I skipped the whole season, but i watched the Series Finale of Curb Your Enthusiam. Damn, have the cast aged. But, it was a funny episode and I laughed out loud a few times. Good ending, far better than Seinfeld.

That one and the intensity of Fishes right before it really pushed the show to new heights.

I finally got around to watching The Wire.
Great show, as everyone says. Although they do leave out the drop in quality/boredom that is season two when claiming it as the best show ever. Thankfully it picks up again in season three.
I’d still recommend it overall, great cast, and well written for the most part.

I've been watching a lot of dramas lately so it's just good to laugh like an idiot rewatching "Eastbound & Down".
Forgot how funny it was

My Adventures with Superman
Super gen z. Tonal and pacing issues, but nothing egregious thus far considering it's a happy take on Superman. If I was a writer I'd make Superman a bit more formidable, but I guess they want to grow him as a character over several years.
Anyways, great animation. Some really vivid fight scenes.
A 4/5 when it comes to the characters bouncing off one another. 2.5/5 when it comes to a Superman punching things show.

The only thing that has me interested in that cartoon is Tomboy Lois Lane
They gave her some impressive cake in some scenes. I was like, wow gen z, I didn't think you had it in ya.

I LOVE My Adventures With Superman! It's a great toon and shows him young and learning on the job! He screws up sometimes but he has a good support system who are learning as they go along with him.
I just watched the whole season of Supacell on Netflix... I thought it was great! Yes it doesn't have them all get together earlier in the season (it's only 6 episodes) but it felt the most like Heroes season 1 of any other super show! Regular folks trying to understand their powers and find out they have a big bad to stop. I'll just say this: look at the title of the show and something comes up in the first episode that hints at the connection in THEIR world.
Also, one of the last lead characters (Sabrina) is fine and beautiful AF!

I really enjoy how they do the whole "it's obviously Clark" routine thing before just dropping it.

Stumbled on a hospital drama I never heard of on Paramount + "Code black".
I just watched the Pilot and no one has had sex how crazy is that?
A hospital show about actual hospital stuff, this might be good.

True Detective season 4: Night Country (Max)
Binged this one in a few days.
I liked the setting, the overarching story, the smooth cinematography, soundtrack, and dreamy score. The writing was mostly a modern take on proper dime novel pulp like the first and third seasons with a caveat I'll touch on later.
The acting was good across the board. I was impressed with Kali Reis who I only knew as a professional boxer prior to this. I appreciated the light callbacks to the disconnected lore that extends throughout the series. It reminded me of how authors of the past and present may reference Lovecraftian lore without explictly tethering their works to his world.
The caveat: I think that the writers(s) danced with the possibility of the supernatural being at play too hard for the series. I preferred the subdued approaches that were employed during the first and third seasons - the maybe it's real, maybe it isn't angle. Things are returned to the previous paradigm during the final act of the series finale, but I could see the first three episodes turning off fans of the more grounded previous seasons.
Beef (Netflix)
One episode in. Really well shot, solid humor. Steven Yuen doesn't miss - he must either know exactly what roles works for him, has one of the best agents in Hollywood, or both. Added to the watchlist.

I thought Beef was quite hilarious, one of the better Netflix original comedies. I finished Tires on there the other day, I'd recommend that too.

The Night Agent (Netflix)
The lead looks like Joey Lawrence or like he's related somehow...
It's a really good show. Good action, good story (IMO) and a good whodunit... Good resolution too!

Just watched the season 2 finale of My Adventures with Superman
For a show that often placed Superman in the backseat to instead tell stories about Lois Lane, Jimmy Olsen, Kara Zor-El, and Clark Kent, this episode was all about how Superman improved those around him. Jack Quaid portrays such a good Superman and Clark Kent.

We started watching Moonlighting (1985). It's help up fairly well and clearly had a fairly high budget. I barely remember this show other than that it was HUGE when it was on air back in the day...I was like 12 at the time lol. Cybil Shepard & Bruce Willis supposedly hated each other through most of the filming over 5 seasons. You can kind of see it in their chemistry, but it just works for this show very well.

Supacell on Netflix
Fun show, I really liked it. Very fast paced with only 6 episodes. The plot itself is interesting and reminded me of shows such as Misfits. The character development was really good, I liked all of the main characters and the way they get brought together by the powers. It was cool.

Yes! It reminded me of season 1 of Heroes. And the mystery behind who is the bad guy was really well handled! I hope it gets a season 2. The plot, pacing, story and action were really well done on a small budget!

Uh... wife read some spoilers and then procceeded to tell me what happens later on. What a shitshow ffs.
So you have this hugely important criminous called Reddington. There's a whole story behind him and how he is related to the detective he calls in to give cases and so on (the cute girl I talked about). We spend the whole show thinking Red is her father only to find out by the last season or so that he is actually her... uh... mother who went through transition to become Red. It simply doesn't make sense AT ALL within the story that is told.
I can't believe some of the shit these showrunners go on about.

did Fringe get and ending or was it cancelled?

Finished boardwalk empire like a week ago
Started the shield and saw a couple episodes so far Vic is kinda funny looking with his outfits makes me giggle
Also midway through the ultimate fighter season with grasso/shevchenko the fight with the Lithuania and Tajikistan guys was
felt kinda messy the ending but I did like seeing Luciano and lansky come out on top and start the commission for some reason. Felt bad that Gillian couldn’t get out the crazy house

Watched A Good Girl's Guide to Murder yesterday. Surprisingly, it's good. It's about young adults but not all of them are retards like in American shows. Probably because it's not American, lol.

They did a final season, however it was a bit disconnected and disappointing compared to the rest of show.
At least they tried to end things though.
Fantastic show though, cant believe it wasn't more popular.
I'm just about to finish Presumed Innocent on streaming, its been excellent. Highly recommend.

Presumed Innocent (Apple TV+)
First episode down. I am hoping there's more courtroom drama down the road, but I am enjoying the murder mystery and legal thriller elements so far. Gyllenhaal puts on a great and layered performance while refraining from ever chewing the scenery as he occasionally is wont to do.
