Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

What have your thoughts been on the series so far?
The last episode I watched (No.4) was a little slow but if you enjoy watching documentaries on 9/11, the war on terrorism or the inner workings of American government and it's institutions during significant periods or events then you'll find something to enjoy like me.

I haven't read the book but the life journey of F.B.I. agent John O'Neill a central character seems a total work of fiction and yet it isn't.

If you aren't familiar with him or googled like I couldn't resist then don't if you want to be surprised by how the series will end.

A new show called The Terror dropped today and it looks like a ripper if you enjoy a good scare.

I binged Seven Seconds on Netflix over Easter. Has a bit of The Shield feels about it.

Didn't mind it.

A year old now, so not that new, but "The Marvelous Mrs Maisel", on Amazon. Witty, feminist in a generous way, spirited and often laugh out loud. If WPT still visits here, I imagine he would love it, given its homage to great Jewish humor.

Last night's episode of The Handmaid's tale was especially horrific.
