In an attempt to mix things up a bit, I’m including news about movies and TV shows, as well as books in what has now become my monthly update. :)
Here comes spring TV, even if you’re not caught up on fall TV.
I’m glad to see Perry Mason come back for a second season. And, yes, my eyes did roll a bit when I heard about the first season of this reboot. Plus, I couldn’t believe what a slimy asshole Mason was in his origin story. Fortunately, that didn’t last long.
Despite some of the ridiculous parts (even for Perry Mason), I enjoyed Matthew Rhys’ performance as the TV’s greatest defense lawyer. I also thought the first season was good on the whole. I hope the second season maintains some believability is equally engaging.
Season Two of Perry Mason starts March 6.
I keep hearing about Yellowjackets, but I’m not crazy about the idea of watching a show about cannibals.
But Season Two of that one starts March 24.
At some point, I’ll simply have to check out Succession.
Season Four starts of HBO on March 26.
Mrs. Davis on Peacock sounds interesting.
That one starts April 20.
Other than White House Plumbers on HBO, starting date to be determined, I’m interested in seeing Justified: City Primeval, which starts on FX in early summer.
