I’ve been dealing with a lot of stress and anxiety so I’m sticking with conform shows:
- Great British Bake Off - the new season is on par with past ones, but nothing really stands out
- Derry Girls - my mom, who is Irish Catholic, has been visiting and has never seen it
- Forged in Fire - just started a full rewatch. It’s fun to see how much things have changed over 10 seasons
I just stopped watching Stranger Things during the 3rd season, maybe episode 3 or 4…? My brain couldn’t handle the writing and crazy story any more.
Now I’m watching Voyagers! which is like a Quantum Leap like show. Also watched an episode or 2 of Miss Fisher’s Murder Mysteries. And I almost always seem to watch an episode or 2 of some Star Trek show, and am almost at the end of DS9 now.
Started “Talamasca”. So far it’s a fun watch.
The new season of The Diplomat is pretty great. If you’re not familiar, the show is like a cynical West Wing but where the main characters are good cynical instead of evil cynical (as in House of Cards).
I also just watched the new season of the Diplomat and really enjoyed it.
I think somewhere between West Wing and House of Cards is about right. Plus I’m always happy to see West Wing alumni on any show.
In the way of West Wing I do wish it were longer with some more lower stakes episodes. For example in season 3 we get a small time jump, it would have been nice to instead get a few slower episodes showing us what happened.
I enjoyed the first season. I’ll have to check this one out.
I’m going to be rewatching The Mandalorian: Season 1 tomorrow, excited 😁
Mainly started watching the Lazarus Effect. It’s decent so far. I’m still in season 1.
Slow Horses S5. It is great.
Stranger Things
I am doing a full rewatch leading up to the new season, I am on S3 and loving it.
Wife just started Slow Horses, so I’ve been rewatching with her.
