COBRA KAI Season 3 on Netflix was amazing and long overdue. Heard from Ralph Macchio they have 6 seasons planned and I hope that's true as this show has plenty of life in it and I love watching it develop. Can't wait for Season 4 (hopefully next year)!
THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT on HBO Max was ok. Took a few episodes for me to warm up to it and while it salvaged itself, it should have been left as a limited series and not renewed for a second.
A TEACHER on Hulu was a very well constructed series with great performances by both Kate Mara and Nick Robinson. Well worth the watch.

The first 2 episodes of WANDAVISION on Disney+ were a lot of fun. I loved the throwback sitcom feel of the 1950's. Still curious what this show is entirely about and how it'll cross multiple decades, but I look forward to viewing it!

BCS aside, Cobra Kai is the best show on TV by far. I've heard rumors that Terry Silver will show up in Season 4

Agreed about it being the best show on TV right now and yes, I fully expect Terry Silver to be in Season 4. My prediction was Kreese was on the phone to him at the end of Season 3.

Good catch. I've heard that the actor who played Terry Silver retired from acting many years ago, but I can't imagine him turning down Cobra Kai. You might as well turn down a winning Powerball ticket

They've been great about bringing people back so I suspect he'll do it. They're having too much fun on that show. I was so happy they got Elisabeth Shue as Ali back!

It was my understanding that AMC had a monopoly on The Godfather's broadcasting. However, lately I've seen listings for it on Showtime. Perhaps AMC licensed Showtime for broadcasting it.
Also, over the past year, it seems The Godfather has been broadcast almost every week where it used to be broadcast only once in awhile.

THE SONS OF SAM: A DESCENT INTO DARKNESS on Netflix was very good. 4, 1 hour episodes did it just right. Not too short, but not bloated either. If you enjoy true crime documentaries, you'll enjoy this.

I'd probably rate the first season as the best, followed by season 3 and season 2 respectively.
I watched the first episode of season 4 and will give the rest of the season a pass.
Chris Rock is not a good fit for this show and I don't find any of the other characters remotely interesting. The humour missed the mark (what was that farting scene about?), the narrative flow was all over the place, and there was a waft of wokeness around proceedings that I wasn't feeling at all.
I invoke my right under the 5th amendment of the United States constitution and decline to answer the question.

John Krasinski is at it again, wonderfully weaving suspense and themes of family, loss, and communication throughout his follow-up to the hugely successful original. The opening plays as a brief prequel, beginning on day 1 and the monster's arrival on earth. From there, we're immediately thrown back to the end of Part I and pick the Abbott's up from there. Having their home destroyed with the events in the first film, the Abbott family is now on the move, seeking shelter and resources. They come upon Cillian Murphy's Emmett and his hideout in a local steel mill (Cillian having being introduced to us during said prequel). The film then splits off into 2, and then at times, 3 separate storylines before coming together at the end. Again, Krasinski leaves the film on such a high note that the audience is wanting more and this is easily left open for a third installment that I'm sure will come to fruition once the numbers from this weekend roll in. If you enjoyed the events of the original, you're going to enjoy this sequel just as much as this is truly a sequel, and not just a bridge to a third, trilogy ending film. For my money, I still prefer the original slightly more, but this is definitely a film enjoyed in theaters. 7.5/10

Disney is once again showing their baddies some love, moving on from Maleficent and this time turning their attention to Cruella de Vil. When the trailer was originally dropped, fans complained about how this was too similar to JOKER, which it was not. And even if it was, would that really be such a bad thing? Considering JOKER made over $1 billion and won multiple Oscars. However, had this not been a Disney property and constrained by the House of Mouse, this could have been a better and darker film. As such, it's still a fun ride but just missed it's potential in my opinion. Emma Stone is deliciously devilish as Estella/Cruella, an orphan who grows up on the hard streets of London with her friends and pseudo-family Jasper (Joel Fry) and Horace (Paul Walter Hauser) working as grifters to get by. By the time she's an adult, she sets her sights on becoming a fashion designer, wanting to work at the most "in" store in town, hoping it'll be a springboard for her to break into the business. Unfortunately for her, she's hired as a cleaner and rebuffed by her boss whenever she attempts to pitch him ideas. Terrible and unsatisfied at her position, she's soon hired by the Baroness (Emma Thompson) immediately after being fired from her cleaning position. The Baroness is THE last word in fashion during this time period of London in the 1970's. Before long, Estella embraces her Cruella side before going toe-to-toe with the Baroness for both personal and professional reasons. Stone was most enjoyable when she was given the freedom to dial up the Cruella character, but sadly, this is short lived. Jasper and Horace both shine in their own way as her sidekicks and you can feel the chemistry between the three. However, the most enjoyable interactions are between Estella/Cruella and the Baroness herself. Throughout the duration of the film, Thompson at times seems to be the heart and soul of this story. She is likewise absolutely wonderful and her many scenes with Stone never become stale or dull. I'd be up for more of Cruella's antics if Disney were to roll the dice on her sequel. 6.5/10

Last I heard Netflix was planning on releasing it this year and if trailers are beginning to drop, I'd say it's a safe bet at this point. Fingers crossed because I'm chomping at the bit to get my next COBRA KAI fix!

I heard rumors there may be a second season and that Kate Winslet would love to come back for it. We'll see but the show gained audience week after week and the numbers were good so I'd be surprised if HBO didn't do a second season (although I say leave it alone).

Pros: Great cast of characters, surprisingly nuanced characters, fast-paced, funny, strong narrative flow, charismatic antihero Vic Mackey, great LA cinematography, shades of grey, seamy subject matter
Cons: No cursing, some bad acting (mostly guest stars with Lem the only weak main character), at times cliched dialogue with extraneous characters, poor soundtrack, jock humor, sometimes the show moves too fast and doesn't let the story breathe

THE SHIELD is one of my favorite shows of all-time and IMO, one of the most underrated ever. Unfortunately, it came out when 24 aired and being on FX as opposed to Fox, guess which people watched more.

I was looking forward to this before and now I'm even more excited: Disney+ is releasing a documentary on The Beatles entitled GET BACK. It's now expanded to 3 episodes, each 2 hours in length! Directed by Peter Jackson and dropping Thanksgiving weekend.
