Netflix is going all in on stand-up comedy, I guess. There is some great stuff online-- I just finished Ari Shaffir-- wayyy funnier than I thought it was going to be. Highly recommended.

It seems like outside of 3-5 of the real top comedians, the cost to Netflix get one of these stand up specials online compared to other original content that has to seem almost like getting it for free.

They gave Dave Chappell all the money.

Just burned through Ozark. Folks compare it to Breaking Bad for the general trajectory, and I definitely see the obvious comparisons, but this show is dark. Way darker than BB, but also pretty fun. Jason Bateman is awesome in everything he does and really comes off like a good guy even though he's objectively not the greatest guy here. He's no WW and I think that's intentional. The pacing is way slower and, with hour-long episodes, it's harder to binge. It's a fun show, but if BB is an A+ this is probably a B or a B-.

Too much good tv. I had never even heard of this.

I am on Episode 4 now. I am really enjoying it!! It is darker and the music helps set that tone throughout.. the tint in the film itself lends to that darkness.

Jason Bateman not only stars in this but also is the Director is pretty cool. He is awesome on so many levels..

Highly Recommend!

I'm a Sam Elliot fan so I started watching The Ranch. Definitely formulaic but after a couple of episodes it grew on me. There are some seriously funny moments oftentimes revolving around Elliot's interaction with his sons and estranged wife. The show also has some soul. If you decide to give it a whirl it starts to hit its stride after the first couple of episodes.

Saw two epis of Ozark. Can't decide if i want to put up with my husband's tsk tsking when the F bombs fly. I do like that he's a smart character, and I've always loved Laura Linney, a fantastic actress.

When did Esai Morales get handsome? Now he looks like Clooney.

Not yet.

Finished Ozarks. WOW!! Great season.

Shaka: The Ranch is great. Love the interaction of Kutcher and his Brother from the 70's show. It does grow on you.

Seems like it could be clever and funny for a single episode. 8 parts on who drew the dicks? Not sure...

Disney should have done this years ago. I sign up for Playstation Vue in the fall when football starts so I can get the espn channels -- and the other sports channels to a lesser extent.

Yeah- I think that Disney stream is a bad idea, though, unless it's a 5 dollar or under price point. I mean, I like having the Disney shows on Netflix, but really I would own the ones I would actually watch for the most part, too. I don't see myself inking a subscription to get Disney's table scraps.

The ESPN stream, however, I like. The downside is that odd FoxSports1 or whatever football game that nobody can get. They really are extremely late with this, too, since they are hemorrhaging $ as it now stands.
