    I am FINALLY watching The Sopranos. The only full episode I ever saw before this was the last one, lol. So i am on full binge watching mode on it - in the middle of season 2. Yes, it is really really great!

    Watched the first Silicon Valley last night because my wife wanted to check it out. She works with a lot of nerds and had heard a lot of good things about it from them. And I like Mike Judge. 

    It was OK. I didn’t know that it had the rapey bro from Office Christmas Party in it, though. It was decent, but she might be on her own with that one if he doesn’t get Ned Stark’d soon. 

    Excellent show however that shitty dude is on the show for the first 4 seasons I want to say. That said the comedy gets better and better by the season with that show.

    Meh. I've got plenty of other comedies I can watch and feel better about.

    So jealous. You still have the pinnacle of all episodes to look forward to in season 3, Pine Barrens. Hilarious.

    Pine Barrens is among my absolute favorites.

    My sister recommended M is for Mississippi.  One episode in, and pretty good.  Gallows humor pulls me in every time.

    I just watched the food poisoning episode at the end of season 2 today - that one is pretty fucking funny!

    I would recommend Normal People (BBC here in the UK and Hulu I believe in the US).  Irish drama based on a book (which I haven't read).  12 episodes of 20-25 minutes each so an easy binge.  Follows Marianne and Connell from ages 17 to about 22.

    Another is Gangs of London.  Far fetched violent gangster show.
    So are we strangers now? Like rock and roll and the radio?

    Boardwalk Empire (HBO) has not been mentioned yet. Steve Buscemi at his finest. This was one of my favorite shows on TV when it aired. Highly recommend.

    We’re almost done with season 1 of Mindhunter on Netflix.  The season continues to get better as it goes along.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    Devs and Plot Against America on HBO Go. 

    Both short, 6 episodes I think, but worth it. 
    Music is what feelings sound like.

    I just read it's suspended and no 3rd season on the horizon.  We'll definitely watch through the second season.  Interesting they are involving the stories of actual serial killers in this series.

    I felt the same way.  I had a tough time through episodes 2-3, but after they started getting involved in trying to solve cases with local police, it got much more interesting for me.

    I started Narcos last night.  2 episodes in, I think it's great.  My wife likes it, but doesn't like the sub-titles.  Doesn't bother me in the slightest.
