We just started the last season to Peaky Blinders, once that’s over we’re thinking about The Witcher…

The S1 is really ****ing good. S2 is good. I haven't watched S3.

Witcher and Peaky Blinders aren't really very similar. There is some magic and shit in it (think Lord of the Rings not Harry Potter) and isn't on earth etc etc. Peaky Blinders was very much Birmingham in 1920.

Not sure what you're looking for, but don't watch Witcher and expect Blinders.

Read the books so I can't weigh in, but the universe ends up very well established by the 2nd book which is a prequel for about the first 3/4 of it before finishing up around the same time as the 1st book. The third advances the story forward.

They take a few liberties with the storytelling but that's to be expected. In either event, there aren't many questions unanswered, at least as it relates to the Silo and the events that led to it.

How the hell could operators live and work in the exclusion zone with all that radiation? Then you read about all the people that sneak in there with Geiger Counters and stuff is all profoundly interesting, but it's weird, and not how we we would think.

And I think 3 Mile Island ran until sometime in the 90s, and only shut down because the company went broke.

Weird shit man.

I will check the The Days though, obviously Ithat shit is interesting.

Radiation is funny that way. Super deadly but also pretty damn easy to avoid getting killed by. You can really wall it off pretty well if you're not stupid and reckless.

That Russian reactor design was just...phew - it was real bad. And it wasn't because we didn't know how to do it better - the Russians just didn't do it. The RBMK's having a positive void coefficient is just nutty and when we knew how to make the coolant and the moderator the same thing, why would you NOT do that?

I thought Witcher was corny and sucked so stop after episode 4.

Oh yeah I know that. My wife is a huge Harry Potter fan, she’s watching Peaky Blinders with me so I’ll be watching The Witcher with her.

Surely, Netflix's "Quarterback" should get a mention in the Must Watch Series thread

It definitely pays off the later half of the season but I definitely felt the same.

I know I'm going to enjoy it because I like the characters

I'm only 2 episodes in but I'm missing the Chicago Easter eggs and grit of the first season, so hopefully that comes along

The extreme close up film choice is just triggering my OCD. Feels like I'm watch Dr. Pimple Popper at times

ROFL

They make up for a slow start to season 2 in episode 5. After that they bring great writing back. Episode 6 is can't miss, of any series ever.

RE: The Bear s2 e7 if anyone wants the Pequads experience you can have it shipped from from Goldbelly

I've sent them as gifts to family in the past and they've been well received
