Urgh, Curfew Time

Starting today we’re back to curfews and I’m really not looking forward to it and mostly because I’ve run out of TV shows to watch. If you have any recommendations on new shows, pleeeaassseee share them below. There are a couple of movies I’m planning to watch (Coming to America 2, Nomadland) but I don’t have any shows lined up.

On the other hand, I’ll be using this time to go back to working out again since I’ve been slacking off the past two weeks, and I will be doing lots of yoga and lots of video games. I’m still playing Valhalla and just started Dirt 5 last week which btw is the best rally game I’ve played since the original Sega Rally.

What do you guys have planned?

I just finished 2 seasons of Monarca on Netflix. Over the top Mexican drama about a corrupt family of tequila producers. Good fun!

Also started Soulmates which is like a subdued Black Mirror

Other recs:
Call my Agent
Your Honor
Wandavision
I care a lot

YouHonor & Wandavision are great shows, but you need to watch through the first couple of episodes of wandavision before it gets good. If you don’t mind watching a depressing but really good TVshow check out “it’s a sin” I binged it in one sitting.

Lupin is really good too

Roadkill
Good Girls
Industry
The Third Day
The Sister
I May Destroy You
Fleabag
Black Monday
The Flight Attendant

I’m sure there’s more. Way too much time on our hands 🤦🏻‍♂️

Her excessive and seemingly pointless drinking got on my nerves, but then as the show continued we see that her alcoholism is deep rooted in a history of child abuse. But yeah, I don’t care if there’s a season 2

Anyway, Kaley Cuoco is the main reason I could never ever watch The Big Bang Theory and I kind of feel vindicated.

Mark, I’m pretty sure I told you about Dix Pour Cent (Call My Agent), you or Tarek. It’s like Entourage except with French film agents and honestly it’s much better than Entourage. It helps if you’re a Francophile but, most of the time it doesn’t since they have the biggest French stars like Jean DuJardin, Monica Bellucci and Jean Reno.

Zaydoun, you have excellent taste! Is Monarca a telenovela?

I’ve started to re watch stuff.

season 1 of altered carbon Twin Peaks the twilight zone, and if your not PC Crazy All in the Family…. but I cant find the directors cut of Dune…

the wire is amazing (not so much season 2 other than ziggy) i must have seen the show 4 times.

the sopranos you can watch again too; the pine barrens episode one of the best all time.

I rewatched the sopranos before the wire, it was sooooo good, also held up really well and it was also reason I decided to rewatch the wire.

You would have watched these… but just incase you haven’t…

Hostages (Beni Aruba) – the Israeli one
The spy
Our boys

Heard Lupin is good as well.. I haven’t watched it myself though but it’s on my list for this curfew

got hooked onto Israeli shows after Fauda… and I don’t have any reason to dislike Israelis as such anyways… no political agenda for me..

How did you get past the payment issue? I tried to sign up (with vpn) but Hulu wouldn’t accept a non-US payment card

A little while back, I started with the original series of Star Trek and am working my way through all the series and all the movies. But I am a Trekkie nerd. 😁

If you’ve never watched “Fringe”, watch all 5 seasons.

If you’ve watched “Fringe”…

…re-watch all 5 seasons. 🤣

1. Your Honor is awesome (esp. because its tough to watch the original show here!)
2. Industry
3. Behind Her Eyes
4. OA (at least Season 1)
5. Upload (S2 is out soon)
6. Moonbase
7. Avenue 5
8. Little Fires Everywhere
9. No Man’s Land
10. The Vast of Night
11. Fleabag
12. The Third Day

Try out the arrowverse shows, specifically the flash, but arrow, legends of tomorrow and supergirl are also good.

If you don’t mind explicit (very explicit) sex then Industry on HBO / BBC iPlayer is superb.

The Snyder cut of justice league drops on HBO Max mid month and Godzilla versus Kong at the end of the month.

The Terror just debuted on BBC iPlayer if you didn’t see it yet (Ridley Scott).
Mr. Mercedes is absolutely cracking. First two series on Peacock for free in US and third is pay for.

Picard is fantastic.

His Dark Materials (HBO Max / BBC iPlayer) is very very good too.

This is a random list of TV shows I liked

Recent:
Defending jacob
Star girl
The undoing

Not recent:
Sharp objects
Escape at dannemora
Devs

What genre you are looking for?

Not in relation to tv, but interpretation of the rules…Outdoor parks(egalia to be specific) without a gate or anything, can we walk there during the day? I have gotten mixed signals on this, what does this group think?

So now today, Al Shaheed is open to walk only 7-3….I think I can walk in Egalia, however, with yesterdays trafic nightmare, I am not sure i want to go out at all really….

WandaVision

Also, definitely play COD Warzone, that game is addictive! I will continue to play that as well as finish the Gears of War series
