    I recently watched Whiplash for the first time, with a group of people who cracked jokes and talked over literally every single emotional high. When it ended they collectively rated it 6/10 because “there weren’t any likeable characters”.

    I’m revisiting an old favorite of mine. It’s the 90s Toon Disney show, Gargoyles.

        Yeah, I love that intro too, especially when Goliath starts narrating.

        One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled. It was a time of darkness. It was a world of fear. It was the age of Gargoyles. Stone by day, warriors by night. We were betrayed by the humans we had sworn to protect, frozen in stone by a magic spell for a thousand years. Now, here in Manhattan, the spell is broken, and we live again! We are defenders of the night! We are Gargoyles!

    Started “Search Party”, enjoying it so far. It’s a dark comedy and it’s weird, maybe too weird to be honest

    I’ve also been watching “Reasonable Doubt”, which is more of a drama / legal drama. The soundtrack is EXCELLENT. I’m not sure if I’d recommend the show, but I do recommend people try Adrian Younge’s music if you like jazz/soul music

    I’ve been rewatching Breaking Bad and I’ve been picking up on a lot I missed the first time around. Season 3 Walt is an absolute maniacal mess. I’m embarrassed to say I couldn’t link it to the immense guilt he has for the 747’s before.

    I watched Bullet Train (2022), it was good. Some good fight scenes, some explosions. I think it tried a little too hard to be an early Guy Ritchie movie and suffered a little for it but not too much.

    Just finished a kdrama called The Worst of Evil. Pretty good undercover cop drama. Some questionable and illogical character decisions to move the plot forward, but otherwise a pretty solid show. I also liked how it ended, because IMO kdramas usually have an issue in that they don’t know how to end them and tend to go for a cop out ending.
