Second season of Orange is the New Black launched today.

 

Anyone else into this?

 

I have to admit to being a bit of a TV/movie-phile.  I generally buy Blu-Rays when there's a movie I want to see rather than just watching it on PPV or In-demand (I like to collect).

 

Premium TV has really been leading a creative resurgence in recent years, probably dating back to The Sopranos.  Its nice that Netflix has become a legitimate competitor for HBO (which puts out some really great shows like Sopranos, Deadwood, Boardwalk Empire, True Blood etc).

 

House of Cards was tremendous.

 

While cable channels like AMC are getting in on the act, I annoys me a bit.  The Walking Dead would be so much better on Netflix or HBO where they could truly appeal to adults (HBO passed on The Walking Dead when Thomas Jane was attached).

 

As for Orange, it took me a few episodes to get into last season but Im looking forward to banging out a few episodes tonight.

 

As an aside, for you Trekies, it was recently the 20th anniversary of the finale of TNG, one of the best Series' Finales in TV history.

    Caught up on the episodes of Landman and Silo, needed something to stream during the holidays so I watched both seasons of Shrinking. Harrison Ford is fantastic and Ted McGinley is great but the star of the show is Christa Miller.

    Harrison Ford carries the thing. Especially in the second half of S2 when the writing went to ****.... He was almost the only reason to watch.

    Landmans awesome......

    Well I finished the Crown season 5...what a mess when I got to annus horriblus all I could hear was Oprah saying "You get a legal Separation! You Get a Legal Separation! You get a legal Separation! I did like that Margaret did get to see Peter one more time before he died

     I kind of liked the first Fayed episode it was refreshing to see a billionaire treat a servant with respect (and holy crap Dodi had a good eye regarding movies)

    I couldn't watch the intro to episode 6 I like the editing on this show but I hate how they did it here, they show the Romanov's getting shot up while the Reigning Royals at the time were on a hunt 

    and yeah there is some accuracy about the Queen Mother liking those night soaps (she even asked Larry Hagman if he knew who shot him) still of all the shows that popped up in the last scenes of Gunpowder, why Beavis and Butthead? was it too much to ask for the Simpsons? I'll bet they could have used a guide button on that Satellite remote

    I can't believe someone in the family gave the Queen a Big mouth Billy Bass

    yeah I know what's coming in season 6 though I watched that episode already (granted I'm not looking forward to seeing the Queen lose her sister, her mother and Porchie all in a six month span though I don't think they'll cover the latter (however I wonder if they'll cover 9/11 because shocker, I checked he actually died on 9/11...not the way you think though) he stopped showing up after season 3)

    Started watching Landman with Billy Bob Thornton this weekend. Was really hard to turn off and go to bed at a reasonable time.

    Best thing I have watched so far this year.

    I finished watching Landman last week and all I can say is I can't wait till the 2nd season, not the biggest Billyl Bob fan but he nails the part and Ali Larter is a smoke show

    Its a good watch like all of Sheridan's shows. Hated the daughter/mother team but also couldn't take my eyes off of them :D

    Now we just have to wait 1.5-2 years for the next season.
