I hate septuagenarian Patrick Stewart. He's insufferable. He seems to think he's cute.Pandemonium wrote:I watched the 1st episode of "Blunt" starring Patrick Stewart. I don't think the shtick of seeing Captain Pickard loaded and sucking on hooker titties is going to carry this show through more than a couple episodes.
The titular Westworld—originally created in 1973 by Jurassic Park author Michael Crichton—is a futuristic theme park where instead of lab-created dinosaurs running amok, you have terrifying robotic cowboys. So it’s not a stretch to imagine some boundary-crossing depravities going on when god complexes and compliant androids are in the mix.
But don’t expect those androids to stay compliant for long. The original Westworld film features a robotic revolt, and if the trailer is any indication, it could very well be Evan Rachel Wood’s abused android leading the charge.
hmmmm...i liked both of them. episode 2 of the affair is available to watch online and on demand now. i hate when they do that since i know i will watch it early. the leftovers was the best out of the three though.farrellgirl99 wrote:I thought the Homeland and The Affair premieres were boooooring.

How good was the acting? I love how season 1 went from dark family drama into a suspense type thriller. John Leguizamo ( I probably butchered the spelling) is in season 2, last I read is out this March. Danny was such a great character, I loved how the story unfolded and he got more and more scummy but you somehow kept rooting for him. The actor that played him stole the showcreep wrote:just finished it. if you guys didn't say it was good i would of bailed after the first episode because i thought it was boring. really good series. obviously set up for a second season but i'm not sure how good it would be without danny.blackula wrote:Anyone watch Bloodline on Netflix?

edit...just read that danny will be back for season 2 so that will be interesting to see what they do with him. without giving too much away i'm sure they will use him like his sister that would talk to him.
you ever watch "the wire" larry?Larry B. wrote:We started watching Luther a couple of weeks ago, good little show. Nothing too deep, but the performance of the main actor is quite good and the storylines can be intriguing. We already finished season 1, I'd recommend it.
Filmed over a 10-year period, Making a Murderer is an unprecedented real-life thriller about Steven Avery, a DNA exoneree who, while in the midst of exposing corruption in local law enforcement, finds himself the prime suspect in a grisly new crime. Set in America's heartland, the series takes viewers inside a high-stakes criminal case where reputation is everything and things are never as they appear.
