The subtle eye movements and gestures, it's just brilliant I watch the first 2 seasons in about 2 weeks and it's just soooooooo good IMHO, it's a crime he never won the emmy for lead actor in a comedy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantasy Island Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Sense 8 on Netflix was a heck of a good show, very good acting and writing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not knocking it, simply thought there was no way Gervais could top himself. Though lots of people do like it. There is a much darker element to David Brent than Michael/Carrell.

The smarminess of David Brent can never be topped. I like the American version of The Office. But the never ending idiocy/darkness of the British original is just phenomenal. If you can stand the constant cringing, that is. Go to about 2:45 when David claims he's just as good a dancer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She hasnt aged well but wow, what a ******* intense dark show. Watched it when it aired on USA. Just the first episode was intense AF. Never saw the previews so wasn't expecting that part at the beach. Rest of the series is just as good and intense. Anyone watching Sharp Objects that started on HBO?? It sort of has that Sinner vibe but 2 episodes in and I don't know how I feel about it. I'm curious what's going on but it's a bit slow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The show premiered my senior year of high school, and it carried me all the way through college and my first job post college. One of my favorite shows. I'm convinced that Steve Carrel worked for my boss at one of my internships, and modeled Michael Scott directly after him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have it DVR'd but haven't started it and avoided reading anything about it with the unrealistic idea I would find the time to watch it. Thinking about doing a Succession binge. Worth the time? Yay or nay? What say thee? I need to clear some space for football season. I try to tape whoever the next 2 or 3 Jets opponents will be. Even if I trash it can always get it on demand from HBO anyway, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 I've officially given up on Westworld. It's too much. I have no clue WTF is going on and the second I think I do, it all flips upside down again. The first season it was intriguing, this season it's just too much and frustrating and work track/conversation in this season is just mind numbing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Perfect Saul premier. That scene where Mike was in the office break room might be my favorite Mike scene ever. I was dying when he signed the card. Mike deciding to take the fake job seriously is brilliant. It's that type of writing that separates this entire universe apart from everything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RutgersJetFan Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Also Gilligan recently said he'd be interested in exploring another spinoff series when Saul concludes. What would make sense? A post-BB Jesse Pinkman series or a prequel Salamanca series? Mike back in his Philly days? Who knows. All I know is I'm hoping that when Saul concludes after season 5, they sit back and come up with something else. Gilligan and this world are too good to say goodbye to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What an incredible acting job by Jonathan Banks as Mike (this guy has acting chops out the wazoo). Might be one of the best episodes of television I've ever seen. Beautifully written and executed.
