📽 /🎵 "Mobland" Paramount+

One episode in and this looks like it might have some potential.

Pierce Brosnan, Hellen Mirren, Tom Hardy... @Brandon Van de Graaff our old friend, Tommy Flannigan (SOA) shows up playing an Irish gangster role.

I thought about giving that a shot. Hopefully, Flanagan can broaden his acting wings and find his way in such a role.

A mix between The Soprano's and Ray Donovan is my early impression.

I just noticed one of the producers of this series is David Glasser. We're getting into real world, 'underworld,' shit with him. He has mob links, convictions...worked right under Harvey Weinstein.

2 episodes in, this is a good one so far.

Spoiler: After E2

I was pleasantly surprised at Helen Mirren playing a part in the Yellowstone series. But good lord, in this role? She's bat shit crazy.

@rammerjammer Doug, continuing the conversation about TV series and The Sopranos. If they don't mess with the writing, this is also a good one.

I do not have Paramount, but may spring for it in order to watch Land Man......and now this.

Love me some mafia crime stuff. As I stated Soprano's is my all time favorite series ever. Any time Goodfella's is on, I watch it too.

Can you just imagine if the Brits/Irish /Scots could legally have guns.. some of their movies and series are more violent than ours..

Said this before. Buy the $99 W+ thing. I needed a few throw away 7 1/2" circular blades...delivered, free. I'm out of kitchen bags...be here tomorrow. No shipping. I need a few bags of potting soil...I ain't carryin' it. Free shipping. Dog food. Free shipping. It's a county law that your grass clippings have to be in paper bags. Free shipping. I need to replace a few gaskets in the main hallway toilet. Free shipping.

I know...$99 at the get go...but good lord, Doug. I got a pork tenderloin today (NOT from Walmart) that's about five or six pounds. I realized I was running out of freezer bags. Ordered, they'll be here today sometime. Dude. You order fertilizer and tell them to leave on the this side of the house...and it's done. That C-note a year has turned me into a lazy guy. Or, a smart guy?

The W+ gives you Paramount. .

@rammerjammer let me add something. I have found no discernable difference in Liptons Onion Soup mix at Walmart vs Whole Foods; or Publix. I look at something like Bush's Chili Beans...years ago I gave up looking at why Harris Teeter had higher prices for a can of beans when Food Lion was 100 yards away. Family Dollar, in the middle of both...

When writers can have a protagonist and antagonist in the same character? Maeve (Helen Mirren.) There are some well written characters in this series.

Caught up over the last two days...well worth the watch.

I binged watched it last weekend when the wife was out of town... I've enjoyed it for the most part. I do hope they all die in the end other than Hardy's character (Harry) and he goes off and opens up an ice cream shop in a small town on the coast of Italy, just outside of Naples.

That's where I am; watched E7 a few weeks ago and have the final three left. " Previous comment still stands" makes me wonder who gets "unalived."
