Checking out Wonder Man on Hulu off a coworkers glowing rec (I do not like this coworker and think their taste is shit) - does that qualify for a spite watch or something closer to hate watch territory? Or am I just torturing myself to prove myself right?
3 eps into Money Heist: Berlin and fully locked in on this show
Togetherness season 2 is also amazing. They crushed it with this show
Onto Only Murders In The Building season 5
The Beauty was a great show. That ending of season 1 was a little befuddling tho… still not sure how I feel about it. Felt abrupt
Woke s2 is awesome. Really funny show, excellent writing. Deserved so many more seasons
similar to the Knives Out movies -> every new iteration is both stunningly fresh and amazing in it's own unique way. Mike White's really captured lightning in a solar powered bottle with this series and it's incredible
I started eating fruit regularly in 2026 and this shit rocks
Diving into White Lotus s3 finally as well...
Togetherness season 1 is amazing. No notes. Simple and delightful
Current watches for my fans:
-Woke s2
-Togetherness
- Beauty
Solid season - went unexpected places but very tightly wound once again. Best show on TV presently
Insane headline after Qatar. Or were all the dead slaves not blood on the hands to you lot?
New series cast - Kal Penn, Shipka, Minghella, Jimoh, Chuck Heaton, Forlani - is a legendary reset of the deck so far
Locking in to Industry season 4
Dying for Sex is so so good. Great concept and the friendship between the leads is beautifully complex. Would rec
Money Heist: Korea is aces. Same fun n games of the OG with a few great new twists. Loved it
Finally finished I Love LA - very delightful end to end. Characters really grow on you in interesting ways, which is the marker of all great shows. Funny and clever too
Ripley is a masterpiece. another 10/10 miniseries. impressive, visually dynamic work from one of the all time masters Steve Zaillian. just legendary shit
watched Under the Banner of Heaven and what a sleeper hit this show is. has the gravitas of a True Detective and the crime wtf-ery of a Brad Ingelsby penned series (Mare of Easttown, Task). feel like no one watched or talked about this show but it's awesome. legendary Andrew Garfield performance too
also binged Death by Lightning. easy 10/10. the cast all around is superb. mcfayden's on an absolute heater too. never would've guessed I'd love a show like this, but by damn they nailed it. got a bit of the assassination of jesse james by the coward robert ford to it
started Beauty... holy shit it's a great show. Murphy's back to throwing his fastball and it's brilliant
finally watched s4 of Atlanta. Glad I waited until I could fully savor. One of the all time shows - prob on my Mt Rushmore - so funny
Put on the spanish-language 2024 Zorro series on Amazon last night. Bc look, I loved Zorro growing up and was willing to give it a chance. Unf the pilot episode is brutal. so shit. gonna give it two more eps out of respect, but this may be my first stop-watch (stopped watching) of the year #hatehard
Thought about the “it’s easier to hide behind 40 atrocities than a single incident” line from Andor and I’m experiencing a side effect from that idea, which is that trying to keep up with all 40 atrocities will make you go nuts
Ethan Hawke is terrific in The Lowdown. by the same creator of Reservation Dogs. Would rec!
then there's s2, ep 7. a MASTERFUL episode (the only ep creator David Weil directed). at times you're like - is this bad Inglorious Basterds opening scene parody? but it just keeps on building and progressing and getting gnarlier until THAT payoff. holy shit it's one of the best TV eps of the decade
Hunters season 2 - it's good but doesn't totally live up to season 1. Tbh the big, "shock" plot line falls so flat. as does much of the flashback work (the Zuchs backstory was a snoozer). but most of the present tense Jonah/Hunters timeline is still aces like s1 was!
Most watched actors/ Most watched directors of the year is always a vibe lol
it's just so fucking brilliant. season 3 when???
