Really enjoying this season of The Last Of Us. About 4 episodes in and so far really great stuff.

About halfway through "The Agency" s1 (Paramount). About CIA out of London, has about 3 plot lines spanning Eastern Europe & Africa.

Has a pretty good cast.

Michael Fassbender (Alien prequels)
Richard Gere
Katherine Waterston (Fantastic Beasts)

Really enjoying season 3 of Star Trek: Picard.

Looking forward to Strange New Worlds s3 on July 17

New Dexter series on Paramount

Our favorite psychopath is back!

I've noticed that Max is now showing unskippable ads for their own shows during ad breaks, but not marking them as ads. So they'll show a couple of regular ads that count down to zero, then show an ad for their own show that I guess doesn't count as an ad.

These things just keep giving less value for the price.

I get so angry when a streaming service runs an ad for their own stuff. Like just feature it on your menu or something.

Interesting YT channel that follows up on what happened after the "karen" videos

First season the The Bear was awesome. Now it seems like they are trying to win emmys.

The Rotten Tomatoes score is like a downward spiral. Happens with some prestige type shows. They start thinking too much of themselves.

Watched the Paul Reubens/Pee-wee Herman documentary, "Pee-wee as Himself". Absolutely excellent. I think it's on HBO Max in the States. I didn't realize how many of the people that were on Pee-wee's Playhouse went on to do much bigger things.

I haven't watched yet, but I know he was connected to so many talented people. Like his college roommate was David Hasselhof.

Doing our annual rewatch of "John Adams" over the holiday weekend. It really is hard to think of a better cast show than this one.
