I don't know why, but I like the Life Below Zero show on National Geographic. I respect people who go off the grid. Is Fletcher on it? he probably came on saw all the nonsense threads and said fuck this...No appearance when hockey started back up though, we may have to go get him.

OMG, a guy came over to the house to give us a bid on refinishing kitchen cabinets... this guy was Mike on Breaking Bad/Better Call Saul reincarnated!!
His voice was exactly the same. Plus bald, older, smaller guy with white goatee. Looked a lot like him, sounded JUST like him.
Freaky.

Ozark, Bosch--flat out 2 of the best shows I've ever seen for different reasons. Caught up to date on both. Breaking Bad, I literally just watched their first episode. Long way to go from here. Like it already. Atypical is very funny and smart, good teen-angst type show with parenting, fidelity and so many other subjects addressed within a show about an autistic teen. I like Atypical too. Rapaport is a good actor. Douche otherwise as far as I can tell.

He does a really good job in Atypical especially considering its not his "typical" type role. He's not a hot head or a funny guy, just a Dad working on issues with his wife and kids.

I assume he already had a tunnel built to my basement to steal my Tony Conigliaro Ball. On another note, I’m loving rectify. It’s slow, esoteric and I think a lot of people won’t like it, but I’m enjoying it a lot. And I like Amantha.

Finished Breaking Bad....what a series, loved Cranston, he deserves all the praise that he has received award wise over the years. Walter White, an amazing character. Aaron Paul brilliant and Hank in the last few seasons...great lines, great writing.

Seen Copland about 20x--great movie. Liotta maybe at the top of his game. Easily one of Stallone's best 3 films, he actually acts in this movie. Certain individual scenes are great from Liotta dealing with his conscience on the highway to DeNiro belittling Sly...*you had your chance, AND YOU BLEW IT!!!!*...lot of good work.

Switching to movies. And believe me, there are a lot of good movies, some made in the last few years, BUT a perfect example today's crappy Hollywood Land is the lack of competent movie critics, the Rotton Tomatoes of fans likes, many of whom settle for crap. I watched on HBO The Way Back, it got good critical reviews and a critic from the Atlantic said it was Ben Affleck's best role....ummm no. It was a poorly scripted movie that had some good ideas but never followed up in trying to make it true character piece of an alcoholic former great HS basketball player turned into coach. Affleck was the only thing that was half decent about the movie, but it was a klunker. His own movies have been his best acting--The Town, Argo, and he was terrific in Gone Girl. And he's no great actor by any stretch, but he's a lot better as he's gotten older. I just think I wasted 100 minutes watching a film that is now considered today's standard for "best work" or 4-star movies...P-A-T-H-E-T-IC....Also the TV series I've been watching is a better example of how good writing, good acting and good storylines make a difference in anything you watch.

Gone Girl is the scariest movie I have ever seen. It was a good one for sure, especially when you can fit Winnipeg in the script, thats scary in it own right!

I've been getting my fill of European crime drama's, Swedish, Finnish, Norwegian mostly, all well done. On the plus side they are mostly subtitled so i don't have to turn the volume up! Also enjoyed Perry Mason remake, 8 part series on HBO, different take based on Mason's earlier career and how he ended up a lawyer.

The Bridge was another one. But they've all started to run together on me, so I need some place to pull the thread and start. We started Umbrella Academy. About 5 episodes in and it's meh. Too much soap opera and not enough story. I'm hoping it follows that Netflix series arc where the first half of a season is all establishing stuff and then it kicks over the cliff and acclerates downhill. I'm struggling to start another series, though. Too much looks just too familiar and hard to distinguish from the pack. And I'm fighting against getting Amazon Prime or any other new streaming services, so....

Just watched a German film 🎥 "Sarajevo" about the Franz Ferdinand assassination. Its on Netflix and really good.
