Patient #48273 Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 I watched the first season last year when it came out. I agree that it's decent, but not great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Backing Track Posted March 15, 2022 Report Share Posted March 15, 2022 I kind of like that it's alright. I can have an easy watch and not care if a miss a minute or two to go step away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such a hilariously crazy show that manages to skewer Southern evangelicals without being completely smug about it. I just watched the new episodes of season 2. I love everything Danny McBride does. I finished this a couple weeks back. I loved it so much and can't wait for season 3! Danny McBride is the best. It was especially funny as a religious person who went to a religious university and spent two years as a missionary. This show definitely felt like a big step up in quality from McBride's other shows. Not that I didn't like those, because I did, but this just felt a lot better somehow. Really good show! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad that you liked it!! Yeah, I feel that each one of his characters is more evolved than the last and The Righteous Gemstones is some of Danny McBride's best writing yet. He also manages to mesh super cartoonish elements with a very grounded sensibility. It seems like it couldn't possibly work, and yet the storytelling is top notch. Judy Gemstone is so unhinged and I have absolutely no chance but to love her haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghent Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 Started watching Winning Time. I'm weirdly obsessed, but I'm not sure whether a non-NBA fan would be interested. It's campy as fuck though, so if you're into that kind of vibe there may be some appeal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisa Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 Kinda wish Better Call Saul did recaps because last night I spent a lot of those first two episodes trying to remember what went on in season 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even a 2-minute recap at the beginning would have been enough to jog people's memories for the most important things, I think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I usually have trouble with all the Cartel stuff, but this time it was actually the Sandpiper storyline and the thing with Howard that I couldn't remember at all and I spent the whole time wondering why Kim and Jimmy were going after Howard. I had to google it to find out they want to get Jimmy's retirement home settlement money. I was also shocked to see how absolutely ruthless Kim has become, I didn't expect that. She remains maybe one of my favourite characters of any TV show ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it took me forever to remember who Kevin Wachtell was... I knew I recognized him, but I couldn't remember who he was or why he had an issue with Jimmy. But yeah, the stuff with Lalo/the cartel came back pretty quickly even though I don't really care about it. And yeah, Kim's character development has been so interesting. I'm really curious to see what happens to her. Also, I loved seeing the Kettlemans again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Backing Track Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 I still can't get into BCS. Driving me crazy. BB is still my favorite show of all time but Lost ended up close to it (not quite as perfect start to finish). I want to like BCS like I know I will, it's just so fucking slow to start.

Patient #48273 Posted April 20, 2022 Report Share Posted April 20, 2022 I really liked the first season. I just enjoyed seeing Jimmy trying to make ends meet as a (relatively) honest lawyer. And as much as I love Breaking Bad, I don't care that much about the cartel stuff or Mike's backstory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel Ike a lot of my favorite shows do it which makes it even worse when I get to a show without recaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
