I’ve been chipping away at a few shows and caught Cruel Summer, which was a little disjointed with the multiple timelines but I’ll check again. And the combo of The Parker Andersons and Amelia Parker which was sweet but not something I need right now. I’ve been sticking with L&O: OC, Rebel, Home Economics, The Equalizer, Clarice, and Kung Fu to see where things lead and barely hanging in with Debris, which is an interesting premise but I can’t seem to care. Sometimes I do just want to watch tv rather than yet another streaming show for some reason. Dropped Chad as I can’t take another cringeworthy coming of age comedy. Looking ahead I’ll go back in with Mythic Quest while I still have Apple TV. I’ve never started Handmaid’s Tale, I feel like I heard great things about the first season and then never heard about it again.

I wrapped up the final season of The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, a series I always wanted to like more than I did, but clearly stuck with. And Mrs America which had great performances in a non feels like I’m watching a history lesson version of the movement to pass the ERA.

Before my Apple + subscription expires I also went through the season of Mythic Quest, which started out annoying me (I have worked with enough people like that I wasn’t looking for that frustration in my entertainment) but grew to really enjoy the dynamic and some of the special episodes including the only pandemic entertainment I thought felt appropriate.

And finally got through the rest of Fargo, which really wasn’t my fave season.
