The Old Man (Hulu/FX)

[tragabigzanda]

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

[Mecca]

I think she is great. Magnetic as always. I think the writing around her character is bad.

Okay, freckles

Just started this one. Ep 1 was wonderful.

[Ensign9]

Should’ve capped this as a complete, 10-episode limited series. I fear this is going to turn into 24 or bad era Homeland next season.

Ultimately, there was more good than bad but the balance of the season didn’t live up to the promise of those first three episodes.

Also, the reveal wasn’t a reveal at all to me because I thought that they had set her up as his daughter the whole time. I clearly wasn’t paying close enough attention earlier this season.

[VinylGuy]

just finished ep3 and im so glad Amy Brennerman is on this series. She is always compelling, but she is giving so much dept to her character with so little.

[dad]

it's definitely no The Bear or Severance, but we're into it so far. only two episodes in.

we were just on the phone with my FiL, and recommended as this type of show is his thing.

[dad]

finished S1 this afternoon.

not feeling good about this one anymore.

[dad]

i never watched 24, and only one season of Homeland. not that those shows are anything like this one, though i'm sure you could find similarities.

at first, this story seemed to be about blowback but quickly turned into my three dads.

this thing could've been limited to one season.

i'd be interested to see how the book ends though.

[dad]

why do i feel like this whole thing will end up being a figment of Dan Chase's imagination?

[VinylGuy]

i like this season enough. Yeah, the first episodes were the best ones of the bunch, but still it was compelling enough.

The cast was good even if the writing wasnt sometimes.

[E.H. Ruddock]
