I think I like Archive better because it's more horror-based. Yellowjackets is kinda rough at times because of all the flashbacks

Started Archive tonight. WTF. This is some freaky s#!t.

How's it going?

 

 

 

 

Watched Icarus on Netflix about the Russian doping scandal. Pretty interesting but not surprising. 

 

Anyone watch The Last Kingdom? Had some people recommend it

I just finished the 2nd season of Last Kingdom.  I have really liked it.  Good historical fiction.

I’ve got like 3 episodes left. It’s pretty freaky but I like it so far.
 

I also plan to watch the Last Kingdom.

Have you watched Game of Thrones? We had some people tell us they liked Last Kingdom better

That can’t be. Were they drunk? 

 

Hopefully it’s that good.

I have not.  I was told it is similar.  I guess I like it because I liked looking back on history and understanding the how England came about and all of struggles of these city states.

I don't participate much in this thread because I have a hard time getting "sucked in" to shows.

 

I'm a couple years late, but the other day I discovered "Upload" on AmazonPrime.  And I'm "sucked in".  Anyone else know about this show and if the second season will ever happen?

You're in luck, season 2 is dropping next Friday, March 11  https://www.digitalspy.com/tv/ustv/a32445110/upload-season-2-release-date-amazon-prime/

 

I remember watching it and liking it but I don't recall a lot of details

Vikings Valhalla season 1 on Netflix was good.  Takes place 100 years after the original Vikings TV ended.

I may try that next.

 

I started The Last Kingdom a couple nights ago but am having trouble staying engaged. The historically accurate parts are interesting but the fiction part is sort of driving the bus. I liked GoT much much better and that was just fantasy.

 

Plus I haven’t finished Archive 81. 3 episodes left and I’m not sure I’ll do it. I guess that one didn’t hit me too good either.

 

Thinking about a run through 24 again. Yes Mr. President.

I did a 24 rewatch...Got to season 7 and then just stopped.

I think you will like it.  Decently accurate historical wise and the storyline is good and acting was good.   Plus I like those period pieces.

7 is a good place to stop, 6 maybe better. IMO everything after and including Redemption just isn’t as good. The writer’s strike hurt them and then they went all soft on terrorists. A pretty stark departure from the first 6 seasons.

Yeah, it was fun to watch it again but it really starts get a little lame.

It really was must see TV for me back in the day.
