Speaking of six episodes, I just watched a Netflix series, The Eternaut. It looked okay, so I dove in.
Don't be like me; once I start something, I have to keep watching to see how it ends. The Eternaut was only okay, but I couldn't look away.
This could've gone in the Things I Hate thread, because I hate a series that strings you along only to find out they don't resolve anything in one season, and 1) by the time Season 2 shows up, I won't remember what Season 1 was about, or 2) the story isn't strong enough to warrant wasting time on a second season.
I watched it also, Peter. It kept my interest

Watching Denny Tedesco's Immediate Family about a group of session musicians in the 70s, in the same vein as The Wrecking Crew by Denny about a group of session musicians in the 60s.

I've been watching Mobland with the Wife. Very entertaining, but you have to set the time aside to give it your full attention, not something you can put on in the background and enjoy.

Watching The Greatest Beer Run Ever on Apple+ before my free trial expires. A friend sold some old church keys to the production company so they had authentic openers from the era lol

Just watched the live-action Avatar: The Last Airbender on Netflix. They really captured the spirit of the cartoon. It's worth watching even if you didn't see the latter.

Accountant 2 …meh…it was just ok. I couldn’t turn my brain off that the acting of Ben Afleck character mannerisms were not identical between the two movies.
This is a documentary about the creators of South Park buying an iconic Colorado restaurant that went bankrupt during Covid.
It looks like it's worth a watch, even if, like me, you're not a huge South Park fan.
The restaurant is more of an amusement building that featured caves, cliff diving, a man in a gorilla suit, it looks wild, and it was featured in a South Park episode.

We went to the theater and watched F-1 yesterday. We both liked it, Faye said "I didn't know they worked as teams, I thought they just went round and round as fast as they could." She was also happy at no blatant nudity or F-bombs. I'm amazed by the technical wizardry that goes along with developing the cars etc.
At any rate, if you're into go-fast stuff, it was enjoyable.

I'm hearing positive things about Kevin Can F**k Himself on Netflix. Its a dark comedy I will give it a try later on
I don't have problems, just more work to do.
I watched the first two seasons on AMC IIRC.. Pretty funny at times.

I heard it may take me a couple of episodes to get really into it.

It might.

Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, starting out pretty good.

A good cigar and whiskey solve most problems.

Deep Cover on Prime looks interesting, a comedy, but not laugh-out-loud funny. Scratch that, I just laughed out loud at one scene.
It got good. Recommended.
Murder at the end of the world on Hulu has been good so far three episodes in at the moment.
I don't have problems, just more work to do.
Sounds like it's right up my alley.
Independence Day on Hulu

Nosferato if I spelled it correctly..on Prime as I recall
Good show.

The Lincoln Lawyer on Netflix was way better than I expected.

Seems like as good a place as any for this:

Netflix has an F-1 series I believe. My son watches it. Great inside look at the drama. Not your old Jackie Stewart days.
Sinners on HBO/MAX. A bit slow to get going bet very good. African-american horror movie. Won't divulge the plot.
