I find I’m watching House of the Dragon out of habit now. Story line is just not compelling. Bogged down.

Same...Hopefully it gets some "better everything" if it gets another season.

We still havent started Sugar S2, latest season of Morning Show, latest season of Friends and Neighbors and some others to catch up on.

Watched Obsession the other night. Wow, very good, clever, but very stressful.

The Reacher stuff is not really my thing. But I do like the actor in this, Alan Ritchson.

Top 5 in the genre for me.

Ummmm. ... don't have the words to explain how moronic the season finale of Cape Fear was. It was almost surreal how stupid it was. I was embarrassed for the entire cast. 🤮

Glad I bailed before the end of episode two.

Watched the Bombing of Pan Am 103 the other night. I wouldn't call it awesome, but it's my kinda thing. Love me some real-world investigative stuff. It's a little like Chernobyl in that way, but not quite as good. It gets bogged down in too much detail the last couple episodes, but I learned a lot I didn't know before.

On Season 3 of Banshee. It’s so over the top at times.

Saw The Odyssey last night. Truly one of the most epic theater experiences of my life. Couple of minor quibbles about too-long fight scenes, but we were all slack-jawed by it. Odysseus is a badass.
