the show in 2009 I initially missed it and jumped straight to season 1. The mini-series is terrific.

Are you Mormon now?
I’m two episodes in. The lighting style has to be intentional. I think the point is to make the white people blend into the white background so the native peoples stand out. At least that’s my thought, but I’m no film expert.
Typical WOKE MOB nonsense.
I don’t know what that means, so maybe?
The show loosely follows Mormon religious doctrine.
Mormons have made a lot of great contributions to sci-fi, you don’t have to be LDS to appreciate it.

I actually almost did that. Started on s1e1 and it began with a “Previously on…”. That should have been enough. But we got about 5min into the episode before we decided that we might want to investigate what the that was referring to.
