What Are You Watching in 2019 (or re-watching)???

[Billy Hoyle]

Just started Derry girls. It's pretty funny

Me too. Really enjoying it so far. I can understand the accents and slang thanks to my extended time inIreland but my wife is struggling a bit.   

The thing that gets me is the actress playing Erin is 25 and Claire is 32. Must have found the fountain of youth in Derry!

Bill Burr new Netflix standup is good.

On an "old film" streak right now (inspired I think by rewatching QT movies recently), mostly films that I missed or had only watched parts of  (exception Chinatown, which I have seen 4 or 5 times):

Bonnie & Clyde (I challenge anyone to name a more beautiful/sexy actress than Faye Dunaway in this film; I had of course seen her in many other films [see Network and Chinatown below], but B&C is a revelation).

The Third Man

Network

Mean Streets

Chinatown

Great Escape (original)

I recommend all of them.  Kind of a sky is blue recommendation, but anyway...

Just watched On the Waterfront. Perhaps Brando's best performance and a young Eva Marie Saint's first performance.

Brando was amazing

You absolutely, positively, did NOT need to add the 2nd sentence.

Having said that, I hope this thread doesn't get de-railed as it has been a solid source of info thus far.

It was a fair warning of the content....he exposes the Cancel Culture throughout....brilliantly done.  And the reason why I said it, he is normally appealing to that group, but he takes a different turn on this one because of far crazy people have gone

Watched Rebellion on Netflix. Saw the first season when it was a mini-series on History Channel(Easter Uprising) and now there is a second season with some of the same characters involved centered on the action leading up to the peace treaty.....I'm guessing there will be a 3rd season that focuses on the Irish Civil War.

Very solid show that definitely had some twists and turns I didn't see coming.

He normally appeals to cancel culture? Your knowledge of Chappelle is lacking.

He most certainly doesn’t appeal to cancel culture, which is the whole point of why I loved this special.  How insane it has gotten.  I worded it poorly.  Let’s try it this way.  In his shows he will talk about his disdain for certain people, shall we say, policy makers.  He will also talk about his bromance with one particular person.  That’s fine, his right.  Many other supporters of those stances are on the cancel culture crusade....he is not.  Hopefully that clears it up.

It is also within people's rights to organize boycotts, etc. to get shows cancelled.

Yup, and for comedians to expose their lunacy.

Justice for Juicy.   I don’t think I have laughed harder in that part of the show in quite some time.  No wonder Vox hated it.  Lol

[The Hippie Satan of Hyperbole]

I'm glad you are easilly amused.

Solheim Cup.   Great theater.

Started Carnival Row on Amazon Prime. So far I find the world interesting, but am not sold that I love it just yet. Bloom and Delavigne are fine...I don't know, I just don't get into her acting. She comes off as somewhat flat and not very charismatic to me...like ever. Maybe those are just the roles she gets. I'll finish the first season to see how the storyline pans out, but not as engaged as some other shows.

Also rewatching Breaking Bad now. The first season doesn't feel as slow-paced the second time through. I remember feeling like the guy in the basement, Walt in class, all those moments just seemed to drag. Second time through it feels faster-paced. Not sure why, I would think the opposite would've been true.

Just watched first two episodes of Unbelievable.

Pretty gripping stuff so far, and the lead actress (Kaitlyn Dever) is very talented -- good in every role she plays.

She was my second favorite thing in Justified just behind Timothy Oliphant

Added to the list-thanks.  One of those that I have seen scenes from, but never watched in full.

Watched the pilot for Euphoria.  Don't think I'll continue.  Very difficult to watch (with good acting and interesting direction and tone).  While I don't *believe* it accurately depicts HS life in 98% of the country, just in case I am wrong I am glad that my kids are well past HS.

Yep, she was great in a limited role in Justified, that's for sure.

Watched the whole season. There were a couple of times I asked myself, out loud, Why are you still watching this? It was mostly depressing. But, as you say, the acting was good and it was strangely compelling to watch the various meltdowns.

Anyone here watch Stargate? Currently watching all 15 seasons.

Huge fan....even liked Atlantis spin off. Though anything with Macgyver has gotten me in.

I also enjoyed Atlantis and its more serialized seasons. We don't talk about that other spin off.
