I just watched the 8 shows of the 2022 season of Barry, creAted by Bill Hader, SNL alum. Really funny, very twisted take on a Violent man (Hader) trying to change but unable to do so, and finding encouragement and support from film industry despite his psychopathic bent. Excellent acting, including a gay Chechen gangster played by Anthony Carrigan (brings new meaning and enthusiasm to the phrase 50–50).

Having finished the Obi Wan show, I'm left feeling nothing, I guess? I used to be such a bigger Star Wars fan than I am now, even through the prequel years.
I think The Rise of Skywalker left me so cold, and these Disney+ shows have ranged from pretty good (Mandalorian), to awful (Boba Fett), to ok (Obi Wan), and it has just sapped most of the SW fandom out of me.
I think the only thing I'd be interested in now is seeing something that moves beyond this time period. Move forward with new characters, new storylines. They've milked this enough.

Go Gators!
I just started Westworld last night, and made it through the first 3 episodes of the first season. So far, I'm really enjoying it. Outstanding cast!
My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!
