I'm really enjoying season 2 of Peacemaker with John Cena on HBO. 

Tim Meadows has a role in it and has been cracking me up whenever he has a scene.
Yup

Just finished Mayor of Kingstown Season 4.  Lots of action but feel like there were too many story lines.  Maybe they could have removed say the Callhan story and focused on Frank Moses and the drugs.

Started watching Justified on HULU. It?s entertaining enough.

I'm watching Killing Eve for the first time.  It's fun, but midway through Season 2 it's starting to get a little stagnant.

I haven?t seen the final episode of Stranger Things yet - will probably watch tonight. I suspend all logic when I watch this series and I accept that I?m not going to fully be able to follow what is happening. Surprisingly it works for me. I like most of the characters and there is enough entertainment value in watching them that I generally enjoy the series. This season is probably the hardest for me to follow and it?s downright silly that the characters survive the *dogs* (at least so far) when the *dogs? seem viscous and invincible when attacking anyone else. But nonetheless it captures my attention and that?s worth at least 3 stars out of 5 to me. 

One thing that I?m curious about. The scene where Will reveals his homosexuality definitely got to me, I am a sucker for scenes where people show compassion and acceptance  - so I liked it. But i was definitely curious as to whether this seemed anachronistic to anyone. Would a group of people of multiple generations in 1990 (or thereabout) have readily embraced and accepted Will coming out as they unanimously did. I was 32 in 1990 and working in a middle school. It?s really difficult to recall precisely when the shift in society occurred (still not totally accepting but a far cry from where it was when I was a kid) in which you could expect some measure of acceptance. 1990 far preceded marriage equality and my thinking is that in 1990 the country would have been very divided on that issue. Kids in the middle school I worked at were using gay slurs without inhibition (of course adults would correct when heard) and I?m sure that any boy who came out where I worked would have been ostracized badly. But maybe I?m off on this. I just bring it up because I think rewriting history on a topic like this probably doesn?t do any good, though had there been any non-acceptance it would not have played well at all. It?s like pretending that racism wasn?t pervasive in 1850. Homophobia was still widely prevalent in 1990 if my memory is accurate.

I have started watching Copenhagen Test with Simu Liu and so far, it's pretty intriguing. I am only two episodes so not sure where it will go. The premise is that there's these two secret agencies that collects information and another that is in charge of operation (like super secret CIA and NSA). They find out there is a mole and realize that it's from an analyst that actually has some kind of biotechnology on his system that allows a hacker to see and hear everything from him - hence the mole. They decide to let him go on while they try to find the source of the hacker.

It's a complicated premise but it makes sense and the whole espionage thing is pretty interesting. Even what you think are some plot holes, they actually go back and explain some of those bits as the show goes on.

I feel like it's only going to get more complicated and trippy, but so far, I am on the edge of my seat. I will recommend if you like spy thriller. It's on Peacock.
Baby Jesus!

Feel like January and February has some good shows returning and starting. Shrinking comes back towards the end of January.  The Pitt season two comes back next week. Paradise in Hulu comes back towards the end of February. And while Game of Thrones has gone downhill I will still give A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms a chance which starts up in January. And if you want some reality TV then Traitors is also starting back up next week too on Peacock. I am excited about having each of these to look forward to.

With the 2nd season of Fallout recently launched by Prime, I decided to watch the 1st season again (2024).  I am not a gamer and had never heard of the game Fallout.  As a huge fan of scifi, I enjoyed the craziness of the 1st season and am about to start the 2nd season.  Not for everyone, but Rotten Tomatoes gave the 1st season a 94% critical rating.

It's my all-time favorite game series.  I thought season one was great.  Season two hasn't started off with quite the same vibe, but it's early.
