Lupin - 4/10

Would be 7/10 if it was only the first ep but the writing is horrible.

First five eps are out on netflix.

I started watching this last night, shut it off after 15 minutes.

WandaVision

It’s starting to look more like you’re average Marvel product...

I thought episode 4 was excellent - some context, Kat Dennings, dead Vision...

[spoiler]Yeah, it looks to be pretty obvious that Wanda has created this Westview paradise to cope with the loss of Vision. I just hope there’s more substance than that...[/spoiler]

Watched the first two episodes of wandavision. All hype, no plot. It may have a twist eventually but I don't care.
Started re-watching The Magicians on Netflix instead.

Dude I’m not saying it’s an amazing show, but it’s obvious in the first episode there is more than meets the eye. You give up pretty easily...

It's been a while since I watched any Marvel, and the wife was wondering about starting Wandavision too. Would you guys recommend a rewatch/recap of a movie or two before jumping in or does it lead you into the characters a bit?

It’s hard to say being only 4 episodes in. But you do need to have some knowledge of at least Avengers Infinity War and Endgame. There are some major plot points that would be helpful to understand what’s going on...

I have very little patience for shows that string you along on the vague promise that something interesting will happen... maybe in the season finale? Maybe next season? In the mean time, tune in next week for another boring "ironic" send-up of classic TV sitcoms! With Easter eggs!

Made it to about halfway of the second episode of Wanda Vision. To that point had to be the worst viewing.

Talking WandaVision:

[spoiler]Ok, the ending of episode 5 confused the fuck out of me. But only because of the actor playing Pietro. This guy played Peter/Quicksilver in the X-men movies. But now he’s playing Pietro? Are they the same character? Why didn’t they use the same actor they had in Ultron? The fuck is going on?[/spoiler]

EDIT: Finished all seasons/episodes. Excellent viewing

Can anyone recommend or give comment on the TV series Schitt's Creek please? Someone suggested it is worth watching

I haven't watched it but everyone I've spoken to that has seem to have good things to say about it.

I've found Schitt's Creek but haven't started viewing as yet.

However I stumbled upon and oldie, a TV series of just 17 episodes called The Prisoner starring Patrick McGoohan. I remember it was a favourite of my parents. The first episode is available on YouTube and I think I found the others....

I've caught several episodes while my wife was watching it. Not the best thing I've ever seen, but it was pretty ok. Definitely worth checking out to see if it's your kind of thing. Wasn't really mine, but not every show is for everybody.

WandaVision was the slow burn I thought it might be...lovely stuff

Trawling through YouTube as you do, I stumbled on a "Snopes' link to an item Did Santiago Flight 513 Disappear in 1954 Only to Land in 1989? which led me to a Twilight Zone episode called Twilight Zone Flight 33

Edit: The Mrs asked how I got to the Twilight Zone and I tried to explain, one minute I am watching a Clint Eastwood classic, The Outlaw Josey Wales from 1976 and then

Yeah, I’m enjoying it...

Harrow

An Australian TV series, season 3 just commenced
Like I said last, there's a few twists you will find interesting.

Lol @ the people who gave up on WandaVision early doors

I'm still watching WV. It had a couple good episodes where Things Happened... last episode was back to weird circular exposition.
