Changed my mind. It still annoys me how long it takes Vince to tell a story on a scene-to-scene basis - the cold opens are painful - but Series 1 ended up a great slow burn that's poised things brilliantly.
I just hope Series 2 has more momentum from the off when it arrives.

For those who care:
Going to try and get back to making videos in a big way in 2026. A combination of real screenwriting work and psychological lethargy has held up production but I have plenty of ideas and a renewed energy to get them out.

City of Shadows was decently good. Love how it mixed in real social history. Solid methadone for Department Q fans waiting for series 2.

The Holdovers was pretty good as well as being the hundredth film I watched this year. Wasn't a specific aim, just realised I was getting close to triple digits last month.

Terrible, terrible shame about Vince Zampella. I'll always be grateful for him overseeing Titanfall 2, the best FPS game of all time. Spent hundreds of hours on that multiplayer.

I completely agree. Despite not giving a fuck about awards in general as a viewer/player I understand the massive importance for the creators and I think the laser focus on voice actors must be disappointing for others in performance.

Over time you kind of get used to the shit that Trump says but I'm actually disgusted by Trump's "eulogy" for Rob Reiner. Rob had more compassion, artistry and humanity in his big toe than Trump could muster in a hundred years.

Watched episode 4 and I can say little about this show other than that it's absolute drivel. If McTighe and Davies are permitted to continue working on Doctor Who etc. it will be nothing short of an embarrassment to British television.
The War Between the Land and the Sea is the worst thing any Sci-Fi can be: halfway between something serious and political and thematic (like The Three Body Problem) and something lighter that doesn't want you to think too much (like Doctor Who). Both of these are good - being in-between is not.

Four episodes in and I'm really not sure what to make of Pluribus. It's not actually particularly interesting, there's very little actual plot or hooks, it just has this carrot-stick thing going on where you hope it develops into something interesting.
