    I loved the first season, and I think the second season is just as good if not better. The cast is just so fantastic and perfect, and they keep finding fun ways to extend the premise. I really hope we get another season.

  • Lost in Space

    I watched the first episode of Netflix’s new Lost in Space series, and gotta say I was really impressed. That first episode feels like a movie more than a TV series (in terms of production values), and it sets things up quite nicely for what’s to follow (i.e. I really want to know where this…

    This has been described as Freaks & Geeks but set in the 90s, and that’s actually not a bad description. I’m 5-6 episodes in, and having a really good time watching it. The kids are great, the story is fun, and the soundtrack is, well, it’s pretty much all the stuff that I was listening…

  • Fred Armisen: Standup for Drummers

    I quite enjoyed this standup special on Netflix. The gimmick is that the audience is entirely composed of drummers, and a lot of the material is drumming-related. I generally like Fred Armisen, always enjoyed him on SNL, and I really like him here. All of the jokes aren’t gold, but he just has a fun…

    I’ve heard nothing but good things about this series since it started, and for some reason just never got around to watching it. It’s on Netflix now (3 seasons), and so I started watching it the other day, and love it. I’m 7-8 episodes into the first season, and so still have lots to watch,…

  • Altered Carbon

    I’ve only watched the first episode so far, but from what I’ve seen, I think I’m going to enjoy this ride. First off, I crave cyberpunk-set stories, and so just that fact alone was enough to draw me in, but it also looks like they’ve got the look/visuals down. Hard to tell how good the…

  • The X-Files (Season 11)

    I’m having so much fun watching this latest (and probably last) season of The X-Files, because it’s really having a lot of fun with itself, to a point where it almost feels like a trashy parody of itself (especially this week’s 4th episode, which was fantastic). With last year’s return of the series, I can’t…

  • The End of the Fucking World

    I loved this series so damn much, and I think it’s easy to say that it’s now one of my favorite shows. Deliciously dark and funny, it zooms by (a short 8-episode season, with each episode about half an hour), and I was almost sad when it ended (although I liked how it ended). Can’t…

    I knew nothing about this series, an Amazon Original — and apparently the pilot was first released back in 2015, and then the rest of the season was released now — but I noticed a few raves for it on my Twitter timeline and so decided to check it out, and I’m glad I did.…

  • Shameless (Season 7)

    It continually surprises me just how much I continue to enjoy this show, 7 seasons in. They recently added this 7th season to Netflix, and I’m just over halfway watching it, and again, it’s just good fun. I keep thinking that they’ll have nowhere else interesting to go with these characters, and yet each new…
