i think maybe i underrate the Sopranos because there were some tough hauls watching it when it aired. i'll still say the Wire's fourth season is better than any single Sopranos season, but the latter's episode peaks are just monumental.

I think The Wire is a better series - I'm a sucker for shows that showcase a city as a character the way The Wire treated Baltimore.
Pinebarrens is probably the best television episode ever by a longshot, though.

I travel to northern NJ very regularly, and Sopranos definitely represented the area perfectly. Not trying to take away from The Wire/Baltimore, just saying Sopranos excelled in that regard as well.

Finished The Boys. I think there were times where they were going for shock value for the sake of shock value, and they constantly forced you to accept ridiculous far fetched scenarios (outside of the superhero stuff, of course). With that said, they ended the first season well, and there was enough entertainment value overall that I'll probably watch the next season.

I thought they set up next season well, even if it was somewhat predictable.

Succession was great as usual, but I didn't like how they ended the episode. It was necessary to move the plot along though, I suppose.

So with the baby around we're able to catch up on so much TV that we're running out of shows to watch. My wife gets 12 weeks of maternity leave and we're already on week 5.
Caught up on Succession. Brian Cox is a beast, so glad he's got this show to really evolve as a villain b/c he's been one of my favorites for awhile now.
Started the Righteous Gemstones, only done with E1 but was iffy on it till the end of the episode and we're gonna continue with it.

I just got to episode 4 of the first season of Succession. It's been a slow go. I know it's supposed to improve from here on out, though.

i also just caught up on Succession, I hadnt watched the last two episodes.
Did Kendall fuck up? He kind of made the thing happen. Granted it was a very messy and self deprecating way to get there, but he got there

I thought that was funny that he shat the bed since symbolically out of all the kids he did the best. I am still really curious where they're going with him this season. He's very much taken the backseat but we know him to be super ambitious and a schemer so I can't help but wonder he has some sort of end game here. Also kinda disappointed that they dropped the whole Logan is getting old and losing his mind bit completely.

Has anyone watched Derry Girls on Netflix? My girfriend mentioned that as a show we should potentially watch.

Loved the most recent Righteous Gemstones episode. Walton Goggins is so perfect as Baby Billy.

Started watching the new Ken Burns Country Music doc last night. First episode picks up considerably once they start focusing in on the Carter family and Jimmie Rodgers. The Rodgers story was especially interesting - I knew his name but nothing about his life.
