Binged Sneaky Pete (Amazon) last weekend.

Fixed.

Taboo is the only new show.

Been wanting to check out Sneaky Pete, but not had time. Have Taboo on DVR, but haven't watched it yet. Not that much is really getting my attention. Looking forward to Iron Fist, but not much else right now.

Not a new show, but I watched the pilot for Outnumbered on Hulu yesterday. Wife and I are big fans of British comedy, and we have three kids, so this seemed like a no-brainer that should pretty much absorb our TV watching time for the next month or two.

Thoughts? I am two eps in, can't decide whether or not to continue.

My wife and I are in the same boat. Intrigued, but frustrated with difficulties in understanding what people are saying much of the time, and really have no idea where this show is intending on going.

So far that recipe has us keeping on tuning in, hoping we can figure out the ultimate long term plot.

You should check out Catastrophe on Amazon.

Since the Oscar nominations are out, all of the DVD screeners have been leaked to the internet again so we have been checking out this years class.

Really enjoyed season 4 of Sherlock. Other than calling 4 episodes a season.

What's a "DVD Screener"? Is it different than the actual movie that the public sees?

The Academy distributes DVDs to its members so that they can view the nominated flicks in the comfort of their homes before voting. Somehow these are uploaded every year at places like the Pirate Bay or Demonoid etc. These are the same movie that the public sees just some studios might flash a message at the beginning stating it is a screener and not to be sold/distributed.

So I'm guessing that since most of the nominee class has already been released in some form, the draw here is simply for "economical" reasons?

Hell yeah plus my home theater delivers a better experience than most theaters not to mention the beer selection

I'm two in. My Tom Hardy mancrush will keep me going.

It's good, I think. Worth keeping on. Something has to be coming. The payment scene was fun.

Remember, True Detective 1 was rough through 3 episodes.

Man in the High Castle season 2
Just watched the first episode of Santa Clarita Diet - weird, funny, but don't think I'll stick with it
Black Mirror - hit or miss - every episode is free standing

It's over a year old, but really enjoying season 2 of the Leftovers. Just one of those shows never got around too last year, 3 eps in and I'm hooked.

Removed the politics. Don't do it again.

This x 100. I had mentioned it in the 2016 thread, but with the third (and final) season starting in April, errbody that isn't caught up should start their binge soon.

First season is entertaining and lays good character groundwork, but the second season is bold and surreal and the type of TV that you sit back and say "that was awesome, but I'm surprised it got made." Even if it isn't your bag, you won't feel like you wasted the time.

Did anyone watch Billions on Showtime? Just finished season 7 of Shameless and thinking about what else to start.

Will continue to watch Better Call Saul when season 3 starts in Spring. Don't have any other planned watches this year.
