"Cobra Kai" was added to Netflix and Im about done with season 1. What a great show for someone who was a kid in the late 80's and watched the KArate Kid movies.

That is next on my list of things to watch. Loves me some Karate Kid.

finfangfan · 08-29-2020, 04:06 PM

I’m almost done season 1 and I agree that Cobra Kai is excellent.

ssilva872 · 08-30-2020, 03:01 AM

Ratchet looks really good.

My brother and I binged Season 1 of the Umbrella Academy and after all the hype I saw online and the praise my sister gave it I was left underwhelmed...

I like time travel stuff and post apocalyptic storylines are usually intriguing but I felt like the show started off really slow got better in the middle portion then kinda lost its sh*t the last two or so episodes...

The writing I usually find to be poor and the special effects look bad a lot of the time.

Idk if we will press on but they really tried to make viewers want to continue. The trailer for Season 2 didn't impress me much.

This hits on a lot of levels. I was surprised by the humor of "Cobra Kai". I've seen most of the first season, and I'm sure glad there's a whole 'nother season already available and a third one greenlit for 2021. I'm hoping Hilary Swank will join the cast.

In the same nostalgia mode, NetFlix has an excellent documentary series on the origins of the home video game industry called "High Score". I've seen about half of that and have loved every minute of it.

I thought "Umbrella Academy" Season 1 was hit and miss, but wow, Season 2 was next level excellent. I'm hoping "The Boys" can make the same quantum leap, and it easily can, if it doesn't soften up the source material like it did last year.

Other than a few nitpicks, I found that to be a pretty dang good series overall. I would recommend it as well.

I just binged watched season 1 of Westworld. I liked it. Typical TV series, at times very cool, at times really silly. Story is good, but the silliness hurts. Evan Rachel Wood is hot. That is all.

Enjoy that first season as much as you can because it's pretty much all downhill from there.

escapegoat · 08-31-2020, 12:07 PM

watched an odd compilation of shorts but presented as a movie of sorts. i really enjoyed it. i’d never heard about this project.

available on prime video.

indyguy · 09-08-2020, 01:50 PM

I've been going back through CSI, the original one. I've always enjoyed it as sort of mindless entertainment.

TheWrightStuff · 09-08-2020, 02:24 PM

Im just finishing up rewatching the "Hell on Wheels" series. Great show. Will be watching 2nd season of "The Boys" next.

Rabs · 09-08-2020, 02:43 PM

Kingdom on Netflix was really good. One of the most emotional shows I’ve ever seen.

ilovethelakings · 09-08-2020, 04:57 PM

Finished up season 2 of Cobra Kai. I thoroughly enjoyed both seasons so far. Hell, even my wife was into it. One night when I tried to switch over to watch something else, she demanded that we continue with the show. We can't wait for the third season to come out!

Through season 1. Helen Keller can see what's coming but it's a fun show

I thought I figured out how season 2 would end and I was almost completely right.

It’s a fun one though.

The ultra predictable fan service is what I loved a hell of a lot from season 1. As for season 2, you could see a lot that was coming after the first couple of episodes, but the journey getting there was fun. I think we basically know what is going to happen in season 3, but I dare not spoil anything for anybody who hasn't seen the first two seasons yet.

escapegoat · 09-08-2020, 10:15 PM

binged first season of Absentia. pretty good, moving to 2

TheWrightStuff · 09-19-2020, 04:20 PM

An EXCELLENTs series I just watched is "Travelers" on netflix. Great scifi series (time travelers come back to present day to try to save humanity) Great series and has a really good series ending.

TheWrightStuff · 09-22-2020, 12:15 AM

The se ond season of the netflix show "you" was excellent, better than the first.

escapegoat · 09-24-2020, 01:26 AM

sept 25th release

kidfan9 · 09-24-2020, 02:03 AM

I just started watching "Zero, Zero, Zero" on Amazon. Pretty good so far. It's a bit on the slow side maybe but I'll keep watching. Filmed in Italian, Spanish and English with subtitles. Anyone else watching or finished it?

Bearsfan54 · 09-24-2020, 01:10 PM

That was a great show, They could of done at least 1 more season

Currently watching season one of Cobra Kai, it's pretty good. Like others have mentioned, it is extremely predicable but entertaining.

These are all in the rotation:

Cobra kai
Season #4 Lucifer
Criminal Minds (worked my way backwards, season 7 currently)

jeg2315 · 09-24-2020, 06:17 PM

Caught up on The Boys earlier this week. Great show.

Almost finished with Hanna Season 2 as well. Interesting, but a bit slow in my opinion.
