My take on it- if you get/like Mike Myers comedy you'll enjoy it, if not, then you won't.Mike Myers has a new series on Netflix that just started - will give it a go tonight.

No, that’s 12 o’clock High.
Paul Dean and I worked a shift together at the Sheriff's Office many years ago. I recognized him as a newspaper columnist, and Vietnam War correspondent. It was great talking to him. He had been a major player in a SOCAL Commemorative Air Force chapter and key to the acquisition and and restoration of the C-46 China Doll. Paul was a RAF pilot and flew Hurricanes, Spitfires and Vampires, among others. He once dead sticked a Vampire onto the runway landing hard gear up. He said the plane practically disintegrated as it slid down the runway ( the pod fuselage was made of wood). He was unhurt. He finished his formal writing career at the Robb Report. So why is this post not in Griz's catch all aviation thread?
Just finished it and I’m torn. Great acting but I hate the filming (that awful too dark style) and the story line feels like the writers are stumbling toward an ending someone else has already thought of. But I’ll probably jump into the hole and see what happens in Season 2.
Fun fact…the show is filmed primarily in Albuquerque NM. The scenes where they are riding across the valley up to “the void” is done only a few yards from I-25 just north of the city and they are riding over what used to be Coronado (4AC) Airport where I saw my first ever airplane crash (very bad landing). Across the highway is a new, massive, film studio.
Concur. Not bad. I give it 8/10 so far. Based on a book series written by retired SEAL Jack Carr.
