Tiger King might be in the streaming HOF. It's so crazy though I had to take a  break between episodes


every time I thought it was going to level out they threw gas on the dumpster fire. It was really something.

I just watched the Trials of Gabriel Fernandez. This was the most difficult thing I have ever watched in my life. Without exaggeration or sarcasm, it is emotionally traumatizing. If you're going to watch it, give yourself some time emotionally to recover afterward because you will need it.

And that's why I stopped at the trailer.

If it hasn't been mentioned in this thread, consider this a recommendation, if it has been mentioned, consider this an endorsement.  Letterkenny on hulu, it's a very quirky canadian sitcom that is just so damned funny.  I blew threw the first 2 seasons yesterday and had some very hearty guffaws.  Enjoy.  Pitter patter

This is show is  excellent, thank you much for the recommendation. Always nice to see people  i know from past shows..the older lady on bench from Downtown and dads nurse from Catastrophe. BTW, Catasrrophe is awesome show as well!

 
No problem.

 

The lady on the bench was also in Shaun of the Dead. 

 

I’ll check Catastrophe out. Plenty of time on my hands at the moment!

Tip of the cap to Doc Antle.     
 

Luring in all the “wives” with Tigers is a heady play.  
 

Everyone throw on the Tiger king.   
 

RIGHT NOW.   
 

Exotic Joe’s 3 way wedding pink shirts is just too much.

I couldn't make it through the first episode, had no idea what's as going on or being said, and I am Canadian.....

 

Watched DCs Swampthing, and almost through Pennyworth. Swampthing is pretty good, Pennyworth isn't horrible so far. One of the guys on Pennyworth sounds like someone who has done a voice on Archer, same with the Boss from the British show The IT Crowd

I can understand that, but honestly if you can get through 1-3 episodes i think you'd find the humor.  The characters are great.  I'm already up to season 5 and i started from scratch on sunday.  I'm really enjoying it

I discovered "TIGER KING" last night by accident.

 

After 5 minutes I was hooked and went on a mini-binge that lasted for the first 6 episodes.  Was basically up all night watching that show.  I was actually about to create a thread just for this show; it is SOLID GOLD.  

 

I love documentaries and am on the lookout for good ones constantly.  This is one of the best I have seen, and as has been mentioned, it just keeps twisting and turning and becoming more and more riveting.

 

To an extent, it reminds me of "King of Kong" which is another great documentary, in that the show allows us a peek into a very small community of totally weird, interesting, and outrageous folks, with no shortage of crazy content to keep you entertained.

 

If you are a fan of non-fiction/documentaries, or just looking for something interesting to watch, I can't recommend this highly enough.

 

I still think we could do with a thread dedicated to the series.  There's SO MUCH to discuss!

Should have seen it coming but season3 of Westworld is going to suck fml

I saw episode 1 and loved it; it's a totally new/different show to what we had last season, though exploring the same themes. 

 

Haven't seen episode 2 yet however.

I started watching "The Plot Against America" on Spectrum Originals.  I didn't realize it was one of those "alternative history" tales until episode 2 when somehow Lindbergh, portrayed as openly pro-Nazi, traded on his image as a hero to not only be the Republican presidential candidate in 1940 but actually winning the election over FDR by running on the platform of "Lindbergh or war" while Roosevelt acted "statesman like" and several southern states voted Republican.   The absurdity of that scenario just killed it for me.  Everything about that is just so implausible in terms what the American political scene was like in 1940 -- the only things that were true was that there was a war in Europe and that there was a strong isolationist sentiment (but not necessarily pro-Nazi or anti-Semitic) -- that it's ludicrous.

 

Apparently, this series is based on a novel that was published in 2004.   I'll not be watching the rest of this series.

 

PS.  FDR won the 1940 election over Wendell Wilkie by carrying 38 of 48 states, 449 of 531 electoral votes, and nearly 55% of the popular vote.

Finally finished The Witcher.

 

What awkward friggin storytelling!!!

 

Yet, I will probably watch season 2 when it comes out.

I honestly loved The Witcher. I thought Cavill nailed the part of Geralt.

Started watching the prime series with James May from Top Gear.  6 episodes of him touring Japan from north to south.  Doesn't sound very interesting, but James May has a very entertaining delivery and it's a very fun watch.  I think it's called "Our Man in Japan" or something like that

If you like Ken Burns films, Prime has New York...it is the American Experience one. Super long, like 16 hours...but it is a fascinating look and history of NYC. 

 

Growing up in Niagara Falls, had no idea why we had the Robert Moses parkway..certainly understood after watching this film!
