Yeah I think Season 3 would be when it started to become a really special show to me. In the beginning I didn't really love a lot of the characters. They were kind of funny but so selfish and at times a little annoying. But eventually as they grew as people they also grew on me. By the end I loved them all so much and now of course on rewatch I'm able to love them in episodes I initially didn't. They're honestly some of my favorite TV characters. I hope it cleans up at the Emmys this year. Really deserves the accolades.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
Historia de un Crimen: La Busqueda is a nice addition to mexican netflix based on a true story and probably one of the most embarrasing cases ever in MExico

 Re: What are you watching right now?
I finally finished watching Scream: The TV Series and damn are those first two seasons a blast. I mean nothing will ever come close to the greatness of the original movie for me personally, but this show ended up being a lot better than I thought it would, especially after how much that first episode turned me off, but it gets so much better from then on. I didn't even hate the third season, because it reminded me so much of another mindless, trashy horror show I watched not that long ago called Slasher, but it was definitely a big step down from the first two seasons.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
I finished the first season of "Love Victor." Love Simon is one of my favorite movies of the past few years. I saw it four times in theaters. The series was cute but felt a little slight for me. Reminded me of something that would air on Freeform and the cast definitely lacked the charisma of the leads in the film. That being said, it was enjoyable and I binged through it quickly. Would definitely watch a second season. The best episode was definitely episode 8 where show up. And it was fun seeing a few other characters from the movie pop in. I despised his sister though.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
Good to hear that. Need to watch that series soon, I thought the premise of The Politician was good and aside from poor script in season 1 it had good chance to improve in upcoming seasons.
I also started Part 2 of Mr Iglesias continues to be decently funny without going anywhere.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
Finally finished Homeland Season 8. I am going to miss this series. Claire Danes is still SO GOOD in this. This season was good and brisk with an urgency that I felt wasn't there since season 5.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
Yeah the final Season of Homeland was solid even though I think the show hasn't been all great since Season 3 or 4. I was satisfied with the ending though and Kingdom was a really solid show as well, although I don't think Nick Jonas's bisexuality was handled all that well and the last couple of episodes and especially the series finale felt rushed and anticlimactic IMO.
Other stuff I've watched are the first seasons of Curon and Reality Z which were fine, but I wouldn't be in any rush to watch any further seasons and I also just finished I Know This Much Is True which is a good enough show on its own, but man is Mark Ruffalo great in it and it has to be the most dynamic and powerful performance of his career. It won't be for everybody because it is a pretty sad and depressing mini series, but its definitely worth watching for Ruffalo's performance alone.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
I'm four episodes into "I Know This Much Is True" which is incredibly depressing but incredible. Mark Ruffalo is a revelation.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
Halfway through Sex Education season 1 and it's so good, raunchy and so heartfelt and I fucking love that it doesn't shame the teens for their high sex drives and sexual escapades and play it solely for laughs.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
Finished Working Moms Season 2 and while I still enjoy the series take its now turning into a generic comedy, plus characters are making unnecessary bad choices throughout.
Also binged Schitt's Creek Season 5, the series continues to be great though after the high of Season 4 its pretty much back to goodness of Season 3. The stand-out episode is that of coming out and the one with hospital. I am halfway through Season 6 and I am not yet ready to say goodbye to these characters.

I love them so much. So I just keep watching the show over with new people  . Definitely make sure to watch the special that aired after the series finale. It was really good.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
Just recently finished The Order Season: 2 and I thought it was a significant improvement over the first season and now I can't wait for Season 3. I also quickly binged Betty: Season 1 which is an entertaining little show, although its very much steeped in gender politics and feminism which honestly didn't bother me all that much except when it came to the portrayal of the male characters in the show who are mostly either just stoner idiots or asshole, sexual predators.
I am currently watching The Twilight Zone revival from Jordan Peele which is okay so far, but not great but hopefully I am able to start Dark: Season 3 tomorrow.

 Re: What are you watching right now?
Watched the first season of Love, Victor a couple days after it premiered. Loved it. I thought it was close to as good as Love, Simon. Watched the season again with my mom yesterday. Can't wait for a second season.
