I never saw Veronica Mars when it came out so I am about half way through. Kirsten Bell is cute as a button. What a neat little series

saw the movie last year so I will need to go back and re-watch

And now I hear that they are just wrapping production on a new season of 8 series for Hulu. set about 5 years after the flick and darker. Coming out later this year I think
Finished the last episode of the TV series. Boy, did they leave that one hanging.

The Son. Not a bad series. The South Texas look is about right.

Not sure that I buy them driving from the Valley to Austin every few days back in the early 1900s. The roads must have been horrible, not much in the way of gas stations plus breakdowns - livery stables were the garages of the early days.

The Comanche were pretty accurate from what I have read and active in the Texas panhandle (where it said Eli was with them) but the Tonkawa were a little further south and east mostly in the Central Texas area (they were the tribe with smallpox in S1)

The Lipan Apache could have attacked the ranch in South Texas where Elis wife was murdered although most of them would have drivin to either New Mexico or join the Comanches.

I don't buy them driving to Austin every few days either. The Good Roads Movement didn't really get going until after WW!, and everything before then was pretty much a dirt track.

I'm pretty much a Netflix / HULU / Prime guy, no cable. So its pretty rare for me to buy a show. But I liked S1 of The Son so much I bought S2 on VUDU.

Interesting seeing the young girl as old woman, and still defending Eli. And the time lapse with Eli is really entertaining. Thought it interesting the generational gay sons thing. Eli had one, Pete had one, and the old lady has one.

Ditto on the travel thing. Can hardly wait to see how Maria fits into S2.

I am all in on this show.

So far so good on The Son. Too bad it's the final season.

I've found it to be pretty accurate except for Pierce Brosnan's accent at times. It's not set in the RGV....more like just south of Laredo. To me it's kinda like setting up Dallas the TV soap.

Young Sheldon is still pretty funny. Not sure that but they will only get one more season out of the youngster playing Sheldon before he is too big unless they follow him to college

The Fix was decent. Marcia Clark produced series. Feels like there should have been a white Bronco in there somewhere though. It was a one season project

Patricia Arquette had two juicy roles, Dee Dee Blanchard in The Act. She forces her young daughter to pretend to have all sorts of medical issues so they can live off other folks and Tilly Mitchell in Escape at Dannemora, about a big prison escape at Clinton Correctional back in 2015..

Good Omens, on Prime. Feels very Monty Pythonish. A good angel and a bad angel are on earth waiting since the dawn of time for Armegeddon. David Tennant (Dr Who) is the demon angel and Micheal Sheen (Aro in Twilight) is the good angel.

Also Micheal McKean, Frances McDormand and a host of others are in it

Finished season 2 of the rain. Not as good as the first season but still good.

Just finisshd watching Hannah, not bad but they essentially drew the movie out into 6-7 episodes of the 8 episode season. Last 2 episodes added new stuff beyond the movie and there were things that are different so the storyline can continue...

I'm sure you know the huge reason for that. This is a book co-written by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett in the 80's. Terry Pratchett is the author of the "Discworld" series about a flat disc-shaped planet riding on the back of four elephants standing on the back of a giant space turtle (it's turtles all the way down, young man!). People describe is at the fantasy version of Douglas Adams' "Hitchhiker's Guide". Not entirely accurate, but they have a point.

Gaiman writes fantasy and several Dr, Who episodes.

Pratchett died in 2015. One of his last requests (actually in letter delivered posthumously to Gaiman) was that Good Omens be made in a visual medium.

They're both extremely silly people, and the miniseries has a very authentic vibe. The novel wasn't long enough to sustain 6 hours of television, so some back story was padded out. Since Gaiman was one of the original authors, the material is accurate and seamless. I'm a huge fan of the book, and enjoyed the extras. I suppose it could lead to pacing problems for a viewer not enthralled with the novel, though.

Saw Rain S2 was out, but have not seen it yet. I thought 1 was really good. Even my wife enjoyed that and she's like Mikey.

Watched two episodes of Hannah. Agree on your assessment that its basically the movie. The new girl is more believable than the blond movie girl. I guess just that she could do that stuff considering her size.

They still have TV shows?

I have not had cable TV (or anything like it) for most of this century and given the amount of garbage on TV I usually don't miss it. However, I do have Netflix & Amazon Prime so I have watched some things there. I did watch The Crown and found it pretty good (except the R rated or worse parts). Strangely, I also have been watching Stranger Things and I'm looking forward to the new season next month.

Not sure why they had to make the gay thing as part of it, but they did.

On the positive side, Eli's latest lawyer is an old friend of mine, Kevin Page. We did a "Dallas" episode back in the 70s and then I ended being his stand-in on the Dallas reboot.

Kevin is known for two things, he was the fella at Robocop headquarters that was wasted by Robocop Version 1... and he played Bum in the Dallas reboot, he was the guy that shot JR. When they found out Larry was dying from cancer off screen, they figured out a way for him to get the 'last laugh" as part of the story line. Kevin shot him and planted the gun

Yeah I guess the gat thing is a PC hat tip these days. Unnecessary IMO.
