Elsbeth (2024– )
10/10
Nobody as annoying since Columbo!
25 March 2024
These comments are regarding the Pilot. I'm so, so delighted to see the return of Elspeth! My gawd she so hilarious. She's my absolute favorite goofball with an outsized brain. I remember thinking she was a Columbo in bright colors on The Good Wife. She's a delight to watch while exercising your own powers of observation. As some others have already mentioned, the show pacing was perfect from the start. That is no small feat as there are thousands of who-done-it shows in the past. The cast is great and the arrogance of the killer also reminds me of Columbo. Im buckled in for this ride. Thoroughly entertaining and so much fun!

Cry Macho (2021)
5/10
When the Cock Crows
2 October 2023
I lived this little confection of a Movie, un dulce de vida. I wondered at Clint's fragility but as everyone has been saying, he's 91! Actually there's a line in the film that encapsulates the theme. I won't give it away but before my own father died we discussed how many of us do not learn how to live until it is too late.

I really enjoyed this film and the sentiment conveyed. You have to shut up and listen just like you might do if Grandpa sat down to talk and share a beer with you. Everyone else in the cast was adorable, including all the animals and small children. Thanks Mr. Eastwood you old crusty sweetheart.

Rivers of Life (2019–2022)
10/10
Gorgeous, Interesting and Entertaining
25 October 2022
I've always been fascinated by waterfalls, rapids and lakes. This series is amazing. The photography is top notch. The narrative has interesting facts to share about each River. The interviews provide a snapshot of human interaction with each location.

The narrator keeps the story going and his delivery is straightforward and not distracting. The arial photography allows us to see awesome sights. The nature photography captures all the riveting natural drama. The closeups are incredible.

I really want to compliment the entire team that brought Rivers of Life to us. Really enjoyable. Thank you 🙏🏻

Bosch: Legacy (2022– )
10/10
Reminiscent of Chinatown
10 May 2022
I'm loving this continuation of Bosch! Love the cast, always love the locations. Especially glad to see Phil Morris, as I grew up watching his Dad on Mission: Impossible yeah I'm dating myself. The production values are also delicious so when I saw the gorgeous mansion in S1 bathed in golden light I thought of Polanski's "Chinatown". Legacies all around! Love the writing thanks for making this show everybody! Everybody counts, or Nobody Counts!
