Red Rock is back in all it's cheesy US Soap-like glory. It's actually pretty good tho. Check out season 1 on Amazon Prime if you can.
US shows.
I missed Blackish b/c I forgot it was Wednesday. This is Us - even their filler episodes (which this clearly was) are good.
Just watched Sneaky Pete on Amazon Prime. Watched the Trailer like damn near 2 yrs ago, they finally released the entire season and it's really good. Giovanni Ribisi is the lead and he's great. A lot of faces you'll recognize if you watched Justified. The cast was great and the storyline was pretty good throughout.

I'm stuck now waiting on what we briefly discussed last week which is there being a death episode where we gotta deal with Jack and William both passing away in the same hour. it's in my head and I can't let go of the thought.
Tuesday night's episode was awesome as usual. The first episode where the grown kids weren't all over the screen. Was still amazing!
Edit: I've got Sneaky Pete on deck for some binge watching this upcoming weekend. Gotta start using my Roku to it's fullest. we've got Netflix and Amazon Prime accounts that don't get used as much tas they should especially since we really only watch two shows - black-ish and This Is Us - on regular cable.

This is going to be good. Jude Law is great in this and the Vatican power struggle is crazy.
I missed This Is Us on Tues.
Blackish was ok this week. It was about Black folk going to therapy.

I watched 2 episodes and have to rewatch. Just like GoT I zone out, don't remember names and rely on my wife because I'm usually doing something else while watching.

Basically Cutty from the Wire and Thomas "HBO's Hung" Jane.
Its good, but not great tv. Great production values and they took some of the game of thrones playbook (lots of political maneuvering, people get murked) but its not as assured in its filmmaking. Tune in if you want good sci-fi, political intrigue tho.

Just caught the most recent episode last night. All in the name of the great Ragnar Lothbrook! One of the best joints I've ever watched. IN fact, I've always enjoyed pieces from this period. Never got into GoT because I didn't catch it from the beginning but I think I will now.
