LONGMIRE

No excuses.  I have become addicted to NETFLIX.  Best damned bargain for $8.99 each month around.

After watching dozens of movies that I have NEVER seen among my 1,000 channels on Verizon Cable, I clicked on the PILOT episode of Longmire.  I was mesmerized.

Mesmerized to the point that I've spent the past several days catching up on Seasons 1, 2 and 3.

The star is Robert Taylor as Walter Longmire, a Wyoming sheriff adjacent to the Cheyenne Reservation, and Katie Sackhoff  (Vic) as one of his deputies and Lou Diamond Phillips as "Henry", owner of the Red Pony bar.

It is a different take on the CSI genre.  Heck...if Miami can do it, why not Absaroka County, Wyoming?

How in the heck have I missed this program since 2012?  WTF??

I gives me new-found respect for the people on Watter's World and Streetwalking with Jay Leno.   :laugh:

I watched it on A & E when it ran there. Got good ratings, BUT A & E didn't own it, AND it didn't rate as high in they key demographic - 15 to 24. So A & E cancelled it. LONGMIRE, plus the mini-series MARCO POLO [I'm a HUGE Mongol fan] are two reasons I'm seriously considering dumping cable TV, except I'm technologically Neanderthalic, have no idea how Wi-Fi works, and have to worry about my computer and phone situation [I have all three from Cablevision.

Free yourself, my friend, free yourself from cable and satellite. Not only will you feel better when you are the one controlling what you watch and when you want to watch it, but you will be thousands richer at the end of the year.

All you really need is Netflix and maybe a few other subscription services. But, for me Netflix at 8 bucks a month is sufficient for my entertainment needs.

You can watch just about anything you want online. C-Span, Nova, Masterpiece Theater, Amazon prime (subscription) has hundreds of movies on demand, just like Netflix, which has the Marco Polo series among other notable TV series like House of Cards, Breaking Bad, CSINY, a bunch others.

Take the plunge and free yourself from cable.

A&E dropped them, but NETFLIX picked it up for season 4.

My wife and I watched Stranger Things and couldn't stop. We were done with all 8 episodes in 2 days. We never do that.

Netflix has GREAT original content, except for the stuff that is all pro-trans and gay agenda. That stuff sucks.
How to lose credibility while posting:
1. Trump is never wrong.
2. Default to the most puerile emoticon you can find. This is especially useful when you can't win an argument on merits.
3. Be falsely ingratiating, completely but politely dismissive without talking to the points, and bring up Hillary whenever the conversation is really about conservatism.
4. When all else fails, remember rule #1 and #2. Emoticons are like the poor man's tweet!
