Monty Posted April 4, 2018 Author Share Posted April 4, 2018 Masters of Sex - Season 1 Very interesting series so far. In university I majored in Psychology, focusing primarily in Human Sexuality, as well as Behavioral Psych. Anyway, everything that the series focuses on I’m very familiar with on a scholastic level. Recommend for those that are interested in a history lesson, with drama obviously added in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I should cut the cast some slack, I forgot it's filmed in front of an audience. I really wish they would show seasons 1-5ish(up until Roseanne dyed her hair black and got all that plastic surgery) on tv somewhere, I don't have any streaming services.

Yeah I have the Laff channel that airs Roseanne from 6-8pm each day. It's nice to watch it, and then on Tuesday's after watching it, turn to ABC, and watch the reboot at 8pm.

Tre Mac Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Forgot the channel but I watched the first two episodes of Three's Company the other day. I remember watching this show as a kid and not getting what it was about or all the jokes but I got to stay it was ahead of it's time (1978ish?) And that original theme song... one of the best. See you all at the Regal Beagle 8/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did show the first two seasons on Prime a couple of years ago. This is one show where I prefer the older episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Down by the River Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Retribution (AKA One of Us): 8/10 Mini-series on Netflix. The story was really great, but I think the way the story was told could have been better. Some cheap cliffhangers that thankfully don't really matter since you can watch the next episode seconds later. Good show if you like inter- and intra-family conflict.

D-Money Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 Fargo, season 2 - 8.5/10 Hard to top the first season, but it's still fantastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted April 11, 2018 Author Share Posted April 11, 2018 Masters of Sex - All 4 Seasons Season 1 was very good, though very graphic. Season 2 was incredible. Focusing more on the study of those who are suffering from sexual distinctions, rather than studying the “norm”, which was what the first season was. Season 3 was where it lost a little steam and focus, but still an overwhelmingly positive watch. Season 4 was disappointing. They knew it was getting cancelled and had to rush what they were doing to close it out with some sort of resolution. However, despite how rushed it was, particularly the last episode, they wrapped it up as well as they could have under the circumstances. However, it’s a shame they couldn’t go on for at least another season or two. Unlike other series that go on for far too long, the studies of Masters and Johnson expand decades. Another season or two could have had them focusing on a lot of other areas they pioneered. Again, not a series for the faint of heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted April 26, 2018 Author Share Posted April 26, 2018 The Leftovers Finally finished watching the last 3 episodes (began the series back in October). Loved how it ended. So many ways Damon Lindelof could have screwed this up like he did with Lost, but he definitely learned from that disaster that in shows like this, not explaining things make the show better. Terrific, terrific show. One of my all time favourites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugor Hill Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 The Americans - Season 6 - 9/10 If the past 2 seasons have lost you, come back. This season is all in. You can smell end game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugor Hill Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 (edited) Fear The Walking Dead - Season 4 - Dead/10 FTWD is infected with the Scott Gimple disease. The Gimple disease has previously infected and almost killed TWD. Now it's Fear's turn. Edited April 26, 2018 by Hugor Hill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 Broadchurch, season 1 - 7.5/10 The first season was generally strong, and interesting. Some of the actors/characters fell flat, but generally the writing was top-notch, and David Tennant and Olivia Colman made strong leads. Broadchurch, season 2 - 6/10 Season 2 was not nearly as good as the first. A lot of the subtlety went out the window, and they doubled-down on some of the weaker actors/characters from season 1. A lot of the drama seemed forced and contrived. I probably would have stopped watching had I not heard that season 3 was supposed to be better. Broadchurch, season 3 - 9/10 They really nailed it here. Basically took everything great about season 1, and took it to a new level. The story was allowed to unfold naturally, and was primarily focused on the police investigation. Tennant and Colman were better than ever, and their chemistry shined. Many of the weaker characters were put in the background (or dropped altogether). It's too bad the show is done now. Was really finding a nice groove there.

Hugor Hill Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Homeland, Season 7 - 8.5/10 This show always works for me. It doesn't try to be more than a straight up political thriller borrowing from current affairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been so long since Brody I don't remember how I felt about it then, but post Brody the show been able to consistently deliver one time thrills (meaning you watch an episode once, it's good, but you have no desire to re-watch), for me anyways.

I guess my thought at the time was because the entire first 3 seasons were dedicated his story, which was very interesting, I couldn’t believe further episodes of the below would be fun, at all: Though I’ve heard I’m wrong. So I’d like to go back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmen81 Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I still enjoy Homeland. Just watched the season finale and enjoyed this last season. I actually hadn't watche since about season 4, then recently decided to get back into it and was caught up again within a couple weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
