I hear they are coming out with a prequel to Dexter. I thought the one season of Dexter part two was flimsy. The season with John Lithgow as Trinity is the absolute pinnacle of the series. They went a tad too long with the original but the ending was awesome. Seinfeld knew when to stay down. Ditto with Breaking Bad. Yellowstone was good, now it's gotten cheesy. Curious to see how the spinoff goes with McConnaughey.

I watched the first part of Horizon. I was pretty baked but the first two hours seemed okay, while the last hour was all over the place. Apparently the next part starts to tie it in a bit. I'm a big Western honk but this is about a 6.5/10 in Hargraves' humble opinion. It's a four part deal so it hopefully gets better.

I'm curious to see Costner's exit on Yellowstone in November.

I actually haven’t done Yellowstone yet and I hear Horizon is a let down. Directors need to chill on movie lengths. Scorsese does this as well. Get to the point or make it a series.

Movies seems to be dying a slow death. They might as well rename the Industry - Marvel.

Dude have you watched the original Dexter? Not the spinoffs. Next to Breaking Bad, the best show ever. Bronze to The Wire.


Do you know what Contrave is?


I can't get into NFL WEAK 2. Need to the quarter point to see who's who.

Where is Reef banging the drum about the BC Lions?

Horizon is part one of four. But it gets laggy at three bills. I'm hearing Part 2 ties it more together... not sure.... Costner if nothing else puts himself out there. He's gotten soaked a few times but he puts his money where his mouth is. Unsure of where the hate for him and Tom Hanks comes from. Apparently two of the better people in the industry. Unlike cunts like Christian Bale and Tommy Lee Jones who treat people like shit.

Watching a pretty good Danish mini-series. It’s in the near future as the country gets evacuated due to rising sea levels. I don”t know what you know about Denmark, but it is tiny, flat and has a lot of shoreline. No real mountains or rock. It’s basically just sand and dirt. Very good farmland, but as the sea rises they will have nowhere to go. There highest mountain only amounts to a mole hill, 170 meters above sea level… :lol:

Anyway, apparently CBC Gem has bought the rights for Canada. Don’t know what that is or if anyone has it, but if you do, it’s a pretty good watch.
Danish drama FAMILIES LIKE OURS (7x60, Zentropa Entertainments for TV 2 Denmark, STUDIOCANAL and CANAL+) from Oscar-winning director Thomas Vinterberg (Another Round, The Celebration) envisions Denmark in the not-too-distant future, as a family copes with mandatory evacuation due to rising water levels. All episodes begin streaming Friday, November 22.

I don't watch tv not involving the Canucks but I think CBC Gem is just the CBC's streaming service.

Of course the CBC is the public broadcaster in Canada. It is taxpayer funded.

Picked up on Vikings a few weeks back.

Just started the 5th (and final) season.

Not to shabby.

Vikings is a fun show.

I'm almost through season 4 of Preacher - based on a graphic novel, so a little 'comic book' like at times, but entertaining.

Just watched Grotesquerie - interesting show that might keep you guessing.

Preacher started going a little sideways for me in S3.

Never did watch S4.

House of Cards is next up for me.

First two seasons of House of Cards are excellent. While the latter seasons weren’t as good, I was still enjoying it and found myself disappointed when they ended the show.

Lincoln Lawyer on Netflix is good too.

The Penguin season finale was top shelf. One of the best shows I’ve seen in awhile. Farrell, seems to be on a roll lately, his last show ‘Sugar’ was excellent as well. Highly recommend The Penguin if you haven’t seen it, as well as Disclaimer, both on Apple.

Yep - the Penguin ended on a good note, and set up some fun stuff for season 2. 👍

Just finished Ripley on Netflix. Slow, but we'll done, with amazing cinematography.
