Thanks for Inbetweeners! Holy balls that may have been the funnies show I've ever watched. Burned through both seasons in a day.

Netflix streaming has 'Ip Man' and 'Ip Man 2' which are chinese produced movies about one of their real life folk hero martial artists living in the 1930's-1940s. The movies are set in the period but are not representative of the period so its not depressing; you'll be seeing that period in China through rose colored glasses for sure. They were fillmed recently. The kung fu is amazing and doesn't appear to be 'sped up' and there is no silly wire-flying bull-pucky. The movies are an interesting reflection of how the chinese viewed the japanese who invaded and made me think of our own anti-japanese propaganda during WW2. The movies are solid subtitled kung-fu movies and are worth a look.

I have had Ip Man in my queue for a while, but haven't gotten to it yet. I'll check it out.

Both are some of the best KungFu I've ever seen. Just amazing and a great story too.

Just made the MOST epic gumbo. (stay with me)

Flawless dark roux. Best andoullie. Fresh chicken stock and herbs.....

Can't honestly say which is better............ the gumbo or breaking Bad.

I started watching "reaper" over a year ago and just came back to it tonight for a couple episodes and forgot it was quiet entertaining.. it's a kid who's parents sell his soul to the devil. now he has to collect demon soul's that escaped from hell for the devil

 

[cheezydemon3]

Didt read all threads. Anyone mention Beer Wars? If they did and you have not seen it. Watch it.

 

[edmanster]

Finished "reaper" very funny.. started watching another sitcom "18 to life" and enjoyed the first couple episodes..

If you appreciate good science fiction, you might like Stargate Universe (SGU). The last spinoff of that particular show, it was much better written. Only problem with series was that it never had a big enough following and was cancelled prematurely. Kind of left you hanging, if you know what I mean.

Battlestar Galactica was the best sci-fi ever. Considering watching it again. I may check out SGU, missing an ending is a near deal killer!

We aren't talking about the original series, are we? Lol. My wife and I just started watching the new one. Definitely starts off with a bang.

That is the one.........is that relationship stable????

Sight unseen, she is a KEEPER!!!!!!!


That show is the Star Wars for.....some generation.

It is AMAZING.

 

[richkev]

Lol, she really is a keeper. We also just finished Babylon 5. That is a great, low budget sci-fi show from 80's. Unfortunately, only the first season is streaming and the rest on disc. I hate when they do that.

Tell me about it!!

Breaking Bad, Sons of Anarchy, The Walking Dead,......(still watching BB, but getting close enough to get nervous!)

Honestly, Breaking Bad and (the new) Battlestar Galactica are head and shoulders above anything else (tv) that I have seen so far on netflix.

Stupid Scify channel. Do away with what could have been the great farewell to the one of the greatest science fiction series of all times, but hey, let put on wrestling instead.

I'm writing another letter.... it had Robert Carlyle in it!.... Stupid Scifi, SG1 is an amazing series.... wrestling...

 

[HoppyDaze]

Is Battlestar Galactica only three seasons long?

 

[jsguitar]

Well, thanks to you guys I've watched all of Breaking Bad on Netflix, then I watched all of the newest ones on Amazon Instant Video, ....and now I've just bought an RV.

I think I have it figured out too. We should compare notes. Can I be your Jesse Pinkman?

That is a testament.

They are all on Netflix if that is what you are asking. Seems like there were 4, but I could be wrong.

Lol!!! Excellent comedic timing and subtle delivery of the punchline!!!!

You were kidding, right?

I have to admit, I never realized that there were so many fellow sci-fi geeks on this forum. Farscape is one of my all time favorites. You can stream the whole series. It is another series that had a great story, but apparently was too expensive to continue producing. They ended the series really stupidly and because of the ensuing uproar, made a 2 hour movie that rounded it out, nicely. It was called the Peacekeeper Wars and is on disc.

Here's one for ya that's on Netflix.. lexx (tales from a parallel universe) I watched it a long time ago when blockbuster first started the dvd by mail program.. I found it on Netflix a couple weeks ago..

 

[509inc]

Darkman II Return of Durant and Darkman III Die Darkman Die are on Netflix.

These movies are great. Wish the first Darkman was still available on Netflix

 

[richkev]

Edmanster, I did see Lexx! Pretty bizarre show, I may have to go back and watch it, again. I seem to remember a sex slave and a dead assassin. How can you go wrong?

 

[TxBrew]

Anyone else into ww2 documentaries? Thought so!

The Goebbels Experiment is pretty great. Some real insight into the mind of the Nazi party officials.
