Feel like a lot more stores and whatnot are taking orders/payment over phone with curbside pickup and doing into vehicle trunk placement where I am. New, sad norm. And then we all like this afterwards

Yeah, season 2 is slow, but it's still a good a character study. Walt's true nature is revealed and you start feeling sorry for Jessie. Season 3 is where stuff gets real and the Better Call Saul stuff starts coming together. I think we also start to get fewer Walt Jr. breakfast scenes. But Breaking Bad is really intense and the showrunners do a good job a making sure every painful, awkward scene is paid off. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

I'll be honest, after watching the first couple of seasons I kinda hated the BB. Seemed too ridiculous. I jumped back on the bandwagon right before the final season. I grew to love the show because it is a modern day Shakespearean play. All the characters have exaggerated flaws Sambakick wrote:

I'm watching Tiger King now. Ludicrous concept, but it is sooo compelling. Westworld season three is also off to a fast start. I'm thinking about watching the Wire again to coincide with the Ringer rewatch podcast, but I already did a rewatch like five months ago. The classics never go out of style. I might do the Sopranos. I don't hold as much reverence as I did for it when it first came out, but still a good show. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too.

I still love the sopranos, I think it’s one of the funniest shows ever made. I work in mental health now so am enjoying rewatching it and paying attention to that aspect of it- think it has an excellent take on it, very clever show! I like the wire but I always think it’s a bit over rated- I preferred Homicide: Life on the Street (at least the first few series) and the shield. |

It’s not bad. I like homicide, but I like the Wire a bit more. The Shield is pretty good too, but too many Shark jumping moments for me. You make a good a point about the Sopranos. I think the episodes that were more focused on Tony and his demons are good. Especially when you view them through his interactions with AJ and Christopher. But there were a lot of gimmicky plots(Vito, Richie Aprile Jr., Furio's affair with Carmela) that I will probably skip. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more.

Some series Im watching..
The Knick. Interesting to watch the beginnings of modern medicine in NYC at the turn of the 20th century, and what hospitals are dealing with right now. Soderberg really nailed the look of NY in the early 1900s. UFO- Cheesy Sci-Fi from the 70s that looks like it was directed by Austin Powers. Gabrielle Drake, ay caramaba! |

I have no problem filling the day each one seems to fly by but weirdly the weeks are dragging! Feels like it's been months. It's awful seeing how bad things are and knowing this isn't even remotely the worst of it- we're just at the stage of a tsunami where the waters retreating on the beach
 Thank f*** for tv as a distraction. Leftovers season 2 is fantastic, honestly one of my favorite seasons of any tv show- this is such a surprise as I wasn't particularly impressed with season 1 Also watched that Knives Out movie. Going to watch Doctor Sleep next (terrible name, and I was against them making a sequel to the Shining, but it's meant to be good) Anyone watched Uncut Gems yet? |
