TV Streaming series to talk about.

Anyone watching the Daredevil series? Really liked it on Netflix...know they went through some showrunning pains in the reboot, but pretty good so far. D'Onofrio as Kingpin just kills.

I really liked the Netflix series, and have seen the first two episodes of the reboot. Very promising. D’Onofrio is great. I think Charlie Cox is very good as DD as well.

I have long thought that the Daredevil series is the best thing done with a Marvel property. I am really enjoying the reboot. The casting from the main characters to the minor supporting characters has been top-notch in my book.
 
Adolescence, whooooweee that’s a rough one. Intense story, great acting, super high quality production, and a very important societal SOS. Every parent should be forced to watch this as well as The Social Dilemma (both on netflix).

Each episode (4 total) was shot in a choreographed one-hour long single take, no cutting or splicing. Any mistakes by cast or crew and they had to start all over. They shot several versions of each episode and took the best one of each. Maybe a gimmick, but a very cool one, and it totally added to the propulsive feel of the story.

Excellent stuff, better than any series or short series I’ve seen in a long while.

Been watching Lioness. This first season starts dragging about midway through.
 
I am really enjoying Slow Horses on Apple TV - only 4 episodes in. It has the hallmarks of some of the great old school spy thrillers and Gary Oldman is simply fantastic in his role.

I couldn't make it through the first episode.

I just finished The Agency and that is a good series

The last episode was good. Just seemed like the middle was very slow and took forever to get there, and then the ending was abrupt.

I think I’m the only person here who doesn’t love Slow Horses.

The gear and much of the tactical choreography is pretty good. The dialogue, and the development of the female characters is fairly mediocre. I didn't know all female Delta assets were Latinas lol.

Started season 2 last night. The way season 1 ended so abruptly I didn't realize the last episode was the last episode until the first one for season 2 started playing. And of course Taylor Sheridan had to put himself in it.

The Pitt is awesome. My favorite show at the moment

Watched the finale the other night live, after having to catch up 2 shows an evening. This is the most powerful single season show since Chernobyl. Not on quite that level in terms of a narrative focus and direction, but the intensity matches the latter masterpiece. The pace is also beyond comparison to anything else. Brilliant acting and sustained great writing.

You will never watch any kind of medical or hospital TV show again, and see those others as anything more than kids' cartoons.

I finished it last night and was equally impressed. As much love as Severance gets and deserves, The Pitt is on the same level in its genre.

And Season 2 is coming. But that is a lot to follow.

Great show. In a trailer and an interview Noah Wyle said that their goal was to be as accurate and factual as possible.

My daughter, who is a nurse, has loved it for that fact.
