March 7Mar 7 comment_747117 Just finished binge watching Boardwalk Empire. Little darker series than The Sopranos. They kill most of the main characters off. I thought the plot twist at the end with Tommy Darmody killing Nucky Thompson was brilliant. The only character I was sad to see him go with his demise was John Harrow, the crook who wore a mask to hide his half blown off face suffered during WW1. His character really grew on me as the series went on. Now watching Billions Season 1. Taking a bit longer to get into it like BE. But I intend to watch it all.

If you can understand 25% of the references the characters throw out you’ll like it.

March 8Mar 8 comment_747213 well it took me a little more than a year but I have finished The Crown.....Ritz broke my heart more than Sleep Dearie Sleep did, watching Margaret deteriorate like that (it was like losing a fun auntie). Kind of makes me glad they stopped before the 7/7 attacks that happened a few months after Charles's wedding to Camilla. Shame they didn't cover Edward's wedding (mostly just so we could see the Queen mum dance at that age). oh btw all that sympathy I had for Mohammed Al-Fayed in season 5...yeah not so much in season 6 (you didn't have to push Dodi into Diana you know) Edited March 9Mar 9 by iHeart

A lot of anger out there for Blue Bloods cancellation & fans took it out on the sacrificial lamb that replaced it.

March 12Mar 12 comment_747408 Dammit Rex you're not supposed to emotionally scar me like that, that is the 911's universes job (nothing happened to the dog onscreen they had to write around Reardon's illness which was one of the contributing factors to the season being cut short and well I would have put Hudson in a coma instead of what we did get) Edited March 12Mar 12 by iHeart

SWAT was supposed to keep former BB viewers happy as it was a police procedural but there's no way fans were ever going to watch it. CBS sacrificed that show. The only CBS show that would ever work in that time slot would be if the network used that new BB sinoff tv series with Danny Reagan (Donnie Wahlberg) as a replacement in the fall.

I think if a show lasts 15 years we cant be angry over it ending IMHO. In other tv news... https://deadline.com/2025/03/big-bang-spinoff-title-stuart-fails-to-save-the-universe-1236330498/

He's a good one to spin off, if they have to go that route. And that SNL lineup actually looks pretty good. Jack Black and Jon Hamm are proven winners, and I'm VERY excited to see what Elton and Carlisle do... Edited March 19Mar 19 by Noeller

The fans took it out on SWAT. When I heard BB was cancelled last year & never coming back, I immediately stopped watching. I moved on. Never saw the final half season or series finale. Didn't care. I sure wasn't going to watch SWAT. Judging by the reaction on social media, I wasn't the only one. I'll watch the new Danny Reagan spinoff out of curiosity.

March 22Mar 22 comment_747770 Just started watching The Pitt. If it's portrayal of emergency rooms in the US is even remotely accurate all of the private health care "grass is greener" folks should be forced to watch it in its entirety.
March 23Mar 23 comment_747792 I found the 4 part series Adolescence to be a great watch. Each episode was filmed in one take which made for it to seem like you are there. What is interesting is they shot each episode twice a day for 5 days. Hopefully they renew the series with new story lines.
