I need to hurry. Trying to finish the first book before the new season and have like 50 pages left. For those who read spy novels I'd recommend. A bit slow to start and heavy on description but once the action gets moving it's a page turner as much as the show is binge worthy.

I liked the first book. I've read about three of them now, though, and I don't feel like they have much growth in them. It feels like the same basic story over and over. Kind of gave up on them.

Through VidAngel, I started watching these from my various streaming providers:

Recommended:
  • The Gentlemen - odd but really enjoying
  • Silo - really an interesting show, easily one of my favorites now
  • Severance - really interesting, season two was sort of a let down, but I'm looking to see what's next
  • Reacher - Each season has been less than the prior. First season was easily the best, this last season, characters were less likable and less believable. But overall still enjoyable.
  • Foundation - glad I have VidAngel, enjoyable enough without all the trash.
  • Dark Matter - slow but interesting so far, only a few episodes in
  • Fallout - masterpiece
  • Monarch - Legacy of Monsters - too slow, but I like it well enough.
As for VidAngel, I'm not a prude exactly, but I do enjoy it filtering the garbage out, and I rarely feel like I am missing anything of import. Highly recommend.

My brother in law said the same thing. I figured I'd read the first and then any he recommends. He's been steadfast in reading each book before the season despite not finding any as fun as the first read.

I have been pleasantly surprised by Hawk on NF...Will Ferrell's golf comedy. Was expecting it to be a flop, but it is pretty good classic Will Ferrell.

Dialogue in the Gentlemen is very good. Good sexual tension. Hero now being *******... All the makings of a good show. Highly recommend. My wife watches with me and she hates crime violence stuff.

I've only watched a few episodes - I'm really liking it. Reminds me of Snatch, which was excellent as well - Gentlemen is just slower due to it being a TV series.

Like Taylor Sheridan, anything Guy Ritchie touches is going to be pretty good

Yeah, I agree. Bobby Glass has to be one of the best characters on TV.

Prime Video canceled the action thriller series Countdown after one season, meaning Season 2 will not happen. Amazon decided not to renew the show due to low international viewership despite its domestic popularity, leaving the first season's major cliffhanger unresolved

Our own Bear Derek Haas was the creator and a Dallas kid, Jensen Eckles was the star.
