Wanted (2016)
Possibly the best TV series ever
We just loved this series. It's witty, well written, wise, and exciting. The two main characters are delightful. The plot is imaginative. My wife and I are now looking for other TV shows and movies made by the same writers and directors. Superb acting. Why can't Netflix and Amazon find other shows and movies as good as Wanted? We could not bear to watch Veep and House of Cards. Maybe they need to pay their writers more?
The Brink (2015)
The best TV series ever
This hilarious series tells us more about American foreign policy than all the articles of the New York Times and the Washington Post put together. Every member of Congress should watch every episode of The Brink. HBO's decision not to do a second series is sad. Did Republicans in Congress object to the truth displayed in The Brink? Did the weapons industry object? Dwight Eisenhower warned us against the military-industrial- congressional complex. Did AIPAC object?
I loved Tim Robbins's acting. The dialogue was superb, so much better than the drivel that normally saturates Hollywood movies. Jack Black and all the other actors were just fine.
A friend of mine who speaks some of the languages of South Asia tells me that the movie got the politics just right.
