Loki(s) are at it again. Another very entertaining episode. Owen Wilson is really impressing me. Everything I predicted would happen this season happens this week (!!). So I am all out of ideas for the rest of the season. I can't wait to see what happens next.

Sona and I recap all of season 1 of Evil in preparation for Season 2, next week. We get through it all and have time to dig into some of the broader themes that the show raises. You still have time to watch Season 1 on Netflix before watching season 2 on Paramount+.

Recommendations:

Sona - The Night Manager (Amazon Prime/AMC)

Victor - Only Lovers Left Alive (AppleTV)

The third time may be the charm with these Marvel shows. After two disappointing series, this one is off to a fun start. Is the TVA benevolent? What are they hiding? Who is the hooded character at the end. I have my speculations. Have a listen and let me know what you think.

Recommendations:

Brazil (Tubi/Kanopy)

Invincible (Amazon Prime)

After two disappointing MCU shows do we have a winner? 

Based on this first episode I think we do. 

These are my first impressions and we will have a lot more to say about it tomorrow. 

Make sure you subscribe so you know when we post.

So we are at the end of our first season and Mare of Easttown is over. How did you like it? Who was your favorite character (aside from Mare)? Who was your least favorite? Were there too many red herrings?

We will be recapping Loki (Disney+) and Evil (Paramount+) next. There are quite a few reasons to get Paramount+ (watch A Quiet Place 2, Top Gun 2 and the new Mission Impossible at home) let me count the ways...

Music

Incinerate - Sonic Youth

I Know the End - Phoebe Bridgers

Here we are at the end. My theory proved correct!! Almost everything is wrapped up but somehow it is all still a bit underwhelming. Nonetheless, everyone continues to give great performances. Plus we talk about what is to come in our next recaps.

Music:

We Belong - Pat Benetar

State of the Union (Sundance/AMC)

In the light of the unfortunate 4th anniversary of Chris Cornell’s passing here is an episode where we discuss his influence on the alternative metal music that emerged in the 90s and early 2000s. We also discuss how foundational Soundgarden was to establishing Sub Pop and the entire Seattle scene.

Make sure to check out his solo work, as well. There are lots of songs here. I will update the notes if I have missed some.
