I'm sure I'll check it out years after it's relevant lol.

We tried on S1 of SUCCESSION and lasted 3 episodes. We just could not get into it. I'm told it takes off around episode 5 but we just couldn't make it. We'll probably try again.

[BillyG]

I would try again. Those first 3 episodes are quite honestly kind of like "why do I want to listen to rich fucks cry?" but once Logan is back on the scene from his medical scare the show ramps up and turns into what it really is. I wouldn't buy into the dramatic selling much, shit is hilarious. It's a genius comedy, on par with Veep/In The Loop.

re: Midnight Mass

We finished episode 3 last night and

  Spoiler: spoilers 

were we supposed to be all like OH SHIT THE OLD GUY IS THE YOUNG GUY?

because LOL. the minute that Henry from ET and his wife showed up with that terrible makeup in the first episode it was like

  Spoiler: spoilers 

oh we're gonna see them deage with whatever creepy shit is going to happen in this

.

Is this going to shit the bed?

[BillyG]

Naw, it's pretty good. I was genuinely surprised by what was happening. Not expected.

[Abraham Smashington]

Then we shall continue on.

[Matt]

We guessed that twist as well. It did not diminish the experience.

[Abraham Smashington]

ah good to know. Cause with his track record with me at least, I wasn't sure if I should continue this.

Finally catching up on the last few Chucky episodes and I fucking love this show a whole bunch. Probably the best thing to happen to Child's Play since Bride of Chucky honestly.

Holy shit this show is so much fucking fun. Seeing Brad Dourif's daughter as

a younger Brad Dourif with his voice overdubbed

was fucking hilarious and amazing. And now having

Andy and Kyle showing up as Chucky hunters

is great. Having a blast with this series.

Finished Dopesick. Since it's based on real life it doesn't end with a nice bow but overall this was fucking great. Michael Keaton was AHMAZING in this. Highly recommended now that it's all over and you can binge it.

[Matt]

did you finish MIDNIGHT MASS yet?

[Abraham Smashington]

nope. Shit is so boring I can only do an episode a day if I'm lucky. Ep 4 was a fucking SLOG until the end. Like shit man, get some fucking therapy Mike Flanagan.

[Abraham Smashington]

three episodes into Invasion. I still don't know if I Iike it or not. I feel like if I stick with it I'll be surprised but it's the slowest of burns. SLOWEST OF BURNS.

Ok, so I'm still sticking with this and ep 4 finally brought some shit to the table. Fully on board again. Still have ZERO idea where this is going to go but I'll be there for the ride.

A friend told me I needed to check out The Great on Hulu. I’ve watched three episodes and I really couldn’t care less. A) I’ve never really given a rat’s ass about the Russian aristocracy and B) it’s like they’re just seeing how many times they can say fuck in each episode. I’m ok with letting this one go. Picked up the Stanley Tucci travel show on HBO and I’m much more impressed and interested by this than I was The Great.

Lesley loves The Great. She's pumped for the new season.
