Just a few of the things I've been watching lately:
The Leftovers (HBO) A certain percent of the world population mysteriously disappeared in a single event, and the show follows the lives of a community coping with it. Really strange and interesting show. Season 2 came out recently and I'm enjoying it as much if not more than the first. You're the Worst (FX/Hulu) Essentially a romantic comedy focused on two anti-relationship who meet at a mutual friend's wedding. Quite funny. Salamander (BBC/Netflix) A Belgian crime thriller in which a police inspector investigates the robbery of 66 safe deposit boxes at a private bank in Brussels - the contents of which are used to blackmail government officials in order for this organized group to gain more control over the government. Flemish with English subtitles. Working through this one slowly as my girlfriend didn't enjoy it, so I watch an episode whenever I have time alone.

Play it Loud: The Story of the Marshall Amp
One iconic black box has probably more than anything else come to define the sound of rock - the Marshall amplifier. It has been, quite literally, behind some of the greatest names in modern music. BBC iPlayer - Play it Loud: The Story of the Marshall Amp Good watch. Also been watching Vikings courtesy of a months free trial of Amazon Prime. Really enjoying it. |

Hate to admit it but I'm hooked on Below Deck.

^Goddam I didn't even know about this! I might buy The Criterion Collection DVD. Me, I've been visiting an old standby. Season 3 and 4 is my favorite era.

Fishing With John is goddamned amazing. It's on Netflix if you're inclined to try it before you buy it.
