Finished season 2. You can tell they had an overhaul in the writing and creative department. Some good episodes but just didn't hit the level that season 1 had IMO. Hoping for a season 3, I think they can/should wrap it up after a 3rd. Felt pretty frustrated that in the grand scheme, we didn't le...

So I finally watched the finale and slept on it for a couple of days and I think I've concluded that I prefer the show just to end rather than have another season. I did not see the point of making him an alien and then waiting so long for the twist, that you barely have time to acclimate becaus...

Yeah, I don't think anything has changed. Sears is in a position where he can truly choose between two great outcomes, a better position than most in his situation. If he gets a guarantee, he can start toward his dream of playing in the NBA. If the feedback isn't great, he's going to get a fat NIL c...

[quote]A couple things that bothered me this season, surface things not the big thing, the cuts to classic detective movies (Vertigo, Double Indemnity etc.) just made me wonder why I wasn't watching those movies and didn't help when I compared Sugar to those. The second (and this is a thing that alm...
Starting season 2 this weekend, I have one episode left of Sugar and have to finish Fallout. Going to be a busy weekend with a concert thrown in there as well. Really loved season 1, reviews of season 2 have been kinda mixed so we'll see what happens....

[quote]Yeah they will be good, but they retained a ton this past season too. AU will pad their wins to look more impressive than they are though. I truly believe if they beefed up their non-conference schedule a little more they would be more ready when it comes to the tournament that actually matte...

[quote]Unpopular opinion but they’ll be Top 10 caliber next year. They retain a ton [/quote] I'll say a big positive with Pearl is he does retain a lot of his players and that experience and chemistry can go a long way early in the season and when trying to get over a wall during the season. ...

That event really snuck up on me, how did it go?...
I read somewhere the other day that McGuire's has like 1.5 million dollars on their restaurant walls. Couldn't stop thinking about a heist movie where they go undercover and steal all the cash. [quote]Title: Ocean's Eleven: The Cash Wall Heist [INT. LAS VEGAS - NIGHT - A FANCY RESTAURANT] [...
UNC and Virginia feel more like Big 10 schools. I would take VT and NC State for new footprints and then bring in FSU and Clemson. Someone else brought up the idea of Kansas and I don't hate that idea either. They're throwing a lot more resources into football now, would just need to find one ...

Thought it was alright, just so many subplots going on it became a bit too much and as someone else said, heavily melodramatic. It is one of the reasons why I'm happy RDJ is done with the MCU, people can forget how good of an actor he is when not surrounded by green screens. ...
[quote]I've never seen a Cagney movie to confess, IIDK why....I was a devoted TCM fan. I remember Billy Crystal doing mocking impressions of him in I think Forget Paris....maybe that's why I never went down that path....his movies just weren't on. [/quote] Do you have the TCM app? They always ha...

I don't see chemistry being too big of an issue, it's a veteran squad. The returning players know the expectations, the vets coming in know their role and (in some cases) are taking less playing time to be in this system, and the freshmen coming in know they have to earn it and if they're not ready,...

I feel like Cliff is Bama bound. Him and Nelson just followed each other and he's following over half our team now but like none from the other teams....

Cliff is the ideal guy for us. He can run, is a rim protector, rebounds well, and plays excellent interior defense. Offensively, he's way more developed than Onyenso but still won't command too many touches. He can finish around the rim and score on putbacks. He's not a back-to-the-basket guy and di...
Just enough time to rewatch season 1 again, very excited for a new season. One of the more interesting shows I've watched the past few years....

Yeah I'm not sure how I feel about the twist yet, I think we have two more episodes remaining so let's see how this plays out....

I just started this one and am enjoying it, it seems like it's getting better with each episode. Has that Raymond Chandler noir film and Sugar is a high classic film buff, so I've been loving all the references. ...
