Finished Twenty Five Twenty One. Contains a lot of fencing; practice & competitions. I enjoyed it.
Started Boyhood (aka Once Upon a Boyhood). Only watched first ep and laughed a lot, so far silly & fun. About a bullied high school boy who transfer schools and is mistaken for an infamous fighter.

Finished Dear Child on Netflix with my mom over the course of three nights. A good one if you like darker stuff. A short 6-episode miniseries. Foreign language.
(I'm now midway through season 6 of Peaky Blinders and season 4 of Babylon Berlin...) |

I've been watching Deadloch on Amazon Prime, a parody of murder mystery series like Broadchurch. I wasn't sure that I would keep watching after the first 2-3 episodes but then got hooked, and the mystery is actually pretty good. It makes fun of a lot of stuff like foodie culture and wellness tropes, while also being quite silly at times.

I just watched E7 again. The scene with his parents was heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. The point of him telling his story was to show how acceptance and love can overcome even the deepest psychological trauma - but also how easy it is for us (as humans) to do to others what has been done to us, even as we loathe that behavior in others. On a larger scale, it explains very well why America is where it is today. |

I finished A Man in Full series on netflix starring Jeff Daniels. I see the reviews are mixed, but I enjoyed it. It's about a real estate tycoon in Atlanta who is in financial trouble, another story about a man in prison for assaulting a cop, a couple of other side stories and they all intertwine. Some people didn't like the ending but I thought it was OK. Had no idea how it would all turn out. Pretty emotional last episode, at one point I was sobbing in relief/happiness. Very much R rated (language & sex.)
