Fatman (2020)
Welcome back, Mel
A great return vehicle for Mel Gibson in a Xmas story for our times. IMDB needs to revise their 5.9 rating...this is a solid 7.5 atleast. Watch this with zero expectations and you won't be disappointed.
Ted Lasso (2020)
Perfection
Comedy with a touch of intimate drama. Let's hope they can keep it going for S2.
Flack (2019)
Season 1 phenomenal; Season 2 off the rails
Season 1 is incredible : writing, acting...binged it in an afternoon. Season 2 gets bogged down with mundane and predictable screwed up childhood stories. Of course people like this are going to have had terrible childhoods. The writers should have given the audience more credit and focused more on the weekly storylines for entertainment.
Sun Records (2017)
Good beginnings but fizzles out
Sun Records had a strong start - I loved the 1st episode with all the promise it brought with it. But by the 2nd episode it became clear the focus would be on the Sun Records management team. We're now up to #5 and I don't even know if I'll tune in - had they maintained the focus on the music and musicians it could have maintained its beginning charm. Now it's just barely watchable.
Patriot (2015)
The Brink on downers
Patriot is a dark comedy without the repartee of The Brink and because of the absence of the repartee it's more enjoyable - but not nearly as laughable. But it is fun in its own way and the cast - full of lots of familiar faces - executes their lines with solemnity. It took about 20 minutes to get into the pilot - I almost gave up but then voila! The show works its magic with every scene and after watching it the second time I was surprised by how much I missed the 1st time through. It's slow moving - mellow - Scotch drinkers will love it; Bud Lite imbibers won't be able to stick with it. Nothing goes as planned, everything goes wrong, and from there it just gets worse. Loved it!
Breakout Kings (2011)
It's got potential
The premise of the show alone compelled me to watch it. I like the cons and find the profiler very entertaining. But the Domenick Lombardozzi character has to be softened up or written out - there is virtually nothing likable about the guy. The leader of the outfit has been given the most predictable lines of anyone and he's an almost totally useless character. They treat the cons like sh#t while asking for their help - I would think there'd be a little more compassion for them considering none of them are in for violent crimes. The US gov't has long acquired crooks to better their work force...and it's not a bad notion. This show could be developed into something a lot more than just crushing the cons and expecting the audience to feel good about it. A good premise...bad writing and mis-casting.
