If you’re not fascinated by murder. Murder for hire. Suicide/accidental shooting yourself in the head, basically on camera and a psychopath somehow getting 19% of a governor vote...well, enjoy hating life. 

20/20 (or Mainline or something like that) has shit like that all the time.  Usually done much better.  TWC (I think) had a series on serial killers...much more interesting, if you're fascinated by murder.

Nickleback has a bunch of top-10 hits.  Does that mean someone hates life if they don't like their music?  Or does it mean that crap can sometimes be popular?

How miserable must gut’s poor wife be? 
“hi honey, nice day outside isn’t it?”

gut: “actually, no. Even though it’s 70 and sunny, the humidity is a bit high and honestly warm weather is overrated. I’d much rather it be cooler. Also, make me some pancakes.”

Yes, serial killer stuff is fascinating. This was just wild to be all one person. Most serial killers aren’t also having a documentary made about them at the time; and also having a daily reality show within the documentary. 

PFTCommenter doing a Game of Thrones binge-watch and posting blogs about it. It's what you'd expect from him -- ie: I laughed.

I think it would have been a much stronger show done in 2 1-hr (so @45 minutes) segments like Dateline or something else would typically do.  It was 3X as long as it needed to be.  It was basically just Moonshiners with a murder conspiracy and tigers thrown in.

Aww, someone's feelings are hurt.  How much longer before you take your ball and go home crying this time?

After watching the whole thing, I realized that a lot of this stuff took me back to my childhood/teens. Joe Exotic was basically my father, minus being gay with tigers, but there was a murder for hire plot. My father did 2+ years in a federal pen.

My girlfriend and I aren't well versed on Netflix? Suggestions?

Just in general? Ozark is very good, and they just released the third season. 

Started Ozark S3 tonight. 

Starting Killing Eve right now. Finally got a HULU login.

I am very upset that I can't find "Armageddon" for free.....

Probably the best season of the show. Ruth is awesome and episode 9 is a gut punch. 

I finished Zero Zero Zero over the weekend. Amazon show about the three elements of one particular cocaine shipment from Mexico to Italy: The Buyers, the Sellers, and the Middlemen. All three are intertwined and it pulls it off really well. You have the drug cartel and the Italian mob with an American middlemen trying to not get killed moving the shipment. 

I wasn’t the biggest fan of S3 if ozark. I love that show but for some reason S3 just didn’t do it for me. I did not like the brother

Started S3 of Ozark with the wife the other night, but then had to go out of town for work. May pick it back up tonight. Only on Ep3.

Still an asshole about people expressing opinions on a message board, huh?

You actually came back to troll people because you're still a useless moron with nothing worthwhile to say, I see.

Truth my man, truth!

Only opinion you can give is if he has the same.......

The country music show on CBS was not bad last night.  Bunch of artists performing from home.  Enjoyed it.

Wait, is that something I am allowed to enjoy sportslady?  Doubt it......
