King of the Hill reboot is pretty solid. Took them an episode or two to get all the "everything is so woke now" observations out of the way, then it pretty much picks up where the old show left off (except everyone is 7? years older)

I like though how Hank is like republican 1.0 and can't deal with the more Qanon styled platform of some of the people around him. I also like how they decided weird little Bobby would grow up and just stumble into two willing beds a week but cap it at one cause he's still holding out for his childhood crush.

Agreed. First episode is a little flat, but it moves past that quickly.

I got weirdly emotional watching episode nine. Kinda heavy.

Very glad they seemed to give every character further depth (except Peggy, who felt a little off this season). Always loved that show, and this was a really nice suprise to see that it wasn't a total abortion with the new episodes.

The last episode ends with them helping out John Redcorn, followed by a dedication to Jonathan Joss. Kick to the stomach..

Just gotta check in and say that I had all the subscriptions. And I decided to remove D+ and N and I decided to stick it out with HBO. For the best.

I know it's silly, but I'm really looking forward to a new Peacemaker, just for the stupid banality of it.

I watched Baby Girl the other day and it was really sloppy and not the way I would "punish" my MILF, so I could not relate. *In Forrest MacNeil's voice* I give it two stars!

Fisk, Season Three. When you ask lawyers if there are any TV shows about lawyers that they consider realistic, this is the answer you'll get.

Been wanting to check it out.

For more flashback Sci Fi, check out the new Predator: Killer of Killers on Hulu. The animation is awesome, but it's also a good predator movie!

Way into it. A few little beats are hokey, but they absolutely NAIL the vibe of the first two films.

"Mob Rules" drop in the first episode was sick as fuck, too.

"Stinkfist" in the second one, which lead me to admit to my wife that I really love Tool, and I think she was maybe disgusted.
