Re: TV Thread - beware, [expletive] can get spoilery
yep, last episode was kind of slow and a little bit of a let down, but the season on a whole was very good I thought...much better than season 2 (obviously)heyzeus wrote:Anyone else just finish Season 3 of True Detective?
Mahershala Ali was amazing, and I'd never thought I say it, but Stephen Dorff was as well
the 2 leads in this season were the best of any season IMO...even better than McConaughey and Harrelson. McConaughey's rambling got old after awhile, but Ali and Dorff were on point every episode.
but overall, season 1 was a better season than 3 IMO

Anyone watch 'Leaving Neverland' the HBO doc of two guys that Michael Jackson abused and how their life progressed.
Very difficult to watch obviously. The topic is extremely horrific.

Crashing on HBO continues to be a easy show to watch. I think season 3 is the best yet.
Also on HBO, High Maintenance continues to be a strong favorite of mine and one of the most underrated shows on TV. That said, I think the current season 3 is a bit weaker than seasons 1 & 2, but it's still better than just about everything else on TV.

I don't think you can blame the kids because they were effectively brainwashed by Jackson, like a child sent to religious boot camp. Jackson was messianic in the 80s and 90s, a god. A superstar like we don't have superstars anymore. They revered him. He convinced them that he loved them, and they loved him. He told them: If you tell, bad things will happen. They were basically brainwashed to the point that they didn't understand until they were adults and had kids of their own that it's not right to do that to a child, and their lives fell apart.AWvsCBsteeeerike3 wrote:Anyone watch 'Leaving Neverland' the HBO doc of two guys that Michael Jackson abused and how their life progressed.

The parents were groomed and brainwashed by him as well. However, as adults? As people whose job in life is to protect their kids? I'm not a parent but I can't imagine allowing my child--male or female--to sleep in a bed with an adult, including an aunt or uncle. It's not healthy.
I thought the movie was a great--though overlong--breakdown of how sexual abuse happens, from the grooming and gaining of trust and love through the bitter end. The movie was more that than a condemnation of Jackson, he just happens to be the hanger from which the clothing of the story is hung.
