Just finished Succession Season 1, so glad I gave it a second chance as now I love it.
I’m watching Fear the Walking Dead the final season, absolutely horrible show, its the wrestling equivalent of WCW 2000. I gave up on it a couple years ago (middle of the last season), but decided to catch up when I read a major character came back for the final season as I want to see how it finishes.
I’m watching the Frasier reboot…can’t say its great, but its nostalgic and non offensive.
I just finished Fall of House Usher which was pretty good if you like that style of show.
One of the most influential television producers and social activists of all-time. Rest in peace, Norm. I say a marathon for All in the Family, Sanford & Son, and The Jeffersons are in order.

Looking back on the TV/Film of 2023 there was lots of great stuff. But what I will probably remember 2023 for is being the best year for Star Trek since 1997 when First Contact, DS9 and Voyager were on air. In 2023 we got the only really excellent season of Picard, a great second season of Strange New Worlds, another fun season of Lower Decks and even the comics have been good since re-launching by IDW.
Ok cool. I watched LetterKenny once and didn’t really care for it, but I’ve seen clips for Shorey and thought it looked hilarious. I didn’t want to force myself to watch 12 seasons (short mind you) to watch 12 episodes. Ill give it a shot.
I saw Dune: Part 2 yesterday. I don’t want to say any spoilers but seeing it on IMAX is a spectacular movie experience. It’s one of the best examples of science fiction ever made and what the genre can achieve in terms of imagination and scope.
The only mild spoiler I’ll put is…
I haven’t read the books so I didn’t know how the Dune book ends but it’s similar to the movie apparently. The movie ends on somewhat of a cliffhanger which I had heard ahead of time which helped set my expectations for the movie. If I hadn’t know that and then experienced the end of the movie my reaction would be a lot more WTF.
Definitely interested in hearing what others thought of it. One other small spoilerish review.
