Come on Zenny, get your references right. Kevin Costner!
Maybe they can make a remake with Mariah Carey and Steven Seagal. Or maybe Dolly Parton, I think she originally sang “I will always love you”.
My god though, the last thing we need is a remake of that horrible, dragged out movie.
I’d rather see Man On Fire, but based on how it ends there could be no series.
Re:Preacher, Season 1:great. Season 2: blah. I now have low expectations.
Where did we last keave off story wise on Preacher?
Watching "A very English Scandal" a 3 part drama about the Liberal MP Jeremy Thorpe's affair with Norman Scott that threatened to derail his political career in the late 60's and 70's. I remember the controversy at the time. It's very good and Hugh Grant is superb as Thorpe. Based on the book by John Preston.
I've been meaning to watch that for some time. Hugh Grant is a superb actor, agreed. I think what's rather pathetic is that it was controversy then, which is understood as a product of its time, but it still is now. From politics to corporate affairs. As our idiot in chief would say, SAD!
Isn't that the teen drama with the girl that commits suicide? Not sure if it's wise exposing teenagers to that kind of material.

Holy smokes (pun sort of intended ...
), it's fantastic. I'd say if you liked S1 of True Detective, Mindhunters, it's definitely worth your time.
From Wikipedia:
Watched the first 6 EPs, finishing it tonight. S2 has been ordered, it will be a different story, don't want to say much as it could spoil S1.
Originally aired on USA Network (of all places), but S1 is currently on Netflix.

While it's not really "TV", (I watched it on my desktop) the last thing I watched was Kevin Smith's "Hollyweed" pilot. It was really funny (if you're a Smith fan). You can watch it free at the address below on an embedded Youtube. Definitely worth a watch, I laughed a lot. If you like it, and want to see more, you can help fund the rest of the season for as little as $1.99 an episode. I did. I'd really like to see more.

Sharp Objects, a new mini series on HBO based on the Gillian Flynn novel. Starring Amy Adams, Patricia Clarkson, Chris Messina and the incredible Sophia Lillis as the younger Amy Adams character (she was Beverly in the remake of It!)
First episode was brilliant, I'll C&P from Wikipedia to provide a synopsis:

The ides of July is re-watch time for me... so, season 2 of The Wire, the underside of the unions at the port of Baltimore intersects with the underside of B'more itself, triggering repercussions everywhere: systemic corruption, power politics, personal tragedies.
If you're only ever going to watch one season of that, that's the one. If you watch that one and want more, season 4 is my other favorite of the five. First episode will hook ya.
