Stuff I watched recently...

[Caballero]

I will join you in that disappointment. At least it looks like everyone kung-fu fights in it.

It's got the blonde warrior chick from Vikings in it. At least some eye candy...

BIG FRIGGINN MISTAKE!!! I put on "The Boys" first episode for the ex-wife and walked away into another room.

(Now she wants to divorce me again!)

Hmm... On the other hand... I give her $1K per month... ...ya gotta luv them "Supers" huh!

@Caballero: Thanks Again!

Umm... she watched the whole first episode of "Jett" ...umm I think I see now

I am seven episodes into Perpetual Grace LTD, and I still don't know if I like it or not...

After finishing that series I can't say it left a lasting impression on me.

About done with the Wu Assassins, too. Actually not that bad.

I'm on episode 9 of Wu. Just a time killer for me.

Ditto. Silly Highlander plotline added nothing as did suddenly introducing a bunch of new characters mid way through. If they were smart they would have had the main guy go around helping strangers a la Ku Fung to fill in the spaces around the main story. Also the trend towards streaming services giving you stuff that could play on network censorship-wise makes you wonder what the point of streaming is?

[Stehle]

I do stream a lot, but also d/l a lot. The 1080p or 4K'ish movies and TV shows can be a bit sticky streaming, so I choose the latter over the former.

(My internet speed is only about 400mbs and that may be the issue.)

Most streaming boxes have a 100mbs maximum limit I was told.

"The Handmaids Tale" season ending made me cry, I knew there would be at least a season 4.

Nope... 400Mbps is plenty to stream anything out there, but if you or others in the household are hogging all the bandwidth, downloading and multiple internet streaming 4k/HD, eg Netflix, then maybe you would have an issue Stehle, i have 1GB speed now but before i had 500Mbps, and as long as i wasn't downloading constantly on Usenet, it was really using nothing close.. Again it also depends on the Internal streaming software as well??..
As for Media Streamers... I would say any latest one automatically has a Gigabyte card in them, even all the latest video game consoles have them as well.....

What media software are you using to internally stream something?? Or are you connecting a portable HD directly to the TV??

Being honest... Truthfully i do find that most of the internet streaming or cable are not really true 4k or SuperHD anyways, saying that, if i download a true BD/4K rip of a movie and stream it direct with a port HD plugged in (Remember i am talking a 80gig rip!!), it is day and night when you are really close to the tv, and the sound is more accurate, meaning the channels (i only have 7.1) are accurate, but if you are 6ft back at least from the tv it is hard to tell the difference....

Awwww let all that estrogen out of your system...

Okay, yes you are correct. It seems I may have a router bottle neck (or limit) I will get a new one soon. Everything I have is hardwired. Yes, at times I d/l massive and multiple files at times while I'm steaming. Hooking my new Dell directly to the modem I get about 463ishmbs+, though I only pay for 400mbs.

My streaming box software is I guess hybrid mix of LibreELEC and KODI software maintained by a close friend with a lot of decent sites linked or sourced. (He maintains it, as it all gibberish to me.) "Every network, all the time." he sez.
So... that's all good, but big shite, because my asshat ways does suffer by freezing big video at times. The BluRay shite anything at least 25gb or bigger I transfer with 3.1 USB to a 128gb. thumb drive than plug it into one of the four ports on my box. (I could go directly to the ROKU 4K and plug it in, but it may have an issue with a few files, so I don't bother.)

"...are you connecting a portable HD directly to the TV??" Hmm... No haven't gone through the wall for the DirecTV dvr with Cat 6 or 7 yet. Streaming Box IS hardwired and goes to ROKU with HDMI cable.

A new spinal issue in the neck 3 weeks ago and an incarcerated hernia (so the doctors tell he) are stopping me from doing much of the things I'd like to do right now, so here I sit pecking on the keyboard. Until the pains too much.
("incarcerated"...weird frigging word for it... almost makes me laugh, but I really shouldn't... almost though.) Long story there.
