What are you going to do for the next two weeks?

  • Pick up more shifts at my evening job
  • Rent out gym courts with my friends to run ball hockey (did it last night and it was awesome)
  • Stare at a wall
  • Go to the dog park in the evenings
 
Black yoke.
This deserves a major league style reveal

I kicked off the break with the Gowan concert tonight, he can still belt it out.

Kinda funny...been feeling really down this week, and yesterday powered up the old iPod (yeah, I know) and ended up putting Dedication on repeat for nearly an hour. And damn....Gowan has an amazing set of pipes. The feeling and energy he puts into his music is amazing. Been a fan of his since the Strange Animal/Criminal Mind days bad in the mid 1980s. Dude is a Canadian gem.

I'm fully aware that I am at least a decade late to the party, but no hockey means I have time to binge watch the TV series Lost...for the first time. It's been great so far.
 
Finished Lioness ; re-watching Ray Donovan (series) ; Jon Voight was awesome in this.

Landman s1 is good

I'm here for recommendations

Better Call Saul -> Breaking Bad can kill a bit of time
 
Some current or recent stuff.

Severance - Amazingly made dystopian sci-fi in a throwback 70s style. Ben Stiller is a genuinely talented filmmaker that knows how to establish an off putting and oppressive environment that pulls you in.

The Pitt - immaculate attention to detail as a real time 15 hour shift in a Pittsburgh emergency room, the spiritual successor to ER

Paradise - a dumb but incredibly fun conspiracy thriller with a pretty bonkers sci fi twist. From the This is Us team.

The Agency - slick spy thriller series with constant shifting ground and some top notch acting talent. First season is an almost identical one to The Bureau, the French series this is a remake of. There's some differences that are an improvement, some that aren't but both are intelligent shows that don't hold your hand.

SAS Rogue Heroes - on its second season now, but effectively a punk rock Danny Boyle-style telling of the story of the formation of the SAS in World War II with cartoonist over the top action delivered by some talented young actors. Second season isn't quite as good because the real historical account creates some issues for plotting but it's a good, fun show. From Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight.

And what the hell I'll also throw out Invincible.

On its third season, based on a Robert Kirkman (of walking dead fame) comic, animated show about a world and universe inhabited by superheroes. However this show is one of incredibly brutal violence with real consequences. It lacks the satire of the Boys, but instead tackles absurd subjects with straightforward honesty. An interesting twist on superheroes by showing us exactly what that would mean.
