I rewatched season 2 of Ozark because it had been sooo long since I had watched it the first time and god damn I forgot how good that show is. 6 episodes into season 3 it's still really good but not quite as crazy as season 2 although I am assuming it picks up to close out the season. Spoilers in the spoilers.

Got 3 episodes left. Pacing was great so far. Nothing too crazy. I feel a storm coming.

It’s Breaking Bad - very lite that sacrifices the artistry that made BB so great for faster pace and cheap entertainment value. I love it. Can’t wait to binge season 3. Just started Tiger show.

I have really enjoyed it! I stayed up way past my bedtime watching "just one more" lately.

Adam Schlesinger, one of the leaders of Fountains of Wayne, passed away today (https://consequenceofsound.net/2020/04/adam-schlesinger-dies-coronavirus/).

I really liked FoW (well, the first few records at least). They were a really fun band.

He was also the brains behind Ivy:

Pretty sure I may have linked this one before. Don't care. It's perfect.

Cool tune. Kind of reminiscent of "Smalltown Boy" by Bronski Beat, a huge hit in the mid-eighties.

Yeah, saw a few people note that in the comments. For whatever reason, I just played Smalltown Boy last week for the first time in like 30 years. Weeeird. I posted the album version, but have already decided that I like this live version more, because... well... guitar distortion rules.

It's sheer brilliance. The writing is excellent. The direction, which is mostly Bateman in season 3 is phenomenal. He frames shots so well. And Laura Linney and Tom Pelphrey who played Wendy's brother were absolutely masterful. Linney's range during this season was a clinic in series acting 101.

Not to mention Julia Garner.

RIP Bill. Still Bill is such a great album. One of the first soul records I ever bought.

I beat God of war this past weekend (great game) and been watching Future Man on hulu. Season 1 I really liked and was funny, but I didn't like season 2 as much. Season 3 was just released yesterday on my bday. 36 years. Where does time go?

Belated happy bday, SC33! I feel the same way about Future Man. Enjoyed S1 so much but S2 was a bit of a letdown. Too weird for my taste. Gonna check out S3 tomorrow or Monday.

Thanks! I was thinking after I finish this 3rd season of Future Man I'd jump into Castle Rock. I watched the first episode a few weeks ago and liked it, but just got swept up into other things before I could continue it.

Totally get the Bronski Beat vibe. Kinda likes mix of them and Siouxsie.
