such a good show!!
What did you think about High Potential? I thought it was fine, and I've heard it got a second season, but I'm not sure if I'll tune in.
The main character never forgets anything, unless they sometimes do. The missing husband plot is weird because what they've uncovered so far seems like something the main character would have already discovered. She doesn't give the vibe of someone who just asks the police a few times and then stops.
The week to week plots are sometimes a bit over the top, the printer for example.
I dunno. It's a fine show, I hope it improves.
Also since it's Kaitlin Olsen, The Mick was excellent.
I'm only three episodes into High Potential, but it's uneven I would say - the second episode made me not want to watch another, it was low-quality CW type stuff. The show feels trope-ish. I doubt a second season would be better, it is already so formulaic, I would guess they would farm out more and more of the talent to reduce costs and streamline production.
It was just something to watch after finishing s02 of Silo, which was another show that made me want to quit early on, but I was glad I stuck it out - so I guess I'm contemplating the value of giving shows second chances.
Severance and White Lotus
how is the new season of White Lotus? I swore after s02 that I wouldn't watch it anymore, it's just so toxic ...
still slice of life anime. I finished off ones that only have one season but I think its going to stop today and I still have a lot of over the moon, fruits basket, and rent a girlfreiend. then there are like three others that are basically my last to try and watch. once it stops will be watching invincible and reacher.
Just finished season 2 of Dark
It's excellent. I love they don't care about the usual time-travel paradox, but embrace it
Why can't I be my own grandfather after all?
Dark is nuts, omg
One of the best shows, I loved Dark.
Finished physical, rewatching handmaids tale and also freaks and geeks
Shameless.
mad at fiona right now
She so dumb! Fiona ruins everything!
Almost done with Twin Peaks: The Return – So good that I don't want it to end
Yellowjackets
Harley Quinn
Common Side Effects has been fun so far.
Reacher Series 3, of course. The latest series of Unforgotten.
Severance. Invincible. Mad Men. Why women kill. Shin Chan.
Been watching Elementary, the Sherlock show. Pretty good, though silly at times. Just nice when I can't be bothered to watch something with full attention during the week.
Working on Sunny on Apple TV. It's weird, but good
The Pitt is really good. The hour-by-hour concept from 24, applied to an emergency room at a hospital
Last week and THIS WEEKS episodes have been my favorites. I hope this show runs (with the same quality) for a long while.
Fifth season of Fargo. It's still soo good!
I'm in Jakarta atm and there's a channel called Indosiar that has some of the most ridiculous soup opera slop I've ever seen. Kisah Nyata is the name of the one I saw. I hope I can find an English subbed copy of it.
Been rewatching Attack on Titan
Did the Final Finaly Final Season ever come out?
Yes, it's awesome
Solo Leveling, Severance, Yellow Jackets
Motherland.
Really funny. But hasn't got the characters for repeat viewing of other graham Linehan or Sharon Horgan productions. I'm glad to see graham mentioned in credits.less and less as I progress.
Wayward Pines.
Blade Runner: Black Lotus, love some cyberpunk in these trying times
Smile 2. All three seasons of Fire Country.
