Im on ep 8 of the final season of Sex Education. I think its ok but not that great. There's just too much going on in terms of all the characters and storylines. It also feels like the show is trying extra hard to be as raunchy and explicit as possible for no reason other than for shock value.

I don't like shows like this or Euphoria. Feels weird watching shows where "teens" are put in such so many sexual scenarios. Yes, teens irl be fucking but sex scenes a[color=var(--input-txt-color)]re already kind of cringe - it's even worse when you it's fake under aged teens having sex.[/color]

The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar is absolutely amazing and I cannot wait for the other Roald Dahl shorts Wes Anderson plans to make. 

I can't compare it to the book I haven't read but it's very good as someone who's only access to Dahl stories have been through the eyes of Wes Anderson.

Well that sucks. I enjoyed the other seasons. 

lion documentaries because they're basically mob films but animals

I'm still watching Ray Donovan. On season 3. It's not a great show, but I like it. Not every scene works, but some arcs are extremely well done.

I just finished it. It was inconsistent and lacked focus, but It had many heartfelt moments and I liked how most of the characters' storylines wrapped up.

I thought that show was alright. I don't think I watched the 3rd season, just the first 2.

It's good filler tv. It can be fun and gritty, but it doesn't need 100% of your attention like Breaking Bad or The Wire. So, I'll text n shit while watching it.

Yeah. It has a lot of cool ideas and I definitely dig the characters. However, it could move faster. You?

Yeah agreed. Though if I was able to binge the full season I probably wouldn't feel that way. I'm just mainly intrigued how to moves forward, I don't really care about the kids. Not sure where the soldiers been the last few episodes, assuming they're captured

It's weird they're making that bully kid and Casper's bae kinda flirt.

The Japanese chick has had the best arc. 

Chucky in the god damn whitehouse :D I know nobody here watches this show, but it still manages to be pleasantly surprising
