For the record I did not hack Clark's account.

Tried watching episode 3 of season 2 last night, just went nowhere, did not hold me at all, starting dual screening which is never a good sign.

I feel the halo series didn’t portray the main character correctly, since the original studio of halo has abandon the franchise, now some other studios have picked it up, but have failed to portray the game the same way the original studio did.

I was actually about to watch it after k finish studying. Another series I watched recently was 11.22.63, it was recently added to Entflix and it’s very good.

Hilarious! I read Clark’s post and immediately mumbled, “this guy sounds like Alfisti now!”

Then, saw your post.

Did Halo ever return for a third season?

I would love a Horizon live action series.

It was canceled. I’m honestly thankful that it was. The show was really disappointing for me.

I can understand why. Something was missing.

It really was. Master Chief is supposed to be the coolest guy ever and they made the whole series seem like him and his team were becoming millennials.

Especially that female character.

lol it was really annoying, especially when she met Keys daughter and went, “I’ve never had a sister before” indicating that she and her had bonded. The whole show sucked.

Just finished up season one of "Ballard" a couple nights ago. I didn't like it out the gate, but it ended up being a great season. Not a bad continuation of "Bosch", but I think we liked "Bosch: Legacy" better.

That was us last night with "Countdown" on Prime as we were looking for a new show to start up. I kind of made it through episode one and told my wife "what the hell was that?" and turned off the TV. I think we may rewatch "Longmire." I started up "Shooter" last night, but my wife fell asleep maybe halfway into the first episode, so that may be a nonstarter...

Binged Run Away. Decent enough to keep my interest...just enough.

It's freaky but I like it.

I liked James Nesbitt in Jekyll but haven't liked him in anything since.

I started watching The Following on Netflix. The story line is good but what a shit show. Firstly, I can't imagine that this should go three seasons. I'm maybe half way through the first season and it is ridiculous. Makes all Law Enforcement look completely incompetent. This would never happen in real life. I'm done.

Ballard felt too much like a network show. I got two episodes in and called it quits. I expected to largely be a carbon copy of Bosch. If they stuck to that formula I think the product would be better. Loved Bosch. Glad it ended before they ruined. It's one of few series that remained season after season, no fall off.

There was absolutely the "network" vibe going on. Mixed in with pushing some ideal agendas as little "easter eggs", I really got turned off the show. That said, it did feel better on the latter half, if not third. I had to power through the first few episodes frankly.

Slow Horses on Apple TV. Having read some of the Slow Horse books, I was interested in diving in. Season 1 complete so far. Tense and funny. Gary Oldman is terrific.

We really enjoyed it, I think it gets better the more seasons you watch. And you're absolutely correct, Oldman is brilliant.

Great show. Trailers don’t do it justice. We didn’t watch it for quite a while and then had a few seasons to binge. Oldman does a great job.
