Finished the first season of Silo.
Pretty good!
Rebecca Ferguson is really good.

I’m about half way in, and the acting has been patchy - the guys playing Trumbull and Sims are bad, but when contrasted with Tim Robbins and Rebecca Ferguson, they come off a lot worse.

I agree. I enjoyed most of the season, but Common (Sims) consistently ruined any immersion for me.

They Cloned Tyrone is DAMN GOOD once you get past the language and settle in.

Get past what language? Not used to hearing AAVE?

First season of Westworld is a masterpiece. The rest of the series is pretty good (S3&4 are simultaneously fairly self contained and open ended) but it suffered from the high expectations set by the first season.

The last time I tried to watch Farscape a few years ago on Netflix, the video quality was terrible. Is there a streaming service that’s better? Or should I just hunt down some blurays?

It’s free on YouTube but idk if the quality is better.

The show is over 20 years old, now.

I finished Farscape (for the first time) a couple weeks ago. Now I am binging Stargate Atlantis. It always amazes me that this show didn’t become more popular.

I love both of those shows. I actually like Stargate Atlantis better that SG-1.

I hear that one a lot honestly, wonder if I should skip SG-1 and go straight for it.

Don’t! SG-1 has an incredible charm.(Especially the earlier seasons where they use less CGi.)
