Arcane s2 has started, if you appreciate my taste making I strongly encourage you to try at least the first 3 episodes of s1. It's amazingly good, like early GoT but with 10 characters instead of 50

I don't want to spoil anything but let's just say the dragons you're talking about do show up in a later episode.

Chimp Crazy has my balls. Comparisons to Tiger King are spot on, and 2.5 episodes in it's just as entertaining.

Did someone in this thread push back on the idea that the main chick had some mental issues? Because I think that's overwhelmingly obvious.
IIRC, MIR pushed back on it.

I may start Chimp Crazy this week.

Man, she's not mentally ill, lol. She might be a sociopath and have extreme narcissism, but she's not mentally ill.

According to the DSM-5, sociopathy, or more appropriately, antisocial personality disorder is a mental illness. As is narcissistic personality disorder. And like many mental health conditions more often than not the person is experiencing other mental health concerns congruently. Most often depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.

Finally those 3 years I taught high school psychology are paying off.

Okay!

My bad CNS.

I enjoyed it, and will keep watching. But holy crap, it got darker than I was expecting.

It didn't ruin the show by any means, but the kids trying to do a New York accent was very lol'y.

Lil Oswald’s accent cracks me up. Like he’s an extry on Disney’s Newsies.

We’ve been on an Apple kick lately. Disclaimer. Shrinking. Now Silo.

The Day of the Jackal has my balls in a vice after an episode.

I still cannot wrap my head around how that's Colin Farrell. Has fat suit technology really come that far?

It's actually a different actor playing Colin Farrell playing Penguin. He plays him so well you can't tell it's him.

I saw a clip of them putting him in all the makeup and thought "couldn't they find someone who is a better actor that looks more like The Penguin?" Apparently not.

Started Lost. I’m 9 episodes in. It’s not good, but it definitely has me by my balls.

SILO. About 3 quarters of the way through season 1. kind of confused as to what's even going on.

My wife and I loved SILO. I'm not sure if it's good or not but we really liked it.

We haven't started season 2 but we're excited about it.

You're in for a treat. But be forewarned, no TV show will ever satisfy you again.

I have never watched Lost and am thinking of changing that.

_33 · « **Reply #15799 on:** November 20, 2024, 03:03:13 PM »

Watching LOST now is all well and good and you should definitely do it.

BUT, you should watch it one episode per week. No binging. And wait 3 months in between seasons. Invite friends over in the evening for big episodes or season finales. Pause every few minutes to simulate commercial breaks and talk theories, predictions, etc. Get the whole LOST experience.

Or just do what you want.
