That's a 176 episodes and you watch them all twice a year?!?! 🤯
Just watched the first four episodes this past weekend. Not bad, and it actually has some really funny parts in it. Who knew big Arnie would have this much comedy chops!
Fubar...

Well, not necessarily US TV, but I finished watching the first season of a South Korean show titled Doctor Romance at Viki.com, and now watching Doctor Romance 2. These is quite a good drama at a hospital trauma center.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Time for my periodic "re-run" of this titan of 90s sci-fi. Using my DVDs, its on Paramount+ but I can't be dealing with letterbox ratio for 176 episodes, which curiously the DVD does not have.
Having watched Queen Charlotte, we decided to watch Bridgerton, and have now finished Season 2.
Apparently they are doing a season for each of 8 books, Season 3 is in post production, arriving (perhaps??) before Christmas, and Season 4 is being filmed.

- Will Eloise and Theo make up?
- Will Penelope and Eloise make up?
- Will Collin and Penelope make up?
- Why are Anthony and Colin such idiots?
.. just started re-watching the Australian tv (drama) series -- A Place to Call Home -- via dvd. First watched the entire series a good time ago, and much-enjoyed it. (update - into Season 2 now, the "soap is rather thick", but interesting and enjoyable with the many twists & turns, and such supberb acting).

Just a note that Outlander Season 7 has landed. I haven't watched it yet though. I generally read the books but it can be 3-5 years between books.
I’m almost done (3 episodes away) with Stargate Atlantis. This was been a fun rewatch.
Is it still that outlandish brutal like the first season, with great detail on suffering, pain and torture?
Finished up The 4400, the last 2 seasons were a bit better, and the show kinda found it's stride, but still cheesy.
The concept was good, (maybe influenced the show below), just terrible execution.
Then moved onto Manifest last half of S4, meh, that Angelina character needed to go much sooner. (spoiler).
Happy ending... yahey!

Will finish The Lincoln Lawyer today, only 2 episodes left. If you like lawyer shows this is a good one on Netflix!
Season 2 is about to drop... the first episodes of S2 drop on July 6.
Just finished 1899. Interesting series. A bit confused about the 'why' on the last episode. Maybe the creators were planning for a season 2.
Probably Smallville. It was kinda boring when it first came out and I was just a child who was high on X-men movies. But looking back, it had a good premise. Rewatched a few episodes while doing my bc game brasil tasks and thought, maybe it would work well if redone today. The new series about Batman’s kids are trying so hard to be serious that they’re terrible.

Just finished binging Succession.
Incredibly well-defined characters and plot that keeps the suspense from the start. Dialogue was fantastic overall, though overwritten at times with unrealistic verbiage.
I thought it was impressive that they managed to keep all the characters almost equally unlikeable, so that there was never a clear favorite in the end.

Yesterday we binged the available episodes of The Crowded Room. It made my wife extremely uncomfortable, even more so when I explained to her the premise and what she was seeing, as opposed to what people in the show are seeing. It’s a great show, but it might not be for everyone to watch (there are issues that it deals with that will be sensitive to some folks).
Shokugeki no Soma (Food Wars!). I'm on season 5. I should have stopped at the end of Season 4.🤓
It's the animated take on Iron Chef. Student chefs battle each other in cooking contest based on a theme. I loved how they described how the chef combined ingredients to make the dish. Admitted, I understood none of it.😄 There is also a lot of character development.🥰 I loved how the major characters grew and developed, but this is a shonen (teenage boys demographics) anime. Season 5 suffers from our heroes conquering all their foes.
"So honor the valiant who die 'neath your sword…But pity the warrior who slays all his foes."*
Thus it suffers the shonen trope of ever stronger opponents needed to challenge our hero--think DBZ. Season 5 suffers tremendously as the main antagonist destroys all possibiliities of suspending belief. A young chef who can acquire the skills of other chefs just from handling their knives. Wait wut?!😵 Oh to be a naive teen again.🙃

They have toned it down, at least from what I've seen in episodes 1 and 2.
