Forced myself to watch season 1 of THEM It's about racism and the occult. West Compton is like an old Forsyth County Georgia. Blacks were not allowed. I don't know if season 2 is more of the same. I may give it a peek to see. If it is I won't watch it. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I watched season 2. Never watched season 1. I thought it was alright. But I like horror shows.

I don't. Maybe that's why season 1 didn't appeal to me. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Might give this a shot. I’ve been debating for a few days. Funny how everyone and their mother is watching it. |

It has promise. Kinda strange not seeing Batman. I understand why he won't be in the series. His presence would overshadow the Penguin. Colin Ferrell is unrecognizable. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

It was good.1st episodes are always a little paced to get storyline established. As noted, colin is unrecognizable. Im tempted to lay off until I get a few episodes in the bag. this old-school waiting a week for an episode is weird. _________________ Iman Shumpert, believes LBJ's decision to constantly team up with other All-Stars eschewed the idea of superstars continually adding layers to their repertoire. |

Anyone watching Matlock with Kathy Bates? Its plot is interesting. Matlock seeking someone to pay for her daughter dying from a drug overdose. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Every time I break and go back to From, I feel like an addict who relapses.

It’s very formula (every character is given motive and opportunity), but that formula works if done well, and what makes it fun is a cast of likable actors playing rotten people and having a good time doing it. Plus, I will watch anything Schreiber is in, and he’s not even the best character in the show. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim.

Is From the complete title of the series? When I search it on my IPTV I get all kinds of series with From in the title. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Yep. It is just From.

Be warned. It will hook you in. But it's made by the same people who made Lost.
You might be better off just waiting a few years for the whole show to end. Cause I'm starting to doubt we'll ever get answers. _________________ When the world grows. Grow with it. |

I saw this and thought I'd check it out. Come to find out, I already watched it--I seem to do this often. VERY formulaic, lots of testosterone, but very entertaining indeed. _________________ "A metronome keeps time by using a Ringo" |

Is anyone watching Matlock? It's staring Kathy Bates and Jason Ritter, the son of John Ritter, who's the son of Tex Ritter. Y'all young whippersnappers probably don't know about the great western movie making cowboy Tex Ritter _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Just finished watching the final episode of the season, so ne last plug: If you like dark comedies with a dose of mystery, tangled webs, cliff hangar episodes all while wondering, “how the (bleep) is this going to end?”, you will love this show. _________________ "You know it seems the more we talk about it, it only makes it worse to live without it."
