We Were the Lucky Ones, based on a novel about a Jewish Polish family during the Holocaust. It’s ok, not great; a little too clean and some things aren’t credible but, hey, it’s tv.

Series 6 - 8 .... the best crime series i`ve seen in quite some time .... all storylines are properly explained and the movie characters remain credible until the very end .... a Yakuza thriller of high merit for sure ....

Just got to 'The Bear'.

Wasn't sure how it would stack up against all the hype and plaudits. 

A couple of episodes in and I can that it might

I really enjoyed the first season--if you like the show so far I think you'll enjoy the rest of that season.

I haven't gotten to Season 2 yet. . . still hoping for a time when Lucinda will decide to watch it with me.

Season 1 was OK if maybe a bit unbelievable. I mean, really, who knew so many people could be such massive assholes in one tiny restaurant?

My wife & I did not like Season 2 very much, particularly the Christmas episode, which was over the top in nutty behaviors.

We liked both seasons of The Bear. Looking forward to season 3.
