new and noteworthy tv: 12/4-12/17

After I finished the second season of those messy but compelling Yellowjackets on Showtime I called it. I still have Paramount+ for the remainder of Ink Master but with such a backlog I decided not to dive into anything else. I did watch one ep of The Curse which was a little more annoying than entertaining for me. I also finished the season of entertaining Deadloch on Prime, a nice mix of comedy and small-town murder intrigue. And the last of All Rise on OWN which was a nice courtroom drama with a hopefully positive spin.

The best of lists should start rolling out so I may prioritize a bit differently to get my list done within a reasonable amount of time. Of this week’s options, I’ll certainly grab Reacher when I have some time. I am also enjoying the latest season of Fargo some typical brutality but also some fun characters. I sampled but didn’t stick with NCIS: Sydney, I’m not a watcher of the rest of that so if that’s your bag it might be a good one.
