Monarch on appletv+ has been surprisingly interesting so far.

Should be good.I’ve lost interest in watching stuff this past month, but I am looking forward to Slow Horses S3 coming out soon.
If you like British humor try Brassic. Available by sailing on the seven seas.Enjoying Monarch. Could do with a comedy or three!
The airport scene seemed totally unnecessary. Coach Beard could have just told Lasso he isn't going back to Kansas.
And what's the point of Rebecca buying a ticket to say goodbye to Lasso when they have been doing it repeatedly throughout the one hour plus episode.
Also why was Rupert going to lose control of West Ham? Because of the Super League? Other owners were at the table too.
And what happened to the doctor guy at Lasso's Kansas house? Lasso's wife ditched him because he had no interest in footy?
We already know how much time you waste watching and listening to garbage. You will enjoy this one.I would have checked it out if you didn't include the poster. Now I think I'm going to lose 40 minutes of my life which I will never get back.

Finally finished it and it was hilariously dumb and fun. The female lead is only nude in the first ep, sadly (she had the face of someone carrying a lot more weight than is on her body). Lots of sex, drugs, jump cuts and action. 8.0/10View attachment 47393
I caught the first episode of this lastnight and I actually enjoyed it. It’s a big dumb action story full of nudity and drugs that doesn’t take itself seriously at all.
tried to give episode 1 a watch last night. this is awful.Finally finished it and it was hilariously dumb and fun. The female lead is only nude in the first ep, sadly (she had the face of someone carrying a lot more weight than is on her body). Lots of sex, drugs, jump cuts and action. 8.0/10
Like that one too. Caught it over xmas holsJust started Bodies from Netflix and it is very promising so far.
It amazes me that this spectacular gem is unknown among many. I guess being saddled on the awful and pitiful Apple TV doesn't help its cause.Slow Horses S3 delivered (again) 10/10
I’d never thought of it as an action series, but there was a lot more shooting and fight scenes in this one. And oh man was it beautifully paced and produced.
The storyline is getting a bit ott and the Slow Horses aren’t believable as the rejects after so much winning, but that doesn’t detract from the entertainment.
All Taylor Sheridan's shows should really be avoided. He has spread himself so thin with so many shows with interesting premises but all jump the sharkI finished watching Special Ops: Lioness. It's 8 episodes following a CIA black ops group that tracks down an Arab financier of terror activities. The Lioness is the woman operative they train. In this case it's an abused woman who turned to the Marines. Laysla De Oliveira pretends she's Arab (I guess Brasilian people look like Arab people?) and infiltrates through the target's free spending daughter to get close and terminate the target.
There were some good action scenes. They spent a lot of money on casting. Morgan Freeman only comes on in the last two episodes as Secretary of State. Michael Kelly does his usual Michael Kelly thing from House of Cards. Nicole Kidman starts out as that shadowy figure in the background, and turns into a woman hell bent on stopping the next incarnation of ISIS. Zoe Saldana has the most screen time as the show covers her family and the impacts of working a clandestine job on her two daughters and husband.
I thought the show ended pretty abruptly. De Oliveira and Saldana get into a fight because she feels she was used and started getting attached to the target's daughter. And then the show just ends with Saldana reuniting with her family. Nobody really knows what happens to the other folks but who cares(?)
Agreed they’re all pretty crap now. Bass reeves was a letdown by the end sadly.All Taylor Sheridan's shows should really be avoided. He has spread himself so thin with so many shows with interesting premises but all jump the shark
Something else entirely.Sleeping Dog, Blood Coast or The Golden Hour for an upcoming flight?
It is but it kind of drags in the later seasons.Started Reservation Dogs. It's good.
Monarch is boring.
I hate you. I watched this in its entirety based on your recommendation. As I was stuck at the station for a couple of hours.Finally finished it and it was hilariously dumb and fun.

Inarguably the worst thing I have seen in the past twenty years. The lead had an ass to appreciate though.
I tried to warn youtried to give episode 1 a watch last night. this is awful.
Yeh, he hated it so much he binge watched the entire series in all of its glorious dumbnessI tried to warn you
I like to finishYeh, he hated it so much he binge watched the entire series in all of its glorious dumbness![]()
It’s a good fun watch. You just have think of him as a military terminator bad ass crossed with a rail car hopping hobo.I like to finish
Anyhow, I followed 'glorious dumbness' with another one of its ilk, 'Reacher'. Dear Lord, the Reacher guy is a terrible wooden actor but it's mindless amusement so far
Did anyone watch Halston? I thought it was new so I added it to my list. I read somewhere it was Ewan MacGregor finally taking on a role that didn’t involve a Star Wars or him cast as a bearded hermit so he could show how handsome he is.
I’m finally on the last episode. Bill Pullman comes off as pretty well. Aged appropriately. I didn’t even know that was Vera Farmigia until I poked on Google about the movie. Then I found out it’s a biopic.
However I have seen enough of various men bending over and taking it
Thought it was good, not great, interesting insight into an interesting time in the rag trade.
