What are you watching now?

We are watching “Saving Private Ryan”. Saw it as a theatrical release. Haven’t been able to watch it again until tonight. Sobering.

Have been drawn to the Israeli actor, Lior Raz.

He stars as 'Doron Kavillio' in a 4 season series called FAUDA.  He also fills the screen in HIT & RUN.  Both are currently on Netflix.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4565380/

"Fauda" (Arabic for 'Chaos') depicts the two-sided story of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Doron, a commander of undercover Israeli unit, the Israeli Special Forces, operating inside Palestinian territories, and his team, are hunting down Hamas terrorist Abu-Ahmed.

On the other side of the fence, the life of Abu-Ahmed and his family, who has thus far murdered 143 Israelis, will never accept the State of Israel, and will continue Jihad for as long as it takes.

You’ve just convinced me! We are in the throws of a spring snowstorm. I needed something to watch.

That's a good version of James Herriott's book.

I expected the movie to be more comedic, it was funny, but I got misty eyed more than a half dozen times. Just now on the last episode. One I will rewatch and save to disk. 

Bonus hint.... Season 2 was 6 episodes long.... but you can find the Christmas Special on YouTube for free here....

I can certainly recommend the books - In the GOAT category... In fact, I think I will dig them out and have another go.

I am now binge-watching all the Law and Order series. Most had already been airing for a year or more before I discovered them,so what I am doing now with each series is starting with Season 1,Episode 1,and working my way forward until I start seeing episodes I have seen before,and then switching to another one.

Some seriously good entertainment here is you like crime series.

Kept me busy for over a month!

I agree.  100%.  Next season will be interesting - war is coming.

[catfish1957]

Re-watching entire first 5 seasons of Better Call Saul, in prep of the 1st half of the final season (April 18 debut).

AMC teamed up with CNBC to do an excellent "American Greed" rendition of the series thus far.  (Semi-spoiler alert)

My favorite legal series. This and Columbo.

Sadly the current season is starting off very woke

Sorry to hear that. If it keeps up,it will be the death of the series.

[DCPatriot]

Am enjoying the hell out of SECRET CITY, starring Anna Torv (Mindhunters).

It is set in Australia and the filming is spectacular...the dialogue crisp...the plot has as many turns as Watkins Glen.

The geopolitical tones right now are also present in this script which also makes it compelling.

And Anna Torv is magnificent as usual.  Give it a whirl!! 

                

WARNING:  It does have the Netflix obligatory transsexual character, but it somehow doesn't come across as "gratuitous", IMO.

A co-star in Season 2 is a composite of Suzanne Pleshette and Jessica Walter.  "Perky but more than a bit unpredictable/crazy"

Has anyone binged or watched “Manifest” on Netflix?

Or “Russian Doll”?

I did watch "Manifest", about a plane that lands decades after it took off on a 'normal' 2 hour flight.

It did hold my interest but IIRC, it suddenly ended as if an alarm went off and the studio was going to blow up.

I think any series streamed needs a warning at episide 1 explaining that all series plot lines will be unresolved due premature cancellation.  Will save a lot of viewers grief later.

Last few days I've been catching up on Bosch, the series on Prime.  Pretty good show IMHO.

I watched and enjoyed Harry Bosch a few years ago. NOT your typical cop show.

Netflix bought it and will be making a season 4. That’s my understanding.

EXCELLENT series,as is any western with Elliott in it.

MUCH better than that "western" soap opera titled "Yellow Stone".

That's the way Blacklist ended. It didn't really 'end' in that sense. It just suddenly stopped. And that was it.
