gently caress yesssssss!

Smith had been kind of sort of hinting at Ralph Fiennes, but Paul Bettany is an equally excellent choice. Really looking forward to next season. Have they said who's going to be taking over as Margaret, yet?

E: is there a website that fact checks the episodes of ACS? I feel like one site did that for the OJ season. The guy trying to sell the crime scene photo and the woman dipping a Versace ad in the pool of blood were absolutely ghoulish, but I’m sure people are actually that loving depraved when it comes to celebrity deaths.

Anybody else watching Grace and Frankie S4? It’s a fun show, but it seems like it might be considered a show for ‘olds’ since the main cast are mid-to-late 70s.

The fact that I never head anything about that show makes me think that it has to be pretty bad. The cast looks pretty good though.
Would you recommend it?

Holy poo poo.

We watched the first two episodes of Banshee on Amazon Prime last night.

Holy. poo poo.

It reminds me a lot of Justified (which we both love), but more "extreme"... in a good way.

Does the quality stay this good?

It looks like only the first two seasons are available for free streaming, which is unfortunate.

It's incredible through the end of season 3. Season 4 is not as good.

Banshee is a great guilty pleasure entertainment that you don’t have to feel guilty about. Tons of extreme violence and nudity mixed with everything from Neo Nazis to Native Americans. The last season is a bit of a letdown but well worth watching all of it.

Someone needs to watch the best show on Amazon, Patriot or even Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

I really like it. Season 1 is on Netflix, and I think you can still watch Season 2 on AMC. They’re based of Joe Lansdale novels, and Williams and Purefoy play off each other well.

I hadn’t heard of it either until Netflix but like I said Sundance channel. Also each season is only six episodes so it’s not a huge time sink if you try out the first season and decide it’s not your cup of tea.

God I hate the guy. Community, Brooklyn Nine-nine and The Good Place. Just a shouty annoying character in all three. Either he's having sex with an influential casting director somewhere or I don't know what.

It's been awhile since I've seen it, but I remember him being pretty toned down in Enlightened.

There's at least one that I know about, and I think it's early in the first season. Lots of violent sex, consensual or non. I would honestly recommend staying away from it if that's even a chance.

I think this piece does a good job of sussing out what went wrong and why people seem to be (unfortunately) calming down on him.

To be sure, I still think he was wrong, but he was wrong in a more insidious way that can be blamed more on upbringing and society rather than simply being an rear end in a top hat (note: he's still an rear end in a top hat) like Weinstein and Louis C.K. What Ansari did was clearly damaging, and what little sympathy I have for him is rooted in how he might have turned out a lot different if he had better sex education. But to properly work through the aftermath of it and learn the right lessons requires a far more nuanced conversation than the ones that started this movement.
