We have a lot of time lol. Started watching Will Trent on hulu (to catch up) and it's pretty good. I know the lead actor is from Puerto Rico, playing someone from Georgia, but I hear Louisiana whenever he talks lol.

DotRen, I like Will Trent and his background story will be revealed during the season. I enjoy the show.

DotRen, we just finished the first season of 3 Body Problem. So good! Hooked by episode 2. Can't wait to see what they do with the other two books.

DotRen, I just watched the recent episode of Will Trent and the actor does sound like he's from New Orleans. Interesting. I found this picture of him on IMDB.com; he looks so different!

Just finished The Feud: Capote vs the Swans. Very good. Also just finished "The Regime" with Kate Winslet. Very strange, but very good. And I'm watching "Shogun". 95% of it is in subtitles so you really have to pay attention. Also very good.

If you have Apple TV, watch The Big Door Prize. Season 2 starts sometime this month.

We started "Fallout" on Amazon Prime last night. Episode 1 seemed confusing because they introduced so many characters and story lines. It's a Sci-Fi series and while DH and I are a little confused with the start, it's interesting enough to stick with it. Plus, it's starring one of our favorite actors, Walter Goggins. An interesting thing is the background music is usually popular American music from the 1930s, 40s and 50s. Think Cole Porter, The Andrews Sisters, Billie Holiday, Peggy Lee, Ella Fitzgerald, and Frank Sinatra.

linda72, we watched episode 1, too - interesting! Shockingly, we know nothing about the game, so JD had to explain...everything...so we'll have to watch it again, without the constant commentary lol

DotRen, I may need to talk with JD too. We knew nothing about this game! LOL! Reading recaps online helped explain some of the story. This series may not be the best for "elderly" viewers! LOL!

luanne, we're really enjoying Shogun too. FX on Netflix has an option for English Dub that we've been watching. Pat couldn't stand the subtitles saying, "It's too much pressure!" LOL! DotRen, linda72, I'm going to have to check out Fallout now. Is JD available for tutoring? lol

So funny. I adore subtitles because then I don't have to tell Mr. Lani "turn it down!" every five minutes. His refrain is "back it up and turn it up". I told him I'm going to put it on his tombstone.

DotRen , linda72 , I'm going to have to check out Fallout now. Is JD available for tutoring? lol I don't know if I have that option. However in most cases I prefer the subtitles because the voices are more authentic. Plus, it does make me really pay attention.
Side story. We bought the DVDs for the Swedish mini series of the "Girl With the Dragon Tattoo". You had the option of English dubbed or subtitles. The dubbing was SO bad that we turned it back to subtitles.
