Bulletproof. Looked like a cheap knock off of Bad Boys and that's exactly what it is.

Upcoming TV shows, The Rookie starring Nathan FILLION looks really good(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9K06dCP-lc), also Manifest from NBC, the story sounds familiar (the 4400) but it looks different (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhKmfJrnrw0).. also the REBOOT of Magnum P.I looks interesting though the male lead is not that great an actor (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DopL6LdM-zg)..

:lol: That Magnum trailer was fcuking horrible!!! (I have to say, though, that the guy playing Rick is a perfect casting choice. I remember him from Happy Endings.)

After giving Lethal Weapon a chance and actually liking it, I could have seen myself giving a rebooted Magnum a go if it was exactly the same and the casting was spot on. The casting already looks bad - that scene introducing the buddies looked like a bad student film! - and Magnum was not an action show. It was a silly but charming detective show that was more about characters than plot.

Anyone watch Timeless? The last scene in the finale suggests things are going to get ramped up a notch in the next season.

Riggs or rather the actor playing him got the boot.

Jessica Jones season 2 is proving to be a bit of a struggle. Really drawn out and boring threads given far too much time. Shame. First season was a cracker.

I know, it's very much a turn your brain off show. But even saying that the 3rd season was difficult to get through.

Chloe Bennet helped me get through boring seasons - although TBH, I only found the first one, pre-winter soldier to be the hard one to get through.

I plowed through all 7 seasons of Parks and Rec over the last three weeks. What a treat of a show. Will probably go through Community next.

Wasn't shit, just different. They may have got rid of Chevy Chase but they didn't get rid of Glover and the woman whose name escapes me, they had other jobs to go to.

Not sure if anyone has bothered with Netflix's Lemony Snicket's: A series of unfortunate events. It's pretty damned good in a family fun kind of way with a dark side. Stunning costumes and characters.

Chase was a toxic presence from all accounts. He had to go. Yvette Nicole-Brown's father has Alzheimer's and she didn't want to be committed to the 18 hours days they regularly pulled to shoot the series in order to be able to spend more time with time. She's kept working after she left but she spends a lot less time on set in her recent shows. Donald Glover was ready to move on and hadn't loved being there for a while. His leaving was because he just didn't think he could give his best anymore.

I actually thought the Hickey character brought in to replace Pierce was an apt choice. And Frankly in season 6 brought some of the zaniness back to the show.

What do you think of Brooklyn Nine Nine? There's a lot of very similar elements to that of Parks and Rec. in it's DNA.

It's awesome (I complained about Fox cancelling it earlier in the thread), I like it more than Parks and Rec. The Good Place is another one by Mike Shur that's good as well.

I agree. Didn't see your previous post but couldn't believe the outcry after it's cancellation. Finished watching the now season finale about 40 minutes ago. Really enjoyed it. Looking for forward to season 6 on NBC.
