BABY REINDEER – Exceedingly disturbing true story of abuse and stalking suffered by one man, Richard Gadd, who wrote and stars in this piece as himself! And even more gut wrenching than the behavior of the abuser and stalker (two separate people), is Gadd’s reaction to it (which sometimes is no reaction at all). HisContinue reading

MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE: LIFE’S STILL UNFAIR – I was a fan of the original Malcolm back in the day. I wasn’t expecting a repeat of the quality before, but I certainly wasn’t expecting a waste of time which it is now. Stupid and disappointing. Not worth viewing for an occasional laugh. Skip it! Boyfriends/GirlfriendsContinue reading
DARK SHADOWS AND BEYOND – THE JONATHAN FRID STORY – I readily admit it! I was one of those kids who rushed home from school to watch Dark Shadows at 4 p.m. every weekday in the late 60s. So was my sister and most of my friends! I adored the show. The supernatural stories, theContinue reading
LOVE STORY: JOHN F. KENNEDY JR. & CAROLYN BESSETTE – I quite enjoyed watching this piece about the relationship and tragic deaths of John & Carolyn Kennedy. I don’t know how many of the details are factual. The Kennedy clan debunks most of the story as pure fiction. That may be. There is a disclaimerContinue reading
PEAKY BLINDERS THE IMMORTAL MAN – Disappointing movie sequel to the beloved series. Doesn’t pack the same punch without the original cast and storyline. Cillian’s work and sex appeal are still top notch though! Cheers! Boyfriends – 1; Girlfriends – 0.
ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER – It was a battle to sit through this film. John bailed halfway into it, never to be seen again. Darren, Mary and I made it to the end, but none of us understood what was happening or why. Plus I’m not a fan of modern revolutionary material. That said allContinue reading
MAN ON THE RUN – An ok documentary about Paul McCartney and Wings, but I was disappointed. I’m an avid Beatles fan. Wings….not so much. I wanted a deep dive into Paul’s struggles after the Beatles’ breakup and his relationship with Linda. Alas these things were only superficially addressed. As Mike said, it was supposedContinue reading
HEATED RIVALRY – Christine, Anna and Mackenzie are among the throngs of straight women who make up the huge audience that cannot look away from this steamy gay romance. Based on the book by Rachel Reid which is part of her Game Changer series, the buzz on this HBOMax show is through the roof…which isContinue reading
SIRENS – Not what I expected and not very good. I was looking forward to a supernatural fantasy story. After all, sirens were mythical beauties who would sing with enchanted voices to lure sailors to their deaths. Instead this was a corny, soap opera thing with no plot, no intelligent dialogue and no fantasy. IContinue reading
THE PITT – Phenomenal show!! Exceptional work! Deserving of all the accolades it has received! Need I say more? Glasses high folks. Cheers!! Boyfriends – 3; Girlfriends – 2.
