Things are mostly quieting down for the holidays. Though of course holiday specials aplenty. I’m glad because as the end-of-year best-of tv lists come out I’m doing some cramming before I do my list (likely in Feb). Starting Succession (HBO) now might not give me enough time.
I did finish Sex Education (Net) which was a really fun series though the final season was missing a bit of the cohesion. I also finished the much-lauded Beef (Net) which I didn’t like, not because it wasn’t good but I don’t really enjoy the angry. I was totally in for The Last of Us (HBO) and crossing my fingers that they can keep it up in the second season. I also enjoyed enough the latest Frasier (Para+). This week is the finale week for Ink Master so that means I’ll be wrapping up my Paramount+ subscription. I rudely found out that when I dropped the Showtime piece I also lost the commercial-free option.
I couldn’t resist diving into the first of Reacher (Prime) and am enjoying the light fare, though not sure the reuniting with the old gang has the same vibe as the first season. I’m also continuing to enjoy the latest season of Fargo (FX/Hulu).
Happy watching and enjoy the holidays!
