Season 1: The Alienist Season 2: Sara Howard featuring The Alienist! LoL.. another Spoiler alert. I do like the five points Irish gangs incorporation in season 2. Huge fan of Levine. If they do have a season 3 I'd like to see more built on the police corruption.

The Boys, on Netflix. Pretty fucking epic series. Not your typical superhero series which makes it really stand out. You'll know in the first 5 minutes or so if it's for you.

I love that show. I was hesitant at first because I'm soooooo sick of superheros. This ain't yo daddy's comic book story.
It's bad ass, shocking, disturbing (hands in the gills!) and super entertaining.
And Starlight is a smokeshow.
Can't wait for Season 3!

Oh, hell ya on starlight. This may be the best series I've seen in a looong time. Kudos to going waay outside the cookie cutter superhero script here. It's genius. Just started Invincible. My buddy said to check it out... Same producer or writer or something. Have you seen this one? I'm only at episode 2, but hooked already and so is the wife. It's an animated series, which I usually don't care for when it comes to non comedy, but it works. Very intriguing story so far.

I have not seen Invincible. I'll put it on the list! We just ran out of the funny in Modern Family(somewhere around the middle of season 5), so I've been looking for a replacement.

Try to catch Keira Knightley in "open secrets". Good flick.

I watched the first two seasons of Barry (8/season; 30 minute episodes) and it's awesome. Bill Hader as a hitman from Cleveland, Stephen Root as what I can only describe as Jimmy James from Newsradio merged with Mike from Breaking Bad, Henry Winkler as a once-celebrated actor now making ends meet as an acting teacher, and the guy who played the villain on the first season of True Detective as the leader of the Chechnian mob.
It's funny, played like a comedy in a lot of ways, but with some real drama elements and the drama elements are done extraordinarily well. Things like what does society do with a man who gets praised and affirmed as a cold killer when he gets out of service? There's a domestic violence storyline that is really well done. And there's a sizeable body count.
Great show. At risk of playing out one story line beyond its viability if the end of season two is the main line of season three, but the first two seasons are gold.

With the Pause and the Christmas break, this seems like a more important thread again.

And what happens in the first 5 minutes is what I've always said would have happened to Ryan Miller if Lucic has deliberately run him.

Twenty fucking five to one, my gambling days are done.

I've been watching 'Man in the Arena', which is a pretty self-indulgent Brady puff-piece, but is an entertaining recap of the past 20 years if you're a Pats fan.
Just watched "Don't Look Up" too. It's funny and a not too subtle take on a lot that's current right now in the real world. If you ever wanted to see Meryl Streep naked, from behind, here's your chance.

Check out “Crime Scene: The Times Square Killer | Netflix”
Great re-creation scenes. I used to visit my airline stewardess aunt in the early and mid 80s in the Murray Hill section of NYC. Lordy Time Square was truly seedy. Ive seen a thing or two In TJ Mexico, Mobasa Kenya and Bangkok Thailand but 70s Time Square was far more crazy.
Great Documentary

These are the best shows I've watched over the past four years or so. So much that I had these made in to 16x20 canvases for the wall above the TV. Can you name them all?

He was so drunk that you couldn't understand a thing. I left after about 30 minutes. The second time was at the Orpheum. It was an amazing show.

Those shows aren't going to be for everyone, but there's a great show there for just about any taste!

It was an amazing show. In keeping with the thread, I will watch the Hulu documentary. I checked my old venue stubs from that period, yup I was at the Orpheum front and center about 20 rows up. Oddly enough I saw Steve Earle around that time at the Paradise Club. Although I checked his tour dates, nada a mention or word. It must have been unlisted. Steve was fun to watch in the small club. Funny too that I rarely visit this thread, I have roughly 300+ of dvds. I am a cheap bastard who buys blu ray to have access to the my blu ray library via their website using the code in the blu ray jacket. I don't watch too much of any documentaries or TV series. I did watch 1883 with my GF episode 4, I found it way too much into revised history. Nonetheless thanks for the post.
