I got through the first episode and a half and stopped watching due to soooo many needless changes to the original source material.
If you have not read the book then you'll probably like it because the production value is really good.
I just couldn't figure out why they would make so many changes to such a beautiful story.

I’m three quarters through the series and enjoying it, but only a 3rd into the book. I’m struggling with the short chapters that jump back and forth in time and I’ve always disliked books written in present tense. No doubt it’s worth sticking with and there’s a story worth telling, it’s just the way it’s been written that’s not to my personal taste.

Im watching the Whitney Houston movie on Netflix. Her voice is the greatest I’ve ever heard. Too bad she had her demons, like we all do.

I've been watching Only Murders In the Building. It's great. I really like it. It's on Hulu and stars Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez.

I don't know what it is about that young lady Selena Gomez, I have literally zero attraction to her but I absolutely adore her as an actress. It's the weirdest thing. She is so great to watch but does nothing for me in that way.

Anyway, it's a really fun show. The best character by a country mile is Bunny. Trust me, especially in season 2, she's great. I don't know the name of the lady that plays her, but she's friggin hysterical.

The wife and I started watching Resident Alien on Netflix, holy shit is it good. It is so effing funny. Alan Tudyk is a national treasure. This show is also excellent at something that I find to be very rare, it writes great female characters. There's a little femi-nazi every now and then but for the most part all the female characters are awesome. It is fantastic and I highly recommend it.
