What are you binge watching?

Guess what I am not binge watching

Watch the last episode that aired yesterday. Much closer to Star Trek the next generation than galaxy quest. I will admit they started losing me a couple episodes ago when one of their characters vomited glitter. But this last episode was very good.

Just started watching "Drops of God" on AppleTV. You need captions since it's in English, Japanese, and French. About a woman whose wine expert father dies, and to get her inheritance, she has to identify wines in a competition with his #1 student. She's allergic to alcohol is the first twist. Watched 4 shows already, very well done.

The Pitt is the best binge watching show of 2025 and 2026...

Most of the way through "Young Sherlock." Enjoying it, but it seems like Holmes really isn't clever enough in this. Doesn't seem to be displaying the superhuman powers of observation and deduction. Mostly he has photographic memory, so he can recreate a scene in his head and then figure out all the clues he missed the first time, which very un-Sherlock like.

Rooster (HBO) is pretty good through two episodes. It is a little comedy set at a college, quirky, but not too quirky. Steve Carrell and Charly Clive star. Carrell is always good, and Clive does a really good job with a part that could go off the rails easily.

Almost through Season 2 of One Piece. Still goofy and still entertaining. Nami is definitely my favorite character, followed by Sanji.

It was just going merrily along, then it bowled me over with this side story about Tony Tony Chopper. Where did that come from?

Halfway through Season 3 of The Night Agent. I suspect the prevailing opinion will be it's not very good, but I've enjoyed it. I'm a sucker for any crime/thriller type like this. I've loved all of the recent releases like it with His & Hers, Run Away, The Beast in Me

I watched season 1 when it came out, found it OK, but forgot about it till your post. So I binged S2 last week, and S3 this week. S2 was the better of the two. There's a problem with a ton of series and movies about characters getting from one place to another so quickly it breaks the rules of physics. That bugged me a lot in both S2 and S3, but especially in the latter. I did find the Jacob Monroe character to be an interesting take on the wealthy criminal mastermind. He "won" most of the scenes he was in. The dude playing the president had no gravitas, so it was hard to take him seriously. But the action was good, and across the three seasons gave me a greater appreciation of why dark haired women are more interesting than blondes 😉

The One Piece. Netflix. It’s weird Japanese anime brought to live action but it works. It’s goofy, irrational and odd but it works. Emily Rudd is very appealing but the whole thing is just kind of mindless fun. Think, The Monkees without the music. It’s quite a clever live action adaptation, remains colorful and doesn’t try to seem real.

Question: Is Steve Carell just Michael Scott on a campus? I am a big Office fan but feel like he's pigeonholed now.

You really should consider watching one of the million movies and shows he's been in since The Office.

It is good.
Can’t really binge it at this time, it’s new and week to week. McGinley is funny as the quirky college prez.

Closer to yes than no, i.m.o. A cerebral witty doofus.
Not as dark as the Morning Show, but it is not supposed to be.

What makes you think I haven’t?
