Thread: What are you watching?

I like Haunting of HH too. Not enough to binge it, but it's pretty cool.

Finished Making a Murderer Season 2. There's not really much in the way of spoilers below, especially if you have seen season 1. But just in case someone wants to be totally surprised.

 

There is some new evidence. Some even compelling, but not enough to convince me of Avery's innocence. Perhaps they will eventually get enough to satisfy me.

As I said above, while I think it most likely that Avery did it, I simultaneously think that the Manitowac County authorities altered/planted/hid evidence in an effort to make sure the man they believed committed the crime did not get off. This behavior by law enforcement is inexcusable, and should be punished.

Regarding Dassey, I am still strongly convinced that Brendan Dassey's confession should have been tossed out, and that his trial was a miscarriage of Justice. It's just mind boggling that his confession was allowed to begin with, and absurd that Wisconsin's judicial system continues to fight to keep him in prison.

So far I am quite enjoying it. The acting, especially from the kids is remarkably well. These kids these days are doing tremendous jobs of acting. I am not a big TV show guy, but there are a few shows I have that craving to watch. This is one of them. It also helps that the adults turn out pretty hot. the guys too. what?

Check out the show. It is good. Not so much scary, yet, but there are creepy parts and it is well done. It is more like a mystery than anything and I love to try and solve the problem before they get an foreshadowing in.

I loved it. Great show.

Just started watching this, not binging it either but not bad. Has some creepy moments.

Want to start the last season of House of Cards but alas have to wait for the significant other to get home because she will be pissed if i watch it without her. Lol

I would have to send this in a PM out of respect for the rules of the board. It is also an opinion based off of my own views, so it's not offered as authoritative. It's also an opinion that would draw the ire out of my former colleagues and peers, but it is a considered opinion.

Book is SOOOOO much better. Neil Gaiman is a fantastic writer.

I've been juggling my usual shows. (Flash, Arrow, Legends of Tomorrow) Arrow shockingly is good again this season. Actually, better than its been in a long time.

I picked up Manifest and started watching it, it's fairly interesting. I'm about caught up to season 3 on Lethal Weapon. I love it, I think I'm going to hate season 3 since they fired the guy playing Riggs.

I also started re-watching Battlestar Galactica recently. I forgot just how good that show was. I'm about 10 episodes into the first season.

Dave, have you seen the new season of Marcella? I thought it was pretty good.

Book was fair. He can be good at times if there's nothing better to read. He'd be great if he was a little darker or something. I can't put my finger on it. I should like his stuff more than I do. But I just don't.

Fortunately, the Milk--a children's book by Gaiman--is the best children's book ever. The Graveyard Book is also great for families. I think he should stick with that genre.

No mate, but I will take a look

Oh man, we need to get Freyaka into some better TV...do you have Netflix? If not, why not?

He's got several books that I really enjoy. American Gods, Anansi Boys, Coraline, Neverwhere, Stardust and The Ocean at the End of the Lane. I like the way he incorporates mythology into his stories.

My TV watching is fine Mo. I like Superheroes, I'm always going to like superheroes. I have a love/hate relationship with the CW shows, but those three are for the most part decent (except Arrow...It's suck the vast majority of its existence, but it has a good season every now and then, this season is a good season)

Manifest is interesting, but suffers from poor acting, but the premise is interesting enough to overcome the acting. (kind of like Timeless)

Lethal Weapon is seriously good, like I'm actually shocked how good it was, I wasn't anticipating it being worth watching but, Clayne Crawford (who plays Riggs) has done a fantastic job of just nailing the part of Martin Riggs (and it doesn't hurt that I loved the lethal weapon movies growing up).

If you are giving BSG crap...I won't talk to you anymore. BSG is a masterpiece.

Yeah, lots of people like him and tell me I'll like him. He's just too comic-book for me. Same reason I'm not crazy about Marvel movies--some work for me, some don't. It's all good. Read what you like!
