I'll probably still tune in but I think it's lost the magic of the early seasons.

Binged watched Mr. McMahon and thoroughly enjoyed it. Although Vince is one ****ed up dude.
Gives us a real insight into what went on behind the scenes.

I binged through it in two nights, as an old school wrestling fan "this saturday night, Festival Hall"), I found it fascinating & cringeworthy in equal proportions.
Watched a couple of movies which were pretty decent, Selma is about the early activities of Martin Luther King. "On The Basis of Sex" is about Professor Rita Ginberg, good story but the hollywood treatment made it a little 'twee' at times.
Watched it last night, pretty good overview and highlights just how big he is overseas.
Some of those Untold docos are pretty decent but that sign-stealing one is utterly stupid and just shows how the yanks like blow a story up to epic proportions when there is little or no substance in the first place.
One of the best series ever, could not stop watching it !!!
"Margin Call" was a frustrating movie that made me keep watching just in case it reached a better height.
The storyline centres around an investment firm and their impending implosion but you never fully understand how they come to that conclusion with the modelling they are basing it on. Added to the flimsy tale, the way they treat their staff (i.e. boot them out) is simply appalling and rather dumb.

Watched "Uncut Gems" a while back and even though I reckon Adam Sandler is a total dud actor, he is very good in this one.
"The Foreigner" turned up on our inhouse TV whilst travelling overseas, my wife loved it and made me watch it when it was repeated, and yes, it is a ripper even if it does feature Jackie Chan.
"I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore"is a terrific arthouse flick, well worth watching.
You can't go wrong with "Where the Crawdads Sing".
"Emily the Criminal" is a little implausible at times but is still a reasonable flick.
Whilst the racism displayed did greatly upset me (most of that stuff from those pre-war days always does), "Mudbound" is a terrific movie.
If you want a strong Aussie period piece, then give "The Nightingale" a go.

The Americas Cup won was brilliant.
This movie proves that he can act and he should have challenged himself more throughout his career. Stuck to that stupid formula for way too long and needed to reinvent himself earlier before he started regularly churning out pieces of crap like Grown Ups and Jack and Jill.

I really enjoyed Kaos and thought it set up season 2 nicely, and the fact that Netflix has cancelled it means I'm probably going to cancel it out of pure spite. I get it if a show is a piece of shit it's probably worth putting out of its misery but why can't they at least give good shows a couple of seasons to finish their arc? I'm sure there's plenty of series over the years that have taken a couple of seasons to build an audience and then gone on to great things

It's not just a question of quality but cost. Some of these prestige shows are costing so much that even half decent viewing figures aren't enough to save it. Shows sometimes do need a couple of seasons to build an audience so perhaps look at making it for a bit cheaper.

I realise that, but I'm suggesting that they should factor all that in instead of essentially making half a movie. There's no point watching anything that isn't an instahit in case you get left high and dry, which I've had happen a few times this year

We watched "Late Night with the Devil" last night, and though it was not really scary, it was kind of kooky enough to keep us interested. What got to me was that 70s-colored stripe they used, which was very reminiscent of what John Wayne Gacy had in his house.
