Idiots. Savages. Idiots.

It was time, though. Enjoyed the series.

Idiots is right. We really enjoyed the show.

I wish Vince Vaughn wasn't there.
I'm not a fan of his, but if I'm being honest, he's not as annoying as I'd expect him to be.
He's good in roles like this. I think he's been great this season.

With eddy on this one.

This week's Curb might have been the best this season. No Vince Vaughn @dodint, although I don't mind him in the show.

I've thought of watching Succession, as I think it would strike the same nerve that Billions does, but I've heard that every single character is awful so I've been hesitant.

I watched Billions first, then started Succession. Billions became boring to me after the first three seasons maybe. Succession isn't as formulaic, and while the characters are all pretty awful, they're also all pretty interesting. Really like it.

Anyone else watch the good lord bird on showtime? I feel like I'm the only person to watch this excellent show.

We're about half way through with 3 episodes left. Excellent so far.

I'm all in on Wheel of Time after 3 episodes. I wanted more of a D&D take that I get from the books, but I'm fine with what they are doing now. They certainly are dumping a lot of money into each episode. it seems to me that Amazon prime streaming quality isn't great, I get a lot of compression that I don't see from other streaming services while watching this.

Which is odd, considering The Expanse is available in 4K.

Wheel is 4k/HDR as well and certain shots look great, but I got a lot of compression on faces, skies and dark scenes. I honestly thought my tv was going wonky, but everything else streaming elsewhere looked fine.

This should be interesting:

They rented a plane and kept teams off of public transportation.

That's pretty awesome. I really figured we'd seen the last of the Race. Glad they had enough faith in it to go to these efforts.

Yeah, r/Peloton was going on about how it's basically a product placement vehicle for the company.

Peloton Said HBO Never Told It How Its Bike Would Be Used In "And Just Like That"

This story has been updated with a revised comment from Peloton. Spokesperson Denise Kelly originally said Peloton provided HBO with a bike for the episode. She emailed after this story was published to say she was incorrect and that HBO procured its own bike.

Finding out that DD watches Sex and the City is depressing.

I haven't watched the reboot yet but don't sleep on SatC.

I’m married.

‍♂️ Also the original show was a pretty decent watch. Movies sucked.

Netflix cancels ‘Cowboy Bebop’ less than three weeks after it premieres

Guess I won't bother watching after all.
