    I live in the Montreal area so I knew all about the murder and the packages sent to Politcal parties headquarters.
    I wasn't aware of all the rest though. Those internet vigilante work is just simply crazy!

    I think this was my only gripe with the series, they romanticized the hell out of being an "internet vigilante".

    When they're are a number of times the internet got it wrong and there were consequences.

    I thought they did a good job of reflecting upon the possible culpability of the internet sleuths in the escalation of the story.

    I also felt like approaching it from the perspective of the sleuths they gave it that detective story angle that really made it pop.

    I haven't played the video game, but I have read the first book, Last Wish, in the book series. This first season follows the Last Wish quite well with some characters from later books introduced in the Netflix series for continuity sakes.

    The film adaptation is full of great action, merging storylines, and Cavill plays Geralt of Rivia quite well, even nailing Geralt's trademark "hmmph" on several occasions.

    Finally finished The Keepers. It was good but a bit anticlimactic.

    I stand by my take that the Witcher is a very fun watch and I loved Cavill as Geralt.

    It took 4-5 episodes but I'm finally hooked on Witcher. Glad I hung in there, thought about ditching it many times early on

    Now I can't wait for season 2! Contemplating whether I should read the books... doesn't seem to have the same praise that the GOT books received. Anyone read them?

    Star Trek fans rejoice...Picard is back. I just watched the first episode of Star Trek: Picard, and it was quite enjoyable. Unlike past Star Trek series, where the main cast met with a new problem every episode, Picard looks to be a mystery / whodunit sort of deal that will last the span of ten episodes. Of course, it also attempts to cover some of what has happened since we last saw Capt. Picard in the movie "Nemesis", but the introduction of some new characters mixed with the (potential?) return of favorites like Data and Will Riker is especially very enticing to an old Trekkie like me.

    Just finished the second season of Big Little Lies. Totally enoyed it. Meryl Streep is a rock star actress. She is amazing. Me and the missus dont find a lot of shows we both enjoy together. This is definitely one of them.

    Toss a coin to your Witcher should have been nominated last night. That's all I know.

    I haven't but watching the show made me want to do the same.

    Curb snuck up on me. I had forgotten it was returning until I saw a picture of Larry David wearing a MAGA hat and immediately knew it was a plot line of Larry pretending to be a Trump supporter to get out of some trivial engagement.

    Amathing few episodes so far.
