I have decided that the new Clarice series is a flaming turd.

I have given it a fair test of three episodes.

Nothing impressive about it at all.

I have them saved but havent watched any yet, is it dealing with Buffalo Bill?

We recently rewatched the Silence of the Lambs coincidentally before the series was announced. I dismissed it— just no way it could compare with that masterpiece.

The Sinner is pretty good for those that like crime drama. 3 seasons so far and looks like they are following a Detective played by Bill Pullman. Ge has some strange fantasies that Im not really sure why they added but he does a good job with his role. Im just into season 2 and its looking like they solve one crime a season.

Pullman’s intense acting carries that show.

Even that was starting to wear a bit though towards the end of 2.

No. It is post-Silence of the Lambs. They can't even speak about Lector because of licensing.

Yeah. I liked seasons 1 and 2 but the 3rd was a little slow.

Lector is the only interesting character in the entire franchise.

Lector is the only interesting character in the entire franchise.

And Clarice is a bore without him.

Well damn, that sounds awful. Ffs sake why couldn't they have just brought back Hannibal

Been watching a docuseries called "The Real Mad Men of Advertising" on Amazon.

Highly recommend if you liked the show.

They are still trying.

This was just CBS taking their shot. And it is a real air ball.

That would be friggin awesome, we needed at least one more season of Mikkelsen's Hannibal. That show was just so well done

I would love a movie or mini-series with it. It was so good.

It sounds like Fuller wants to do it, Mikkelsen too.

That is the kind of thing we need right now.

We are in an era of fucking shitty TV shows and movies.

There really are no consequences to making a piece of shit TV show or movie anymore it seems.

Hopefully with all the streaming services putting out original content now they might can find a backer. I would absolutely pay to watch more Hannibal

They have had their shot over the past few years.

It is just frustrating because you see pivotal people in the series willing to make it happen and yet it doesn't.

I will say this, "Clarice" is woke.

A new Hannibal might struggle in this culture.

I just think we are destined to have shitty TV shows for a while.

Networks are going to pander and so are the streaming services.

It is what group can I suck up to next.

Queens Gambit on Netflix- surprisingly good series. Actually had me binge watching a series about chess

Great series.

Just now started Ozark and holy shit I'm kicking my own ass for not starting it sooner. This is awesome.

Yeah, I was a late starter, too. Started it only a few months ago. Binge watched the shit out of it. It's very good.
