I watched the staircase on Netflix over the last couple of days. Don't know if he did it or not. But it's yet another show where I just think "how the fuck does that happen". The American legal/judicial system make no sense to me. They seem to be guilty until proven innocent and an almost trial by tv before the trial is just an ok thing to do. 

 

Overall, the show was about a 7. Thought they could have made it shorter.

I think it was shorter initially but they came back a few years later and added more to it. Although I might be remembering that wrong.

That has definitely happened as his final session in court his sister in law was ranting about the documentary makers to the judge.

It looks like episodes 1-8 were out in 2005. 9-10 2013 and the rest in 2018

By that measure we’re between six and ten years away from a Making a Murderer update.

The Sopranos starts slow but improves immeasurably in the third series. Excellent and its free to watch on the HBO Now website. 

I've been watching it for the first time myself and am very near the end of series 4. I haven't really noticed any change in quality from series to series

Bosch season 6 is out now. 

[RedKnight]

Rationing it to two episodes a week.

Castlevania S1-3 on Netflix. It's rather very good and easily the best adaptation of a game to film or TV. 8/10.

Watched a few things on Netflix where I wished I had watched the staircase myself,  and I'm in a bungalow.

Just the new season. Seen all the others.

Tales from the Loop - episode four Echo Sphere. 6/10. Poignant but slow as fuck.

[Brownie]

Started Bosch season 1. Three episodes in, early days but a decent start.

[3 Stacks]

Just watched the first two episodes of "The Last Dance", the documentary on the 97-98 Chicago Bulls and Michael Jordan. Will be released to Netflix in two episode increments for the next 5 weeks. 

 

It's great so far. They got access to the locker room and there's a lot of never before seen footage.

9/10 so far 

"Never got your nookie where you get your cookie"

Excellent

Titus Welliver is great casting as Bosch, would never have dreamt of him as a choice after reading the books but they got it bang on.

[polymerpunkah]

"Devs"

 

I enjoyed it. I didn't understand all of it, but I like that they took something as dry as theoretical physics and made an entertaining show centred around it.

 

It's one I'll watch again.

Is it the same stories as in the books, or was it written for TV using the same character and setting?

It's mostly the same stories with a bit of artistic license, the casting is very good throughout although they've changed the Jerry Edgar character a bit, he's not the same half-assed snide that he is in the books.
