2019TV-MA1 SeasonTV Shows
A painter in Istanbul embarks on a personal journey as she unearths universal secrets about an Anatolian archaeological site and its link to her past.
Starring:Beren Saat, Mehmet Günsür, Metin Akdülger
Its a different slow flick.. but i like it. Its in a differnt language...but is already translated in english instead of subtitles
Watching the docuseries as I type this ...
The Witcher Netflix
I jumped in not knowing anything about The Witcher. Except for video games, overall I like how they did the 2 different timelines. Amd I think the overall presentation is great. The only thing that kind of sucks is that fans of the show gotta wait 2 years for season 2.
Atypical Season 2 Netflix
The Mandalorian Disney Plus
I loved every episode of this show. I know chunks of the Star Wars expanded universe. But not too much of the Mandalorians. I saw a video where they said the Mandalorians are a derivative of the deathwatch. That was featured in The clone wars cartoon. I like that "The Force" isn't a big part of this story yet, letting people take a break from the usual stuff star wars fans are used to.

Fleabag on Amazon Prime
Gonna check out the series in full in the weeks ahead. Have heard the fan & critic reviews/recaps the past year. Have seen the first 2 eps of season 1. Really well-written.

The Loudest Voice
I thought Russell Crowe did a great job as Roger Ailes
The show moves at a good pace and shows the fuckery that went on behind the scenes at Fox News for the last 25 years or so.
Sexual harassment is a big in this series but because we live in the #metoo era and this is essentially a #metoo movie, there is NO NUDITY. One woman is shown in lingerie and she routinely gives him off camera blow jobs, he also touches a woman's belly and touches a few women's asses but no nudity. If this movie came out prior to the #metoo era, it probably would have been loaded with it but it stays buttoned up.
Ex-Fox News Star Courtney Friel Reveals Roger Ailes Made Her Twirl & Leered At Thighs

Former Fox host claims staff joked Roger Ailes was 'dirty old man'
Courtney Friel claimed she told staff at Fox News that Roger Ailes had 'Dirty Old Man Syndrome' whenever he would make her feel uncomfortable or make inappropriate comments about other people.

Dracula Netflix
Saw this trailer, in the middle of watching the Pierce Bronson's' James Bond films. Anyway, I switched from those movies. To watch all this show. And I thought this show is good. Other places are saying this is a miniseries. So I don't know how long this is going to last. But I hope it returns. I would recommend this show.

Currently nearing the end of a binge-watch on Cheer - real life documentary about a cheerleading team in Texas participating in the national championships. Was intrigued by it after reading praises from critics
All the feels. Really rather good.

Netflix's 'Cheer' Goes Even Further Into the Pain of College Athletics Than 'Last Chance U'
The docuseries shows all the (literal) blood, sweat, and tears that go into being a champion.
Cheer review – absolute proof that cheerleaders are gravity-defying gods
This awe-inspiring Netflix show follows a cheerleading team as they try to flip, toss and pyramid their way to the top. Are the bruises and breakages worth it?
Been catching up on some DVR'd episodes of this series. It's pretty good. Always interesting to get a look behind the scenes of the inner workings of a restaurant or bar. Especially given how stressful and trying the restaurant/culinary world can be. Plenty of moving parts, personalities, and dynamics. Especially when couples, and families are working together, and things haven't been going well. Or the manager(s) not running the place effectively and delegating roles and tasks the way they should ... in turn they're burnt out, stressed, in major financial debt, and taking on too many roles at the failing establishment (sometimes 12 - 16 hours a day, 7 days a week). I wonder how some restaurants are able to pass inspections ... given the rough shape many kitchens & walk-in freezer / fridges' supply counts are. That shit is no joke when the food you're serving to customers can directly impact their health & safety. Interesting to see some of the 3-month updates at the end of the episodes ... see which places have maintained and improved, or vice-versa.

Gordon Ramsay's 24 Hours to Hell and Back is an American reality television program which premiered on Fox on June 13, 2018.
Starring chef Gordon Ramsay, the show features his travels across the United States, visiting failing restaurants in his 70-foot-long "Hell On Wheels" semi-truck that unfolds into a high-tech mobile kitchen, where the chefs are retrained. At first, a team is sent in to secretly survey the restaurant, with Ramsay eventually going undercover inside. He then tries to address the issues and revive each restaurant by retraining staff and refreshing the menu, culminating in a relaunch of the restaurant with a grand re-opening to the public after extensive renovations—all in just 24 hours. The format is similar to those of other programs such as Hotel Hell, Kitchen Nightmares, and Restaurant: Impossible.[1][2][3]
On June 27, 2018, Fox renewed Gordon Ramsay's 24 Hours to Hell and Back for a second season, which premiered on January 2, 2019.[4][5] The show was later renewed for a third season on July 26, 2019,[6] which premiered on January 7, 2020.[7]

Deputy is an American Western procedural drama television series created by Will Beall. The project started development in October 2018.[1] Fox made a put pilot commitment on January 2019[2] and then ordered the series May 2019.[3] The series premiered on January 2, 2020.[4]
A modern cop drama that blends the spirit of a classic Western with a modern-day attitude and gritty authenticity. When the Los Angeles County’s Sheriff dies, an arcane rule forged back in the Wild West thrusts the most unlikely man into the job: a fifth-generation lawman, more comfortable taking down bad guys than navigating a sea of politics. He leads a skilled team of ambitious and complicated human beings who won’t rest until justice is served.
