Sherlock. One episode away from completion. Hope there is a season 5.

Finally getting around to watching You. Saw the first 2 episodes. Creepy as hell, but somehow alluring.

Anybody watch the Aaron Hernandez doc on Netflix? Came out today. I watched episode one and about 15 minutes of episode two before MU v. X.

yes, in two nights. I'd read the James Patterson book so there wasn't much new to me. The book went deeper into his time in Gainesville and crimes committed there.

Saw John Mulaney at the 92nd Street Y last night. They screened his most recent Netflix special "John Mulaney and the Sack Lunch Bunch." Afterward Mulaney and a group of the writers and directors were interviewed by Seth Meyer. Meyer and Mulaney were both writers on Saturday Night Live at the same time.

For those of you who grew up in the 70s and 80s it's a satirical look at TV shows we grew up watching. I'm not sure about the rest of the country but on the East Coast they were shows like Electric Company, Zoom and Wonderama.

The show is very funny. If you're into the "mockumentary" type of program it's definitely worth the watch.

My wife and I watched the first episode of Escaping R Kelly and she doesn't want to watch anymore.

We've heard Sex Education is a fun show. Anybody here watched it?

First episode of Curb was great Sunday night. Feel like last season started a little slow as they worked on bringing everyone back into the fold and giving out some fan-service jokes. Came out firing first episode season.

I watched it, It's a really good show. It's a little awkward at first because it is based around high schoolers talking about sex non-stop (obviously the actors are all older) but if you can get past that it's good.

This. Kind of a strange attempt to combine a British secondary school experience with an American one.

I felt this episode was way better than any from last year (only season that disappointed me somewhat). Felt more like the old episodes.

Big fan of John Mulaney but I didn't think The Sack Lunch Bunch was funny.  Grandma's Got a Boyfriend song made me laugh for some reason I can't explain, though.

I think my favorite part was either the "Girl Talk" segment or the last number with Jake Gyllenhaal.

In a completely unrelated note I watched "Blinded by the Light" on the plane back to JFK from the Packers debacle. Was pleasantly surprised.

That was great, and the Jeff/Weinstein thing had me howling.

I'm like ... he really DOES look a little like Weinstein. It was a great idea to incorporate that into the show.

And let me tell you ... if Larry really did what he accidentally did to that catering chick in the kitchen, he'd have been hauled off to jail!

Sorry if it's already been brought up, but has anyone watched the most recent season of Peaky Blinders? That finale had me on edge

Watched the first episode of Star Trek: Picard last night.  Enough to make me watch next week.  We will see where it goes from there.

Where it goes?

To space ... the final frontier ... where no man has gone before.

Duh.

Ha.

What I mean is that it already has some of the "super hero" type vibes that have worked their way into other series.  And I don't need to see more hand-to-hand, quick action fight scenes - especially in series where they were never a major part of the plot.

Have watched the first 2 episodes, it's definitely good so far.

Other than football/basketball/baseball I don't watch too much TV, so I really only watch a handful of shows. I recently randomly decided to watch a favorite of mine, Justified. I'm in the beginning of Season 2, this show is so good.

I enjoyed Justified as well. I thought it got better through the years.
