The TV thread

Severance is good. I was so surprised and loved what the outie said to Helly.

 

How Lasso'y is it?

 

Like Sunderlin Till I Die, a truly outstanding series.

 

It's really not. Reynolds throws around a lot of quips, but it's not going for comedy. And no romances, so far.
There is a scene where some of the players are complaining about how much more one of their teammates makes.

 

Watched the first two eps last night. I'm all in.

 

S3 of Trying (Apple TV) ended with a nice sweet bow tying everything together.

They skimmed thru emotions just to get to the other side.

 

Feels kind of empty without the go-to shows.

Lasso is taking forever to start S3.

Home Before Dark may or may not return for S3.

Trying just ended S3 after only 8 episodes.

Severance taking too long to start S2.

Not sure if Tehran is coming back for S3.

 

Geez, Severance just finished S1 in April.

 

Wrexham is great. It’s not Lasso. It’s not Last Chance U. It’s not All The Right Moves.

It’s kind of a little bit of all of them.

I wish it was longer. I wish it aired in the summer.

 

We finished The Resort last night. Waste of time — a total mess of a show.

Still loving Bad Sisters.

 

My wife and I really liked the show, but judging from reaction on The Watch podcast's FB group, it's a very polarizing show. Kind of like "Killing It," the commercials and trailers for the show make it seem breezier and lighter than it is. It's kind of like a dark comedy and a mystery box show mixed into one. I found the ending to be satisfactory, but I can understand why others didn't like it.

 

Without spoilers, I thought that there were too many major plot points which were completely ignored.
