I enjoyed it a lot more than I thought I would.

It's really beautifully directed, and I appreciate the way it shifts between storylines and time periods and only slowly reveals how they are woven together.

It's been a few years since I read the book, so I only remembered the broad strokes of the story. It's been nice to feel surprised by it again.
Maybe it hits different if the novel is still fresh in your mind, though.

I was worried that it was gonna be more of “art saves humanity” type story but it was more about hope in the a time of despair. Completely agree on the direction, cinematography, and storyboarding. Sometimes the time jumps like that can be gimmicky but never felt that way here. HBO knows how to make beautiful TV.

Hilariously late, but just finished season one of Stranger Things.

Yeah, it was such a fun surprise when it was first released and it holds up really well. I rewatched all the prior seasons before season 4 and even while still basking in the glow of the really well done season 4 finale, I would still say season 1 is my favorite.

Anyone watching The Old Man? First couple episodes were good.

Think I am 3 eps in. We enjoy it. Not earth shattering but I will watch anything with Jeff Bridges.

Discovery probably needed the money for another 90 Day Fiancé spinoff.My heart

Same. Jon Lithgow is great too.
I'm not sure what I think of Today's episode of The Orville.
Good episode, but I feel really really bad for Gordon. What a shitty situation.

I'm posting this in television because it made me think about how we need to bring back Celebrity Deathmatch. We could have watched Phoebe and Linda Carter in a tag team kick the crap out of Bette Middler and Macy Grey. That's what we as a people need to see.
