    Evil

    Finished season 3. This show is great. Great acting, really good characters, can be funny, smart, scary and off-the-rails crazy. It's great. Please don't get canceled.

    What are you listening to at the moment?

    I had a roommate who was a studio musician for this album. Jesus Christ I have heard this song 10,000 times. And, weird as it sounds, my former roommate sounded better than Howard Jones. Dude is living in a huge house on a beautiful lake (and is still doing studio tracks for other people and...

    How can there actually be a cocktail called a Negroni these days? It was delicious, though.

    Single greatest song ever written?

    And what about U2? They went the opposite direction. From a catholic rock band to the greatest band in the world then off to suck-ass land. Can't take away the art from the artist even when the talent runs out...

    Single greatest song ever written?

    They do a great cover of The Whole of the Moon... And even though the band may suck now, they were great once. PS; Cat Stevens went full-blown Muslim terrorist, but you can't deny that in his prime he was a poet extraordinaire...

    Disney+ Streaming Service

    It was my understanding that the actual subscription numbers are all faulty. One of Netflix's potential undoing is that one account is shared by too many people in all markets, but it is probably much worse in India, Africa, etc... It's like to 300+ Arabs that share a single Costco account near...

    I guess there are 204 flavors... I stand corrected. What I thought was burger was #27, Azuki Bean flavor: https://thisis-japan.com/kitkat-flavors/ Some of them sounds pretty fucking delicious. Guess there is really no Bat flavor or Monkey-brains...

    Japan seems so much more civilized than China; but the shit they eat in Japan is almost (if not equally) as funky as in China. Burger and seaweed Kitkat bars? Pizza flavored candy bars too? Dudes, seriously?

    So weird that the Spanish labeling is so aggressive. Excess calories, excess sodium! Last I checked my Funyuns are never self-deprecating. They're just golden deliciousness!

    Prey. Posted about it in Movie House... 8/10

    The Sandman

    Well, to be fair; Constantine was kinda white AND gay... At least they made it very clear that the show was fantasy. Maybe that's the REAL agenda (as you just outlined so nicely)!!

    Prey

    OK- watched it. Wanted to hate it in the first 15 minutes because it was abundantly clear where this film was heading. Comanche-chick-wanna-be-warrior vs predator. Yeah, they kind of telegraphed the whole thing in those first 15 minutes. BUT- damn it, it was fucking entertaining! Holy shit...

    House of the Dragon

    There needs to be an adjustment coefficient for the total number of black viewers proportional to the actual number that pay for the channel.

    The Sandman

    That's a pretty succinct summary of the issue. The fact that they have injected more gay into this show than Gay Pride day in Key West is distracting and annoying and wholly unnecessary to the narrative.

    Yup-- carbon monoxide poisoning and second and third degree burns are probably the only way to make "futbol" exciting....

    The Sandman

    It's enjoyable so far. Would much rather have seen Matt Ryan return as John Constantine than have the girl from Doctor Who become Johanna Constantine. Also- it is so dark. Not thematically but literally. I want to turn the brightness up on the TV half the time. A lot of shows take this tact and...

    Star Trek: Lower Decks

    I finished watching all of them. It starts off very uneven in season 1. By season 2 it hits it strides and, at times, is very VERY good. Like SNW, it gets Trek. It also is meta, and is without question is the most easter-egg filled, best-researched Trek creation ever (without being...

    Star Trek: Picard

    I have to agree big time. Again, I remember waiting for episodes of TNG to air (and putting up with that sort-of disastrous) first season. The show had it's moments of glory for certain. But it also had a lot of crap-ola. But again, that was kind of expected in those days, when you produced 20+...

    Yup; must have been part of the many extended hours of fillers that seemed nothing like Trek that I dozed off for a few... Thank you for clarifying. So Balter is not a bad guy?

    Star Trek: Picard

    It ends up with the time travel saving the day... Back to where we were in the first 10 minutes only it's all better now. And we got to learn about Picard's troubled youth, his abusive father, his tortured mother, we found out 7 of 9 is a lesbo, Q is gay for Picard, undocumented immigrants are...

    Torrid; I feel your wrath... This series (like so many these days) was fucking PAINFUL to get through. I had to do it with breaks. Each with the every-dying hope that it would get better. I've put up with a lot for my half-century love of Trek... Just when I was thinking that we are in Trek's...

    Stray - get your pussy on (PS4,5 and Windoze)

    I finished it-- a very cool game and concept. There was only one irritating level/scene (the elevator!). It was fun as heck playing as a cat. It took me about 4 hours and (I realize now) I talked to WAY too many characters/robots... It's a charming and chill game.

    Evil

    I just finished season 2. I love that the show is going off the rails. LOVE IT! More crazy demons and wacko characters popping in out of nowhere and interacting with the cast. Will start season 3 soon. I still think the show's acting, cinematography, music and episodic nature is superb.

    Ms. Marvel

    Okay-- I watched it (up until episode 6) in a binge fashion (mostly on the treadmill). The lead is charming and, I think, a perfect newcomer for a superhero genre. Nice not to see another same-face playing all the leads (eg., Chris Pratt/Hemsworth...). The side characters make the show. The...
