What TV series you watching?

[Legion]

Richard Hammond's Workshop.

Basically Hammond took a look at Clarkson's Farm, and decided to get himself a day job and make it into a show as well. Easy, light entertainment.

Finished The Sopranos again. Still disappointed with the ending. Great series though.

I think I need to do that. A big time commitment, though. With so many good new shows popping up.

 

[DrStrange]

Boardwalk Empire
I just started season 3.

 

[Rhody]

Th Larry sanders show.

 

[Anu]

(2021) Foundation... And it's another woke trap, besides, has nothing to do with Asimov's work, namesake and marginal references. I feel we're in the midst of a cultural Dark Age.

Just finished season 1 of The Blacklist (2013). Unsavory characters and uncomfortable violence is offset by interesting plot twists and James Spader’s crisp portrayal.

Synopsis: The show follows Raymond "Red" Reddington (Spader), a former U.S. Navy officer turned high-profile criminal who voluntarily surrenders to the FBI after eluding capture for decades. He offers a list of the world’s most dangerous criminals, and is willing to inform on their operations in exchange for immunity. However, he insists on working exclusively with rookie FBI profiler Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone).

Highly recommended. Seasons 1-8 streaming on Netflix U.S., season 9 airing on NBC.

The Blacklist is my number 1. There's even a few good shaving scenes throughout the series. Season 9 just started last Thursday.

S3 of Succession. S1 of Foundation. The former is pretty good, the latter is incomprehensible in its better moments...

Curb your enthusiasm
Two episodes of the new season. Larry’s still got it.

 

[Boghopper]

North Water on amc+
Pretty good. Colin Farrell does a good turn

 

[CallMeNugget]

Finished Deadwood (again)
Currently up to date in the newest episodes of Succession and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Foundation, or I was up until the last episode.

"Potential spoilers below"

I've been ambivalent about Apple TV's "Foundation" but had to give it a go seeing how much I love the books.
Gender swapping the roles? Heck, yeah - Asimov couldn't write a decent female character if his life depended on it.
Introduce backstories and other details to flesh out the characters? Awesome!
Change the means of interstellar travel? Umm, k, let's see where you're going with it.
Change the nature of the vault? Nope, didn't like that at all..
Introduce technology that didn't exist in the books for several centuries? umm, lets see where this goes.
Move plot elements around? Same.
Blatantly violate the Three Laws of Robotics? Deal breaker
The very idea that a robot could be knowingly turned into an assassin is antithetical to the three laws. Asimov created the three laws because he was sick and tired of "killer robot" stories.

Narcos:Mexico seson 3 on Netflix.

I just finished that earlier tonight. A pity it's the final season. I was hoping for a season 4 fleshing out Chapo's hot streak but at least I found the closing scene of S3E10 gratifying.

Black List from the beginning, on 2nd season.

I am glad to see Yellowstone back with it's 4th season.

I just finished the final season of Shameless. I had a love/hate relationship with this show but perhaps that was by design. I probably hated all of the main characters at one time or another. Of all the characters story arcs I think I ended up hating Debbie the most. She started out very likeable and was somewhat the moral center of the show early on but as the seasons progressed she became more and more unbearable. By the last couple of seasons I was fast forwarding any time I saw her face on the screen. I still don't think I missed anything by doing so. William Macy was excellent in his role.
