I'm in the middle of watching Timothy Bradley vs Ruslan Provodnikov and I keep thinking about the Sopranos, lol. James Gandolfini's portrayal of Tony Soprano is really something special. The characterisation has a breadth that Bryan Cranston as Walter White doesn't have quite so much of, much as I love it. Tony Soprano transforms psychologically and physically from the first episode to the last in a way that is, and here I'll use a much over used word, epic. I'm tempted to say that it's the single greatest acting performance I've ever seen.
What TV series you watching?
- Thread starter Mad Man
- Start date
Yep. That twisted satisfied grin at the end as she looks out the window, task accomplished.
I'm not surprised. It is realistic.
I'm with ya there! Anyone could have been Walter White but Bryan Cranston did do a very good job. Only one person could have been Tony Soprano, or any of the other characters. Who else could have played Paulie so well lol.
I agree on all accounts. I was happy to have a new season to start watching as Homeland ended, but the first episode wasn’t great at all. Hoping it picks up.
And I think there is supposed to be another Ray Donovan season....at least I hope.
Just started The Ranch. Sam Elliot is awesome.
Started watching Man In The High Castle. Loving it. Curious as to whether it suffers when the source material runs it's course.
The casting couldn't have been better. Paulie's character is utterly believable, just like Joe Pantoliano as Ralph. I wish he'd been in more seasons, his performance equals that of Joe Pesci in Goodfellas. But really, there's no weak characters anywhere. Remarkable considering how many of them there are.
It sounds like there will be one more season. I didnt even know it was cancelled...

I started Better Call Saul again last night. I had forgotten the episode about Mike's son and the other cops. I'm really liking some of the music too. It was this scene I had in mind when I suggested a film noir style from the 70's. Very cool scene.
Even the ones you only meet in a single episode really make the most of it, yeah.
We are up to the last episode of The Plot Against America. Meh. Yeah, Charles Lindbergh was something of a Nazi sympathizer and something of an anti-Semite, but I am guessing it was a lot more nuanced than that. But I think hte extrapolations from there are mighty big. And it does not make an entire TV series.
I think I would watch Winona Ryder read the phone book though. I hate the character she plays in this, and on some level I do not think the character, much less her love interest--is there anyone in history similar to this guy--but I think she sells it.

Schitts Creek. Very funny. Great writing, wonderful characters.
I'm frequently asked you know why vegans are the enemy of everything that is good and decent and must be hunted down and destroyed so their genes don't pass on to future generations, it's because if you can't enjoy even a stinky runny rice cheese like this you may as well kill yourself now.

I'm not usually a TV series guy, more of a movie person. I mostly watch things free with Prime. I've been watching an excellent Russian TV series called "Gogol". It's based on the short stories of a 19th century Russian Author. It's Fantasy Horror. Great images, acting, directing, screenplay.
