TV & Film The TV Room

NCIS Origins? I am watching that one, and I'm really enjoying it.

No, just the main one. I haven't watched Origins yet.

We are almost finished with The Pitt. We will start this show next. Widow's Bay.

Widow’s Bay review – Matthew Rhys’ intoxicating comedy-horror is an absolute blast

Mare of Easttown meets Schitt’s Creek in this rich, wonderful and laugh-out-loud series, in which a put-upon mayor tries to turn a cursed New England island into a tourist hotspot

I enjoyed the second series of The Pitt more than the first one, but I really liked both. I suppose I knew the characters more in the second season.

I finished "Imperfect Women". I thought it was really good. It was from a book but when I read an article, it said they changed the ending and told it so I won't read it. It was intended as a miniseries and did wrap up the story but there is talk of another season. The actors have expressed interest so we shall see.

Watched Coffee Wars, a comedy film about a vegan cafe owner taking part in the World Barista Competition, her underdog status made even more so by its dairy dictats. There's things to like, initially at least, but some of the propaganda felt toe-curlingly clumsy—and that's speaking as a member of the choir.

Watched The Big Year as a palate cleanser. Recommended. It's like Planes, Trains & Automobiles but with birdwatching. Top stuff, and despite being 20th Century Fox it still managed more subtlety than the above.

I was listening to NPR on the drive home and they were reviewing that--I may get a month of netflix just to see it!

I finished the Pitt, not sure what next
I loved Fallout but now it feels far too close to becoming real

After seeing the show mentioned here - and because I am a gardener and love gardening - I turned the show on last night… Less than a few minutes into it I turned it off…
Perhaps I didn’t give it long enough to understand it, but I wasn’t impressed… I’ve never heard of Zach Galifianakis before and I didn’t think that he was particularly entertaining…

he is a comedian/actor and the 'growing' part of it was the interesting part - episode 1 was apples, episode 2 was tomatoes, episode 3 was foraging - haven't watched the rest yet - he does interact with children and he isn't a vegan so those parts may be annoying - I learned lots thought
