Mike Birbiglia's new standup is phenomenal. It has him neck and neck with Louis C.K. as my favorite living comedian.

Santa Clarita Diet on Netflix. Pretty funny comedy with Drew Barrymore, Timothy Olyphant and the boy from Vacation. It's a little twisted and different, almost has the feel of Dexter but a lot lighter. I'd recommend.

Edit- Binged all 10 episodes of season 1. It's definitely worth a look. But I retract the Dexter comparison. There is only one small aspect that reminds of that. This is very light comedy all the way, mostly poking fun at affluent suburban life with a funny twist on the zombie genre. Netflix Orignals is doing a much better job than the big networks imo. Looking forward to season 2.

I watched it as well. Good stuff!
Next up is "The Fall."

Seems pretty comparable to the Killing.

My wife watched that over the past week. She's been buzzing about it. I'll have to check it out myself.

The Fall

The first two seasons of the Fall are amazing the third lacks a little. But definitely recommend!

 
Stay away from Bonnie and Clyde movie (2013). Inaccurate big time ...... I hated it. At least B&C (1967 version) was somewhat accurate.

Just watched a documentary on Hulu called "Dirty Wars". It is about uncovering secret ops and cover-ups in the Middle East and surrounding countries. Really sheds a different light on Obama and what the President is capable of.

"He Never Died" is a pretty good movie. A little different though.

Just watched the pilot episode of Bosch from Amazon Prime. It's based off the Michael Connelly novels. I've never read the books but the first episode is really good. Not as dark as the first season of True Detective but has a lot of that feel to it.

The next season comes out next month! I started reading the books because of the Show.

I'm sure this has already been mentioned but Narcos is a really good series on Netflix. Been semi binging that one. Very interesting fact based account of Pablo Escobar and the Medellin drug cartel.

Not sure this has been mentioned but...

Is phenomenal. Obviously unrealistic, but I love that stuff. 6 episodes. Season 2 is this fall I believe. It's kinda along the same lines as Stranger Things.

 
Been re-watching GoT from the beginning. Can't believe all the little things I missed the first, and in some cases the second, time through. You guys that refuse to watch really should reconsider.
