Maybe it's just me, but I would have a hard time watching Taboo episodes back-to-back. Maybe one a day would work. For me the show just took a lot of concentration, and often I still was left wondering WTF I just watched.

Not too much longer now until Lois Lane saves the show.

Lois (Eric Durance) began appearing in season 4.

But she becomes a bigger and bigger part of the show, especially as Smallville got serious putting Lois and Clark together. Lois started taking away screen time from Chloe and Lois began driving much of the plot each week.

It's just about the only thing that saved the last few seasons of Smallville for me.

Two eps left in Iron Fist... and I'm liking it a whole lot better than Luke Cage.

No Tomorrow Season 1

Really fun show, hope it miraculously gets a 2nd season though there's a better chance that an asteroid slams into Earth sometime soon. Thankfully, it ended in a satisfying enough way.

I liked the show as well but wasn't happy how it ended. It looked like they were attempting to reboot the show's premise in that last episode.

My son and I watched all six eps of Discovery's "Pacific Warriors" over the past few days. We liked it for the most part.

I have flown throw the first seven eps of FX's "Legion" over the past past week. What a fantastic trip. Love it.

Longmire.

Had trouble with some logical aspects while watching the first 3 episodes in 2012. Still had trouble but managed to plow through it.

Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events on Netflix. Pretty fun show.

I started over last summer to watch with my kids. We are a handful of episodes into season 8 but are taking a break for Lost. It gets a huge boost with Lois as a regular and without any spoilers, the show takes a big upswing when they dropped a couple of longtime regulars.

Rewatching has been a blast. The casting director just nailed it on this show. The warts it had back then (Lana, meteor freak of the week, all of season 4) are still there and are still dreadful. I never bought into the "premiers and finales carry the show" that everyone claimed. They are clearly the highlight, but the show as a whole is very entertaining.

I am now caught up with Supergirl season two. I liked both seasons enough to start the Flash tonight.

Michael Corvin 03-25-17 01:24 PM

Re: Last Show You Binged?
 
Huh? You're doing it wrong. Supergirl is all kinds of average. Entertaining but mostly filler on the watchlist. It has been improving though with the alien plots this season. The CW after school special love stories drag it down, a LOT.

Flash is fun and awesome plain and simple.

Off from work today so I got a lot of TV and movie watching.

Today I binged watched the last 6 episodes of Veep's 5th season. I got backed up when it originally aired last Spring, but planned to finish it since I have HBO/HBO Go.

Now I'm ready for the 6th season, which airs in a few weeks. If you follow the show, I'm really curious how it's going to work now that Selina is

Spoiler:

no longer the POTUS as well as the Veep.

For some reason I skipped Veep's fifth season. I need to binge it sometime soon. Hopefully go through it all on a rainy weekend day.

Just finished Patriot on Amazon - loved it.

I am working on viewing The Leftovers to catch up and watch season 3 live, but it's a slog right now (just started on third episode).

Enjoyed Love (Netflix).
Not sure what to start next. Fargo Season 2 or go back and figure out where I stopped on Better Call Saul.

Watched the first couple of episodes of Roadies last night. I just happened to stumble upon it. I had no idea Cameron Crowe was working on a tv show, but so far :up: :up: It's damn good. It feels like a spiritual successor to Almost Famous.

I assume it was a last minute thing when they heard they weren't getting a back order. Leave it open to as many plot directions as possible, or just end it with everyone being where they should be.

On that note, it actually seems like a better fit for Netflix than CW as well. Very bingeable show.

Flash season one.

Hap and Leonard season 1. Unexpectedly great.

I watched the first season of Love Sick formerly known as Scrotal Recall on Netflix. It has an odd premise, a guy gets a STD and contacts/revisits all the women that he had sex with. It's a really good show though with a lot of heart.

13 Reasons Why - Netflix. Had to take a break after watching 1 ep yesterday and 4 today, because the show is good but heavy as lead. I mean that as a compliment, because it forces you to pay attention and you would be lost if you watch while goofing on a tablet, or whatever. I did not read the book so this is a blind watch for me.
