I kept seeing discussions about Peaky Blinders, someone at work mentioned it to Ron, so we watched an episode last night. I'm not impressed. I love British drama but I just wasn't feeling it lol. Ron said let's give it another one or two episodes.
We also watched the Guardians of the Galaxy Christmas special. Don't bother. It was pretty awful lol. Kind of ruined my feelings about Mantis and Drax. The characters were so badly written in this, IMO.

On Three Pines. My best friend and I are both huge Louise Penny fans. We agree that the casting of Gamache was right on. Ruth was also good, as were Gabi and Olivier. But Peter and Clara Morrow are just wrong.
Didn't see if anyone was watching The White Lotus. OMG!

DotRen, I agree about Peaky Blinders. I think I watched all of the first season and just never went back to it.

DotRen , I agree about Peaky Blinders. I think I watched all of the first season and just never went back to it. Same here. We watched 3 or 4 episodes over a year ago. Every time we see it in our Continue Watching folder, we pass on it. I can't even remember now why we moved on from it. lol

Who knows? DH and I are holding off on the White Lotus finale until Friday pizza night. I'm very happy I have not seen any spoilers anywhere!

Black Adam was a disappointment I was hoping it would be good, and there were some good parts, but it was just not good lol.

I was blindsided by the end of WHITE LOTUS. I had read an article online that said one of the characters was definitely going to be in the next series set in Japan. Well, that character died in the finale. Perhaps they will be appearing in a flashback. I kept telling DH "Don't worry, so-and-so will survive". Wrongie-dongie.

ROFL lani you might want to add a spoiler alert to your post for those that haven't seen it. 🤣 * Laughing because your post above was how glad you were you hadn't seen any spoilers. What did I spoil? I did not name the character or the gender. We all knew SOMEONE died because it was explicitly shown in the first episode. Actually it was stated multiple bodies had been found. In the first episode. Perplexed emoji. The stated premise of each series is that it starts with a death. The rest of the series involves flashing back a few weeks and faking the viewer out as to who it is. And if there is more than one death. It will be the same with the next series which will be set in Japan. I suppose if someone had never seen the first one in Maui and had not seen any episodes of the second, could be a spoiler. If so, mea culpa. The spoiler I was happy I didn't see was who died in the last episode. Someone dies in EVERY White Lotus series.

We watched Season 3 of Jack Ryan on Amazon Prime. We really liked it, especially John Krasinski. They are approved for Season 4. Yea!
Today we'll watch the movie Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery on Netflix.

I got caught up in the first season of LOVE IS BLIND on NetFlix, but it turned out to be a letdown at the end. But I was riveted for quite a while.
Still really enjoying INSIDE MAN also on NetFlix. Our streaming service has been in and out, so I am behind with a lot of Prime, NetFlix content. I think I have only one more episode of Inside Man to go.

linda72, that's on our list today and tomorrow lol. We didn't think Krasinski would be a good cast, but he's great in the role. I saw Designated Survivor come across my suggestions so I watched a couple of episodes and I'm hooked. I think it will get old, the constant crisis, his mild mannered demeanor, inside men, conspiracy...
