Is it a show or is it a movie? I mean, in the linear version of Mosaic, it’s broken down into six, 50-ish minute parts, so in my mind it’s a show. However, when each bit starts, HBO tells me I’m watching a movie. Who knows! What I do know is that when Mosaic emerged in 2018, it was very unique for the time. It originally aired on apps, where you could pick a path would alter what things you saw. The plotline itself really didn’t change, but the perspective could, which means you could discover certain things not available from other perspectives.

Weekend Movies in Review
This weekend I managed to squeeze in quite an eclectic mix of films whenever I could! Let’s get to it!
Read moreMare of Easttown Series Review
Beware of spoilers in this post! There, that’s all the warning you’re going to get about I. It’s hard to review this masterpiece of a miniseries without at least somewhat spoiling all the twists and turns that went down. In just seven episodes, this series managed to hook me from the get-go, and also manage to crash HBO Max during the finale. That’s how freaking good this mystery crime thriller is.
Read moreBook Review: Paradise Valley by C.J. Box
I’d say I’m moving through The Highway book series by C.J. Box rather quickly! A large part of that is attributed to my morbid curiosity of seeing how well the show, Big Sky, is relating to its source material. Well, I can say that by the end of the third installment, Paradise Valley, they really aren’t following the storyline. Now, I will say based off the second novel that the show totally deviated from, I didn’t really think that this novel would be followed either because the blurb made it sound like a direct continuation of those events.
Read moreBook Review: The Highway by C.J. Box
I told you all it was coming, and here it is! My review of The Highway by C.J. Box is the novel that inspired the ABC show, Big Sky. When I learned that the show as inspired by a book I knew I had to get my hands on it regardless of where the season was at. A large part of that has to do with the fact that the events in the show just seem a little off.
Read moreProdigal Son Season 2 Premiere
It’s been a minute since this mediocre procedural, serial killing show was on the air, but now Prodigal Son is back and I watched the second season premiere with some trepidation. During the first season run I know I made my feelings clear about how I felt let down by all the potential this show had to offer. No, at this point I’m not expecting it to be the next Hannibal, but just give me something!
Read moreBig Sky – Episodes 3 & 4 Recap
Alright, I clearly suck at watching this show in a timely manner, but I promise I’ll do better! Even though there is only one more episode of Big Sky set to air before its “winter break,” I still promise to have it reviewed on Wednesday! I swear it!
Read moreFargo Season 4, Episode 10
It’s the penultimate episode of this fourth installment of Fargo, and I’m really excited to see how it all plays out. After a cool and creative deviation last week, this week reverts back to the storylines we’re used to and plays out a string of events so delicious I might as well have been salivating while watching the episode.
Read moreFargo – Season 4, Episode 8
Well, well, well. Things have finally taken a turn for the interesting on Fargo, and I’m here for it! There were apparitions, backstabbing, and (unexpected) reunions. I won’t keep you hanging!

On the last day of the AFI Film Festival, I was able to squeeze in two more movies that I was itching to see. Both were strange in their own ways, but enjoyably unique.
