I liked Serenity. Of course I would prefer more Firefly content, but if the broadcast execs are going to cancel it because they don't get it and market it wrong, at least it gets a well-executed send off.

Just finished Lost yesterday and I gotta say its a pretty good series. Like a lot of series that start out good, it seems sometimes like the endings are a little rushed. The boss lady was a little "lost" herself, but after a little explanation, then got the point of the message the creators were trying to send to the audience, which I believe is what happened to many when the show first aired. Gotta look at a show beyond from what it is, and think of it as a moving and changing work of art.

Now I have to finish Dexter so I can watch the new season.

Finished Season 1 of The Boys on Prime. The show's premise is what the world would look like if people with superpowers weren't actually heroes. It's brutal and raw. It's a great mix of action, drama and comedy.

Superheroes gone bad - Check
Gratuitous violence - Check
Karl Urban - Check

The show's pretty fucked up, great to watch, highly recommend.

I love that show. I have rewatched it all several times.

Little slow. But, pretty interesting. I didn't realize it was that dangerous on the reservations and spent a good minute wiki reading on it.

I watched that series from beginning to end when it originally aired. Hard to believe it started 17 yrs ago

I've been watching "evil" on Amazon prime and find it amusing. The bosch series was awesome.

Yeah. My wife is watching Evil, and I often pause to watch as I go through the room. It’s not bad at all.

Not quite the same genre, but for me it was the same story with Salem, and Jamestown. I got sucked into quite a few episodes of both, and really enjoyed them.

It was a really good show. The end is a bit confusing, but it makes you think and that's what I liked about it, you're constantly trying to solve all the hidden messages.

I watch Match Game sometimes when I'm feeling nostalgic. My Mother and I used to watch it almost every day right after I got home from school.
