Featured in The 75th Primetime Emmy Awards (2024)
After he recovered, the series went back into production. Bridges referred to the return as going back after a "long weekend" on a podcast in July 2022..
Well, it not only met those expectations but exceeded them in every way
I was really looking forward to watching The Old Man ever since I saw the first trailer trailer. I’m a fan of spy thrillers and Jeff Bridges so I had high expectations going in.
The acting, writing, directing, etc
Are all as good as it gets, FX always puts out great content and this show is no different. The only bad thing about this show is we have to wait a week between episodes, I wish they released all them at once like they do on Netflix but since it’s on Network tv I get it.
Binge watching has ruined me because I just hate waiting a week between episodes now
I’m definitely looking forward to season two of this and just hope it continues to be as good as this season was.
