Very late to the game, but I am loving Ted Lasso
Perfect timing with season 3 coming up. We’re planning a rewatch soon. I think I said in here, yes… there are a few laugh out loud moments, but by and large the show just makes me smile from start to finish.
I think that's exactly why I love it. Drama is there to keep story going, but it really is just an enjoyable show

Ted Lasso is such an easy watch. It's like Schitt's Creek that way...small, quick episodes that you can binge in like a day.

Picard is back. Haven't watched it yet, but the Next Generation cast is back for elite fan service.

“Peoples’ Court” to end after 20 seasons. I remember when I was on it (sued a guitar shop), and Ed Koch asked me if I was a devil worshipper (which didn’t make it into the airing, shocking). Harvey Levin was a tiny, tiny man in person.

I wish I could find it online, but this was the late 90s. I know it’s on a VHS tape at my parents house, but I have never been able to find it.

Gates McFadden had some serious work done. Ending credits basically had the TNG theme verbatim for extra throwbackedness.

It was decent tbh. But season 2 started off strong too.

I’m 5 episodes in and I wouldn’t continue if it wasn’t for my wife liking it. I don’t care about the characters because they’re all dadholes. I don’t care about their business because why would I? The Culkin fella is the most annoying, in character, performance, and writing. The characters who aren’t dadholes are portrayed as morons. I need something or someone to latch onto and there’s nothing for me yet.

It's on my list due to the high praise, but my wife absolutely hated the first episode and that'll likely be the extent of our viewing. Had no desire to see rich dadholes be bad at doing business.

I remember trying to watch that when it first came on...which seems like ages ago, but bailed half way through the first season. It felt like a cheap-o version of This is Us even if it wasn't. I was surprised when I saw a commercial showing it was still on and entering its final season.

Is anyone watching 1923? I've been enjoying it for the most part, but the dialogue in the last episode... oof. It belonged more on Tulsa King.

I think it’s pretty good, but typical Taylor Sheridan, way over the top. It’s like he comes up with a decent story and characters and then says, “let’s see what absolutely crazy **** I can wedge in”.

Nate's storyline is great. He's damaged because of his father (just like Jamie) and in the beginning you think Ted's going to bring out his inner hero and Tart is irredeemable. But as the show goes along we learn that Nate's so insecure that he needs constant validation whereas Jamie matures into bearable pretty boy. I love how it sets up this final season.

You can't search for common words on this board - across, what, 7 years of data x 14 users - but the girl had "You" on when I got home...sweet fancy Moses...what a horrendous show. I was doing some video scouting while it was playing, but man alive, entire episodes of inner monologue written by - I can only assume - a wooden spoon...

The main guy looks like a formal version of Jason Matzouaks (sp?0 - and if it was him, it'd have a shred of entertainment...truly, truly rubbish...I had never heard of it tonight, and even she says that it's a stupid show...so she's not completely off the reservation, but P U...I hope Alec Baldwin shoots everyone associated with this crumbum show...

That show probably would've been best served with 2 seasons, maaayyyybe the 3rd. But it feels like they're just dragging it out at this point.

A Netflix show running too long? I didn't think that was possible. :lol:
