Into season 3 of "Slow Horses", and somehow this show gets better every season.
Also watched "Stick". It was ok. Somewhat predictable sports story, but watchable.

"Valiant One" on Hulu

Not great, not terrible, just okay. Some action, some drama, some tension etc. I enjoyed the premise but I gotta believe ...

Still PO’d at GRRM for leaving his literary fans out dry but yeah, going to watch this

Hi/Jack season 2 comes out in January. Season 1 was a serviceable, Idris Elba stops a highjacking on a plane.

Season 2, it looks like he's stopping a bombing on a subway train.

I feel like we need other modes of transportation that ends in ain/ane to keep this going.

Maybe pronounce van as vain, or submarine as submaraine. Maybe one season where he has to ride on an all-terrain vehicle.

Season 3 could be a hijiacking of a crane.

This is good paired with the John Candy documentary, where they discuss Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

My 12 year old softball playing daughter is obsessed with The Sandlot, to the point of her having a huge banner in her room of Benny. Tonight she made us watch The Sandlot 2. Those are 90 minutes of my life I will never get back.

Eat that time up. You're going to lose her for a few years really soon.

Oh trust me I do.

We are joined at the hip. I am always playing catch with her, taking her to her indoor training facility for BP ( she plays for a college prep program). Coach her team. We watch games together all the time and when my wife is travelling for work, which is a lot, she sleeps in the bed with me. We are super close.

They come back, at least mine did when she went to college, but she definitely needed to see how much space she could get during high school.

Yeah I miss those days. To an extent. Planning (well, paying for) one wedding and preparing for the other to graduate from college. Time flies.

So 8 months later I got a free TV delivered. Haven't unboxed it yet, but it's mainly going to be used as a video game TV. Should be interesting.

My daughter loves The Sandlot as well and has a Benny t-shirt. I refuse(d) to watch #2

Wife was looking at Rotten Tomatoes the other day and noticed the Springstein movie had a low rating. I'm wondering how much is the movie and how much is MAGA just going on there and leaving bad rtings.

I'm sure it's mostly option B.

Has anyone watched the Expos doc? Saw it pop up on Netflix today.

It is the actual expert reviews that are bad. The public score is 84% right now. Not MAGA affect, just the movie critics saying it isn't great unless you are a HUGE Boss fan.

Common refrain is "dull".

Sounds like the screenwriters basically mailed it in and, despite good performances by White, Strong, and Graham, the director couldn't overcome a fan fiction-y script to make it into an interesting movie.

I really thought Chad Powers would be terrible, but it's pretty good. They especially do awkward well. Any time he's mumbling, he's really funny.
