Check out Beef on Netflix. Just finished it. Easily the best show of 2023 so far imo.
Broderick Crawford was the Gene Hackman of his day, unlike Gene he was a prodigious drinker who never sought the need to reform. He won an Oscar for All The King's Men, it was remade in the late 00's with Sean Penn and James Gandolfini.
I don't want to put up with Disney's vapid shit but I may not have a choice. They now own Fox Entertainment, the excellent FX content is not available anywhere else. S4 of Fargo isn't on Netflix and no sign of The Bear.
Bob Odenkirk (Saul Goodman) is in S2 of The Bear, look like I have no choice but to sign up.
Too many streaming services to consider. I lost interest in House of Cards after Rachel Brosnahan was no longer part of it. Extremely talented young actress!
Do I have to sign up to Amazon Prime as well, or can I get in with my Amazon account?

The Critical Borracho just can't leave it alone.
Sure she's a modest talent but those Disney cheques are hard to turn down.

I've been watching Paper Girls on Prime and if you're looking for something to fill the gap until Stranger Things returns, it definitely will. I watched Outer Range and Tales from The Loop and I wasn't impressed with either.
Just to add to this, Citadel on Prime has been great so far too.
I'm currently watching The Sandman on Netflix and it's been excellent so far. Though considering that it's a fantasy series on Netflix, I'm not hopeful it's going to get a second season. I also watched 1899 and you can add my voice to the chorus who are disappointed that it was cancelled after one season, I hope that another streaming service picks it up or they do a movie to wrap it up.
Just to add to this, if you watch 1899, don't skip the opening sequence! Not only is is really cool, you'll also realize that it telegraphed the plot twist when you watch the final episode.

I finished streaming GLOW. it was very enjoyable, in S3 they did something I wasn't expecting in the least.
The gave GLOW Champion Welfare Queen an All That Jazz cold open complete with Vivaldi. All three of Bob Fosse's 70's films are absolute classics. The film relaunched Jessica Lange's career after the King Kong time out, she plays Josephine Black in it. Probably one of the best openings for any film.

Never thought I'd see the day that David St Hubbins would play the POTUS, which Michael McKean does in The Diplomat. He's a forceful President, he tells Kari Russell (Ambassador Kate Wyler) to wash her ass.
It's a good mix with veteran warhorses Rufus Sewell and Rory Kinnear in the mix. Unfortunately we wont see a new season of this for well over two years. The writers strike could drag on for the remainder of the year. The previous writers strike doomed the conclusion of The Wire.

"Platonic" is kind of funny.
The show is smarter and funnier than the trailer...

From the "it's about time" file, Jada Pinkett Smith has been cancelled by Facebook.
She was steadily losing audience to the extent that her show is more expensive to produce than to air. She would get regular looks spikes when she talked about her marriage, putting Will Smith in awkward situations. The humiliation proved too much for him. Since that very expensive slap to Chris Rock, W Smith has not appeared on her Facebook show. Now she's toast, maybe Elon will give a chance.
Netflix also cancelled her Black Queens series. Mingia, Emperor Septimus Severus was blacker than Cleopatra.
