Your Mount Rushmore for…

[gandalfe]

Never a huge fan of Tales from the Crypt, but back then there wasn't a lot else to watch late at night, but in addition to a lot of "c-tier" actors there were a lot of famous or to be famous actors on the show. Brad Pitt, Daniel Craig, Dan Aykroyd, Beau Bridges, Benicio del Toro, Jonathan Banks and a bunch of others.

I remember liking it, but tried rewatching it recently, and... nah. The first movie (Demon Knight) was pretty good, tho. Billy Zane, William Saddler, Jada Pinkeet (pre-Smith). Just good and cheesy.

Tales from the Crypt was cheesy and had C-tier actors at best. Fun for a weekend night sleepover when I was in my teens, though.

Yeah I think I watched every single episode, then again there wasn't a lot to watch, so it was kind of by default. But now I cannot imagine it would have aged very well considering it was b-movie lite at the time it came out originally.

I did enjoy the 1st season of Cobra Kai quite a lot. The following one, not really, haven't seen after that.

 

[Rubashov]

1. The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson
2. Band of Brothers
3. Game of Thrones minus final season, maybe 2
4. Breaking Bad
5. The Wire

I think Cobra Kai, House of Cards and Stranger Things might be good, but every time I turn on any Netflix shows I end up chilling with Hearsky's mom...

A lot of Netflix on mine.

Last Kingdom
Mindhunters
It’s always Sunny
Peaky Blinders

The Wire
Breaking Bad
Rome
Early Game of Thrones

Definite honourable mentions for Rome, Band of Brothers and The Last Kingdom.

If you enjoyed Rome, Simon Scarrow's Eagles of the empire series of novels is ****ing excellent. The Last Kingdom series by Bernard Cornwell is also a brilliant read, so much better than the TV show and I really like the TV show. Id also recommend getting a hold of Richard Winters autobiography its a cracking read alongside the show and book adds a lot of colour and detail.

I don't watch a lot of TV (hardly any of the ones you've all mentioned above), but these are ones I have loved enough to buy on DVD (I'm a dinosaur).

My only problem with SportsNight was that it was cancelled - and how it ended. In a way, that was even worse than Fierfly, just because it had gone for longer, and they OBVIOUSLY had somewhere they were going. Like, it stopped in the middle of the storyline.

Sports Night and The Newsroom, two more brilliant shows from Aaron Sorkin, mans a coke addled genius.

I forgot about true detective. Imo true detective season one is the best television in history and Montague does the best acting job i have ever seen. True detective should be on my rushmore. But only season 1

Good call

I'll check it out.



One I forgot was Fargo season 1. That was really great. BBT played a perfect bad guy, in a perfect way. Just nuts. "Hey, you offered me a drink, how about I just kill someone for you and we call it even."

Agreed on Fargo. Season 1 was fantastic. Season 2 was also really good.
