I love most everything this guy is in, so I’m really excited to watch The Staircase on HBO down the road. I’ve heard good things, so if you’ve got it you might want to check it out!

Book Review: Mrs. Fletcher by Tom Perrotta
Back during the start of the pandemic, I watched the miniseries Mrs. Fletcher on HBO. I had no clue it was based on a novel of the same name, so when I saw it discounted at my local bookstore, I snatched it up right away. In thinking back, I really enjoyed that miniseries when at first I was a little nervous to start it.
Read moreSuccession Season 3
Oh man, it was a very antsy waiting period, but now that I’ve experienced the highly anticipated third season of Succession, I can confirm that it was totally worth the discomfort. Speaking of discomfort, the Roy family didn’t let up on any of their ruthless antics this season, and the level of betrayal is at an all time high. Let’s review, shall we? Also, SPOILER warning so you’re prepared.
Read moreScenes from a Marriage Miniseries
Okay, look, this five-part miniseries really grew on me as it went on, but I had to agree with SNL’s take on it two and a half episodes in. They made a fake trailer and then had a critic’s quote at the end stating, “Who is this for??” and I found myself asking the exact same question.
Read moreWeekend Movie Review
I feel like I’m making up for lost time here. September didn’t have me seeing nearly as many movies as I would have liked. Or perhaps, there is just so much good stuff coming out this month! A lot of them actually should have came out last year, but the pandemic had other plans. I mean, the pandemic still has other plans, but luckily for me and other film lovers, the big studios are forging ahead! Before I get to all of that though, let’s get a recap of what I actually watched this weekend.
Read moreFan Art Friday: Jessica Chastain
I suppose this could also be classified as a Flashback Friday since this drawing is older and has definitely made an appearance on the blog before. But I digress. Jessica Chastain deserves the repeat love because she is everywhere right now! I personally plan on checking her out in The Eyes of Tammy Faye tomorrow, but you can also catch her in Scenes From a Marriage on HBO right now. That’ll be a bit later in the year for me, but you know you’ll see a review for it when I do. In the meantime, enjoy this drawing!
Read moreMosaic – Television Film Review
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.
Read moreLos Espookys Season 1
I love me a good subtitled movie, so there’s no doubt that I would love a subtitled show! Los Espookys is primarily a Spanish series about a group of friends just out trying to scare people.
Read moreMovies in Review
While not as ambitious as last holiday weekend, I still got a fair share of films in! Some were deserving repeats (in my opinion) while the remaining went back in time a little bit. Also, I’m pretty sure I found a new movie to add to my all-time weird list! That’s seriously quite an honor, because it’ll probably get brought up in conversation at least a few times a year. Anyway, let’s go!
Read moreSilicon Valley – Final Seasons 5 & 6
I’ve officially met the end of the road for another world renouned comedy. It’s been a long time coming, but Silicon Valley has finally become a part of my life and I am happier for it! Seriously, this show produced a lot of laughs and I really couldn’t have asked for anything more.
