I don't really care how trashy it is, but the Below Deck franchise is next level entertainment. Between all the spin-offs, I've binged through 13 seasons in a month.

I have a couple of coworkers who are obsessed with Below Deck.

Thanks to my wife, I'm addicted to Vanderpump Rules, but also watch Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills. Though I could live without the latter, and don't watch the other Real Housewives shows at all.

I just finished the first season of Severance and I thought the last few episodes were phenomenal. I wasn't totally grabbed by the pilot, but would implore anyone who felt similar to let it play out as it develops and unravels in a really intoxicating way and then totally finds its feet in the last few episodes. Cannot wait for more. 

We finished this last night and holy shit the last could of episodes really cranked it up a notch. Feels like they're onto something really good - I just hope they have a genuine thought out explanation for all the goings on and not a Lost-esque make it up as they go along approach.

Just binged all of Severance, loved how it started out as some strange The Stanley Parable show and evolved into something really intriguing and I can't wait for more.

Kyle and Lisa. Wish they'd get rid of Sutton, and Garcelle needs to shut up about Denise.

Did your wife watch Sex and the City? I feel like the Real Housewives franchises have occupied a space since SatC for many people. It's virtually the same show, just more cock tails being thrown in Housewives and more nudity in SatC.

Not that I know of. And my experience with that show is limited to one scene from it with Kim Catrall.

Barry, starring Bill Hader in his best role.

New season is starting up, so the lady and I are re-watching through to get ready. It's been a long break, but I'm sure it's worth the wait.

Too right - it’s been about three years hasn’t it?!

[RPS]

I wrote about it before but after the end of season 1 I had zero desire to watch Barry. Great show, great acting, zero RPS desire to keep watching.

The Walking Dead Carol and Daryl spin-off is now just going to be a Daryl spin-off.

Did they kill Carol off, or something?

Unironically, just let the damn franchise die. I'm still watching, but at this point it's out of sheer habit, and the end of the main series is going to end it. Just finish up, and at least let nostalgia have some years to kick in.

[GhostMachine]

I know the Walking Dead series went off the rails for the comics fairly quick. But unless Andrew Lincoln returns, the show is going to have to have a very different ending than the comics.

Spoiler

(Carl died in the show, but is alive at the end of the comics. Daryl doesn't exist at all in the comics.....)
