    Has anyone else been watching this? It's brilliant.

    Not familiar with it. Hypothetical roasts of characters from history?

    Yes. Jeff Ross is the roast master for all of them. For example, the Anne Frank (Rachel Feinstein) roast featured FDR (John Lovitz), Don Rickles (Mindy Rickles), and Hitler (Gilbert Gottfried) as roasters.

    It's certainly not for sensitive people.

    Haven't even heard of it. Sounds like it is made just for me.

    Gottfried as Hitler saying he was almost late because he thought he left his oven on, had me crying laughing

    And yet none of you will take one for the team and binge watch 2 seasons of "Killing Eve" because I'm dying to chat about this with somebody, anybody... even the Mom's Basement Dwellers that congregate round here. Whatevs.

    I don't got no Hulu or I'd watch it. Watching Chernobyl right now. How they make such a thing entertaining I don't know but they are.

    If I could figure out how to get the episodes off my DVR and send it to you I would. It's so good!!!!! Maybe Netflix will up Season 1 soon.

    And how I'm not laughing at british actors calling each other comrade is a serious feat. Great show so far. Didn't see last nights though. Wonder if they even aired a new episode on a holiday?

    I'll do it! I've heard good things about that.

    Have you watched Dead To Me on Netflix? Just finished that.

    I'm watching that too. So fucked up.

    I was doing a little reading after last night's episode, Russia still has 10 Chernobyl like reactors operating.

    Exactly. It works somehow. Mini spoiler alert....(that helicopter part looked real on my 65 inch tv from 12 feet anyway)

    Spoiler over....anyone seen Money Heist on Netflix?

    The wife and I watched it from the beginning in Spanish with English subtitles. It was excellent.

    Just for giggles I rewatched a few minutes with the English voiceover....yikes. I think it would still be good if you started it that way but not nearly as good.

    I'd do it!
    But the 4GLTE connection here where the boat is moored, is really slow. Too slow to stream anything.
    Of course this excuse is handy, for a non TV fan.

    I don't watch a lot of TV either and this one hooked me. Great acting.

    If anyone has Netflix, you probably already know this but they made a movie called " The Highwaymen" with Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson, outstanding acting. Just such a great movie (although very violent).

    I just measured my internet speed here in Scappoose via Verizon. About 200 Kbps!!!
    Last fall it was about 6 Bbps! I wonder what the hell happened?
