wiffleball 4,643 Posted November 15, 2018 I don't care what anybody says here. That's a damn good show. Watched it again last night. To be able to juggle three different timelines all in the same show and make it seamless? Really well done. Hell, it is so far ahead of anything else on broadcast television it's not even close. one of my pet peeves in a lot of these shows these days is the writers can't be bothered to remember that certain character wasn't even in the same room when a certain conversation occurred. And these guys pull off multiple storylines in multiple generations and timelines without a hitch. How this thing hasn't won a ton of awards is beyond me. speaking of which, the same should be said for Freddie Highmore in the good doctor. Damn, kid is a very very good actor.

vuduchile 1,941 Posted November 15, 2018 Wife, kids and I watched the first season, but it just got to overly melodramatic for us, so we never went back to it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wiffleball 4,643 Posted November 15, 2018 Like I said, from a technical writing and Direction standpoint, I don't think we've ever seen anything like this on TV. fear it may be wasted on the population that thinks the big bang theory is akin to Shakespeare + only not as boring..

wiffleball 4,643 Posted November 15, 2018 Okay, opening it up: New Magnum PI: really, just like a handful of other CBS shows. Like Hawaii Five-O, MacGyver, Swat, Etc. It's fine, but the characters aren't exactly captivating and the story lines are cliched at best. Tho, props to the new Higgins. The Rookie; so far, not disappointed. Nathan Fillion is hugely bankable. Hugely likable with men and women. Good idea to have a solid cast around him with their own storylines. They're keeping Fillion on a short leash. But there are hints of potential. Mr. In-between. What is a really quirky show. Interesting in a limited run. Very weird ending. But if you're looking for a short binge-watch? This one's pretty good. I think it's only like 6 episodes anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

supermike80 1,286 Posted November 16, 2018 I got sick of how it seemed they wanted to make the audience cry in every episode. Really bothered me so I let the wife watch it by herself. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vince44 202 Posted January 1, 2019 This Is Us- Season 3 Jack's story about Vietnam and his brother Nick is excellent. The writers of this show deserve all the awards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
