Good show. Worth the time. A dizzying number of awards and nominations. I thought the series final was on target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiFlyer Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) I started watching the 5 episode limited series "Waco the Aftermath" IMDB of 7.3 today. I am finding it to be an interesting watch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waco:_The_Aftermath Obviously, this is about the events that occurred subsequent to the massacre at the Branch Davidian Complex. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waco_siege There is also a 6 part limited series called "Waco" IMDB 7.9 about the initial siege that I thought was excellent. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waco_(miniseries) I may have a little more interest in this particular topic than most others. My father's (he died when I was very young) family had a small ranch/farm about 30 miles East of Waco (horseshoe capitol of the world). I would spend Summers down there at times. Grandma was a Bible thumping serious lady. She also served up icy cold Dr. Pepper and freshly harvested watermelon for me on the side porch on hot Summer afternoons. In short, I witnessed personally the religious frever that occurs in some of the rural areas of the US. I am proud to say I made it through probably completely unaffected (well at least with regard to the religious frever part). Sorry Grandma, but it just did not make sense. These are Netflix shows, but I grab them from IPT. Edited July 22, 2023 by ChiFlyer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, I pull most everything from IPT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree they are excellent entertainment and we'll worth a look. Never watched the 2nd series, binged the first part when COVID started. Little known fact…..Titus’ brother was killed in Chiang Mai many years ago, thieves spiked his drink with enough heroin to kill an elephant Edited July 24, 2023 by Golfingboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the tip. I was a huge fan of the "I Claudius" series that ran in the US on Public Television many years ago. It will be great to get another take on Livia who was portrayed as a total villainess in the earlier series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillearly Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 The Wham documentary on Netflix was fairly good ... AR seems like a good bloke who was genuinely happy for GM to go solo at the end , the press used to give him such a bad time saying he had a free ride , but Wham wouldn't have happened without him , nor would GMs career 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
