Not sure whether this goes in TVs or movies, but they are made for TV so..
last night i watched the "30 for 30" Deion's Double Play about the time he played 2 MLB games and an NFL game in a 24 hour window, including two on the same day (he didn't actually get to play in the baseball game though, only suited up).
I had forgotten what a phenom of an athlete Sanders was. NFL Hall of Fame player, two super bowls, played cornerback, but also took the kick return duties. And at the same time played professional baseball. In his only World Series he was the Braves' best player, hitting .533!! That's actually insane.
from wiki "Sanders is the only man to play in both a Super Bowl and a World Series, to hit an MLB home run and score an NFL touchdown in the same week, and to have both a reception and an interception in the Super Bowl. He is one of two players to score an NFL touchdown six different ways (interception return, punt return, kickoff return, receiving, rushing, and fumble recovery)"
It's a cool sports story about an pretty incredible sporting feat. He's still Primetime, he still looks fit enough to play sport too.
Don’t follow those sports but that guy sounds similar to Bo Jackson, if he’s on that show I’d be keen to see it . I listened to him on a podcast talking last year , very cool .

Due to the fact so many people I know have watched and are talking about S2 of You I decided to watch S1. It's an interesting show which I think I like now that I'm a few eps in. Pretty dark, which I didn't get expect from watching the previews they have flashing up on Netflix.
Bonus points, has this chick is a supporting role:

Anyone read the first letter on each line?
Yes, wondered what the hell you were doing with the capitals (didn't figure you were the poetic type), then got it.
I'm not, but CARLA GUGINO

Watched S1 of Barry, pretty good.
BArry (Hader) is just awkward, really liked NoHo Hank (was also good in Gotham) and Gene (Henry Winkler)

The Messiah, Netflix.
Few episodes left to check out but hooked so far. Definitely recommend.

Seriously is anybody watching Jett? It's bloody good.
But fuck me, just watched episode 5 I think. Pretty sure my brain short circuited. Let's just say Daisy likes Nina Simone.
I'm really going to have to watch that
Finished the Witcher last night. And now i have to wait ages for Season 2. not cool. That was a great last line to finish a season on

I watched the show, and mentioned enjoying it, when it was aired last year. @mariner4life's Carla Gugino alert went off.
I'm catching up on this thread but I only watched Watchmen and The Expanse before Xmas and nothing while away for 2 weeks. I've started on S2 of Jack Ryan this week.

This seems the best thread to write this....
I swear if that latest Trivago ad where the old bitch complains she’s paying more for her room then the hot bitch keeps playing over and over and over I’ll I’ll I’ll.... I’ll do something!!
THIS - times much.
I'm just in NZ for the summer, but within a week I'd noticed this... the same very small number of ads just being repeated over, and over, and over again. That trivago bitch - often twice in the same ads break.
And Sky - what the fuck? I thought one paid for Sky, so that one could avoid ads. Watching some of those Sky sports channels - there were literally more ads on there than what I've seen on Free-To-Air.
But then - the only time I ever see broadcast TV is when in NZ, staying with friends/family. Perhaps it's just as bad in other countries? -

It's the same here in Aussie, pay TV. When they first started up Pay TV in Aus with Foxtel and the old but now defunct Optus Vision, initially they had minimal ads, mostly just advertising for their own content.
Now, and yes we have Foxtel, you are inundated with more ads than you get on free to air TV. It's so annoying that you pay through the nose for the content yet continually subjected to annoying ads like the Trivago ad!

@Virgil my mother-in-law is over from the UK and she even commented on that ad...
I like the Trivago girl, but that ad is annoying AF, let alone the absurd frequency of it.
Been watching The Capture, which is a BBC drama centred on a former SOldier acquitted from war crimes with footage on one of the other soldiers body-cams, only to be the centre of a kidnap investigation of his lawyer, with compelling CCTV footage of him in the act, that he claims was fake.
Is pretty decent, moving along at a nice pace, lots of threads, only 6 part series, 2 to go.
