IS ANY ACTION STAR ACTOR, REGARDLESS OF AGE, THE REAL McKOY ?

Jeff Bridges is almost always a good show.
So is Lithgow tho he usually plays the wimpy pseudo-villain you love to hate.

They do one heck of a lot of pandering and lucky we have found quite a few shows on prime and netflix to watch.

These days have no idea who are up for awards at any of these so called award shows.

Looked at whether we can get it and just saw we only have two episodes available. Wonder why only two?

It’s one of those series that’s doing the old style one-episode-per-week release.

We are hooked on Heartland (14 seasons with about 18 episodes each season!) on Netflix. It's not the type of movie that we normally watch (I like courtroom/detective/drama movies) but it's really good!

Very surprised we liked it but really enjoyed it. Will start watching season 15 in a few weeks. Very disappointed the guy playing the Vet decided to leave.

On "The Old Man"...watched 2 episodes and looking forward to following this series. We prefer to let a few episodes stack up in our queue and view a few at a time instead of "week by week".

since heartland was recommend by some totv fans i started to watch it.
I knew and enjoyed the fact that i would be seeing characters age 15 years over 6 months.
Quite the time machine.
Good and wholesome show. Sort of a break from the explosions, murders etc genre.

Re: The Old Man

Jeff Bridges is my age and looks a lot worse than I do (says my wife !!! LOL)

So, it's hard to figure him as a real action guy, but... I'll give it a try. I like that kind of show.
