Like in the last few months......I recently finished The Umbrella Academy, Ozark, In the Dark, Locke and Key, You, and The Outer Banks. All were fabulous.
You?
You?
What TV shows have you recently watched?

Just finished Umbrella Academy season 2. It is a good show. I like the actor that plays Luthor. He played Billy Bones in "Black Sails," which is in my top 5 TV shows of all time, and I've liked him ever since.
Dark, a German science fiction show about time travel and all that it implies, is superb. I had to switch from subtitles to audio overdub, though, as my eyes are just not what they used to be.
I watched all the Star Wars movies, in order, including the extended universe stuff. So I stuck "Rogue 1" in between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope, and The Mandalorian in between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. The prequels are still terrible, but Sith is an OK movie if you can look past its glaring flaws, most of which are Hayden Christensen related. You can completely skip Phantom Menace and Clone Wars, and lose absolutely nothing from the story.
"Happy!" and "The Boys" are two awesome shows if you are into kinda disturbing weirdness. And I am. See also "Preacher." And Ruth Negga makes me feel funny.
I watched "The Witcher." I have no idea what is going on there, but I'm a fan of Henry Cavill ever since he did The Tudors (also worth watching) so I guess I liked it.
The animated series "Undone" is nothing short of brilliant. Also top 5 all time for me.
"Love Death and Robots" has some great moments in it, as well as two stories penned by John Scalzi, one of my favorite popcorn authors.
"Hanna" is a pretty good television transition from a really good, if under-seen film of the same name. That was an early Saoirse Ronan film, and I really dig her.
"Into the Badlands" is plane old fashioned Kung Fu action ridiculousness. Great show.
The second season of "Homecoming" was a worthy followup to a really good first season. A show that intelligently deals with veterans issues without really talking about it is always OK with me.
Everyone should watch "Chernobyl." Object lessons in vanity that we apparently still haven't learned.
I've got a reading list about that long, too.

Umbrella Academy for sure.
I like the comic book inspired content. And I kind of like the "loser heroes" which I guess is why I like Umbrella Academy so much. Along those lines, I also like Doom Patrol on HBO.
Stargirl has been way too good for a CW type show. Yes, it's got that CW sappiness to it. But characters die real deaths, sometimes quite violently. I'm looking forward to Season 2.
Lucifer is back on Netflix. I just watched episode 1 of the new season last night and TBH I was underwhelmed. This was never one of the great shows and I was never really able to binge on it. Sorry, don't hate me, but this is kind of a meh show and I don't get the cult appeal.

Oh I can imagine! There has been sooooo much already!I actually didn't like Penny at first. His personality was a little too abrasive for me. Same goes for Alice, but they all definitely grew on me lol. Hope you enjoy the rest of the seasons because the character/plot development in this show is crazy
