I know I'm probably a little late since it came out 2 years ago, but has anyone watched Kaleidoscope on Netflix with Giancarlo Esposito? Wife and I binge watched the entire thing this past Saturday since it was cold and rainy. Such a good show.
Never even heard of it!
So without giving anything away, it's about a huge heist and each episode is in a different time period. You can watch the episodes in basically any order, and I think when it first debuted, Netflix users would randomly get different starting episodes. Each episode is from a different time period (day of the heist, 6 weeks after the heist, 24 years before the heist, etc.) I just let Netflix play them on a playlist and didn't click specific ones. Really, really good. Only 8 episodes, ~50 minutes an episode.

The Last of Us, Season 2. That first episode was an emotional banger! Wow.

Dis-cuss!
I've been waiting. Will subscribe soon! Maybe let it get a few episodes in first although I could binge WL in the meantime.
And after that I got an email from Hulu about getting Max for an additional $10 a month so I signed up and I'm watching the first episode now.
Synchronicity and all that jazz, man.

I haven't watched The Last of Us S2E1 yet (too hooked on Blue Prince, see Video Games thread). But I'll watch it soonish. I enjoyed Season 1 though I have no connection at all to the TLoU video games (didn't play them) and don't especially love zombie stories. I liked The Walking Dead the first few seasons, and I liked some zombie movies like 28 Days Later and World War Z, but mostly I get burnt out on these horror genres. TLoU season 1 was fun, though, and I love Pedro Pascal, so I'm definitely going to watch Season 2.

My wife and I finished The White Lotus S3 (we love that show! fun season) and also finished watching season 1 of Paradise on Hulu (meh; we didn't really love this one; found it cheesy and predictable).

What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

A man with good taste. My wife and I talked about how so many shows have filler and drag things on (Severance had a lot of that this season. Season 3 of Yellowjackets has been that way so far too). The Last of Us, every episode moves the needle and is outstanding.

Totally agree about all of it. Season 3 of yellowjackets was a total drag. I just finished it for the sake of finishing it since I'm invested at this point
