Quoted from John_I:Hard to believe anyone could recommend White Lotus. I've seen it pushed on Max and finally gave it a try. This is up there with the worst shows I have ever seen. Characters, plot, dialog and acting are all ghastly.
Last of Us is also dreadful. I wanted to like the Peripheral, but it just doesn't click with me. The new Negan/Maggie Walking Dead show is no surprise downright awful.
Shows I do recommend:
True Detective Season 1. Seriously if you haven't seen it, just do it.
Barry. All seasons. Just a great show, so funny.
Reacher. This show is fun to watch. Much better than the movies.
Jack Ryan. Final season just wrapped up. Good solid show.
Terminal List is good action fun.
Outlaws. Watched it for Christopher Walken and ended up liking it!
Bosch. Even the new watered down cast Bosch Legacy show is good.
I agree about the Negan/Maggie show, not much happening. They ran out of ideas a long time ago. The zombies don't change so they just keep creating new enemies. Just milking the cow now. When the whole "Whisperers" storyline began, I remember the mid-season finale (don't get me started on THAT shit) where they were hiding in a ditch as a horde of walkers went by, and you heard the zombies saying "they cant be far" and stuff, and I though "Oh man, how cool, the zombies are starting to evolve, they can do a lot with that...", and it just turned out to be yet another human community to fight (same as the Governor, same as whoever). Rinse and repeat ad nauseum.
The preview I saw of the new Darryl spin off reminds me of Easy Rider, he's just traveling around lookin' for 'Merica.
Reacher: The books are even better.
Jack Ryan: I can't see that guy without think of him from The Office. He just has a kind of dopey, friendly guy next door look. Again, the books are probably the best.
The Peripheral - Big sci fi fan but it didn't clicke w me.
