You've probably heard the term small movie. Well this is a small tv series and I like it. It's very fresh to meet these characters in the context of small town Kansas. We're not in Kansas anymore? They are!

I'm fascinated by the great war. WW1. I always pause and read the names on memorials I come across, particularly in the ex-colonies. I imagine those kids loyally marching away from colonial safety and bucolic peace to the hell of the Western Front and Gallipoli, for the conceit of politicians and Kings. So I enjoyed. "1917" and earlier the Aussie TV miniseries "Gallipoli" released on the 100th Anniversary and available in streaming services too.

Easier to simply place them on ignore as many have done no doubt.

I just think Ivor is trying to wind Jingthing up............ its annoying when things are out of context, but I really dont think he is that worried about it all.

Having started  Bates Motel I'm pleased to say I'm quite impressed. It's got a good series  of unfolding storylines, credible relationships and pretty tight  mystery and suspense. FWIW It gets good reviews on RT with each series  getting better.
On another  note: I just watched E6 of  1883 a historical  prequel to Yellowstone.  Although  a great series episode 6 was a bit disappointing.

Pam & Tommy  was released  today February 2, 2022, on Hulu, just the  first three episodes so far and theirafter each episode  to be released weekly. I remember when the porno tape was released years ago. I'm going to wait to view the full series. I think the actress was famous for Orange is the new black the women prison drama an early Netflix production. Although OITNB was great Wentworth the Australian equivalent was perhaps  better and definitely  worth a look.

Closest I can find is "Sun Valley Scene"...  https://www.imdb.com/news/ni63354246 ?

 

Sun Valley, Idaho – Only at the Allen & Co. conference are you likely to stumble on the sight of Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg – No. 4 and No. 5 on the Forbes list of the world’s wealthiest people — taking a leisurely stroll on a street as aptly named as Dollar Road.

The two mega-minds of digital and business were seen doing just that on Thursday evening as the annual gathering of business, political and philanthropic movers and shakers at the ritzy Sun Valley Idaho mountain resort began to wind down. Disney’s Bob Iger and incoming Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav were out and about during the day but headed for the airport in the late afternoon. That was around the time Gates and Zuckerberg were seen walking and talking on the road that runs along the southern edge of the resort complex in the Sawtooth Mountains.

A while back I posted " bickering about the whole woke thing". I find that in a lot of series/movies it actually goes to far, never heard  of a black Macbeth. The complaints about this phenomena go to far, to often and to racist in some cases. When I did post about it, the people who actually do this asked me to name them. I did not. But now it goes on and on again and this time I will ask you politely: Igor and Hammer will please stop! If a series is not to your liking because it is to "woke" does NOT mean the rest of the world shares your view's. Not everybody like the confederate flag!

if you read what i wrote two very good series The Gilded Age and 1883 are my favourites ,but why must they include people just to be "inclusive" "or box ticking" if it is so important ,why not have white people playing parts that non whites would normally be .? oh and please do not say they used to ,the reason for this there were no actors of colour to play the parts in those days .

Do gypsies count as white?

Aside from that she's really cute!

Found 1883 episode 6 a bit dull.

Black people are not really black either. Altho' the GF I had when I was 18 - from West Africa - was really dark. Ballet dancer, crazy as a Loon, but ... exuberant !

Most cafe au lait, or mahogany, or ...

Watched House of Gucci last nite.

Lady Gaga does a good job, for her first time in a major movie.

But she is a talented girl anyway - music not to my taste, or the music videos, but no doubting her talent.

I just went to put out a request for someone to rip it and a lot of folks have already requested it, I don't think its out on BRD or on one of the legal streaming services yet, I think its a matter of hanging out.
