Since you are "of an age" to be living here in The Villages, you will see people you know and maybe even yourself in this series. Highly, highly recommended.

I highly, highly recommend it also. And I have only seen the 1st 2 episodes. It seems to appeal to the older, retired generation.

Bingo.

Writing, acting, directing, producing, creating..... with so many irons in the fire, it's a wonder that he has time to sleep.

Previously finished the Lincoln Lawyer and Designated Survivor.

I don't watch normal TV, just Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. While some folks are watching The View or Fox & Friends - I'm Netflixing

I loved Ted Danson in The Good Place - looking forward to this new one just as soon as I finish season 6 of Lost (probably next week).

Designated Survivor is on my list for the near future - the previews look good and the premise. I watch a lot of Sci/Fi . Black Mirror is very good and each episode is a completely new story, which is nice. Black Sails is excellent, but I did NOT like the very last, ending episode. That happens with a lot of shows - they fail to stick the landing. The latest DUNE movie was very good. I have watched 2 seasons of Altered Carbon and that was excellent. There is a German film titled "DARK" that was very interesting, but hard to follow the many characters and the time traveling. It was so complicated that I had to take notes. I would NOT recommend it for most people, although it was well liked by the critics. Man on the Inside was a perfect LIGHT movie to balance out my many Sci/Fi movies.

Billy Bob Thornton is so good in “Landman” and with the re-up of “Yellowstone” I am rooting for Beth Dutton to get revenge on her stupid, evil brother. Been watching a lot of people wearing cowboy hats lately. Ranchers and Oil. Big money stuff with lots of drama.

Billy Bob Thornton is probably my favorite Actor.

I've never tried Yellowstone, but I loved its prequel 1883.

1883 was my favorite, too. When the piano had to be left behind at the river crossing and she sat down and played “Moonlight Sonata” one last time, it made me cry. .”Moonlight Sonata” always makes me tear up anyway because it is so beautiful.

I was surprised to learn there were so many German immigrants going west. I thought they all stopped in Cincinnati and started raising pigs and making beer.

1883 made me think more than the others, about a lot of things, including wondering if those of us whose ancestors headed west, way west, are made of tougher stuff than those of us whose ancestors stopped at Ohio.

We binge-watched it last week. I ordinarily do not like films of this genre (prefer drama/mystery instead) and have never been a fan of Ted Danson - but this one was really entertaining.

I’m watching both ‘Man on the Inside’ and ‘Landman’. The first I was up to the middle of episode 6 and my hubby saw a few minutes of it and immediately told me to stop watching it so he could catch up!

The second, had a very good scene where Thornton was explaining to a young woman about what it costs to install a windmill. Priceless.

Two words: Whoopi Goldberg.

We binge-watched it last night. (Thanksgiving is not at our house.)

Intended to watch just a couple of episodes but got involved in the storyline which had a balance of the funny and the sad things about aging.

I liked it. And! There was GLORIA. Had not seen her in a while.

Finished the series a few nights ago. We both enjoyed it. I did expect it to be more humorous though, with Ted Danson in it.

Have always liked Ted Danson but so far watched the first two episodes and not finding it very funny.

[Irmidick]

I agree. I cried my Mom and dad lived in very similar independent living. Writers nailed it.

You should check out FROM on MGM+ there are 3 season out now and a 4th is coming next year. Very good show.

We have 2 more episodes to watch. It has been great.
