Re: TV: A Succession of Watchmen in The Good Place

Clone Wars season 7 premiered this morning on Disney+. Good start to this four episode arc. It appears an old friend isn't as dead as once thought. It is season 7 so I wouldn't recommend starting from scratch, but if you have limited time, the Domino Squad (S3 Ep 1, S1 Ep 5, S3 Ep 2) and the Anakin Meets Tarkin (S3 Eps 18-20) arcs are the relevant ones to watch.

I know this is heresy but I have always hated "answer in the form of a question." A word followed by a question mark is a well-formed question. It just wastes time.

In the early days the clues were more along the lines of actual answers. The clue might be "5280" and an appropriate response would be "How many feet are in a mile?"

Now it's a free-for-all. Any form of a question is OK - "Is that Abraham Lincoln?" would be acceptable.

I’ve started rewatching Ewan Mcgregors Long Way Round series. Originally saw it when it was just released in 04 and I was living in the UK.
It’s about his motorcycle trip across the world, and I love the parts through Russia, kazhakstan and Mongolia.

I need to see the sequels long way down and long way up. All seem to be on Prime right now

There can be an argument for what you're saying, yes, but given that the show has been around for 40 years and he had to apply over the better part of a year to be on it, the onus is on him to know the rules as is.

That said, the guy seemed a little off in general. It felt like Will Ferrell doing one of his Harry Carry-esque characters.

Us too. Bummed that Kinnaman isn't in it anymore, but I'm willing to give Mackie a shot.

Binge watching season 1 this weekend. I'd forgotten how much I liked it. I recognize it has its flaws, but it just hits all my spots. Part scifi, part noir, with above average acting and a decent plot.

Exactly. It gets ridiculous at times, but it is good enough to make up for them. The bad acting performances are because they are people used to performing on stage, so they overdo it.

Watched 2 episodes of The Hunters. Might be good, but i cant watch anymore. The character Jonah completely ruins it for me.

People change when the lights come on. Maybe nerves?

S5 Better Call Saul premiere:

Solid start...the black and white portion (which is the post-Breaking Bad storyline) was VERY interesting. Could we see what the endgame is for that plot? A sort of El Camino for Saul?

Kim's storyline...hoo boy. The inner conflict she has with Saul/Jimmy is massive, almost at a breaking point. How it ends up...could go in any direction.

The Lalo/Mike/Gus/Nacho vein of the story, well, how it comes to a head should be a fun ride. It was interesting to see how Mike is handling the current situation.

And episode two airs tonight, right?

Just checked, and that's a yes! Now I'm super-pumped! I bought the season pass from Amazon, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to see it, but WOOHOO! Wonder why they did it that way....
