Doohicksie Posted February 11, 2020 Report Posted February 11, 2020 1 hour ago, French Collection said: I enjoyed The Kominsky Method, I’m not as old as Michael Douglas but I like the “old guy” comedy. Same here. What I like about the show is that these guys are in the downslide of their lives, but are working through it, through the pain of loss, the realization that they were less than perfect parents, and still they live their lives and have a laugh or two. The depiction of the grieving process is really pretty spot on- it's not just a day or two. It's weeks, months, maybe more. And when you're feeling better about things something reminds you of your lost loved one and it all rushes back (like the dress). The main characters are flawed but somehow live with themselves, just like all of us. 1 Quote
In The Buff Posted February 13, 2020 Report Posted February 13, 2020 I just finished watching this new documentary that came out called The Russian Five https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8006926 Its about the 1990's Detroit Red Wings & the whole impact of bringing over Federov, Konstantinov, Larinov, Koslov & Fetisov that they had on that franchise & on the NHL as a whole. It was really well done & even though i kinda hated Detroit when i was a kid, it gave me a new perspective on that team & their success & i thought i'd share it here in case any of you would be interested in checking it out. You can probably find it on Netflix or if you can't i can give you a weblink to stream it from my computer if you want. I also have a massive library of tv series & movies. Close to 3,000 titles hand picked in my collection. Heres a list in case anyone is interested. https://justpaste.it/6kyqf If theres something on that list you wanna watch, just let me know & i can give you a link to stream it from my pc as well. 1 Quote

Thanks for the streaming offer too! Yeah it was, im glad i took a chance & watched it. In the early part of the documentary, i was struck by a comment their GM Jim Devellano said a few years into their rebuild about how he was "nervous" that they hadn't improved as much as they had hoped. It made me think of Jbot & how here we are in the same situation. I bet or i would at least hope that Jbot is feeling nervous as well. It took Detroit 6-7 years after drafting Yzerman (our Eichel) before they were able to get Federov & start putting an outstanding team together. Gave me a little hope that the years we've wasted with Jack could still be salvaged. All we need now is to draft Federov haha. Quote
Indabuff Posted February 20, 2020 Report Posted February 20, 2020 Anyone watch Buffaloed? Thinking about renting it on MOD. Quote

I just cannot tolerate laughtracks. Quote
inkman Posted March 5, 2020 Report Posted March 5, 2020 I had no plans on doing so but I ended up on Lil Dicky's show Dave. I don't know if I love it or hate it but I can't stop watching. Quote

Indiana Jones 5 likely to be pushed back again. Original plan had it debuting in 2019. Ford can only play Indy for so long.... Quote
gilbert11 Posted March 9, 2020 Report Posted March 9, 2020 I’ve been watching Avenue5 on HBO. I think it’s hilarious. They even had a funny Buffalo reference in a recent episode. A woman was called to the White House. They show her getting into a cab. The female cabbie says “Have you been to Buffalo before? It’s changed a lot since they moved the White House here.” Quote

Stoner Posted March 11, 2020 Report Posted March 11, 2020 The "re-imagining" of The War of the Worlds on Epix is pretty good. Quote

GASabresIUFAN Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 3/12/2020 - The day the World stopped. I friend asked me today what he was going to watch now that all sports have been cancelled. I responded how about reading a book. He said that will get old quick. So I made a couple of suggestions. On Acorn TV - 800 Words has been a fun show, as have the Brit mysteries. On Netflix - I've been watching The Flash and some of the old DC superhero shows. On Amazon - my guess is I'll eventually get into he Jack Ryan and Harry Bosch shows. Also I enjoy the Grand Tour. So what are you binge watching? Quote
Broken Ankles Posted March 13, 2020 Report Posted March 13, 2020 Has anyone seen McMillions on HBO? As far as documentaries go this could have been done a lot better and edited down to about two hours, but the story is fascinating and the characters involved are engaging. It’s all about one guy who ran security for the Marketing company McDonalds used for Monopoly game in the 90’s, and how he was able to steal all the winning pieces ($100k to $1,000,000) and distribute to a network of friends and family.

FogBat Posted March 16, 2020 Report Posted March 16, 2020 I used to love watching Last Man Standing. Then I got turned off by "Mike Baxter's" obnoxiousness. I can see why people complain about the odious sounding board that the entertainment industry has become on both sides - with or without the politics/virtue signaling.
