You're dead to me. :)

I've been watching the young adult book series turned TV series called 100, based on a post nuclear apocalypse. I'm really enjoying it and binging it during my time recovering from hospital.

Just finished the first (of 3) segments of Jeen-yuhs on Netflix. It was interesting to see that he struggled a lot for the initial break and had to really fight for it. It's watchable because it's before he became a humongous asshole. He's just an awkward kid with braces, hopeful that he will make it but not all that sure about his rapping abilities. It's kind of endearing to see him get approval from established rappers of the era. I guess the next chapters will be much more uncomfortable as we see him evolve from this talented, motivated but awkward and insecure kid into the giant mess we all know him as today. :/

The narration is really annoying though, the intonation is like a kid rehearsing lines for a school play.

Finished. Sad ending. It's difficult watching people unravel on camera, even someone as obnoxious as him. I honestly had no idea about the severity of his mental illness.

That aside, I resented a little bit how the filmmaker kept trying to make this film about himself or to insert himself into the story. It was painfully obvious he was a hanger-on who was cut loose quite quickly. And of course, since he is also Christian, it annoyingly ends with some Christian platitudes.

Overall interesting viewing, even for those of us who are not particular fans of the music. Even I had to admit this guy is a multitalented genius.

I was watching Atlanta Season 2 but kind of gave up around the barbershop episode. I'm just not connecting to the slacker comedy vibe. :/

I enjoyed this show when it came out but boy did it not age well. Cringe's the word

I just finished Obi-Wan. I liked it. I liked how they focused more on Leia than Luke.

There was a UK House of Cards? I'll be damned. I haven't seen the US version. Perhaps I should start with the UK one? Thoughts?

First two seasons were awesome. I couldn't get past a few episodes into the third season. Classic first album syndrome. They used up all the good material they had been incubating their entire lives.

More or less the same for me. Never finished it.

Same for me too. Enjoyed the first season when it came out, tired of it soon after and now even the first season doesn't appeal to me anymore. It's funny how things can shift like that
