For All Mankind is getting one final season, its sixth. It’s one of my all-time favorite shows, and certainly one of Apple TV’s crown jewels. I’m both surprised and a little sad. I’d hoped it would continue on in perpetuity, but all things come to an end.
Season five starts this Friday, March 27. 📺
Started watching: Rooster 📺
We’re caught up now and each of the first three episodes have been laugh out loud funny! Loving it; can’t wait to see where it goes. Gonna enjoy this one coming out week to week. (Cristle is so weird! 😆)
Watched: Superman 🍿
I can’t say that it lived up to the hype of being the best comic book movie in recent memory, but it was a fun, exciting watch. I’m no Superman aficionado though, so take that with a grain of salt. Great casting! 👍
Watched: Eternity 🍿
I really liked this movie. It’s rare to find a story that poses a really good question with relatable stakes, catches your heartstrings, and finds a way for everyone to come out of it looking like a good guy. It was very sweet. 👍👍
Watched: Stranger Things Season 5 📺
Alright — I’ll admit — they landed season and series quite well. 👍
Watched: Shrinking S3E1, My Bad 📺
Dude, what a great episode and return to the series! I’d missed these characters. Hope they didn’t spend all their best writing on E1, but this one fucking ruled.
Watched: Pluribus 📺
As Robb Knight put it, it’s “the most boring show I can’t stop watching.” I love the mystery and “what ifs” but wish there was more happening. A promising first two episodes turned into a slow burn that I’m nonetheless looking forward to coming back. 👍
Watched: Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery 🍿
Watched: The Alpinist 🍿
I watch this documentary multiple times a year, and it’s still one of my all-time favorite films. 👍👍
Watched: ONE SHOT with Ed Sheeran 🍿
This was so cool! Ed roams around New York City with his guitar, playing songs for unsuspecting strangers and surprise parties—all in one take. He seems so genuinely nice and grateful to play for fans. I’d love to see some behind the scenes of how this was shot. 👍👍
Watched: The Marvels 🍿
I know I’m behind on this, but they really did this movie dirty. Great characters and actors, just a shamefully poor storyline. 👎
Watched: Stranger Things S5E4, Chapter Four: Sorcerer 📺
Definitively yell-at-the-TV-the-whole-time-because-of-plot-holes kind of show. But that didn’t stop us from binging all four episodes released today. Some genuinely good moments too. Won’t be too sad when things wrap up next month. 👍
Watched: Masters of the Air 📺
Much like Chernobyl, I think this is a series that everyone should see. 👍👍
Watched: La La Land 🍿
It may not be the world’s best musical movie, but gosh do I enjoy it. Both Stone and Gosling do so well. The ending is clever, if not totally satisfying. And the tunes are sure to be in my head for weeks. 👍👍
Watched: Masters of the Air S1E6, Part Six 📺
After some time away from this show, I binged a few episodes today. Truly gripping stuff that showcases the horrors of being on a fighter plane in WW2. Gonna need some time to process it for sure.
Rewatched: The Queen’s Gambit 📺
What a show! I had a hankering to watch this again after a few years, and so glad that I did. Marathoned it over two days. It’s a masterclass in growing empathy for nearly every character, and showing dull things dramatically. And a triumph in set and costume design.
Watched: Pluribus S1E1, We Is Us 📺
My wife and I watched the first two episodes yesterday and are hooked. We had to pause multiple times to debate the implications and moral quandaries of what was happening on-screen. The mark of a good show! (And Severance-esque 👍)
Rewatched: Agatha All Along Season 1 📺
Even better the second time through, as I was able to keep up with the twists and turns and weirdness. And catch all the foreshadowing. Worth a rewatch! 👍
Watched: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets 🍿
My wife and I enjoyed disussing the benefits and detriments of having a whole book/series as source material when making a movie. But we agreed that they did a great job playing to the book fans on this one. I give it a 👍
🍿 Just watched: The Gorge
