Oh wow. I'll give it a try but Walter Goggins was half of the appeal of Justified.

I have called this guy Walter Goggins (ignorantly) at least a hundred times and you're the first person to correct me.

Are you suggesting they watch it, or I watch it? I backgrounded the first season, which was ok. I tried watching the first episode of Season 2 while on the stationary bike. It was so bad I turned it off.

They are enjoying the new Sex in the City show and Emily in Paris currently.
Is Ozark any good?

Everyone says yes but I couldn't get into it for the life of me.

It's so unrealistic… but I think it's definitely worth a binge.
Mark Hammill spent yesterday singing the praises of the CBS version of Ghosts cast on twitter

the show consistently gets better with each episode.. just ignore anyone who had seen the UK version and criticized it after two episodes because they ruined another British show.. yes the first episodes were a bit rough and even we had our doubts… but very glad we stuck with it.

also we are enjoying very much Abbott Elementary (ABC) and Grand Crew (NBC) and on Hulu

I gave up on Ghosts after 4 episodes, and LOVE Ozark.

I just feel like it's shitty Breaking Bad or diet Sopranos. Like we've seen this done so much better by other shows.

If you're going to try to do a male-anti-hero-living-in-a-world-of-crimes show and you aren't capable of topping what is already out there or putting some super unique stylistic spin on it, you need to go wildly in the other direction and be just openly comically unrealistic, a la Yellowstone. Like I can acknowledge Ozark is better than Yellowstone but it's also still not particularly good, interesting, or unique and Yellowstone, via not really trying, is at least one of those things to me.

I know not seeing something has hever stopped me from reviewing something before…but this is exactly how i think i'll feel about this show. And it's four seasons. If it was a single season, I'd be more inclined to give it a try. But an hour long drama needs to be damn good to invest the time it take to watch four seasons of an hour long show. I can only think of a handful of shows in the last 20 years that I've done that with (Lost, Breaking Bad, Justified, Homeland, Homicide, the Americans, Handmaid's Tale (though the 4th season was pretty bad.) And then, I think on all of those shows, I watched them more as they were being released, not after the series was over.
