I finally got around to starting The Wire a few weeks ago. I see what all the hype was about. It’s wild how many of those actors went on to great careers.

Just finished Common Side Effects and I’d give it a 4.5/5. Mike Judge always delivers.

Two episodes in, I'm liking The Residence.

Great gimmick in eight episodes where all events in the series occur during one night, each episode focusing on character/event in the murder mystery, featuring the world of the wide variety of White House residential staffing roles. Great cast.

What's crazy is that a buddy of mine was BPD back in the day and that the portrayals of the cops and criminals is spot-on...

I wonder if the timeline was inspired by "24" when all events in the series occurred in one day...

I want to say The Pitt is a good show but really it is just an emotionally exhausting shocksploit.

Very impressed with The Residence. The writing required to weave together all the different storylines and characters is mind-boggling.

Also considering...
Spoiler
they had to reshoot almost half of it because Andre Braugher passed away and Giancarlo Esposito had to come in and fill that role.

Ugh. It's been in the queue for weeks, but if you guys would've told me Susan Watson's fine ass was in The Residence, I would've started it already.

I only knew her from NCIS way back when so I wasn't familiar with her game.
