Episode 3 and it's getting interesting. I figured it for a slow burn series anyway so I don't mind, because slowly things are going horribly wrong.

I'm up to episode 6 of Hanna on Amazon Prime. I had seen the movie and like the series so much better. The movie stayed in the colorfully weird camp while the series takes the time for back story and more character discovery. I'm really liking it.

I also liked The Widow. The actress who played Adidja was good. I was rooting for Tywin Lannister and the blind guy. If they decide to have a second season, what would the story be?

I caught a couple of Good Wife reruns on TV late last night, and I've been binge-watching the show since.

I started watching White Dragon from amazon prime. It's about a guy who travels to Hong Kong after his wife dies there in an accident, but a lot more is involved. It's decent so far.

Ramy series on Hulu - A first-generation American Muslim who is on a spiritual journey in his politically divided New Jersey neighborhood. It explores the challenges of what it’s like being caught between an Egyptian community that thinks life is a moral test, and a Millennial generation that thinks life has no consequences. It was created by the main actor and loosely based on his life. It's smart, well acted, insightful, funny, and witty.

I just finished binge watching Downton Abbey and I loved it! I tried to start watching it a couple of seasons in, but I was so lost on the first episode I watched that I gave up. I'm anxiously waiting for the movie now. Maybe I'll watch it again before then.

Description: A comedy about an obese person who wants to make changes in her life that don't include losing weight.

The Man in the High Castle has been on my watch list on Amazon for years and I finally started season 1 a few days ago. I haven't had as much time to do a massive binge, but I did do 4 episodes in a day. Really intriguing concept and I'm enjoying watching it unfold.

Been Binge watching True Blood and up to season 3. I remember how crazy it was and how much I loved it before they decided to ruin it in the last season.

For me, that show tanked LONG before the final season. Maybe it's because I really loved the books and the show totally tossed the books out the window. I had to let that go and try to enjoy them as separate things. That final season though....OUCH. The first season was so much fun though!

I haven't gotten in to the US version of Animal Kingdom.. but I can say the Aussie Movie it was based on is VERY good.

Finished bingeing The Widow. It definitely pulled me in, and I really liked seeing Kate B in this. I too was pulling for the blind guy, and was often nervous for Martin.
I thought the flashback(?) with the Wales neighbor who went looking for his missing dog was a bit weird, but I guess that tied into the end a bit.

My library is part of a very larger interlibrary loan system. I started watching The Americans and Band of Brothers. I really like the series but they were too violent for just before bed so my plan is to switch to comedy series. ;^) There is a lot out there I haven't seen because I don't tape and I go to bed by 9PM. Which increases the chance that the drama series I haven't watched probably is on the violent side. I did finish Oppenheimer (this time I know most of the physicists, unlike when the series first broadcast in the 1980s).

Thanks for the reminder that public libraries are a great resource for these things. I think mine has that type of interlibrary loan, too. I should check it out since I'm trying to cut back on streaming subscriptions!

Chernobyl on HBO - it was bleak, brutal, and fascinating all at once. That episode with the pets and animals was hard to watch.
Good Omens on Amazon Prime - just started but it's a blast so far.

I finished all 6 episodes of Good Omens . Loved the actors/esses, makeup, costumes, storyline.
I watched Annhilation on Amazon. I saw there was a little dialogue as to why it was not as big at the box office. I liked the movie and am not sure how it could have been better than the already good 77% audience approval shown on rotten tomatoes. It was the best sci fi I have seen in a while....and it was not too scarey.

WE binges watched The Hot Zone. Started out really strong but the last two episodes were not so good, not bad, but not great. I need to re-read the book.

Like the other monkeys in Texas. They were told about them, next scene they got them taken care of. How? I didn't not like it, but I wish it would have kept up that suspense and not sped through the end.
