Movies/TV worth watching (or at least discussing)

I know very late to it but finished season 1 of Slow Horses. Liked it. Worth it to continue?

Five stars highest rating. And the books are even better

Not sure which season he first appears, but Tom Hardy's character from Peaky Blinders (Alfie Solomons) may be my favorite minor TV character of all time.

Great series .I did not see that coming .

Unfortunately, I've been watching slow horses for years; even owned a few.

I concur. Great series and great books.

My son and I really enjoyed A Complete Unknown. Timothée Chalamet was phenomenal.

I saw it last Saturday. I had low expectations. Boy, was I surprised! Wonderful movie.

Final 5 episodes of Cobra Kai dropping next Friday. That series has been an unexpected pleasure.

I'll add that to my list. I finished peaky blinders I'm half way through breaking bad.
Both started off slow and built up as they went.
Unlike GOT that fired off and died at the end .The Peaky blinders movie ,The Immortal Man is in the works so I've read.
I'm really looking forward to that .I need my season 7 .
I haven't kept up with the last of us. I'd like to see that come out aswell.

I look forward to hearing how you liked Breaking Bad when done. Each season is better than the prior.

I wish I could watch Breaking Bad again for the first time. One of my all time favorite shows.

 

[plimnko]

After you finish Breaking Bad, checkout El Camino on Netflix.

 

[OldPhiKap]

And then Better Call Saul.

Same. I’ve watch it it through at least three times as various family members became interested.

 

[Skydog]

And then Better Call Saul.

Well Better Call Saul first after Breaking Bad. Followed, optionally, by the El Camino movie.

Better Call Saul was honestly my favorite of the two great series, but that is likely a minority opinion.

 

[acdevil]

Agree on El Camino - not great but not bad. Totally optional.

Better Call Saul was also great.

Vince Gilligan is a genius.

 

[JasonEvans]

It isn't great, but Captain America: Brave New World exceeded my pretty low expectations. There's too much talking and Mackie could use a dose of charisma, but it moves with pace and kept my attention throughout.

I started watching Paradise on Hulu. Its another Silo type story, but the way it gets there and the way the characters are developed are engaging.

 

[AGDukesky]

Anyone ever get into Loudermilk? I’m enjoying it as some light watching (although the general subject matter is heavy) to distract me from…uh…the news and other upsetting things

I've been watching and enjoying it also. I got sucked in when I heard Sterling K. Brown say in an interview that the plot twist at the end of the first episode would knock your sock off - or something like that.

I did not see that coming.

If it's better than breaking bad it will be a treat .Just finished breaking bad today.
BB had a few shockers in it. A few of the same actors were in the movie battleship.
I instantly recognized Giancarlo Esposito from The Mandalorian.
