Hunters

Nothing much compelling coming up and I’ve been playing a little catchup. I enjoyed the second season of Shrill which though lead by the great Aidy Bryant really has a great supporting cast. I also finally finished Downton Abbey and (spoiler alert for those who care) though everyone ended up a bit too resolved and happy in this end I forgive it after all the years of turmoil but I’m actually hesitant to crack their lives back open with the movie. I also caught up to the latest live episodes of Schitts Creek in a series that grows on you as the characters grow within their oddball community.

For the latest new shows I’m still hanging on a bit for Katy Keene (which is likely a little too cute for me to hang in there), Briarpatch (which is odd enough for me to check out one more), and Tommy & Lincoln Rhyme (which are both pretty generic but Edie Falco/Russell Hornsby and cast might give it more life). I’ve also been very much enjoying Everything’s Going To Be Okay which is sweet and quirky with a cast that makes it compelling and Dare Me that’s got just enough serious drama to keep me involved in the cheerleading shenanigans.
