Tommy - mrs soprano as new LA police chief ruffling some feathers within the ranks of the boys in blue. 
only watched ep1&2. . Decent enough. 
so far she’s helped jail a pedo Hispanic millionaire business leader and foisted the young daughter of an incarcerated single mother (who said business leader has probably abused) onto her daughter to look after. 
 

also started the latest sinner. Liked the first 2 but this has started so slowly it is proving hard to persevere with.

Currently watching The Mandalorian. So far it's easily a 10/10.

Heard a lot of hype about the show and thought I'd check it out. Absolutely living up to it. You don't have to be a fan of Star wars nor know much about it to enjoy it. I'd highly recommend it.

 

The two seasons are excellent. 

The spin off from it 'The book of Boba Fett' has finished filming so hopefully it's as good.

The Obi-Wan series is currently filming too.

White House Farm -  I know it's based on a true story, but the actual ending is pretty shite.  i.e. there was very little proof to put the guy away, but he got put away anyways, felt a bit flat and didn't really make a great ending to what was a really good series.  7/10

Them - About 2/3rds of the way through the series. It's a horror series about a black family moving into an area predominantly white area set in the 1950s.  It's pretty bleak and has some, one in particular with the baby, really horrific scenes. 7/10

Mythic Quest - On Apple TV+, comedy about a MMORG development team. Nerdy, but not as nerdy as it actually sounds.  8/10

Dead PixelsChannel 4 show about a group of people who, similar to above, are obsessed by an online game. It's very funny though and is a bit of a piss take of nerds. The main girl in it is also in White House Down. 9/10

Just finished the profile of Ernest Hemingway on BBC iPlayer last night. Very interesting series about one fucked up genius. Loved some of his art back in the day but was ambivalent about others of his. May re-read one now, the difficulty being which to choose. Recommended. 

Watched the first two episodes then got bored. 

He seems like a cunt to be honest. Lied about what he done in the war, cheating on numerous women. 

 

If yir into yir books (@Bluto) I watched an episode (the 3rd) of Write Around The World with Richard E Grant was great and I plan to watch the rest.

Watching "Shadow Lines" on Amazon Prime (Sundance Now).

1950s Cold War thriller, set in Finland - about the CIA and KGB both trying to meddle to ensure the new Finnish Government will be their puppet.

Actually pretty good.  Ive never been the best at following dramas about spying / intrigue etc, but I'm hanging in there!

Went a couple of years ago.

Interesting place.

 

That second photo. The street between the two buildings. Walk about 100 yards then turn right we stayed in an AirBnB there. Looked rough outside but really nice inside.
