    Caught S2 of Ironfist. WITHOUT SPOILING IT i'll say FINALLYYYYYYYYYY . And Coleen, BAM! It took a few before it went a direction i was happy to see it go.

    Now i have to watch S2 Jessica Jones and Luke Cage. Hopefully LC is getting out of the ghetto, blaxsploitation sthick and kicking it up a notch. Especially after The Defenders series.

    Jack Ryan's on the list, which should roll over nicely in to the next season of The Man in The High Castle.

    As for Westworld. I think another member might reconsider watching it. There's a few twist n turns that will have you go Oh Fuk. Or not, your choice.

    Not sure how I missed this show, but Norsemen on Netflix is excellent. Anyone who enjoys history should be enthralled with this show about 8th century Vikings. I find it to be historically acurate, yet still have a pace and plot that doesn't leave the viewer wanting.

    No likey.
    I watched JJ Abrams' TED talk.

    Ever since then, I can't watch anything he's involved with because once you know that he's a one-trick pony, storytelling wise, you can pretty much predict anything that's going to happen in any given storyline.

    If there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to buy a gun, there's nothing wrong with having to show an ID to vote.

    For legal reasons, that's a joke.

    I have a difficult time with this myself, as more and more I recognize the basic parts of a story more and more quickly. Here's the set-up, bit of character development, problem is introduced, previously unforeseen obstacles, etc, etc.

    Are you sure you have the right title?
    Norsemen on Netflix is a Norwegian comedy show - hardly "historically accurate"
    A little slow at times, but a good watch.

    ETA: "The Last Kingdom" is more historic, and a better series IMO.

    I feel like if I gave a review of Monty Python meets 8th century vikings, I'd trick less people into watching this comedy gem.

    Speaking of comedy[ish] The Good Cop with Tony Danza. NY/ Brooklyn based story line with (to some of us) very familiar outside backdrops. It's really not for anyone who doesn't get ethnic / regional based shows. Each one is a stand alone hour show, with more (again ethnic / regional) humor.
    The 1st episode

    SPOILER ALERT
    Where Tony Danza says (loosely quoted) He's got a guy with a big screen tv coming over, was on the money NY funny, but oh so true.
