From the producers of "The Good Place" comes a hilariously aspirational new comedy about the best bar in San Diego, home to good prices, great company and, of course, Abby. This unlicensed, makeshift bar nestled in her backyard is the opposite of everything annoying about today's party scene. There are rules at Abby's: no cell phones (not even to "look something up"), earning a seat at the bar takes time and losing a challenge means drinking a limey, sugary "not-beer" drink. As the oddball cast of regulars will tell you, hanging out at Abby's is a coveted honor. But once you're in, you're family.

Thanks Ratsky!

Reposting since I managed to post this right before we switched threads....

I'm catching up on some Netflix recently. Really enjoyed Russian Doll and now I'm tearing through Sex Education.

RatskyWatsky said:
I can never for the life of me understand what critics see in Better Things. Like, it's a decent-yet-wholly-unremarkable show about bratty rich people doing things you've already seen a million times before. There is the occasional astute observation on the human condition, but it's mostly just basic fluff propped up by Pamela Adlon's charisma.

I'll cop to only having watched the first 3-4 episodes of the first season before losing interest. I wonder to what extent the critical response to the show is based on a proximity to where many of them are in life. Seems like many of the prominent critics are in their 40's with kids in the middle/high school age?

berzeli said:
Oh, yes. Really looking forward to be one of the seven people who will watch this. But it looks great!.

I imagine it'll be quite good, but I agree that it's not going to put up much of anything in terms of numbers. Seems like one of those shows with <100 posts in the Era thread for the entire season. Probably will do well critically and garner some awards buzz, though.

luca · Feb 28, 2019

Will check out:

Love, Death & Robots
What We Do In the Shadows
Hanna

But I honestly need to get around the movies first.

And a monthly thanks to you Ratsky for doing these amazing threads, without you, it would be much harder keeping up with TV.

I've not tried Orville need to catch up with the other 3, I'll give it a go, cheers.

berzeli · Feb 28, 2019

Great job on the thread as always rats!

Will watch:
Fleabag - Phoebe Waller-Bridge can do no wrong.
American Gods - I really want this show to hit its full potential. Season 1 came close in parts of it.
Now Apocalypse - Sex, queerness, lizardpeople. What more can you ask for in a show?
The Good Fight - one of the funniest, smartest shows is back! And so is Queen Baranski!
The bits of 9-1-1 Brian Grubb posts on twitter
The OA - I really liked the first season, and the trailer is kinda neo-noir-ish in a way I did not anticipate
What We Do in the Shadows - pls be as good as the movie, or like half as good since the movie was really, really good
Santa Clarita Diet - This has turned into one of Netflix's best shows
Traitors - I'm a sucker for spy fiction... and Keeley Hawes
Barry - I didn't love the first season as much as everyone else seem to have (I think watching Killing Eve before it made it just seem lesser in comparison which isn't really fair) but I'm good for another go
Veep - Never quite reaching the same highs as The Thick of It. But still a great, and very funny show

Might w-wait a minute. Did everything I am interested in end up on the will watch list? And it's pretty long? Oh god, death by TV it is then.

Miker · Feb 28, 2019

This is my first time learning about Mental Samurai and that is some shit you'd see as a parody on another TV show kinda show.

Probably less that 50... I don't think era is anywhere near the target audience for Fosse/Verdon. 🤐

American Idol - ABC - 8/7c

Good Girls - NBC - 10/9c

Shark Tank - ABC - 10/9c - Time Period Debut

Anyone else watching Good Girls? I saw an ad for it recently, noting that the first season's on Netflix, so I watched Season 1. Thought it would be a 30 minute comedy, but it's an hour long comedy/drama, a kind of Breaking Bad-esque network show with Christina Hendricks (Mad Men), Mae Whitman (Arrested Development), and Retta (Parks & Rec). Some hard swings between the comedy and drama, but overall enjoying it. Enough that I'm giving season 2 a shot.

Note episode one might deserve a content warning.

Great work on the thread Ratsky. A lot of shows I like coming back this month:

Fleabag (well I guess I wait for this to come to Amazon, but I'm super excited)
American Gods
The Good Fight (might wait to sub to All Access when the season is finished though)
Catastrophe
Billions
Jane the Virgin
Happy!
Barry
Veep

For new shows, I pretty much keep an eye out for what I hear is good as they release these days. Interested in these at a glance though:

Now, Apocalypse
What We Do in the Shadows
Hanna

Also watching through Buffy/Angel for the first time. Kind of got away from me during the Fall due to football, but I resubbed to Hulu and am back into it now.

Deleted member 3896 · Feb 28, 2019

Thanks for the new thread!

Do we know when/ if Fleabag S2 is hitting Amazon?

A Ream of Paper · Feb 28, 2019

Will be checking out the Eric Andre Kraft Punk special and Love, Death & Robots. Maybe What We Do in the Shadows too.

gforguava · Feb 28, 2019

Now Apocalypse is the big new one on the horizon for me. Gregg Araki getting his own show is too big a deal to miss.

I'm also going to give Hanna a shot, even though I think it is a terrible idea.

And, of course, The OA's return makes me beyond happy.

I hadn't thought of that! I guess the subject content of the series matches up so closely with their own lives that that relatability overrides the banality of it all.

I'll pick American Gods. Oh, Arrested Development... why have we come to this that i have almost zero interest to continue watching.

Just watched last night's episode of Car S.O.S. on Nat Geo. Incredible car restoration of the TR4 and a deserving owner.

I watched most of Russian Doll but stopped in the second to last episode. I might finish it sometime. It was okay, but I don't feel it's necessary that I finish it. Same for True Detective, 3 episodes to go, don't really feel like finishing it.
I don't know, I can't deny that today's TV is really well made, but most of the critically acclaimed shows that I tried recently left me pretty unimpressed. It all feels pretty soul-less.
Well except for Atlanta, it was legitimately great.

I might? Ok fine. I'll do it.

btw, did you see the red carpet premiere photos?

God I love this show already.

In for Arrested development, barry, and Veep.
I'll wait for Now apocalypse reviews before considering :)

The Central Park Five series from Ava got a title and a trailer, looks pretty damn good:

Fleabag, Veep, The Good Fight, Superstore and What We Do In Shadows are definite watches. I might check out Hanna, despite the preview episode being the movie pretty much. Street Legal is something I watched with my parents when I was younger so I might watch it purely due to curiosity. Full month.

Looking forward to American Gods, even though the beautiful Gillian Anderson won't be in this season. :(

Same. It is the best show already.

Watched the fantastic 3 part drama Manhunt last night starring Martin Clunes as Colin Sutton documenting the arrest and conviction of serial killer Levi Bellfield.

Gripping and disturbing but brilliantly done.

TheBeardedOne · Mar 2, 2019

Maybe The Fix or A.P. Bio, but probably none of these.

Really looking forward to watching this one. Sounds exactly what I was hoping for!

Happy to have Superstore back this Thursday.

It's difficult not to look for little nuggets of Doc Martin's personality breaking out on screen lol, but Martin Clunes played it well.

TV in March 2019 - What are you watching?
