What are you watching on Netflix and Amazon Prime?

I think it was the movie that "Airplane" was parodying

The first half of season 2 for Lincoln Lawyer dropped on Netflix.

Also watched Out-Laws on Netflix this weekend. A silly comedy/action flick that was okay and required little concentration.

Another one I'll watch once it is all out

Prime.

One of my must-read authors.

Season 2 of Joe Pickett is kick butt

Is it? Because I got through like two episodes of the first season and thought it was cheap junk.

Love the books, though.

Season 1 was painful, especially to a fan of the books. But Season 2 seems to be starting off a bit better.

My wife and I finished the last two episodes of this series last night. Great series, of course sort of a blah last scene. But throughout the sereis it was captivating and interesting.

I actually watched the documentary on the 80's and 90's show American Gladiators on Netflix, it was pretty interesting how the show developed and how the studio/producers really crapped on the actors/gladiators, the backstage stories about steroid use etc.

Sojust finished binge-watching Jack Ryan Season 4. Not impressed. Good thing they are ending it now.

Final two episodes dropped today.

Perfect. My wife is leaving town next week and I’ll be able to finish it while she is gone. I’m two episodes in at this point

I watched the first drop, I'm not at all excited about it.

This series has little resemblance to Clancy's Ryan.

Ford, Affleck and even Baldwin had better scripts and portrayals.

True. The only real resemblance to the books are the names of the characters.

I guess it's good for me I haven't read any of the books. I can enjoy it for what it is.

Books are usually better than the movie version.

 

[Hawkeye]

IMNSHO, They would have been better making it about Jack Ryan, Jr. That would have es=escaped some of my problems with the series. But would not have avoided the stupid scripting/plot/filmmaking issues that I have with it. Timelines and continuity are out the window with this series. They are bad.

I literally fell asleep somewhere in Episode 2. I'll have to go back and rewatch, but thus far, Season 4 hasn't really caught my attention. I did enjoy the first 3 seasons.
