I watched the entire series in one day. Granted I was bedridden that day.

Interesting. I didn't have that response at all. Are you just tired of the same old stuff, or do you think it's gotten worse?

If you didn't get to Titus in the recording studio, I'd suggest firing it back up.
I did catch Titus in the recording studio. That was good.

I don't know why this season is grating on me. I hate when comedies do stupid musical numbers, so I hated that episode. A lot of the jokes feel like they have forced landings. Just not enjoying it much.

Here are my problems with Netflix shows:

Inhaling a season in three days after it drops makes me feel like I'm sinning.

It also means when the new season finally cones around I'll have to ask 'what happened to that one guy?' or 'who is that again?'

Because I'm always inhaling something and my time has constraints, I don't have time to rewatch to prevent those questions.

Season 3 of Narcos is really good. Arguably the best season thus far.

The few minutes I caught weren't funny at all. I figured it would be full goofball. But my big takeaway was how rip-offy the music was from TNG.

Yeah...the jokes were the usual MacFarlane cheese; sure it can be funny here and there but I don't see it sustaining much success. And the TNG ripoff was very obvious.

The Ken Burns Vietnam War series starts on Sunday.

I guess I will dvr and watch eventually. My interest in US -related history is not near what it once was.
