What TV Series Are You Streaming Lately?

I finished The Stand today. I too was hoping for it to get better, but looking back, the first couple of episodes were probably the best.

In retrospect, not a series I would recommend.

Watched the last 2 episodes last night. It ended awfully. You were right.
I had such high hopes.

Wasn’t there already a Stand miniseries with Rob Lowe, or did I dream this...

I did not. 1994!

I don't recall if I saw all of it back then, but I found the whole thing (6 hours) on youtube a few days ago, and just watched the first hour. Quite corny, but definitely better than the new one (script by Mr King himself).

I remember watching it all those years ago. Not great but better than the 2020 version.

Rob Lowe, 26 years later, looking exactly the same age.

Class...
One of the greatest 80s boobie movies of all time.

I just want to go on record and state that Archer Season 10 is probably the worst season yet. It's utterly confusing and the plot just drags on and on. I'm only on episode 3 and just want to get through it already. This is the 3rd and final season while Archer remains in his coma and the previous two seasons were probably my favorite in the entire series.

Season 8:



Season 9:

Netflix now has the first three seasons of Billions and we watched the pilot last night. The wife character to Giamatti was one of Don Draper's early girlfriends and the wife of Jax in SOA. I have to say this is her most interesting character yet.

The drama with Jax and his wife was when SOA went from a fun biker show to a soap opera

Anybody who enjoyed 24 from back in the day would probably take a liking to Fauda on Netflix.

It's a lot of the same energy applied to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. To my eyes, it's also surprisingly even-handed in its treatment of the characters, considering it's an Israeli production.

Netflix kept pushing this at me and finally I gave in. Perhaps because I had absolutely rock bottom expectations, it was better than anticipated. Utterly predicable, but mildly entertaining.

I liked it as well - felt too short/compacted at 6 episodes though
