I've been watching The Expanse and it's another show I regret sleeping on.

The first season is a bit slow and disjointed but it's worth sticking with since it gets better after that.

I finally got around to watching The Many Saints of Newark, in it's entirety - it's a flawed film. It devotes too much time on Dickie Moltisanti and almost no time on Tony and Junior Soprano. David Chase's premise is clear, if Johnny Boy Soprano and Dickie Moltisanti had been the central figures in Tony Soprano's life, he would have gotten himself whacked before he reached 25. Johnny Boy (not being very bright) holds Dickie in high esteem while holding his younger brother in disdain. Yet it's Corrado "Junior" Soprano who guides Tony's career, since Johnny Boy can't keep himself out of prison it's Uncle Junior who runs the show. Being a violent moron, Dickie's sense of superiority gets the best of him...you don't cross The Boss.

Is Corey Stoll the best character actor of his generation?

Alejandro Kirk's dad is a true Lothario, he gets Justine Lupe drunk then parts her thighs.

I am a big fan of the movie Friday Night Lights. Finally got around to watching the series. It is real good. The acting, the writing and the way it is shot really got my attention. It can be a bit teen drama at times, but there is enough other stuff to keep you attentive. I love football and this is a bit like a look behind the curtain. I recommend this series.

David Cronenberg's classic horror-thriller Dead Ringers is being morphed into a mini-series. When it came out in 1988, Dead Ringers quickly became the most disturbing psychological horror film ever made (imho). The Academy were two chicken to give Jeremy Irons a Best Actor Oscar for playing twin doctors Beverly and Elliot Mantle. He wasn't even nominated - none of the other nominated actors were remotely close to his characterizations. This time it's Rachel Weisz playing the Mantle Twins, what makes this even more interesting is Emily Meade is back (The Deuce, Boardwalk Empire).

....it will probably be banned in Florida.

I started watching an Icelandic TV show called Trapped on prime.

So far it's a good paced series set in a very snowy Iceland.

Love that movie but I'd call it more creepy than horror. But it's reallly creepy.

On the slopes of Mount Parnassus, Greece
Looking forward to the last episode of the series of ''Snowfall' this week.

This show has exceeded all of my expectations.

The late John Singleton would be proud of the way his project turned out.

Highway Patrol on you tube. Cop series from the 50's starring Broderick Crawford who was drunk on set a lot of times. Love seeing the old cars.

I enjoyed watching Alaska Daily . Finished 11 episodes of season 1 , No word on Season 2 . Hillary Swank is a new momma. Surprising that they could sub Steveston BC, ( S of Vancouver ) for Anchorage . I also finished Dear Edward.( Apple TV) A 12 yr old is the only survivor of a plane crash . The title character was annoying , but the interactions of survivor families made for interesting TV.
