    Tulsa King is one of my favorite "dumb fun" guilty pleasure shows

    I wasn't expecting much but I've enjoyed it. I haven't finished season 2 yet.

    Dept Q was pretty good.

    First series I've watched where nearly everyone was Scottish. (Of course, the big exceptions were the lead actor and his sidekick). The accents had to be toned down a little to make it understandable to most people, but they were strong enough to make me laugh at times.

    The best part about the show was the Akram character. He can take care of business.

    Probably not to most on this boards taste but the wife and I just started watching "The Decamoron" on Netflix.
    A dark comedy set in the time of the Plague. i have to watch it with subtitles because many times the background music over volumes the dialouge.
    But like A Knights Tale, there is some great modern music mixed into the show. New Order, Depeche Mode, Edwyn Collins.
    I keep my phone next to me in case I get a banger to add to my Amazon Music playlist.

    Very bawdy, sinister and funny

    Just knowing what I know of you on Clutch I think you would like it.
    Our music tastes and age are pretty close, I think.
    Hell, what's an hour out of your life?
    Pack a bowl. Grab a Tito's and settle in, what ya got to lose?

    I think I'm gonna be a beta cuck tonight and have some pune-tang for dinner and catch an episode after i get the pubes from my mouth.
    I kid my lady is smoooooooooth.

    Zero Day - Entertaining with plot twists. Definitely wraps in a lot of today's news and happenings. I'd give it 7.5-8 out of 10.

    I finally finished my run of The Americans. Such an amazing show. But man is it heavy and tense.

    I stopped somewhere in the middle when it was on FX on the TV, for reasons I cannot recall. Now I plan on starting over and playing through.

    One of the very few shows week to week viewing is better than binging, in this case because of the intensity.

    That's what happened on my first watch. I was a live viewer through 3 seasons but lost track after that. Don't know why I waited until now to finally watch it again. But highly recommend if you are any drama fan. It's so well done.
    I was clutching in agony every episode of the final season but I had to know what happened next.

    On another note, now that I'm done with The Americans, I tried to move onto Andor. I watched the season 1 recap only to realize I remember nothing from season 1. So now I'm rewatching that before moving onto season 2.

    But that's also a testament to how great The Americans was to pump out a banger season after season yearly. The new TV format of 3 years between seasons is awful, and the quality isn't always worth the wait (looking at you House of the Dragon).

    I was a little stoned Saturday night, and my lovely wife went to bed early.
    I went to HBO Max and just put in surfing, and a docuseries came up called the 100-foot wave.
    What a bunch of crazy arse shite.
    I could never fathom such a thing, and the amount of training and prep for your support team.
    I highly recommend.
    Takes place in Nazare, Portugal.
    Who'd a thunk?

    Great series. Strong 3 seasons.

    In that same vein, Momentum Generation is a great watch covering 90’s surfing.
