WandaVision S3 — this episode started to show more action. There’s hope of some decent action next week. 
 

in a twist I don’t yet understand, the show’s theme/setting moved ahead a full decade. 

Spoiler

They have jumped time in every episode. The house is different in every one as well. At the end when Wanda ejected the black chick that knew her you can see there is a Truman Show thing going on. 

Also one thing I learned after the show is the black chick is the daughter of Captain Marvel's friend.

Based on the trailers, it sure looks like it goes full Marvel on spectacle at some point.

Haven't seen Wandavision.  But by what you are describing, it sure does sound like you are describing Agents of Shields device the Framework.

Episode 4 is very good.  Surprise characters from the Marvel universe, some questions answered but not too many.  If you have watched the movies this is the episode for you.

Finished S602 of Vikings on Amazon

Writers stretched quite a bit of the 20 episodes.

Nothing special, but worth watching IMO

 

[Tank]

just finished S5 of The Shield. Wow. 

Spoiler

RIP Lem. It seemed obvious that that was going to be their way out, but still to see them pull it off was crushing. And the attorney that's representing Vic and his team? om nom nom.

The only problem I have with this episode is we never even got a glance of Kat Demmings real pair of talent.

Finished watching it.  Actually found out I missed season 5.  So it was a long binge.  I kind of liked it.  But the Ivar and Hvitserk characters just didn't do it for me.  I also thought Floki's character just went on and on when it really didn't need to.  But it was a fun watch.

Agree about Floki. 

There's going to be a spin-off that picks up about a century later with some good characters.

for anyone who's interested, sundance channel is airing the second part of Roots tonight. They aired the first 4 or 5 episodes last night and will air the remaining episodes tonight.

this was such a good series. i used to show the first two episodes to my 8th graders so they could get a sense of how horrible it all truly was.

[gotbeer]

Netflix:  The Dig  A historical story about the discovery of a ancient burial site in England just before WW2.  It's fairly straightforward, no flash, very one dimensional.  This is pretty much only for those that like obscure history stories.  But really skipping the history part, and focusing on the people that found the history.  Probably not for many, as it's pretty boring.  They could have made it much more interesting if they went into the history of who they found, maybe even flashbacks.  But the items they found were really only a prop for the movie.

[gotbeer]

Netflix:  Spycraft  An interesting look into spies and what they used.  And also how some got caught.  It was also fun to see how much of what they were talking about was actually in the show Americans.  Good casual show if you want to know more about spies.

[gotbeer]

Netflix:  Below Zero  I think it's a Spanish film, about a prisoner transfer that goes wrong.  It's an ok time killer.  Nothing too spectacular in it.  Story line is ok.  Probably a pass for most.
