Covert Affairs is about a CIA agent, Annie Walker, finding a balance between secrecy with her sister, Danielle Brooks and success as a new operative under the command of Joan Campbell. Good thing she has a support network, though small, in Auggie Anderson and Jai Wilcox. As she becomes more experienced and confident in her…

TV Show Recommendation: Animal Kingdom (2016-2022)

11/27/2022

Amazon Recommendations, TV Recommendations

I can’t say enough good things about Animal Kingdom. Even after one of the major characters was written off the show, her replacement which was a younger version did just as well. The series ended on a somewhat predictable note, but with enough surprises and emotion that it cuts to the core. There really were…

TV Show Review Season Five: The Handmaid’s Tale (2022)

11/10/2022

TV Recommendations, TV Reviews

Before I begin with this review, I have to say there will be minor spoilers and the greatness of a writer in any kind of format is making the reader or viewer feel sympathy for a bad/evil character. Keep this is mind when you read this. By the end of the finale episode, I was…

TV Show Recommendation: The Americans (2013-2018)

10/31/2022

TV Recommendations

“The most interesting thing I observed during my time at the CIA was the family life of agents who served abroad with kids and spouses. The reality is that mostly they’re just people going about their lives. The job is one element and trying to depict the issues they face just seemed like something that,…

There will not be any major spoilers in this review! This will be the first Sunday where I have no new episode of House of the Dragon to watch. If you have seen all of Game of Thrones, you will understand the importance of the Targaryen’s when it comes to Westeros in George R.R. Martin’s…

TV Show Recommendation: The Umbrella Academy (2019-2023)

09/18/2022

Netflix Recommendations, TV Recommendations

I’m so glad The Umbrella Academy is coming back for another season. I was thinking the creators or Netflix can’t leave the ending like they did in the last episode of season three. While I had this in my queue forever and remember seeing the chimpanzee face that I later found out was named Pogo,…

TV Mini-Series Documentary Recommendation: We Need to Talk about Cosby (2022)

09/18/2022

Documentary Recommendations, TV Recommendations, TV Thoughts

It’s difficult to write and discuss about topics that most people find uncomfortable such as drugging women to take advantage of them. It’s even harder when the person involved whether it be a singer, movie star, or athlete is involved that many people once admired. I first learned about Bill Cosby through his successful TV…

Netflix TV Recommendation: Grace & Frankie (2015-2022)

05/22/2022

Netflix Recommendations, TV Recommendations

Old age comes to an end, even TV shows dealing with major family changes, and this includes Grace & Frankie. There were many good episodes from each season. The chemistry between Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin as Grace and Frankie was about as strong as they come. The comedic chemistry between Martin Sheen and Sam…

TV Show Recommendation: Lethal Weapon (2016-2019)

03/13/2022

TV Recommendations

The good thing about watching a cancelled TV show a few years after it went off air is there’s no waiting for the next season because you already know when it ended. The bad news is when you enjoy watching the show and know there’s no more left to watch when it ends. Lethal Weapon…
