Quote from: gallsman on Today at 12:21:56 PMHe's a prat! Bought a Texas ranch and decided to write it into his show FFS.

I gave up on Yellowstone halfway through season 2 as I thought it was terrible. Pick up tidbits here and there of what unfolded afterwards on YouTube and whatnot and it sounds like it only got more preposterous.
You could be onto something there- 1923 season 1 was very good, was set up to be a brilliant second season which was poor, Landman the same so far. 1883 was excellent and only 1 season.

Seems like he has a very good idea, takes it so far and then has no idea how to wrap it up or develop it further. Probably far too many projects going on at the same time as well.

It's very strange as he's shown with some of his movies that he's a very very good writer. Sicario is one of the best movies of the last 25 years for me. Hell or high water is great as well.

Someone here put it very well a few months ago. His TV shows aren't dramas, or any sort of "prestige TV" if you don't mind the term. They're big budget soap operas.

He's also clearly a complete egomaniac. Has he written himself a character for Landman yet?

Set myself up with a soundbar and surround sound system for Christmas and it really makes a difference and sounds great for Stranger Things , wish I bought one sooner.

not to take away from the TV shows topic, but what kind of sound bar / surround sound setup did you go for given your wiring prowess. All bluetooth?
