    I love Mindhunter. I understand the slow start critique, but the acting and storytelling are top notch (IMO).

    Cameron Britton deserved some kind of award for playing Ed Kemper in season one.

    i'll give it time. Just a little too much gibber gabber in episode 1 and a few times, audience and tone sounded like the people in his class weren't aware of anything. The scene where they are role playing with classmates turned into time filler.

    Mindhunter is excellent.

    I didn’t appreciate how terrific it was until I saw actual interview footage of Ed Kemper.

    Amazing, really.

    If it’s a great story, expertly produced and capably acted, it can go on forever, as far as I’m concerned.

    I like when characters have the dimensional room to grow and reflect and choose, and let the story sort of naturally occur, even if it meanders.

    I may give it another chance. Netflix just has so many bad shows it’s sometimes hard to not make assumptions.

    Mindhunter is absolutely worth the time it takes for the show to get going.

    I still need to watch season 2.

    ISO a good show for the wife and I to watch. We're struggling to find one. Netflix or Amazon.

    Mindhunter is really, really good.

    Have heard good things about Yellowstone, but haven’t yet watched.

    What are y’all into? Comedy? Documentary? Horror?

    “I’m sorry” is great. Probably one of my favorite shows right now.

    “Living with Yourself” is different but entertaining enough.

    “Working Moms” is really good too.

    History documentaries, especially WWI and WWII. Horror, neo-noir, alternative history, and period pieces.

    The Man in the High Castle is really well done.

    I’m Sorry, as long as the humor isn’t too far for you guys. Working moms maybe a bit calmed down. If you liked Working Moms then The Letdown would be good. Catastrophe is also a little in this vein. Fleabag is different than these but similar type of humor.

    My wife will actually watch Jack Ryan with me.

    Did you guys watch Ozarks? What about Justified?

    good girls?

    She's watched Hightower. We've watched nothing else.

    Working Moms and The Letdown are good. Schitt’s Creek is another good comedy.

    Mindhunter and Ozark.

    The Office on BBC is way, way, too often overlooked for how great it is.
