I was curious about that one. It has a few faces I have liked in the past so I will give it a few episodes just on that alone.

That's exactly what I'm doing. Figured with that cast it should be good. IMO it's so so.... I was expecting it to be darker.
Darker like this?
That was actually from Sons of Anarchy. I was happy to hear he was going to be on the show. I was laughing out of my mind when saw his role!

Haven't seen it but I recall riding my BMX bike 20+ miles to other towns through the country with about 2 bucks in my pocket and not coming back until dark back in the early 80's. Hmmm... maybe my parents wanted me gone?
Yeah, I caught the same feel from it. 1983 was a less scary place in the homeland. We only worried about being nuked

No they just weren't pusified like today's parents have been brainwashed to be by the media. I did the same when I was young. These days our parents would be jailed for neglect. "If" I even see a youth outside today 99% of the time they are walking with their phone literally in front of their face or on some razor scooter....neither of which are efficient modes of transportation. I was on a 800 acre fresh water lake yesterday and I saw one kid out with his dad. Pretty freaking sad if you ask me. I guess most of my generation raises their kids via TV screen and the comfort of a climate controlled room.
My Dad even jokes that I survived his multiple attempts to thin down the grocery budget. Dirt bikes, bicycle rides on back roads alone, and letting me explore 800 acres during the day with a 22 rifle and I always came home. After seeing some of the kids today; there are some who are not trapped inside but they are a rarity. I still laugh at the high school kids talking how tough they are playing football but cannot throw a single bail of hay.

Stranger Things on Netflix is good.. reminds me of a Goonies combined with X-Files... maybe a hint of Sandlot spilled in for measure. I'm on episode 5 or 6 and I'm enjoying it.
Finished it last night. Hints of Goonies, Stand By Me, ET, Firestarter, even Little Shop of Horrors.... good series, I definitely enjoyed it!

Yeah, Marty and his family are good people. But damn some of the people they help are just dumb and have no business living off the grid.

I was watching "Adam ruins everything" last night and the whole episode was about Hollywood and how fake everything is.... including the outdoors shows. I always knew they were scripted but the show on the people from Pennsylvania was a total joke. Either that was 100% produced or that family was 100% potato. Who the heck would try to move a family of 4 into an un-insulated shed that sits on cracked wooden beams.
