TV Watching & Cord Cutting

[mjmaherjr]

BTW Paul I think it was you who gave a list of superhero marvel or whatever shows to watch. Are they all available on netflix streaming and if so which order should I binge watch ?

Also anyone have any other binge shows ? We are going to start gommorah soon then animal kingdom. Finishing outllander but Nat likes that a lot more than I do

I too am a big GOT fan. But as I mentioned the othery Homeland on showtime is also much watch TV , IMO. I would be very surprised if you don't love it.

You and I love the same shows. We are addicted to homeland

Watch Fauda if you haven't seen it already. Love those type of shows

What station is Fauda on and what type of show is it? You are right, Homeland is addicting.

I've had a love/hate relationship with Twin Peaks The Return. Right now, I'm swooning.

The 5 Marvel series on Netflix

1) Daredevil
2) Jessica Jones
3) Luke Cage
4) Iron Fist
5) Defenders

The 5th one brings all the heroes from the first 4 together. I'd watch them in that order but especially Jessica Jones before Luke Cage since he gets introduced there. The Punisher also gets introduced in Daredevil and has a pretty big role in season 2.

I like the individual shows better than Defenders but Iron Fist got a lot of negative feedback. I didn't hate it but think it is the weakest of the 4. I thought Jessica Jones was the best of the 5 but Luke Cage is pretty cool too.

Well said. The one thing I would slightly disagree with is that I though Daredevil was the best. Pathetically, I have complained so much about Iron Fist around the house that my oldest son and his friends now call me Iron First. I am Rodney Dangerfield... no respect.

Also, the Knight King looks very effeminate. Killer episode!

hey you might be onto something. One theory now is that the Knight King is Bran Stark. He has already traveled in time and affected it. Check out the resemblance:

Same slender figure as well. I like mine with a little meat. Probably old news now but the final episode was announced "The Dragon and the Wolf". Running almost 80 minutes. That's at least a 3 foot hero episode!

I wonder if homeland is based on Fauda. I know that it is based on an Israeli show.

Also really like Ray Donovan which I believe other posters noted. I think you are in the finance industry? Haven't watched it but Billions my brother really likes. Both Showtime.

Love Billions. Nathalie worked on an episode of it but I think they cut her scene out the first season.

Yeah I'm in finance. Not the hedge fund side but it's real interesting show and Giamatti is awesome

I've had a love/hate relationship with Twin Peaks The Return. Right now, I'm swooning.

I am 5 weeks behind right now and understand what you mean about love/hate. It is simultaneously amazing and frustrating and confusing and exhilarating. As an avowed Lynchian and original Twin Peaks/Fire Walk With Me lover, I am in it for the long run but it's getting harder and harder to get my wife to commit to catching up.

The show has sped up considerably in the last few weeks. No loose ends have been tied up (well except one this week - Ep. 15 - It's arguably the most touching moment in all of TP history and will have longtime fans cheering). But the ride is becoming exhilarating again.

Another great episode. The night king riding the dragon is one scary situation.

Chris Mullin was a Jeopardy question tonight. The category was "hall of fame". They gave you the player and you had to name the sport. The first one was Jermone Bettis. The 2nd was Hank Greenberg, and no one guessed the answer. Geez! Chris was 3rd. No mention of SJU

I won't add any spoilers other than to say that I was glad to be rid of one character but gotta wonder at the author of this who decided that Jon Snow had way too much in common with Jamie...

Cultivate a new pastime. May I suggest college hoops? Or perhaps beer?

I thought The Defenders was entertaining. I'm looking forward to The Punisher. My brother is friendly with Jon Bernthal, so I'm a bit biased in him being my favourite character. I also collected Punisher comics as a kid. I played pickup hoops with Jon st my brothers wedding. He is a tough PG. he was a college baseball player so a good athlete and a strong guy.

Maybe I had this stuck in my mind while watching the episode but this could be plausible. The crows coming in at the end right before they appear as he's stares at the tree..

Anyone read the books? Is the show remotely close to the books?
