I just found out the wife has never seen The Sopranos. Not a single second of it. Told her I'm calling a divorce lawyer tomorrow, I have no idea who she is anymore... 😆
That is an every few years rewatch.

You need to educate her. And the eldest too, she's smart enough and old enough to get it.
 
Knight of the 7 kingdoms.
The Pitt may be the best TV show ever.
Also just watched House of Dragons, it's better than GOF.
For non conflict TV we watched every episode of Great British Baking Show (dang those brits are cheerful and polite!).
I also liked "House of Dragons", especially because of the atmosphere and characters. And if you want something more calm after all these intrigues and battles, then "Great British Baking Show" is a really great choice - it's nice to see a show where the participants support each other instead of constant conflicts. By the way, for those who are looking for new series and ratings, the site https://www.imdb.com/ can be useful, there it is easy to find similar projects and read audience reviews.

I didn't like Knight of the Seven Kingdoms at all. It was cancelled after that one very short season. House of Dragons is good and loved GoT
 
Yep new For All Mankind. Few other shows on Apple I'd like to watch too. Waiting for the new Ted Lasso before picking it up for a couple months.
They have a spin off of For All Mankind. I getting close to picking it up for a month or 2.
 
Star City..it's as good or better (so far) as For All Mankind.

Apple has been cranking out a lot of good looking originals over the last 6 months. I have a few shows to finish then I'm going to grab Apple for a few months.
 
Prime Deal. @jcam222 Only thing Apple has better video and audio using their app. From what I read using it on the amazon app dont get Dolby Atmos or Dolby Vision if that matters. I much prefer Dolby Atmos for my system. Not sure if going to get with deal. Might be worth paying the extra $6.

Interesting. I have been a Roku user for decades, but the last couple ultras had annoying issues. I may switch to the Apple TV 4K streamer when the next version come out.

I use the Roku Ultra for all my streaming and works great. What kind of problems?

I would suggest to also check out the latest Google 4K streamer; plus it is currently on sale on Amazon. It remembers everything you watch, and I like being able to search for a show or movie, and have it tell me everywhere I can watch it.

The previous years Ultra I returned and waited a year for the next one because the power light was blazing bright and distracting while watching TV. Could not be turned off.

The current ones are last years, and now after the power cycles from an outage, I have mess with it or it freezes up and reboots over and over within seconds. This problem is a PITA.

I have enjoyed them for years, but these last two might be better when they work. And Fox bought them out for 22 billion, so who know if they will make garbage or improvements.

That sucks. I been using Roku for years without issues. Might be worth reaching out to them.

that's not even possible, another huge annoyance. they have support blogs for support, and they are more worthless than Bots. We have three, only one is mostly problem free. The third falls of the WiFi every other day. My phone shows plenty of signal...My relationship with Roku may have reached its end.

AI says the Apple streamer is better. I'll do more research.
