Just finished Mad Men. What a great slow burner of a show. Highly recommended.
*SPOILERS* I feared Don would end up killing himself (the intro suggests it), but the show left him on a somewhat positive note. Which I like - negativity isn’t necessarily the best and most realistic choice.

- Is it that good? I see it everywhere might give it a shot then_niko
- I'd say it's entertaining (so far... 4 episodes in). Definitely R-rated, and much goofier than most Marvel or DC series. Gunn has more leeway with DC I guess.evilpeacock
- goofy, dorky and ridiculous. def a good laugh. hard to say if it's good. real entertaining for me.pango
- few sec of boobs and vag. def R ratedpango
- Lot of comments that it's "not funny". I'd say the humor is pretty dry most-of-the-time, with lots of subtle visual jokes/easter eggs.evilpeacock
- One example of a visual easter egg is the "Henenlotter Video" sign, which refers to cult director Frank Henenlotter (Basket Case, Frankenhooker, Brain Damage)evilpeacock
- Gunn seems to have free reign on the direction. And some joke will definitely get taken wrongly.pango
- Seems similar to The Tick. My kids want to watch is so bad. The love John Cena and DC movies but I think they have to be much older to watch this.fooler
- ^ Good decisionpango
- Yup, I wanted to share watching with my 13yo twins, but due to the high level of inappropriateness this isn't happening.evilpeacock
- I'm a terrible dad I guess, watch it with my 12-year-old son.ShenanigansTV

- Really enjoyed this one but then Season 3 ends with a cliffhanger and USA Network cancelled it. Hey Netflix we need a final season.Ramanisky2
- I watched the first season of this. Rick Grimes wife was in it too. It seems like ages ago.CyBrainX
- I just wrapped the final season this evening, it's a shame that this just went away.utopian

- Smashed this show in a couple of evenings and I thought it faded off into a blithering mess of predictable nonsense. Would not recommendIanbolton

- main protagonist supposed to be super smart. but the actor made him look like a big teddy bear.pango

First two episodes were amazing.
- Devs vibesgrafician
- Yeah, with a touch of THX 1138.mort_
- very cool shots, nice intro, good actingBeeswax
- Devs + Homecoming vibes. Bit of Tales from The Loop, too. 3 eps. in, slow burn tension. Liking!jagara
- lost me after 20 mins inGardener
- I watched the season finale last night and I still can't stop thinking about it. This may already be one of the greatest shows of all time.CyBrainX
- It's a concept for a good 2 hour sci-fi film, stretched out over 2 seasons. It drags, they al drag. Enjoyable all in all, though.jagara

Dumb and hilarious. Easy to binge in 1/2 a day.

Watching When They See Us. Feeling nostalgic seeing Michael Kenneth Williams. A very well made fact-based drama series.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before.
I was into the show back then, and this miniseries extension doesn't disappoint. Hope they keep it going.
- it was okBennn
- Sometimes you've just gotta say. I get it. Enough is enough. You were good to me in the early 2010's but lets move on.Hayzilla
- I thought this was as good as most of the original run.CyBrainX
- Sometimes you just want to spend time with characters again. I liked the small town setting and the consistency in tone with the original run. No complains!spl33nidoru
- Good ending. Story is over.
I hope they wont revive it with his sonBennn - Just let it die already!pango
- I don't see how they could continue that story.CyBrainX

I haven't played the games, so went in with a blank slate.
First 15 minutes of the first episode had me on the edge of my seat. Can't wait for more!
- You should know in the games they never reveal Master Chief's face, while in this first ep. they did just that :))grafician
- Never played the games either but liked the show. The aliens are a bit ham. But the tech suit designs are great.PhanLo
- The Halo "saga" is very long, they could stretch the series to at least 5-6 seasons
Production value very high toografician
