What are you watching

[tozmervo]

We live in times to catch up on TV and Movies. We started "The Americans" last week and are working through the series now. I'm really enjoying it, but damned if the theme song isn't haunting me in my dreams. How about other folks?

Tiger King on Netflix - it's wild

[11 HouseBZ]

Finished Hunters on Prime last week. My wife's choice for this week for us is Self Made. My current game, I'm replaying The Last of Us: Remastered for obvious reasons. Current house project, spraying the heck out of all the weeds in my yard (just got a letter from my HOA). If I get another letter I'm reporting them for not following the new stay at home order. They definitely aren't essential.

Oh and I'm catching up on reruns of Wild'n'Out, The Office, Fresh Prince and of Price is Right when at work.

Wild is an understatement.  You couldn't come up a fictional story this crazy! 

First episode I was like, "these people are a little nuts".  After episode 2, my jaw dropped.  I am through ep 5 and have no words to describe it.

Started the show Bosch last night on Prime.  Entertaining and pretty mindless.  Based on Michael Connelly detective novels.  Lot of seasons which should help last through the stay at home order.

I'd suggest getting HBO if you don't already have it.  Latest season of Curb, The Outsider, McMillion's, The Plot Against America are all worth watching

The Pharmacist on Netflix once you're all done with Tiger King.  It's not as in your face as TK but almost as crazy/infuriating

2nd The Pharmacist 

[videtur quam contuor]

Grand Designs-Netflix. British show follows people who have way more enthusiasm and hope for their new home than sense (or money). Irish Castle. London home four floors below ground level. Those sorts of things.

Love Grand Design!

Money Heist on Netflix was really good if you can get past either the subtitles or it being dubbed. I opted for the dubbed version. There are 3 seasons too so lots of runway for a binge.  Westworld on HBO just came back for 3rd season. I'm not at all into sci-fi or westerns, but was quickly hooked on the show. Season 2 is rocky, but so far season 3 is great. All the others mentioned are solid too - The Outsider, Curb Your Enthusiasm, The Pharmacist, McMillions, etc. Admittedly, with the extra time and running low on new shows, I've gone down the rabbit hole of trashy reality tv and got pretty into Love is Blind and The Circle on Netflix. They're also mindless, so good background TV when you're doing something else, although I found myself pausing the other thing to see what was going to happen next.

FYI:  Youtube carries some series that are not available elsewhere. (UK) Escape to the Country and Escape to the Continent are favorites. Monty Don gardening series.

We succumbed to peer pressure and started Tiger King last night.

Holy S.

I just finished episode three. It’s a slow moving train wreck and I just can’t look away!  

[eastsider]

Currently watching The English Game and Million Pound Menu on Netflix, plus various stand-up specials. Looking forward to season 2 of Sunderland Til I Die next week.

Tiger King because y'all and some friends of ours recommending it. What. The. Hell.

[UrbanCharlotte]

Tiger King. Starting episode 4 now. Who else thinks Carole Baskin is guilty?

[KJHburg]

I am watching golfers from balcony on a Robert Trent Jones golf course. 

[grodney]

Definitely need to look into this Tiger King based on the posts above.

We're watching Top Chef season 1. 

I also started The L Word a few months ago....now on the final season and still sneaking episodes when the wife and daughters aren't around, which is......never, hahahaha.

As someone who is British, I am so happy that Grand Designs is getting some American recognition! haha 

 

I highly recommend The Marvellous Mrs Maisel and One Day At A Time!

If I hadn't already watched it, Maisel would be an excellent binge right now. Really wonderful show!

James Bond is on HBO FYI

Homeland.  Just finished Season 2.  I was always peripherally aware it was filmed in Charlotte, but I had no idea it was Claire Danes!  I still have a crush on her from the MSCL days.

It was always fun to see how they changed the real locations of Charlotte landmarks. I think one chase scene had her walking through South Park Mall, then going down a stairway into Blackhawk Hardware.
