Don't worry, in 20 years the network overlords will have implanted both sensory gratification and mainstream withdrawal chips in your brain so you will crave and feel like you enjoy the poorly written

Always Sunny has been on absolute FIRE this year thus far.

Fargo is back April 19th, can't wait!

Workoholics has been funny as hell this season as well.

Watched the Legion pilot, pretty awesome television. If any of you guys dabble in the "reefer" it's a good show for that.

Love Always Sunny.... It's going to go down as one of the best comedies in TV history when it's all said and done. Every week has been a home run... 

 

April 19th can't come soon enough!!

I've only watched the first episode of Legion. I was a bit underwhelmed, actually. The setting was fantastic, liked all the actors, but the pacing of the first episode was sloooooooow. The hallway scene after the "incident" seemed to take an hour for no real reason. I think Hawley was trying to ramp up the intensity but it fell flat for me.

 

Overall, lots of like about the show but I hope it evens out a bit going forward. The mind-bending scenes are fine (sometimes good) but in that first episode, it felt that if something required a minute, they took three to show it.

And still...I love where they've gone with it, though I will say there could be ugly routes to go with this. I hope they don't go there, but the mental health worker for nearly a decade in me is absolutely enthralled right now.

Villains name and a deep back story that comes with it is revealed. God damn I love this show.

A new show that came out that is good so far is "Trial and Error" on NBC. It's a comedy, and produced in a mockumentary style similar to The Office and Parks and Recreation. They're basically making fun of "Making a Murderer", the Jinx, Serial, and all of the other crime TV shows out there.

I should have jumped on Legion earlier after y'all were raving about it. I'm completely bought in.

 

The last episode with The Shadow King/Lenny retro-dancing Bond style across David's memories is simply one of the best scenes on television in awhile.  Noah Hawley + Aubrey Plaza needs to keep happening.  Their brand of whacky goes perfectly together.

2 episodes in so far. Didn't think an X Men themed type of show would be for me but it's awesome!

Just picked up Curiosity Stream and while they need to build up the volume of content, they are doing it right. Think what Discovery and History Channel used to be before they turned into trash.

 

We watched shows about Stradivarius and violin crafting and Medieval knighthood as samplers.

 

Then because it's our anniversary and we already went out yesterday we put on Pete's Dragon on Netflix. Because sometimes you just need to feel like a kid again. Baseball used to do that but not so much anymore. :(

Just watched the first episode of Patriot on Amazon.  Unique; oddly deep and comical.  Here's wondering if the show can keep it up. 

Finally finished this show. I really dug it.  It's a dark comedy/drama about a spy who is in way over his head and sings factual folk songs to cope.  Not for everyone, but it was for me.
