Anything new that someone wants to point out. Wife and I watching This is Us and I put up a fight but now love it. Also keeping eyes on Brawl in Cell Block 99 movie that is shooting with my nephew/bodyguard playing Johnny Mu.

I was skeptical of that one as well, but it is surprising me. Designated Survivor is also strong, and one that totally caught me by surprise and is perhaps could be called a guilty pleasure we are liking The Exorcist on Fox. A couple new comedies we are digging, Speechless and The Good Place are pretty funny.

Finally got into Westworld, we have watched the first 4 episodes so far it is very entertaining. Just read it has been renewed for a 2nd Season I agree many potential ways to take the show.

My favorite character is Ed Harris'.

They dropped a huge bomb on us last night. Awesome episode for the most part.

Black Mirror on Netflix is great. It's a modernized Twilight Zone, though much darker.

And Pants, I think you would like Mr. Robot, which is also very dark.

Season 2 was darker than the first season IMO it is a quality show though. Great performances. Have heard other people praise Black Mirror, will have to check it out.

I've watched the first season. Have the 2nd on DVR for the winter.

I like it but it's a little too junior college artsy at times.

Both solid.
A good movie I watched again recently is Take Shelter. Strong ending.
Great movie actually.
