Finally started watching Transparent. First several episodes have been outstanding.

After working hard to get through the 1st season of Man in the High Castle, the 2nd season was actually decent.

2nd season was to MITHC what the 3rd season was to Breaking Bad. 
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny.  Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.

4 episodes and I love it.

Think my favorite character thus far is the daughter of the family that lives in the trailer park.

Absolutely.

On another note ...

Now almost finished with Season 1 of Transparent. One of the best shows I've seen in recent years.

I can see why Tambor keeps getting nominated for Emmies (and has won twice). I understand why he had to leave the series (yes, more sex charges against a Hollywood type), but it's hard to believe they can continue without him. Of course, I say this without having seen 80% of the series to date. So much outstanding TV, so little time!

The next seasons are just as good.

Some of the most fearless acting I have ever seen.

Thanks brand. Looking forward to watching the rest of Season 1 and then 2, 3 and 4.

My wife doesn't really like binge-watching much, but she loves Transparent, too.

She was also very good in The Americans.

Damn - that's it!

I knew I had seen her in another show I watched and I couldn't place it. Thanks!

Anyone watch NatGeo's "The Long Road Home" about the attack on Marines in Sadr City in 2004? 

I thought it was very good.

Watched Bright, interesting mashup. Training Day with Orcs and Elves.

I'm not a middle Earth guy, I actually avoid that crap, but was entertained. Got campy at times, but a fast and fun 120 minute watch

Only reason I watched it was because it got killed critically, but fan ratings are coming in much higher and it's been watched 11 million times already.
