AHh, so more letters that add nothing. At least IMHO, or in my humble opinion.

I write for a living so intentional lack of brevity annoys me.

"IMESHO" is more self-deprecating, i.e. translate it to "I think my opinion is really important" but the writer acknowledges their conceit. IMHO is probably meant to be the same but like I said I'm old school.

In that situation, I usually go for 30 rock, Kimmy Schmidt, or third rock from the sun.

That's one of my life long goals. To be on live PD! Not for anything bad just like a speeding ticket or tint or something. Would be great!

Cops has always been one of my favorite shows. But the old episodes from the 90's/early 00's are much better because they showed a lot more "reality" compared to today's versions which are all sanitized.

Live PD was cancelled at the beginning of June.

I only know this because a few people I work with watched it religiously.

Anyone mention Upload (Prime Video)?

Just watched season 1 last night. I really like this one, the humor is approaching the Idocracy standard. The business mashups are fantastic. And the story is pretty good to. It really isn't often a show gives me a genuine good laff at stupid society trends.

Not perfect, but also not bad, kind of a mix of Gattaca/Idiocracy/Caligula.
I'm about 5 episodes into Cursed, pretty trash. But feel like I need to finish it at this point.

Umbrella Academy S2 was good.

But i hate the massive cliffhangers every season. I wish I had watched S1 to catch up instead of just relying on the recap bc i feel like i missed the impact of some things in s2.

"The Great" is a great watch. And it seems historically accurate so far (4 episodes).

Its now gonna be even worse since a lot of TV shows will be delayed heavily. Westworld usually takes 2+ years to film without a pandemic so I can't even imagine how long I'm gonna have to wait to see what happens now after the season finale cliffhanger.
