Burned through the second season of The Travelers on Netflix. Very nicely done. Kinda like Person Of Interest does time travel.

I'm binge watching the first 2 seasons of "The Expanse".

@Free Vulcan

Thanks! That sounds interesting to me. I kinda miss Person of Interest even though "John" had all the charisma of a wooden "John" (outhouse). IMHO the showed succeeded despite him.

Going thru a show on Netflix called Ash v. Evil Dead. Stupid, cheesy, campy, raunchy, gorey, slapstick and at times downright moronic, yet I like it. Best I can describe it is a retro-80's horror comedy.

Bruce Campbell plays that type really well.

I just watched Bubba-Ho-Tep yesterday on Pluto TV.

BTW "Stan against Evil" is also good. It stars John McGinley.

@Freya I watched the first episode of that and could not get into it, does it get better after the first one or two?

I thought so. It was a bit clunky at first, but got better.

I love some of his one-liners. A few of them had me falling out of my chair.

Bruce Campbell also had a cameo as Ronald Reagan in the second season of Fargo.

Binge watching Star Trek Discovery today.

I like the different darker wartime direction of the show.

I like the darker version of Mudd as well. He was a joke on the original series.

It was purely by chance that I watched because I signed up for my free month of CBS All Access that came with my Firestick. I watched the first 9 episodes and see there is a new episode tomorrow.

I also watch The Gunslinger and I want my money back.

What we are seeing with Discovery is that the Federation is not that well liked. There are Vulcans who hate it and of course humans don't like it. Basically the Federation is going through some growing pains.

Captain Gabriel comes across as a ruthless lowlife at first but as the show progresses you realize his ambition isn't blind and eventually he and Stamets become closer because Stamets realizes that there is more to Gabriel

Right now I'm watching "Approaching the unknown" on Pluto TV. Big stars (Mark Strong) but the movie doesn't appear to have drawn much attention.

Its a solo one way trip to mars with the captain struggling with being alone.

Let me know how it goes.

I finished watching Killjoys. It is ok, not the greatest, but it is ok..
