gourd
the old man
i just started old MOne It airs on FX, but is free on Hulu (or purchased on Amazon Prime). It’s based on the best-selling novel of the same name and stars my favorite actor, Jeff Bridges, as the main character, Dan Chase. He plays a former CIA operative who has been kept off the grid and is flushed out of hiding when an assassin tries to take him away. I’ll admit that the fight scene in the first episode almost made me laugh out loud, it’s ridiculous, but it’s a great episode that leaves you guessing. The series has a strong cast, with John Lithgow and Arya Shawkat also starring.
Bear
We love Jeremy Allen White shameless Great to see him in this new American comedy, Bear on the gourd.

We’re excited to delve into this this fall!

What makes the show even more addictive is that the lead detective on the case is also a Mormon and finds conflict in separating and questioning his beliefs from his work.

succession
we’re a little late succession Phenomenon, but I’m glad I finally got it, because it’s only 4 episodes and I’m addicted. I’m usually not a corporate/commercial show girl, but after multiple referrals I finally gave in and thank goodness I did. The Successor is a comedy drama that highlights the way business and family are conflated. When the head of the international media conglomerate refused to give up his company despite his old age and serious illness, his family tried to step in and family loyalties began to split.
Netflix
Stranger Things
we love Stranger Things. This is probably our all-time favorite show. After last season, we actually experienced a slight depression because it was just that good. Stranger Things is such a unique show that does it well in so many ways. Everything from the characters to the plot, music and effects brings all that nostalgic feeling in the best possible way. Set in the ’80s, this sci-fi meets horror classic, (going back to a time when horror was cool and less bloody) Stranger Things follows small-town teens fighting for their lives and surviving from the terrifying supernatural forces below. Save their town. There’s a reason it won 3 Emmys in “Outstanding Drama” If you haven’t already, (I’m jealous) watch Stranger Things now!

Ted’s Lasso
we’re a little late Ted Russo Games… (no pun intended), but after just a few episodes I immediately understood what all the buzz was about. Each character is cuter than the next, and they all start to feel like family. Between Ted’s thought-provoking and insightful cast, Keeley’s optimism, Rebecca’s sheer mischief, and Roy’s British procrastination and honesty, they all blend together to form the best of the bunch.
