What TV Series Are You Streaming Lately?

Saying Veep is pretty good "actually" is like saying The Godfather is pretty good "actually." It's only won 17 Emmys. (Though I never got into Modern Family so maybe I shouldn't talk.)

I'm about 5 episodes into Bojack. Not blown away, but always looking for half hour series, so I'll stick with it.

First couple of seasons of Veep were great. This last season was ehh.

Just watched the first episode of Peaky Blinders. Me likey

Loved the first two seasons. Still haven't been able to watch the latest episodes released. It's not sucking me in like the early ones.

I meant to imply that I didn't expect it to like it that much. Also, fwiw, the first season of it is the lowest rated one on RT (70% vs 95-100%).

Watching Vietnam on PBS Roku channel.

That post came across way more serious than I meant it too.

I'm losing faith in Rotten Tomatoes lately.

Last season of Veep was definitely weaker. I hope they can finish strong.

Need to find a way to watch Vietnam. Still need to watch The Roosevelts, too. Maybe I'll give in and donate to local PBS (even though I can't pull it OTA) so I can get the exclusive streaming stuff.

I didn't realize there were 6 seasons of Veep already. Of all the seasons, 6 was the one that I found the least entertaining.

Watching the Ken Burns Vietnam series on PBS. It is excellent and certainly his best produced series to date.

i have The Vietnam War ready to watch but I'm wondering if it covers anything that the excellent Vietnam in HD didn't?

Anyone watching The Deuce on HBO? So far I think it's a step down in quality from most of David Simon's other work but still well worth watching.

 

[Joffrey]

Watching it too. It's okay. I'm kind of sexed out thanks to GOT.

 

[Van Veen]

I've been watching. Simon's series have always been slow starters for me, so I'm cautiously optimistic.

It takes time to lay a proper foundation

Watched the first two episodes of Peaky Blinders. Couldn't get into it.

I'm now at Season 2 Episode 4. I can't believe I never stumbled across this earlier

****. S04E07 of Hal & Catch Fire was already really good. The season finale, E08, probably even better. Probably the best "drama" tv espiode I've seen in a while. Or even ever. Really enjoyed it.

Edit: Just realized that there's still two more episodes left. lol
