Am I going crazy or does baywatch look like it might actually be a funny movie.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Swim-happy white people?  Fuck yeah.

Peaky Blinders, season 2 - this show is so much FUN. And now they go and bring in Tom Hardy playing a jewish mobster/baker. Every scene he's in is hilarious.

Only 2 eps to finish this season, and then it's on to season 3. I'm watching Iron Fist on the side, just 4 eps to go on that one.

I love Tom Hardy in that role.

I didn't like the third season as much as the first two. In fairness that may have been because I didn't have the benefit of sub titles for the third and they really do mumble a lot.

Watched the first Chappelle stand up thing on Netfux. Enjoyed it quite a bit.  :)

Heh, watched them both the other night.  God to see him working again.

The Larch

He has a 3rd one coming shortly. AFAIK his Netflix deal is for 3 shows.

I really couldn't follow this show without subtitles. God, those accents and the mumbling.

Yes, loved it.

I have kind of stalled out on that at the moment. I'm not sure to what extent I enjoy it but then I felt much the same way about Daredevil.

I've been watching Catastrophe (Season 3) which unfortunately, like season 2, appears to have lost some of the magic the first season has. Maybe it is because the irreverent humour isn't as 'shocking' but just expected from the characters.

Also, finished first season of Chewing Gum. I guess it is in that vain of Britain interested on the lower classes front (takes place on council estate) but it is quite fun.

Oh and finished Grace and Frankie (Season 3). Such a fun show.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Catastrophe has tipped a bit too much from comedy to drama. Still good though.

It has moved to "might as well finish it since I got this far" territory for me. It's been spinning wheels for the last eps.

people on the internet really want it to fail because he isn't Asian enough, even though the comic book character isn't Asian.

Saw the first handful of episodes of Narcos. Really liking it.
