You're gonna see A LOT of Emmy Rossum.

Such a great show. She has such a funny delivery... the father, the older brother, and Annie Potts as the grandmother are LOL funny also.

You have discovered one of the true gems of the TV sitcom landscape.

Tried the first two episodes of Lesson in Chemistry on Apple+ and, um, as the US Supreme Court has ruled, okay to obtain by other means if for personal, non-commercial use cough...



It was a best selling novel, and I'd read the show was quite high in production values, with an excellent performance by Brie Lawson as a young chemist working in a 1950's lab as the only female, trying to prove she can do as well as everyone else.



Eventually, she rises about it all and becomes a popular host of a TV cooking show later. As expected, lots of sexism, given the time period, and had a Mad Men level of detail/vibe/production values , so highly accurate to say the least.

That said, both the first two episodes had flashback to when she was (potentially) sexually assaulted and a couple more similar situations in the real-time segments. Really bummed to see that, and I'm sure they won't be the last. I might give it a few more tires, and Brie does a great job acting, but if the violence (even implied) continues, I'm out.

This is fairly good--funny and horrific at the same time!

An intense film much like a bad acid trip. Not for kids or casual watching on hallucinogens.
Plot is basic slow or repetitive at times.

A new season of Slow Horses is going on apple tv now. It gets real good real fast.

I've been watching Law and Order, and NYPD Blue from the beginning. Seeing NYC before it was gentrified.

[JackDidley]

I started on The Dropout last night. About Elizabeth Holmes/Theranos. Pretty good so far.

[Chocaholic]

Just started The Manifest. Similar premise to Lost. First two episodes are quite good. Also…loved Fauda. Highly recommended (Netflix). Hit and Run was great also.

[KevinTodd]

This is brilliant, especially for those of you that are Edgar Allan Poe fans.....

[Scott Watkins]

"FISK" season 2 on the Netflix is quite funny.

[Steve Carlton]

I like the goofy Australian humor. Her dog is cool, too.
