If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

I really hope it's better than the crap fest that was Season 2.

Yes, no doubt with with ads... unless you pay extra for ad-free or use third-party software to exorcise them.

The first three episodes of Season 3 just dropped today. The rest of the episodes look like they'll drop once per week.

OK, I tuned into it, watched Season 1, Episode 1. Not bad, better than the reeking cr@p the networks are feeding us.

I like the change they made to the way Reacher knew the status of the revolver. The version in the book bugged me.

2.5 episodes in and...

what an unmitigated *expletive deleted*it show.

It's as incredibly bad as the first season was decent.

At this point I'm only watching it for the fight scenes because everything else, literally everything else, is horrific.

The plot line makes a Clive Cussler book look like a great American novel.

I've never read the book that this is based on, so I can only hope that it's better than the video script and better than the utter fecal festival that is anything that Clive Cussler ever wrote.

If it's not?

God help us all.

The first one was best so far, but this is better than the second one.

Too bad you don’t like it because your P7 features in it.

Not even Reacher's S&W revolver can redeem this amazingly huge festering *expletive deleted*it pile.

Having watched only S1E1 so far and thinking I may binge watch the first season, you're sure giving me a lot to look forward to!

Okayfine... Just watched the opening sequence of season 3, episode 1...
 
I figure that after that there was a serious shortage of dope and acid and mushrooms and peyote in Hollywood...
 
Gonna try to watch the rest, but holding out hope.

I just finished ep 4.  (I think 5 comes out tomorrow)  It's trash, but I liked it.  :rofl:  I've never read any of Lee Child's books so don't know how it compares to the original material, but it's good escapism if you turn your brain off to watch it.  I like the ahole DEA lady character.  Sgt. Kohl was a bit too... something.

The DEA got the van from an impound and the vinyl belonged to the older DEA agent.

Yes. It wasn't his. It was part of the image they constructed for him.
