Really dug this one

BBC iPlayer is showing Time - very good police drama with Sean Bean and Stephen Graham.

My lady and I watched the first two episodes of Sweet Tooth last night. Crappity crap crap CRAP.

I mean, if you like it, fine. We didn’t.

McQueen is a good documentary about Alexander McQueen. The one thing that bothered me is that none of the people interviewed said a word about the fact that he killed himself the day before his mother's funeral. I mean what a fucking shit thing to do.

I went to the exhibition at the Met in NYC when it was there. Not begrudgingly exactly, but not excited either, except that my wife was excited and I was happy to see it with her. I was blown away seeing those outfits in person. Guy was an artist.

If it's any consolation, it's not one of those decisions you have much of a say in once the switch flicks.

Oh I'm not looking for consolation. Doesn't make him any less of an asshole, or any less in pain, or any less of an artist.

Also, he'd been talking about doing it for years. So, maybe the switch had been flipped, and the signal was on a dimmer.

A lovely thought, but sadly not how it is. Still, sounds an interesting doc.

I watched the first few episodes of Fallet. It was kinda fun.

The new Bo Burnham special is actually pretty funny.

I'd second this, just watched it today. That song, "Is this heaven or a white woman's instagram'' was hilarious.

Sweet Tooth on Netflix is better than I expected.
