I'm 6 episodes in to the second season of Man in the High Castle now. It's getting very interesting. 

I enjoyed the 2nd season more than I thought. 

I totally forgot season 3 was dropping soon. I'll catch it in a week or so. 

Finished season 2 on Saturday. I thought the season finished very strong. Looking forward to starting season 3 soon.

We've also been watching through the first season of Black-ish on hulu. Very funny show.

This weeks episode was all basically a flashback.  I'm guessing next week we jump back ahead to current time and we may find out about it all.

Watched AHS last night and nope, they stayed in flashback mode, which is fine. I actually love this season now. Bringing back all the Coven characters, including Stevie Nicks! was great. Also, Murder House time! I still just don't get the point of the first 2 episodes. I would rather have spent time with these characters than the ones we saw in the first two episodes. But, maybe it will all blend together in an episode or two.

Usually the show ties everything together in unexpected ways, even for "minor" characters; if not this season, maybe they'll have some use for them next season. Who knows? AHS always keeps their audience on their toes with this stuff.
Will we see any Freak Show/Cult/Asylum characters or do you think we've had enough tie-ins?

Yeah, I trust Ryan Murphy as there is usually a pay off and good tie ins and storylines. I'm not sure he can add in too many other characters as they are played by the same actors in spots. But, hey let's see the creepy ass clown.  

I started the Haunting of Hill House last night. I'm two in and really enjoy it. It has scary elements, but is not campy. 

I also started the Romanoffs. It's an ok show so far, a little long, but I'll give it a shot.

My besties have been telling me to watch Hill House for about a week now. But besides AHS and football season, I'm just not a sit in front of the tv kind of person. I'd rather do almost anything else 90% of the year. Who knows, maybe I'll have the whim one of these days, but I doubt it.

*edit to add*

I've seen the older versions but not this new series.

I'm 3 episodes in to season 3 of Man in the High Castle. Very good so far.

That may have been my favorite AHS episode ever.

Yeah I was thinking about this last night. Perhaps one of the episodes from Coven could compete, but I'm not sure which one I'd pick.

Anyone watch The haunting of hill house on Netflix? I found it entertaining.

I've been enjoying The Goldbergs lately. Hilarious.

Yeah, I loved the AHS episode. It was great they were able to get everyone back from season 1. This season has been great overall, probably one of the best.

I'm three in and love it. I've found it has some good scares, but the story is actually legit too.

Goldbergs use to be one of my favorite shows but I find myself less & less interested each week. Too many episodes about how psycho the mom was.

I see. I've been watching from season 1 (2013).

Binged it all in about 3 days.  I had a couple of times where the hair on my neck stood up, lol.  The Bent Neck Girl episode was really creepy.

Yes, it was. 

Started watching The Haunting of Hill House, solid so far. On ep 5 and will definietly finish.

AHS watchers: Am I the only one who's very curious about the witch's helpers? There was nothing said about them in Coven and so far this season. Damn, they need to explain or have some sort of small backstory!

You mean the dudes that were straight out of the Matrix? Yeah, it was a little odd. If I had to guess, they may be Warlocks. 

It was a fine episode, one they had to reset things. My only concern is there is only 3 episodes left in the season and we are still stuck in the before the Apocalypse timeline. 

I'm also 7 in on Hill House. I loved episode 6 and the long tracking shots.

I'm going to guess that this is going to be the last year for AHS, unfortunately. Heard that Ryan Murphy is moving on to something else next year. I'll throw a fit if that's true! But it would make sense that there are so many references to previous seasons.

I'm enjoying Manifest.....though I'm sure it will end-up sucking and/or get canceled.

We finished up Hill House last night. I was bored out of my mind with them all, stuck through it for the wife though. She liked it.

This is what I don't like about review... on literally anything.  I've read the exact opposite on this show, where many say it is creepy as f•ck.  I'll give it a shot.

I'm about through 5 seasons of Parks and Rec.  When I first started, I thought it was funny, but I thought they were trying to recreate the success of the Office.  After I've made it this far, it is easily one of my all time favorites.  The caricature characters are so great.  Just about all of them.  I love Ron Swanson, I love Andy Dwyer, I love Leslie Knope, I love Anne Perkins, I love Tom Haverford.  I even love Chris Traeger's character.  Individually, these characters can be quite loathsome, but the way they make it work is so well done.
