We’ve been enjoying watching some shows from the 2010s. Back when a show would only take a year between seasons (for the most part) and seasons had at least 10 episodes.
Some good ones i never got around to watching until now: Anomal Kingdom, Orphan Black, Southland.
Orphan Black has fantastic performances from the lead actress, handling multiple roles very convincingly.
Started watching the beast in me last night, really very good, Claire danes and matthew rhys are a compelling pairing, only two episodes in but I think this one’s gonna be special…
welll… we all can freely have interpretations and mine is no more valid for sure,
but I see the protagonist rather not as unable to get along with anyone else, rather than just being embittered and grown distant by the way his writing job ended up, becoming rich writing nonsense would challenge anyone to question their relation with their customers, I think… I mean she gets on well with her audience, never being mean to them… but kinda splitting hairs… maybe just 'cos I like the series so much 
Oh totally and I didnt mean it critically, I really do think it’s interesting to have her be a pessimistic, mistrusting grouch vs the hivemind of contentment 
Stranger Things Season 5 tonight.
i belatedly realized that one reason Carol projects so much hate onto the hive (consciously or subconsciously) is because it treats her exactly like Helen treated her.
at the airport, she guilts Helen into rearranging the display so her book is on the top row. which Helen dutifully complies with
at the ice hotel, even though Carol does nothing but complain about the room and the bed and the cold, Helen refuses to take the bait and only wants to focus on the natural wonder of seeing the northern lights through their window
Pluribus is so good.
I’m absolutely loving Pluribus. No one makes shows that look like Vince Gilligan.
When Carol was reading the excerpt from her book, I told my wife she sounds like a Diana Gabaldon-esque fantasy-smut author. When she moved the Gabaldon books off the shelf for hers, I was cackling.
For me i’ve been watching a lot of early 70’s stuff. The Persuaders. Department S. But The Twilight Zone from the 60’s is my all time favourite. Rod Sterling. Bernard Herrmann soundtracks as well in some.
I’ve been watching the new episodes of Stranger Things over and over. I think they’re knocking this last season out of the park so far.
Oh my god yes. I wonder why it does not get more hyped.
A slow pace is not for everyone.
