KNOCK, KNOCK – I started watching this movie on a whim. Trending in the top ten on NetFlix and starring Keanu Reeves, I thought it might be worth a look. I was wrong. Ryan walked through the room and promptly said, “That stupid thing. Don’t waste your time.” He was right. Don’t waste your time.Continue reading

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES – Okay, y’all know how much I like The Originals. Through that viewing, I discovered Vampire Diaries which is actually the prequel to The Originals. In fact, the Originals storyline begins in Vampire Diaries and continues into their own show. I didn’t think I would like Vampire Diaries at all. It appearedContinue reading
THE HAUNTING OF BLY MANOR – To say the second season of this Haunted House series is a disappointment is an understatement. All the peeps agree – slow and boring. The first season, The Haunting of Hill House, was one of the scariest stories I have ever seen on screen (both film and TV). SoContinue reading
LUCIFER 5 – I wasn’t impressed with the first few episodes of the fifth and final season of Lucifer. About halfway through the first eight, I found it delightful. There is a clever departure from the typical scenario with a film noir episode, allowing the actors and audience to enjoy role play and enabling theContinue reading
DARK – Aptly named, this Netflix series is produced in German and dubbed in English. It’s a bizarre, sci-fi time travel extravaganza. The same characters exist in all time periods, and they can travel between them. There is a giant apocalypse threatening each world. If your head is spinning, join the club, because that isContinue reading
View Post THE ORDER – This is another one of those comfort viewing shows Kelly and I enjoy watching…especially during a pandemic. In the same category as The Originals and Sabrina, it’s a fun romp through supernatural antics – this time in a college setting focusing on magic and werewolves. Werewolves have never been myContinue reading
THE ORIGINALS – Okay lots of boyfriends and girlfriends on this one. As a matter of fact, pretty much the main reason for watching. This show has all gorgeous actors. If you happen to like supernatural fantasies which include vampires, witches and werewolves, all the better. And the story is quite appropriately set in NewContinue reading
PEAKY BLINDERS – I kept seeing this show listed in the NetFlix menu. It features many criteria I enjoy – historical fiction, British, period piece, some name people – so I began watching. I soon found I could not look away. The first thing that struck me was I kept seeing Jonathan Rhys Meyers inContinue reading
HOLLYWOOD – I can’t decide if I like this show. I want to like it, but some things about it are extremely off-putting. First, I can’t figure out if it is supposed to be historical fiction or not. Many real players from Hollywood’s 50s era are depicted in the story, but the premise is ridiculous.Continue reading
ECHO IN THE CANYON – A documentary spearheaded by Bob Dylan’s son, Jakob. A great slice of musicians’ lives in the Laurel Canyon area of L.A. back in the 60s. Interviews with the original musicians intertwine with excerpts of their songs as well as excerpts of Jakob and his friends performing their songs in tribute.Continue reading
