Ben Edlund.
We finished Good Omens last night and I enjoyed it. The final bits differ a bit from the book as far as I remember. Without going into spoilers, I feel like Crowley and Aziraphale got a bit more attention due to being the Big Names of the whole production. Theyāre also a great pair on-screen.
I also loved that even if the lost the set-up for the Queen joke, the music is still there the whole time.

Weāre also watching Fleabag which is funny and kind of dark at times.
Lost in Space.
Not terrible, but the acting isnāt great. It fills a hole. I love the sets and equipment that theyāve designed and built.
Not quite right for the thread, but I finally started reading the novels the show The Expanse is based onā¦ And Iām undecided as to if I should watch the series or wait until Iām caught up. Iām liking the ādirty spaceā aspects of it: Itās pretty hard sci-fi (so far?).
He puts in a Mozart CD that changes around the time he hits the M25 during his 15th century rant.
The Big Blue Bug of Justice does not let a mis-typed name stop him. Spoon!
No! You take that name and smack it on the nose with the rolled up newspaper of knowledge!
BAD DOG! BAD DOG!
STRANGER THINGS IS SUPER CREEPY THIS TIME!
I mean, the character interactions are still cute as hell and I love the chief, but holy heckfire!

Itās weird seeing Eleven with hair. She blends with a group now.
So many feels at the end of Stranger Things. Yes, we binged the whole thing yesterday.
Just finishing up the last episode this afternoon. Like, I cry at everything but who cries at Stranger Things? Oh, me. 
Less than I want to, because DirecTV is in a squabble with the owners of the local ABC & CBS affiliates. We only get NBC (out of the Big Three) right now.
Iām seriously thinking about umping ship to YoutubeTV when this contract is up in January. That plus Netflix & maybe Hulu & Disney Plus should get us more than we need and be cheaper.
We finished Stranger Things a couple nights ago. Good ending, with he biggest āSequel hookā theyāve done, I think.
Also, Steve deserves a āmost improvedā award. Remember how everyone hated him for being a bad boyfriend in Season 1? Now heās actually a nice guy, surprisingly humble, and deals with lots of stuff surprisingly well. Heās actually grown.
Weāre also watching Patriot which has gotten interesting, as well as Deadwood (because I wanted to watch the movie).
Patriot is a very dark comedy about spies. Specifically, the main character tells people heās a spy when he sings folk music and relies on no one believing anyone would do that. He and his āhandlersā (His father and brother, mostly) are also arguably incompetent. This isnāt anywhere near James Bond or even Archer, but they persevere because they think theyāre right, and maybe are.
Deadwood is nearly old enough to vote, so if you care about it go for it. $Wife was expecting it to be darker based off the way I described it, but that was pre-Game of Thrones and similar so perhaps it doesnāt seem quite so dark now.
Weāre enjoying both.
As to @dakboy talking about services: I feel like every service is āon the bubbleā for us. We still pay for TiVo but Iām close to dropping that as we nearly ever watch recorded material any more.We have 3 other pay services, and if it was slightly easier to watch the shows I like and feel like Iām doing the morally right thing, Iād drop them in favor of other services. HBO is basically āJohn Oliver and the occasional movieā although $Wife likes Gentleman Jack (which is between seasons). Hulu isā¦ Goldbergs? We actually got it for Handmaidās Tale (which turned out to be too bleak for us) and Lucifer (which jumped to Netflix) but it might be the āgapā if I drop the TiVo.
Of the upcoming services Disney is the lead for me. I can get caught up on Marvel movies.
Oh, my āpersonalā TV show is The Expanse which I just started after reading the first three books. Itās pretty good, and different from the books.
I see a future of me picking up and dropping services as they have things I want to see.
