I don’t think there are any slow pockets of BB. It’s just good the whole way, and the final season is the best, so you’ll always have more to look forward to as you move along.

Is this purposefully a bad take orrrrr....?

Perhaps you could call it a bit slow for the first few episodes until Tuco shows up. But the writing and directing are never bad. I've never experienced a story told the way it was, which other than Bryan Cranston, made that show what it is. And that's no disrespect to the other actors, who also killed it for the entirety of the show's existence.

Showed my daughter first episode of x files. I always forget how good that show is. It's still pretty disturbing.

Netflix shows it as TV-MA.

Discovered that Reno 911 was on Paramount Plus and been rewatching it at night. So good.

Is it in the correct aspect ratio? HBO Max cropped the 4:3 for 16:9 and it looks awful. I've never seen the full show so I was looking forward to watching it but I just couldn't do it.

I've been watching it on my laptop so not sure.

Looking fine to me.

Ted Lasso and For All Mankind are two more reasons to put up with that horrendous interface.

Ted Lasso is easily the best thing on that platform. I haven’t watched for all mankind yet.

If you are a space/NASA junkie, For All Mankind is a must. Unreal production values, great cast. Can get a touch melodramatic, but still really good. It makes me really want HBO to redo From the Earth to the Moon with the same production values/sets/etc.

It really is just a god awful interface. Worst one out there, which is saying something because Peacock and Paramount Plus or whatever the hell it’s called now are pretty awful. How the hell do you go live with that interface and then never improve it?

I remember watching these segments during the 1994 Winter Olympics and really enjoying them. The stuff with Dave's mom was great.
