Just finished watching Locke & Key on Netflix. It was a good shaw overall but my God, the season finale was terribad. Rushed, predictable and with the awful writing.

Agree. It was fun but the ending left a lot to be desired.

Like the avatar.

final Devs episode.

great show that IMO stuck the landing. i'll post more specifics when i know you've seen it. i'd love to see more tv from Alex Garland but i think that was a good ending for Devs.

Spoiler

I had a lot 'bubbling' in my thoughts after watching it - but I'm probably going to watch it again to think things over. not just about the show, but basically with where we're at when it comes to modern technology. I mean, that is the goal - to be able to hack time, & fuck with it - to hold it in our hands & control it. the one force that cannot be harnessed.

in Westworld, they literally highlighted this in the last episode - the "God" machine. it's almost like, but a lesser version than what they were working on in Devs/Deus.

I still have a lot of questions, but I'll come back around after a rewatch.

also, in the X-Men comics, they have something very similar going on right now - Cerebro, with the power of Professor X essentially 'downloads' a mutant's history constantly - if he/she were to die, they've developed a system where a select group of mutants who have special powers can perform a "rebirth" of the deceased, where after Cerebro then migrates their "life data" into the bodies so they wouldn't miss a beat. the Devs/Deus system works differently, but did the same for Lily & Forrest except they're stuck in the system. just like in Black Mirror's San Junipero episode (& like the Matrix. living in a sim).

I'm satisfied with the ending, meaning I'm happy it wasn't a terrible or stupid ending. I want to see what would have happened if Stewart didn't do shit, & Lily & Forrest both lived on.

I intend to go back to that. I was watching Vikings first and tried that show but too much Vikings at once.

There is a new season of Fauda on netflix, awesome show. about an Israeli anti terrorist unit. People who are in these kinda shows should really look into it.

I watched Devs this weekend. It was decent. I was expecting to be blown away from reading reviews from other sites, but it was okay. Interesting enough that I finished the whole season. Seems like it can just be a one and done series IMO.

Anyone watch “Future Man” on Hulu? I binged the first season over these last few days and it’s pretty damn funny. It’s sci-fi comedy and is also pretty brutal. I recommend if you’re looking for something that’s easy to watch and entertaining.

Man The Last Kingdom is the most underrated show thats currently airing. Its so fucking good yet its never in TOP TV charts and most people don't know what it is.

Its perfect, action pacted, no lenghts, funny, somewhat historically accurate, great characters, etc

I think most people know of it now. Could be wrong but I see people talk about it more and more.

Apart from GoT I haven''t managed to stick with anything Momoa's done TV wise, as much as I've tried to.

Stargate atlantis...

Had no issue with his performance or the red head gal bartender; they were carrying the show.

My litmus test: I’m watching at night while drinking vodka & bored to death, time to move on.

Godless, Last Kingdom, and Kingdom were pretty good (just finished these respectively).

Godless was done pretty well. That main actor us turning into a good one imo. I've seen him in a few things and I think I he can be a real star if he gets the right role soon.

True.
Entire cast did well. I think the director & cast prolly put together a great atmosphere/energy to feed/build off each other; Series was well done.

Yeah I dont even like westerns but that was well made for sure. I didnt like the sherriff's sister but whatever I get her role.

Great show. Terrific cast.

I thought O’Connell’s and Dockery’s characters were particularly likable and well done. It was a convincing dynamic between them too where they clearly cared for one another but a lot of it was unspoken and conveyed subtly.

Daniels, Scoot, Weaver, dude who played Whitey, pretty much all of the supporting cast like Dockery’s son and mother in law all did a really solid job too.
