I'm watching Letterkenny all the way through again, which is WONDERFUL, and Somebody Somewhere which is also really enjoyable.

I just finished my rewatch of Star Trek: Voyager yesterday. I think next rewatch will be DS9, but I want to wait to start it because I'm having surgery in a few weeks, and it'll give me something to look forward to during recovery.

Voyager is the best star trek

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Ooh this is a hot take. I completely disagree (TNG > DS9 >>> VOY) but I appreciate your bravery.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

I am watching usual suspects (1995)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I have one episode left of Community, and I've been postponing it for a couple weeks.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Embrace the pain, finish it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

And then restart it. I'm on S1E12 for like the 30th time.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Guillermo Del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities. So far, Pickman's Model is my favorite episode.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

I kept trying to get into it but haven't so far. I'll try again this week.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

My main stay right now is Star Trek: Enterprise. On season 2.

Here and there I watch an episode of Drunk History, How To with John Wilson and Halo.

I highly recommend checking out How To with John Wilson. Nathan Fielder is one of the producers of it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

John Wilson is the most original series I think I've ever seen. I loved it.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

I'm in the middle of a rewatch binge of the legend of vox machina right now.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago

Just finished S04 of For All Mankind. Still love that show.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 months ago (3 children)

I just finished watching The Bear. I absolutely loved it, though there is certainly a lot of yelling in that show.

The family dinner episode was cinematic af.

Halfway through season six of Deep Space Nine for the first time!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I'm simultaneously happy for you and jealous of you.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

It feels like all my Trek is paying off. I have no desire to even do Voyager or modern series. It feels like it can’t do better.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yeah DS9 is peak for me for sure. TNG will always be my first love, but DS9 is like the deeper gourmet experience.

Although, I will let you know that I am currently enjoying Strange New Worlds. It has more of that fun and optimism of the old series that NuTrek seemed to think it was too cool for.

Alternating between Mythic Quest, which is done by the It's Always Sunny in Philly crew. It's very good!

And The Terror S1. It's also very good, and very dark.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I loved season 1 of The Terror! Jared Harris has become of of my favorite actors over the years. He was marvelous in the mini-series Chernobyl.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

We just rewatched Chernobyl the other night. One of the finest mini series ever done, and he is exceptional in it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (3 children)

mostly documentaries.. Cosmos, How the Universe Works, Through the Wormhole, Great Escapes with Morgan Freeman a little Haven, The X-Files, and Fringe

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Love X-Files. Takes me back to university days.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

How the Universe Works is the best space show. I’m so glad it’s been on for so many seasons.

[–] lingh0e 2 points 6 months ago

You should check out The Wonders of the Universe with Brian Cox (no, the other one).

It's probably one of the best limited series about the universe I've seen. Only time I've ever heard things like the eventual heat death of all existence described in such a beautiful and thought provoking way.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (2 children)

The Wheel of Time S02.

Way better that s01, it dosen't feels as rush and the world building more natural. Sincerely don't know why nobody talked about it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Season 2 is SO MUCH better than season 1. I'm glad they ignored the bullying online and kept making the show.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

This is my first time hearing about S2. After the backlash I really thought it would have been cancelled.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I've been meaning to watch Supernatural (the WB/CW show) for a good while now. But every time I was in the market for a show, I'd see "holy shit 15 fucking seasons each with like 22 episodes!?" (I mean, the first few times I looked into it, it was more like 10 episodes, but still quite an investment.)

But I finally just took the plunge and started in. I'm only in season 2 so far, but I'm loving it.

If it goes downhill later, please don't tell me. I don't want to know.

(Ok. You can tell me.)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

It’s an awesome show! There’s a couple seasons in the middle that aren’t as amazing as the rest (still fun to watch), but it picks back up and the final bunch of seasons were also great

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

At the moment? Nothing. But this evening I will watch the first part of Dune again before the second part gets on the big screen.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

Can't wait. Only one more week

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Breaking Bad and some BBC Attenboroughs

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (2 children)

With my wife we’ve been watching mostly Seinfeld or Escape to the Chateau right now, but got hooked on The Traitors. We’ve caught up on season 2 of the U.S. run so we’re stuck waiting for new episodes each week. Once that ends we’re planning to try the UK and Australian editions since they’re also on Peacock, and might try to find a way to watch the Canadian, French Canadian, and French editions when we’re done.

On my own I’m slowly making my way through the first season of Star Trek: The Next Generation.

Capote vs The Swans. It’s slower paced but the styling and designs from the 60s/70s are gorgeous. And I’m in love with the power female ensemble.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago

Dark Skies. Slow Horses. Scott Pilgrim.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I loved Letterkenny SO much, and I'm rewatching it as well! I just restarted season 2, and I'm rewatching Shoresy s1 as well.

My partner and I are also watching PsiCops, which is an intensely strange animated series.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

The Dierks donnybrook is the best scene I think ever filmed for TV.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

It was awesome, and Dierks is an asshole.

I loved the town hall episode about the best chips, tbf. It's so banal but it gets really passionate and I think that's fantastic.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

That episode was performed as a stage play.

Just finished True Detective Night Country and started Avatar The Last Air Bender. Oh man, it’s incredible seeing the disparity in TD reviews between critics and audiences.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Oh yeah my husband has been watching True Detective.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (2 children)

A super violent Spanish soap opera called the Wrong Side of the Tracks.

I had never actually watched even 1 episode of it so I am watching One Piece. I'm on episode 22 currently.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago

I'm watching nip/tuck on hulu as a nostalgia trip. I'm on the last season and it's plots have become even more ridiculous but its still mildly entertaining.
