A nice holiday gem on alternative Christmas music.... Extremely needed extra long re-caps on seasonal shows w/lengthy time between seasons Give it a try - quite fascinating.... Ignore the naysayers....esp the "woke" whiners... If you enjoy this, check out Boiling Point, both the movie and five part limited series...wow. OUTSTANDING follow up limited series to 2021 movie w/Stephen Graham Questions about film distribution..... 2 episodes in and so far, it is pretty good and hitting the right notes (except for the woke bitchers of course)... Read the original book and one aspect in shows like this often could be left out.... After one episode..... View all posts >

Have you seen Chrystal? And The Badge? Both of those are good examples of his acting, especially Chrystal. Both Southern type stories. I have enjoyed Goliath and he doesn't disappoint. There are good stories and it has a good supporting cast. And in a way, he plays about the same type of character in Goliath as in Landman - sharp-tongued, take no bullshit and so on. I feel sorry for folks like you all who can't seem to enjoy any show with cast members that aren't lily-white and by defining any show that is not all lily-white as automatically woke. This show is not racist or "woke." For one thing, the population in DC is fifty percent black. Also, if any of you had read any sort of information prior to watching this show, you would have learned aspects of it were specifically done to be more inclusive (there was even one article that brought up how the creators purposely included scenes with eating and food because of the importance of what goes on around food and the importance of food in culture). Not only that, if you clueless people had more knowledge about "blaxploitation" flicks of the 70s, you would have noticed even elements of those types of programs were built into this show, especially the last two episodes. Lastly, the "defund the police" aspect was used as a plot-driving device and to evoke emotion. I'm sorry.........it was a wildly bonkers show. I'm sorry.........it was a wildly bonkers show. I am with you. Ah, that makes sense. Thank you. Yes, I do, but now it is working fine. So bizarre. It just started doing it, then quit, then quit loading right and is now loading again. I get so sick and tired of "Christians" punting on this. It is disgusting and Bill Maher was right a few years ago when he stated how so many American Christians do not practice their faith as Muslims do and it it true and for Americans it is a part-time thing. Trump is nothing but a non-religious person and he shows it each and every day and is a horrible advertisement of sincere and genuine religion. And for those that throw out how you are not supposed to question one's faith and beliefs - horseshit. Crap like that is why Religion is so tarnished in this country - it is because the biggest proclaimers of it are most often those that follow it the least. As someone pointed out, where are all the megachurch leaders that make millions offering donations to those hit by the hurricanes? Where are their good deeds? Nowhere. I mean, how can someone like Franklin Graham stand behind a person like Trump while he utters lies about the hurricane disasters and demonizes legal migrants? Read the Bible - it is clear about all this and as one sincere religious pastor pointed out - the liturgy of the bible regarding lies includes correcting the lies, stopping the lies, and not telling the lies again. Not really. I've seen the original version of that and parts of the re-make and it is different and I don't want to offer spoilers, but the undead are mentally vacant with reptillian survival instincts intact. It is just the filming technique was beautiful but so slow with no noticeable need for the slowness of the filming (what I'm referring to are prolonged scenes like that of a person driving, people in a rowboat, and segments of nature and just general lingering of the camera).
