I watched 60 seconds of an
anime once. Wanted to kill
myself three times in less
than a minute..

Will be watching the finale of "Making the cut" with Heidi Klum and Tim Gunn tonight.

An apparent step up from project runway. Definitely some fashion artists.

You made my point for me. Just
looking the pic makes me want
to hurt something.

Uh Oh. Rush said today that season
6 of Bosch is the best season so far.
l


I disagree with Rush, this is the
worst season of Bosch. It's boring
and has too many side stories. I've
seen 8 episodes and doubt I could
even say what the main story line is,
there are too many and they're all
boring. I could have written this
review:

What happened with this season?
Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2020

What happened with this season? Something changed; there are so many side stories that are just downright distracting. I feel like there are so many meaningless filler scenes in this season. did writers or director change? Please bring back the original Bosch series back!!

I never learn. Netflix series Outer Banks. The
first episode seemed okay. The second episode
fell apart halfway through. The acting got
cheesy, the story got erratic. I realized I didn't
care about any of the characters. It's Netflix,
I should have known better.

Thank you Harry Bosch. He's listening
to jazz album by famous artist Art
Pepper. And it just killed. I loved it.
I went to Youtube and found the
song that was playing. And a lot
of other stuff by Pepper. What a
talent. What a life.

His parents were violent alcoholics.
Pepper became a heroin addict
in the 40's and went to prison
4 separate times for a total of
8 years. Some of it in San Quentin.
Died in his 50's like most lifelong
heroin addicts. Gifted sax player,
though.

This what was played in the final
ep of Bosch. Which was a great
episode.

The whole series on Bosch had great jazz. Thanks for putting that up there, I went for a ride down jazz alley. Ended up at Stevie Ray Vaughan, "Tin Pan Alley". Danced with my wife, it's good.

Just discovered Weeds on Nflix. It
was on Showtime from 05 to 12.
Never even heard of it. What a
cast. Mary Louise Parker, back
when she was still beautiful.
Kevin Nealon, Elizabeth Perkins
as the bitchy neighbor. Justin
Kirk as the brother in law Andy.
Probably the best character on
the show so far. Priceless when
he explains jerking off to his 12
year old nephew. Wish I had
somebody like that when I was
12.
Weeds is coming back later this
year on Starz with the same
cast. Except MLP is 56 and not
42 anymore. Drag.. And her
kids will be in their 30's.
