I'm rewatching curb on the train home lately. Up to series 4. It still holds up well.

Then joy of joys I see series 15 of Sunny is on Netflix and unlike #14 its aaiieeeet.
No doubt. I like humor in dramas like Succession, but i cant stand comedies.

CURB is legit tho

Moscow is the dude I’m excited to see. Didn’t even know he was in it until I pulled up his show list to see how many he’s been in with the actor I like because it seems he’s in every older one I put on.
Based off Squid Game alone, he's a phenomenal actor. And that'll be necessary for Money Heist. You could make an argument that Berlin is the most important character in the story

I'm liking
Alone TV show
Old Man(posted trailer above)
and waiting for the second half of Better Call Saul final season

Westworld first season was perfect, for me the series ends with this amazing expression and moment

Westworld season 2 made no sense.

In the cowboy themed world, the guns won't fire for real when pointed at real people. OK so that's still a bit silly, as people would still get hit by ricochets, but it at least makes some sense.

Season 2 introduced the feudal Japanese world, where people were running about with swords and shit. How the fuck did that work? Did they have swords with electronically controlled hardness? You chop a robot's head off, but try to slash at a real person and the sword turns to rubber, bouncing off them with a "boing" noise? Ridiculous.

Really enjoyed Adam Sandler’s “Hustle.” I like most of his against-type movie roles.

Finally getting around to watching the second half of the last season of “Ozark.” I’m dreading finishing it.

I enjoy him in dramatic roles. I felt "Hustle" kind of dragged (drug?) on because each step was so predictable. The plot itself was good. Definitely cliche, but a bit of a different twist on it, and the acting was pretty outstanding. Oh and for Chrissake you don't have to put every NBA player in the movie.

Finally getting around to watching the second half of the last season of “Ozark.” I’m dreading finishing it.
"Dreading" you're sad it's done, or "dreading" "Holy Fuck this is going to get bad"?

Awesome question. Olenna Tyrell (littlefinger was in on it too)

Olenna didn't want her granddaughter marrying a monster. Moreover, she planned on winning over Tommen, and they knew he would be a pushover

Littlefinger likes chaos. And he leveraged the chaos to escort sansa out of the city as the first step of winning the vale/north

If you rewatch the scene, olenna fixed sansas necklace. One of the gemstones went missing. That gemstone was a poison. Olenna put it into Jeffrey's cup

Here's a video I made a long time ago for screenshots if you're bored

Extra fun stuff.

Arya has an extended journey with the brotherhood without banners in her Riverlands subplot. On that journey, she meets a woodswitch (greenseer) as opposed to melisandre

The woodswitch, Called the ghost of highheart, has greensight. Visions are often metaphors so as to protect the timeline (melidandres quest to change the future is futile since both the past and the future are effectively already written)

One of the visions she told arya was that she saw a maiden in a castle of snow slaying a giant. The red herring for that is that Robyn arryn says he is a giant and he smashed the snow castle she built at the Vale. Then she slapped him

Although the next book isn't out yet, the giant whom that maiden slays will probably be littlefinger either at the vale during winter or later up north at winterfell. (Littlefinger is jot only a "giant" in terms of the game. Theres an even better reason for the metaphor in the prophecy. So his father started a family on one of the vale peninsulas called the fingers. The littlest one, thus littlefinger. Since his father was from braavos, he used the titan of braavos as the sigil of his house. (The titan was that giant statue that you sail under to get into the braavos harbor). Littlefinger created a sigil of his own, a mockingbird, bur still... his family's sigil might be the clue in the "giant" of thar prophecy

The woodswitch went on to tell arya another prophecy. She said that she dreamed of the same maiden as in the first prophecy (sansa) at a feast with serpents in her hair. The serpents fangs were dripping with venom (in the books, its a hairnet of amethyst, not a necklace). Olenna removes one of them, which was actually poison, and put it in Jeffrey's cup

Another fun theory in the books is that tywin was actually dying before tyrion shot him. In theory, olenna poisoned him as well. She's a bad bitch

shoresy was also a part time high school hockey ref, his lines to the kids about their acne and moms were great
