I had to go back and watch recaps from prior seasons to remember what the background storylines were but, for a binge watch, it was enjoyable |

I thought it was so boring that for the first time I don't care if they renew it or they don't. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | The Michelle Obama Nflix thingie is being panned by critics as boring, bland and paper thin. I wonder if they covered where she tried to play pro football.. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | The Hollywood thing on Nflix is a fantasy piece. It's showing what the world would have been like if Hwood had embraced homosexuality and got rid of racism in the late 40's. But that's never explained, how many watching think they're seeing actual history. Of course that's the intent of the producers, rewriting history. They have just enough real history mixed in with total bull****. Like the Black actors palling around with the White actors, eating in the same restaurants, going to the same bars, mixed race couples, Black screenwriters. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Evenbob Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 146 Posts: 25011 | On my 5th seasons of Weeds. You have to watch it like it's the old Batman TV show, totally suspend your disbelief and it's pretty entertaining. Lots of good well written comedy mixed with serious stuff. It's a hoot. MLP actually gets hotter with every season. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | On RT they run documentary's every day. I'm watching a series now on the bombing of Laos. I've seen them on Vietnam before but I don't think on Laos. Laos is asking the US for help in clearing unexploded ordinance from the VN war. Some stats they have already shown. we dropped 80 million bombs on Laos although never declaring war on them. Many of the cluster bomb "bomblets" didn't explode, they think they have fewer than one percent of the land cleared. We dropped on average one planeload of bombs every 8 minutes, 24 hours per day for nine years. Watching interviews with some of the people that lived through it, one guy in particular was born the same year I was [55] and it made me think how different our lives are. 1/10th of the population was killed. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |
