Quick synopsis" Evil empire wants to take over little farmer village, like it matters. Hero (ex soldier form evil empire) leaves to get help. "Will you help me? "OK" now they are 3. Flies to other planet.. Will you help me? "sure I got nothign else to do" -> repeat on other planet" Will you help me?" " Oh why not"
Who signs off on crap like that ? There's decent actors, nice CGI, write a minimum of a story please !!!

Slow horses is good, as ever...
I'm not hating the 4th season of For all mankind, unions and all...
Invasion on apple TV is slow but relatively clever and different...

Rebel Moon was a mixed bag for me, but so far I’m liking the director’s cut a lot better. I couldn’t understand why the Anthony Hopkins voiced Jimmy was used so sparingly. This has been improved in the R-rated DCs.

Both good shows but Homicide LOTS had a super cast and story lines.

Pretty sure it’s not.

DVD, I tried looking if it’s streamed but no luck. I bought all 7 seasons at a local vintage store.

Good to know, thanks. We can’t get Peacock in Canada, maybe if we had a vpn but that’s another thread

The Office. I tried to watch this when it first aired and thought it sucked. Tonight I decided to try again. Tried 3 episodes. Still sucked. Gave them 10 minutes each.

The Patient - different and good acting. We aren't to the end yet.

I don't have the DVD set, but I know I've seen every episodes at least twice.....and many more than that!

I remember the one (I think there was 2) with Tom Selleck. And the two-parter with Strother Martin: "The Trees, the Bees and T.T. Flowers"...one of my favs....

We have a TV station (ME-TV) that airs oldie but goodie TV shows and TRF was one of them they aired every weekday at Noon. My routine was to come home to watch and have lunch and watch them. At some point they'll rotate to another series. Like The Big Valley and Hawaii Five-O.

Was catching some of Garner's two "Support your local....." movies last night on GRIT and it reminded me of why Garner will always be one of my fav. actors.

The Tom Selleck episodes were great. I remember the glovebox door on his Eldorado kept coming loose and landing on Rockford's shins.

There was another episode where the creep was wearing mechanic's overalls and his name was "Ludes."
