I believe Jean Smart just knocks anything she’s in out of the park, and this HBO Max original comedy is no exception. Coming strong off the heels as the matriarch of Mare of Easttown, Hacks is decidedly quite opposite in terms of subject matter, but don’t be fooled into thinking there are no serious moments in this series.

Mare 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.

This is perhaps the least amount of films I’ve watched in a given weekend since the pandemic started. I must admit that makes me a little sad. Sad because I love movies, but I suppose not as sad because I am starting to (safely) get back to normal a little bit. Either way, the limited choices in films I made this weekend were mediocre at best, but for the most part enjoyable to watch. Sometimes you can’t ask for more then that.

Now that I’ve got access to HBO Max and it’s massive catalog of content, I have been living my best life and watching shows that have always appealed to me in the past but were always just out of reach. Enter: Camping! This eight episode, half hour comedy touted an excellent cast and that’s really all I needed to want to tune in. Let’s dive in.

You know, for still being in the throws of a pandemic, there are still lots of new movies coming out (that you can watch in the comfort of your own home, of course). I for one, am taking advantage of all of these new releases when I can!

Since getting HBO Max, I’ve been trying to burn through series like it’s my job. I’m also trying to stay on the up and up with what’s popular right now, and especially if that something is a mystery series. But first I wanted to revisit an older miniseries that was quite popular itself when it first came out. Let’s see what I thought about Mrs. Fletcher and The Flight Attendant!
