Tokyo Vice on HBO Max is pretty good.

Watching the new Kids in the Hall on Amazon Prime, it's been pretty great so far

Me too. From first episode, new useful phrase: "acoustically aggressive".

My Brilliant Friend on HBO. Not as good as the book, but amazing.

I watched the first ep some year ago. There was a part where the children were throwing stones or something and the voice track faded out and there was only music, things like that I think are kinda lame. Otherwise it looked promising.

I understand your aversion to that completely. Have you read the books? There is a reason why they
might do that with Lila specifically, but I'm sure the concept is very difficult to put to film. I'll know more after S1-E4.

Yes! Read them all over the course of one summer, and I am not at all a novel reader in general. Riveting stuff.

I know there aren't many Tom Waits fans on this board, but this weekend I was shocked to see his 1987 concert movie Big Time on Netflix. It's still wildly uneven, but I still enjoyed about a third of it.

Well...Barry and Better Call Saul have both completely lost my interest after the latest handful of episodes. After being two of the best shows on TV. I'm sure it's me, not them.

Been watching the new Kids In the Hall episodes. It’s mostly been low-grade chuckles, but the doodoo skit on episode 5 just cracked my shit up.
