What are you watching? - Covid19 edition - 4/2/2020

[Dave Gray]

I was sick right before this whole thing went down so I got about a 4 day head start on binging.

I watched:

I Am Not OK With This (Netflix) - About a angsty teenage girl struggling with her crappy family situation, being a school outcast, and her dead dad.  ...and discovers she has superpowers she can't control.  

The Crown - Season 3

Ozark - Season 2

Picard

Tiger King (Netflix) - About a group of people that own tigers.  It's a certain kind of person that is attracted to this.  The crazy kind.

And now, I've just started The Leftovers, a show that is basically about the rapture...I think.  It's hard to nail down.  Good reviews, but the show is very mysterious and you never really know what's going on...by one of the creators of LOST.

The Wire - we just finished this yesterday.  It was good and I'd recommend, but it wasn't the greatest show of all time like a lot of people say.

Ozarks - Season 3 - We just started this yesterday and are only 2 episodes in.  It's kind of disappointing so far, but the show has a slow burn to it a lot of the time.

Ashita no Joe - a Japanese anime from the 70s, considered a classic.  Seems like a lot of the stuff in Mike Tyson's Punch Out from the old NES took the show as influence.  Glass Joe for instance is somewhat based of the protagonist.

Tower of God - This is going to sound incredibly nerdy, but I don't care.  There is a pretty popular app called WebToons that has mostly Korean comics in it, but even Fabian Nicieza, Deadpool writer, has created content on there.  Well they've gotten enough popularity that CrunchyRoll has made cartoons on some of the comics, and Tower of God is probably my favorite.  Random kid has a bond with this blond girl, she leaves to climb the "Tower", he follows her.  You find out all this stuff along the way about him and the world they're in, like each floor of the tower is like the size of a continent and there are hundreds of floors, people have powers, etc.

Ink Master - one of the competition shows we watch about tattooing

Harley Quinn Movie - This wasn't very good, it had it's moments, but overall disappointing

Knives Out - was just okay, had a "Clue" feel to it, but not as good

I still need to see the Wire.  I watched the first episode a long, long time ago, but never got to it.  It's on my list, though.

I really loved Knives Out.

If you can get through the first season you'll be hooked.  It has a pretty slow pace at first.

Watched Contagion with the wife the other night.

We're looking to get started on season two of Altered Carbon.

[Dave Gray]

HBO just announced that 9 full TV series (the Wire, among them) and 20 movies are free to help people stay home for Coronavirus.

[MyGodWearsAHoodie]

Last night I watched Stronger and Scully.  With Scully it was the third time, first time for Stronger.  Those are the movies I need right now.

My ATT uverse contract expired and they wanted to jack up my rates, so i cancelled att altogether and installed xfinity for internet only.

As a result i signed up for youtubeTV and it's pretty good

Watched Contagion with the wife the other night.

How is that different from just watching the news?

I just started The Man in the High Castle today and I think I found something to keep me watching.
