After your recommendation and its Golden Globe wins, I watched the pilot with the wife last night. Quite good so far. I’m under strict orders to only watch with the wife, which means we may finish by 2020 if we are lucky. We’ve been midway through the latest season of The Americans for months.

Is there a way to stream The Americans?
My wife and I just finished Godless on Netflix last night. I thought it was fantastic. Jeff Daniels is just a fantastic actor who can play many roles well (Dumb and Dumber, Godless, The Newsroom) to name a few. But I thought they did a great job of casting, story development, as well as getting you hooked. It can be slow at times, but it drew me in and the last episode is great. A little unrealistic, but great none the less.
Amazon has it if you've got Prime.

There's legitimately too much good tv now. I don't have time to watch 1/10th of what looks good. I've been slowly working on Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and Dark for a month, I've only seen two episodes of the new season of Black Mirror, and then there's easly 10+ shows like Godless that look good that I have in the queue that I won't get around to for years probably.
I wonder if this will continue or if we're in a bubble.

Great show but tough to binge. A show like that is best to watch a few at a time.
Speaking of bubbles, sadly, you have to add Netflix's Chewing Gum to the queue. My wife and I avoided it as much as we could but we finally buckled and it became one of our favorite shows.

Dark really is that good. Worth the watch.
Just finished Wormwood last night. Errol Morris multi-part doc about MK-Ultra. I'm not sure the reenactments add much, but it's a fascinating story.
End of the ———- World was pretty interesting. Quirky. Fit my mood at the time. I’d watch it again. At 22 minutes an episode, it goes by quickly.
When all is said and done more is said than done.
For those like me who don’t have Showtime, Season 5 of Homeland just started streaming on Hulu

I guess I'd better catch up on Master of None before Netflix does something stupid.
Found myself a little bored by season 4 of Black Mirror. The pattern is really wearing thin. Oh no, some new technology has made life a nightmare!

The third episode was so stupid I might be done. It was an outstanding show, but things run their course.
Weirdly, I think reality actually overran it. Now it feels incredibly quaint to worry about the things in these episodes.

I tried watching the first couple episodes of Fox's The Resident. Good Lord is it terrible. Do not watch.
Watched the first two episodes of AMC's The Terror last night. Fantastic, it has me hooked already.
