Nobody seems to talk about Netflix's The Last Kingdom? I thought it would be mindless entertaining schlock, but while it can be silly, it's also well made, has moments of real pathos, and grapples with interesting ideas. Better than it has any right to be, really #slashtag
@davechensky Don't know if #slashtag is allowed for non-viewing recs, but your true crime discussion re The Staircase made me think of this (assuming you have time to read these days): pic.twitter.com/NXzI6oq00G
@Devindra I know it's a few years late but did you watch Dispatches From Elsewhere on AMC? I feel like this would be a series you'd enjoy.
If you did, I'd love to hear your thoughts.

#slashtag "We're all going to the World's Fair" is on VOD. Was at Sundance '21. Experimental film whose EP is David Lowery. Only 86 mins long. @davechensky would LOVE it, @Devindra would meh it, and @jeffcannata would be bored to tears assuming he ever saw it. 92%RT/41% audience
Wow. Just, wow. Episode 1 of “616” on Disney+ is fantastic. It’s a documentary about Japanese Spider-Man TV show from 1978. 100% worth an hour of your time. #slashtag
#slashtag do you want drama? Adrenaline, plot twist, etc? What about Tokyo Drift with Mario kart and world cup? Watch "hyperdrive" on Netflix! Executive produced by Charlieze Theron! This show is "old"... can't believe there is no 2nd season and UFC makes more money than this.
Hi @jeffcannata not sure if it has been brought up yet but watched “Boiling Point” via Hoopla Denver library and it just screamed you. All one take, high stakes, complex characters having interesting conversations and people doing their job! Welcome to CO! #slashtag
#slashtag Roy Choi's socially and environmentally conscious food show #BrokenBread S1E6 Watts episode ending was both shocking and revealing. Also has great restaurants suggestions mostly in CA.
For all Nicolas Cage fans, 1983s Valley Girl is a must watch. (Don't judge it by the terrible poster.) It is one of Cage's first movies, and it made me fall in love with him. #slashtagpic.twitter.com/qSIcLpMKpH
My wife and I binged this the other night and both agree that it is required viewing. Episodes are short (15 minutes) and engrossing... also adorable! #slashtagthedailybeast.com/netflixs-most-…
The way Jerrod Carmichael engages his audience in Rothaniel is masterful. They hang on every word, every pause. Must watch. Funny and emotional. #slashtag
You should check out Kotaro Lives Alone on #Netflix. Anime about a 4 year old who lives alone and how he affects everyone around him (kinda like Ted Lasso ) Sad, funny, inspiring. #slashtag
@jeffcannata Really hope you guys review and discuss Severance in detail on @thefilmcastpod. That last episode of the season was truly stunning as was the whole season #Slashtag
@thefilmcastpod hey Jeff, if you read this, Anthony was right... RANKING OF KINGS. I know you're not an anime guy but this is right at your wheelhouse.
I'm sure you'll like it too, Devindra. It's animated by the studio that did the first 3 seasons of Attack on Titan

Possible I missed it, but #slashtag on Season 2 of Dave, Lil Dicky's show on FX. Its hard to recommend a season of a show, particularly one that starts of the way this one does, but the second half is immaculate.
@thefilmcastpod@jeffcannata I suggest you give “Poy-row” another chance with Evil Under the Sun. #slashtag Peter Ustinov is the *best* Poirot, it’s directed by 007 director Guy Hamilton, and the cast is more interested in having a blast than figuring out whodunnit. pic.twitter.com/VfAFuPeCDW

Judd Apatow's new film, The Bubble. It's bad and not funny (except for maybe three jokes).
I went to the bathroom during this and when I got back to the couch only minutes later, I didn't remember I was watching it.
