Watched the first three episodes of Ted Lasso on AppleTV+ and it was good and goofy. I enjoyed it more than I anticipated.
 
I'm really not watching anything new at the moment. Agents of Shield ended last week and The Flash won't be back for a while. I'm not sure when The Expanse is going to be back, and then everything else is streaming (The Expanse is as well) and I can watch those whenever. Right now I've been rewatching Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Currently in Season 3.
 
Mad to be Normal on Prime with David Tennant, Gabriel Byrne, Michael Gambon, and Elisabeth Moss, about the Scottish psychiatrist R. D. Laing's work in the sixties.

The truth is I love to listen to David Tennant speak ...
 
Just watched the last episode of The Blacklist. Quite weird as they had a mix of live action and cartoon as they couldn't finish filming. It worked well enough and I'd rather that than a 6-12 month gap between episode 19 and 20 like The Walking Dead.
 
Watched a Rob Snider standup comedy routine on a Netflix. It was good, but I never had a clue he was half Chinese! He did an entire bit on it. :)

Rome (2005-07 HBO)- A real treat to see this again. I’ve got the series on BluRay. As I understand it, HBO canceled this excellent series at 2 seasons because filming it in Italy was too expensive.

That buzz beater three from Davis. Damnit.

I always root for the underdog and the nuggets have been a bit of a Cinderella story.

American Crime Story: The People vs OJ Simpson

Hard to believe it’s been 25+ years.

Yes, excellent, excellent series! I have watched it at least 3 times, and will watch again.

Another good, parallel one is OJ: Made in America, an ESPN documentary. It actually covers a much larger time period, and does include the trial. Well, well done.

The Haunting of Bly Manor (2020 Netflix Mini-Series)- First two episodes pulled me into this traditional feeling haunted house story, built on suspense and disturbing images. An American woman takes a job on as tutor for two orphans in an English Country Manor. There be ghosts. Nine episodes, don’t know if there will be another. I assume if there is another season, it will be a different story.

I loved it - - easily the best long form TV series I've seen this year.

I have now completed The Haunting of Hill House and found it to be altogether substandard to The Haunting of Bly Manor. I suppose Hill House is more of a crowd pleaser for fans of the genre, by trotting out all the stock horror tropes, but other than the solid acting, I found it a very slight story hiding behind its nested structure.
 
Has anyone watched The OA on Netflix, what was you final verdict? I‘ve completed S1E2, not sold on it.

I preferred THOHH because the story was more straight foreward. I got fatiqued with THOBM‘s story telling jumping around, whose dead, whose not? ;)

I watched The OA and really ended up liking it. The first few episodes start off pretty slow, but by the end of the season I was on the edge of my seat.

The second season was pretty interesting as well, but ended with a really interesting plot twist that is kind of a cliffhanger. It was cancelled, and so far there has been no signs of it getting picked back up so it will probably never be resolved. It was originally planned for 5 parts/seasons so it is kind of a letdown.
