I’m changing up these Thursday posts a bit since we tend to discuss different shows and movies we’ve watched in the comments. So from now on, these Thursday posts are where I share various shows I’ve been watching through out the week or maybe a movie I streamed and you can also use the comments to share what you’ve been watching with other readers as well.
This past week I binge watched Platonic on AppleTV+. Watched a few episodes on the plane and then continued once I got back. It’s a cool show, I had fun watching it. I also binge watched Hijack on AppleTV+. I’m not sure if I like it yet, the first episode felt like it was full of B-rated cast but the show got me hooked so they’re doing something right.
Finally, I watched the movie The Beanie Bubble also AppleTV+. It was fun to watch but if you’re a Beanie Babies fan you might start hating them after this movie.

ooooh wait for the big twist in Hijack
I’m up to date, watched episode 7 last night but don’t spoil it for anyone. I should actually mention “no spoilers in the comments”
This week i saw
* The Oufit (2022 movie) – good one
* Sympathy For The Devil (2023 movie) – good one
* Boys (season 1) i am on episode 7 – liking it
* Witcher (season 3) i am on episode 3 – typical witcher series
The Boys is great!
movie recommendations:
– Green Lantern: Beware My Power (2022) it’s my favourite movie from Tomorrowverse. on the other hand, Justice League: Warworld (2023) wasn’t great.
– Good Time (2017) no one believed me when i said that this movie is one of the most thrilling movies i ever watched. i like it more than Uncut Gems (2019)
tv recommendations:
– Dark Winds (2022) season 1 was great. season 2 is off to a greater start. majority of the show is shot outdoor with beautiful landscapes. solid story, real mystery.
– Full Circle (2023) this show was mentioned two weeks ago. limited series from the genius Steven Soderbergh. it was like watching a thriller movie from the 70s, which is my favourite.
