The locales are well done, and it's a natural showplace for character actors - I really like the guys doing the Penguin, Edward Nigma and Falcone.people called me an idiot for burning popcorn in the microwave, but i know the real truth. - nullnor

Making a Murderer, holy fuck.If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

Amazing year for TV shows. Best yet?
Fargo season 2 was outstanding. Best show of 2015 by a margin, and that's saying something considering the standard of competition. The fact that it's better than season 1 is a feat in itself. That Better Call Saul, Narcos and Wolf Hall were my favourite shows of 2015 ... all of them "new".
Honorable mentions for Rectify, Jessica Jones, Transparent, The Americans, GoT, Mr Robot, House of Cards.
I've yet to see Season 2 of The Returned (French version), Season 3 OITNB, the latest series of Veep and Silicon Valley, and the final seasons of Hannibal, Mad Men and Justified.
I thought that Man in The High Castle was good, but not in the same class as the best of 2015. BUT it kept me watching ... I kept turning the damn page. That's worth a lot considering my "TV Show Attention Span". Can't say the same about some other shows.
I'll catch up with Homeland at some point ... it keeps losing me, and I'm still not up to speed with the latest season of The Walking Dead. They've killed off too many characters I grew to like ... and lame replacements.

We watched the Bill Murray Xmas Special and the Black Mirror Xmas special the other night, very strange juxtaposition"You know what's wrong with America?

Here is an interesting article with more details. Don't read this if you haven't watched the documentary.
I also watched Narcos this weekend (I didn't get out much) and that was great.I'm unconsoled I'm lonely, I am so much better than I used to be.
