Decided to rewatch The Man in the High Castle.  The show explores a what-if scenario where the Axis powers won World War II and took control of the U.S.  The Eastern half and Midwest is ruled by Nazi Germany.  The West Coast is governed by the Empire of Japan, with a neutral zone along the Rocky Mountains.  If you like dystopian thrillers, this show is for you.  When the pilot aired in 2015 by Amazon, it was the most-watched pilot ever.  Currently streaming on Netflix.

One of the better prime originals. I actually know the guy who plays Himmler. He had a lake house a few miles from where I grew up. Small world.

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

DTF St. Louis ........................... 7 part series on HBO Max.

One of the weirdest shows with the weirdest characters you will ever come across.
It is a murder mystery in suburbia and, somehow, I got so caught up in the characters and wanting to find out what happened, I ended up watching it.
Definitely worth a look. Don't be too thrown off by the characters.

I really liked it, outside of the ultimate resolution.  SPOILER *** I don't think he would have done that in front of his stepson, despite whatever rejection he was feeling. ^^^ /SPOILER

**** SPOILER*****  Roy, I still don't quite understand why he did do it. Was he, in the end, that depressed about himself and his life ?
Despite the wife's struggle with regaining intimacy, she clearly loved him and wanted to stay with him.
Seems like some other things in his life were starting to get better, though apparently the physical appearance and attractiveness rejections he kept having to deal with (even right down to the end with the weatherman) just hit too hard for him to handle, especially given his proud past (Playgirl).

btw, on a side note ............ the wife and the little league umpiring gig was hilarious, especially her practicing her signals.
