Jesus, this is a tough watch.

Great ending. Fuckinhell what an emotionally brutal show. Great acting and writing.

a new show coming out with eva longoria looking for spain.. she looks good walking and she can't find spain

trucks getting stuck

it plays on the weather channel on most of the screen

We're three episodes into The Pitt on MAX. My daughter is an ER nurse and she says it's about as accurate as one of these those is gonna get and she's been coming over when she can so we can watch it together. Noah Wyle is pretty good and they don't shy away from some gnarly shit but they also don't highlight it. Every episode is an hour of a single shift so there's not too much room for developing romances and bullshit like that. Pretty good so far!

Black Mirror Season 7. I'm watching the first episode, "Common People", right now.

Black Mirror is hit or miss, but that first episode hits, and it hits hard.

The Studio on Max is good. I assume it's been mentioned elsewhere, but it's like Robert Altman's The Player in its satirical take on the Hollywood system (Bryan Cranston's character is also named Griffin Mill, Tim Robbins' character name from the film). There are only 4 episodes so far, but it's worth following.

The Giamatti episode broke me.

The 5th episode of the season, titled "Eulogy". If it's not the single best episode of Black Mirror, it's way up there.

White Lotus season 3:

I watched the whole season in a day
I did not like it
I did not like it to a level that I am starting to actively dislike the creator
The sex scenes getting crazier every year could actually be funny in more skilled hands (see what I did there)
They should have stopped with the neurotic hotel managers after the first one

My review of this season seems a bit like complaining to your table-mates about a dish you just about finished at a semi-fancy restaurant. There might be some endorsement implied in the quantity consumed, but not if we’re honest with ourselves about what a low bar that can be, especially at a place that should know better.

But, like the shitty pizza we got for dinner, I was too tired to do anything else.
