Never been much of a Tim Burton fan, so I started it reluctantly. Turned out to be very entertaining.

The script can be clever, but my wife still won't watch it. We have enjoyed Enola Holmes on NF though. Looking forward to EH3.

I thought it was pretty good as well for basically being The Addams Family meets Harry Potter.

The casting of Gomez was atrocious, which was a shame because the rest of the cast was great.

I feel that way, too, but Guzman does fit right in with the Charles Addams' original caricatures.

Yeah, I saw what they wanted.

Penny and I enjoyed "Joe Picket" on Paramount+
It was a good story line and the acting was better than average.

We have been watching Tulsa King...just 5 episodes so far...they get a new one out each Sunday...
Caution Language is rough.

Ditto on both. I'm big CJ Box fan - a little over half through the Joe Pickett series of novels. The screen always deviates from the books when they make them into shows, but I thought they did a pretty good job with this one. The only character I struggled with was Nate Romanowski. In the books he is a very different character. I really enjoyed the show, though.

I'm also enjoying seeing Stallone in a darker role.

My two favorite shows right now are both older and free:

Corner Gas - Freevee. Dry humor and plenty of sarcasm.

The Closer - Pluto. Cop drama.
