What Are You Watching/Binging/Streaming Now?
😁😁😁As if I'm not already looking forward to it enough! haha Sometimes it takes a while for a show to click for someone! And that's fine - if you stick with it, it can be hugely rewarding! Just look at THE NEXT GENERATION - Most people agree it's not until Seasons 4 or 5 that it really clicked!

It ain't easy But in the end you get more new tracks in a row! haha But I'm glad to hear the newer tracks are just as good. I continue to have a great feeling about this era; she is doing everything greatly so far. She looks wonderful!

Understandable! While FARSCAPE took a little time to build, I thought THE EXPANSE jumped right into it - albeit, I had no idea what was happening half the time lol Granted, the pace picked up significantly in Season 2. I remember S02E05 was phenomenal - also happens to be the end of the first novel. The trio of Chrisjen, Bobbie, and Spy Guy was amazing the moment it started in Season 2 and still loving it (and I've grown to like Bobbie more, grouchy little ho she is!). Amos is also a fave, and Holden is great to look at too lmao

Oh, I can't wait! And I'm super glad they picked it up. I definitely need to read the novels, too. I can't wait for Season 3! And I agree with your friend, it's best to start from the start! lol

Happy Birthday, @Taoboi !!! I am holding off on listening to Love Sensation and any other new songs until the album is out. I am ready for the entire experience!

HBO's Looking. A look back
I obviously watched it as it aired and really liked it. It was not without issues, but had a lot going for it. That being said, I do feel it needs to be rewatched so I see how I would feel about it now.

No. Sounds exciting haha. They're doing SUCH a great job. It's complex - which may have led to the low ratings and cancellation, but I am so glad Amazon picked it up. I LOVE the character interactions. I highly recommend if you can find it at your library. Just give it a few episodes to click.

🥰 I'm about to start Season 3 of THE EXPANSE. It's great. Have you seen FOR ALL MANKIND? I'm done with Season 1. It's so good - and I hear the next seasons are way better.

What Are You Watching/Binging/Streaming Now?
In my continued search for good sci-fi shows, I have been binging THE EXPANSE (lovely!) and just started FOR ALL MANKIND, which was NOT what I thought it would be but quickly draws you in and has been really good halfway through Season 1.

Sugababes - When the Rain Comes + LP9
Aaw, that's a shame. I wonder if the singles released so far did not do well enough to convince the record label for an album. Shook should've been a hit, if it wasn't!

Sugababes - When the Rain Comes + LP9
Shook is just so fantastic. I would love to see what LP they come up next.

Recommend Me A Primetime Soap Please!
Right. KNOTS is definitely the superior show in a lot of aspects, but DALLAS is a great introduction to the primetime soap world. LOL! DYNASTY's Seasons 4 and 5 (and to a lesser extent, Season 3) have very little narrative logic and become worse and worse. BUT the star power of the show had viewers mesmerized.
-
Recommend Me A Primetime Soap Please!
I have to disagree with everyone LOL The best introduction to the primetime soaps is DALLAS. There's a reason why it was popular and a ratings hit from the very beginning. It is entertaining, it has its tone and style set from the very beginning, and remains very consistent for 10 seasons/years - except it becomes better and better and matures into a truly compelling saga. While KL ultimately had a better whole-show run and a level of intelligence and complexity unmatched by the others (except occasionally), it also takes its time to grow into the excellent soap it became. I do not think it's a good starting point for a new viewer. DYNASTY also began with an excellent but very different and slow first season. Your mileage may vary. FALCON CREST is FALCON CREST. You cannot take it seriously. lol

Just did a rewatch of SIX FEET UNDER Season 1. Still great, if not even greater than the first time. Even at 20, I may have been a little young still to fully appreciate it. I also think it's fascinating how depressing I used to think it is but the comical elements really popped this time around.

The Madonna Thread
Love it! Fun, fresh, and, yes, young. They work nicely together. I wonder if it'll chart?? Madonna is delivering with this! And Stuart Price has been doing some FABULOUS work with Jessie Ware on her last 2-3 albums, so I'm hearing a touch of that in this too. Come on, CONFESSIONS!!

What Are You Watching/Binging/Streaming Now?
I can't wait! But, as hard as it's going to be, I'm going to wait until September so I can binge watch it all. I had to use someone else's account lol Surely you have a free trial you can take advantage of? If not on Apple TV itself, subscribe for a week through Prime? Those 20 episodes can definitely be devoured within a week! That's so interesting about the books. I definitely want to check them out eventually.

Just binged Seasons 1 and 2 of the incredible, nail-biting SILO. If you haven't seen it, it's a must!

Coronation Street: Discussion Thread
I do think his buzz cut is perhaps too severe a look on him. I saw a couple pics with longer hair and it made quite the difference lol Anyway, I'm mostly saddened because his manipulative, scheming antics motivated by his abandonment and anger is fairly juicy material to play but he's not delivering on that context at all.

The Madonna Thread
Thanks, Maxim. Love that for her! Still listening to I Feel So Free on repeat.

Coronation Street: Discussion Thread
You may be right, I'm just unspoiled lol I just need Megan to be one of them, and it motivates me to catch up faster. Glad to hear that about Carl cos he's spent all of January and February being turned into a maggot. He is very easy on the eyes though! Oh that's quite interesting. I'm OK with the story - it's not brilliantly written and Cartwright's acting depends mostly on his looks, but it's alright. I just wish it didn't feel so start and stop and that they built each beat more extensively.

Coronation Street: Discussion Thread
I'm still catching up but I truly wish Megan is the one who dies. Vile, disgusting, rapist bitch. It'll probably end up being Theo so Todd can suffer more when he gets arrested, and we'll have to suffer through MORE Megan, Carl, and Maggie.

The Madonna Thread
Sabrina is one of the biggest popstars in the world right now. As long as the song is good and they mesh well together, I'm all for it. I remember being so excited about Madonna and Britney together on a song but it wasn't the hit it ought to be (even though I personally love it). Can't be any worse than bringing JT on lol A good remix EP of CONFESSIONS II would be a must!

I simply cannot wait for the lead single from the album. If the album "intro" is so addictive, we just may be in for one of her best projects ever. DANCE bitches!

Madonna said DANCE! And she's delivering!!

I cannot wait for Sabrina/Madonna on the album!!! Yes Queen keep delivering! Darling, you simply must give REBEL HEART another chance. MDNA aged fast and horribly and MADAME X is... what it is, but REBEL HEART? Bops!
