It’s a curious franchise. I know I watched the first two movies, and I was entertained. I remember the theme, but I can’t remember the plot at all. It’s all blank in my brain.

In Germany they want to lower the taxes for restaurants. One of the big winners will be McDonald’s. 🙁

I don’t have a set of rules for movies I want to watch. I don’t watch every movie, and the last few years I mostly prefer to see a TV show.

But Oscar movies have disappointed me too many times. Maybe my expectations were too high. But now I know why the quality of Oscar movies declined: they haven’t watched them.

In Germany we realized that chancellor is a job for a woman. Angela Merkel wasn’t perfect and made many mistakes, but the following two guys were even worse.

For many years, an Oscar win downrated a movie for me. A movie has to convince me with more than just “it won an Oscar.”

The last sure thing must have been Lord of the Rings. After that, it just went down the drain.

$1000 is still less expensive than my next PC I would need to buy after Windows 10 ends.

If it can run the Epic Games Launcher, too, I would use the Steam Machine for gaming, some cheap laptop with Windows 11 for my tax software and everything else that forces you to use Windows, and a Mac for work.

Season 2 starts with over a minute of “previously on …”. Maybe it’s enough if you can remember season 1 well enough.

I would skim the episode descriptions on Wikipedia for the first season. And perhaps watch the last minutes of the season finale.

Too bad there’s no recap on YouTube.

There are shows with worse assholes, except the kid after season 1.

Well, my kind of humor.

Season 1: 2024
Season 2: 2025

That’s something you don’t experience anymore as a TV junkie. I’m so happy. Especially seeing Kyle MacLachlan again. He had so much fun, a really cool guy.
