First Season of Marvel: Agents of Shield

Pretty addicting. The production values alone are worth watching the show for. Silver screen material with a big-screen explosion budget. I like the integrated story theory with the Marvel universe though I have yet to see how they execute it. Gonna watch the corollary movies sometime before turning to season 2. The story is good, i mean it's pretty much pre-written with the comics that came out decades ago. One major problem is the acting, it's pretty terrible. Sometime I think, "meh, it's comic book campiness." But part of me really knows it's just bad acting. Asian lady is ok actress. Anytime it's turning me off they save themselves with a cool explosion so NBD.

7/10

Blitzed through this over the last month or so. It's a lot of content. It got really bad and there's a bunch of alt reality and time travel shit that really dragged it down. I did NOT watch all the Marvel films and other cinematic universe tie ins.

6/10 for the whole thing. Maybe seasons 1-4 or something are bingable.
 
You're the Worst - Wife is watching that, I'm not really paying attention but just enough to notice the sub-par acting and the horribly self-centered characters. I occasionally snort-LOL at snarky one-liners.

It sounds like something I'd come up with if I were to magically be tasked with writing a TV series. Not necessarily in a good way.

Murder on Middle Beach

HBO 4 part documentary.

we watched the first 3 episodes last night. Will finish the 90 minute Finale tonight

Connecticut Mom is murdered in 2010. The son, who is in school for film making, starts a documentary process of investigating the unsolved murder. Everyone in the Family is pretty much a suspect as we go along, there was all sorts of buried shadiness, Crime, drug and alcohol abuse, mental illness in the family.
