In the 3rd season of Manifest. A strangely addicting show.

Also, halfway through the first season of Brooklyn 99. I haven't been hooked into a show like this since I started watching How I Met Your Mother.

I thought I was the only one intrigued by Manifest....been hooked from the very beginning.

Couldn't get into Brooklyn 99.

Terry Crews is one of my favorite actors/media personalities so it was easy for me. I also find Andy Samberg to be absolutely hilarious.
I like Samberg -- I first saw him in a British show called Cuckoo....he was hysterical in that....the show was not the same after he left.
 
I don't think I noticed anyone mention "A Discovery of Witches" -- anyone watch it?
 
We've lost a great talent. I just saw his appearance on Law & Order...he was just as mesmerizing then as he was later on. RIP, Michael.
 
For those who like both true crime and documentaries @SnowblindNYR, Dr. Death is a four-part deep dive into "neurosurgeon" Christopher Duntsch, who maimed 33 patients and killed 2 on the operating table. I believe it is on Peacock, which also has adapted a TV series (also called Dr. Death) based on Duntsch's crimes, starring Joshua Jackson, Alec Baldwin, and Christian Slater.

Thanks, too bad I don't have Peacock.

There are a few good documentaries on Netflix. Turning Point about the war on terror. And everything "untold" is great, especially crime and penalties I think it's called. About a mobster that bought a minor league hockey team for his son.

Yup, I'm starting Turning Point today. I'll try and check out this other one about the mobster buying a hockey team, but saving my energy for the 9/11 documentaries that are hitting all this week and weekend.

I saw an ad for this on the side of a bus the other day....It intrigued me because I would never have imagined those three in the same vehicle.

I watching a movie called worth with Michael Keaton. It's based on a true story about a lawyer that tried to settle with the victims of 9/11 by assigning how much the loss of life was lost.

I heard Worth was good. Recommend?
 
One of my favorite pics I ever took at a film or TV event.

Finished up Season 1 (hope there's a season 2?) of The Defeated on Netflix. Interesting perspective of the aftermath in a country that lost the war (Germany) and the clusterf*ck that was Berlin in 1946. Definitely something different.

I’m definitely going to check that out next. I’m a couple episodes from finishing seasons 1-4 of Snowfall on FX. Really enjoyed it.
