New series on Amazon Prime named "House of David".

While it takes "some" liberties it the name of entertainment it does stay true to the Old Testament.

I really like it.

I just came across a show tonight called Common Side Effects. It's an animated show that's streaming on Adult Swim from Cartoon Network. I haven't had Cartoon Network for a few years and never heard of it, but it was on Xfinity and I saw the first 5 episodes. It's rated 8.7/10 on IMDb, a lot higher than the average TV show. Follows former high school lab mates Marshall and Frances as they unravel a conspiracy involving big pharma and the government to suppress knowledge of a rare fungus secret that may contain the solution to cure all world's diseases. Who doesn't like a good conspiracy theory? ;)

BTW, House of David is rated 7.0/10, so it must be pretty good, but I don't think I'll be able to fit it into my schedule. Especially since I found several new shows I'm interested in at Tubi. The once-mighty King Saul falls victim to his own pride, as an outcast shepherd boy, David is anointed as the second king.

If you’re a fan of Miley Bobby Brown (11 in stranger things and Enola Holmes) you might enjoy seeing her in The Electric State.  The script itself isn’t very great and they wasted $300million, yep million making it, but she, Chris Pratt and C Esposito where fun to watch.

The Adventure of Jim Bowie on Prime.  Two seasons starting in 1957.  Back when they 25-40 episodes a season and not the 8 or 10 you get now.

I want to see The Electric State but so far it looks like it's only on Netflix. Maybe in a couple of months, or years, it will be somewhere I can watch it. I like Giancarlo Esposito. I haven't seen anything he was in I didn't like, even if I only got to see 1 episode of a show. I most recently saw him in the TV show The Boys and the movie Abigail. There are a lot of other good actors in the move too. I always wonder what Alan Tudyk's characters will sound like when he voices a new one. He plays Dr. Pentos and Mr. Flesh in Grimsburg. I think his normal voice is close to Mr. Flesh, but I'm not sure he even knows what his voice naturally sounds like. He played Wash on Firefly.

I saw all 8 episodes of The Bondsman on Prime Video.

Murdered bounty hunter Hub Halloran is resurrected by the Devil to trap and send back demons that have escaped from the prison of Hell. By chasing down those demons with the help and hindrance of his estranged family, Hub learns how his own sins got his soul condemned - which pushes him to seek a second chance at life, love, and country music.

Resurrected bounty hunter, Hub Halloran, gets an unexpected second chance at life, love and his nearly forgotten musical career--only to find that his old job now has a demonic new twist.

It stars Kevin Bacon and is rated 7.1/10 on IMDb. Anytime the star of the show gets killed right at the beginning, you know you're in for something different.  https://www.imdb.com/title/tt28256288/

The Substance. A fading celebrity takes a black-market drug: a cell-replicating substance that creates a younger, better version of herself. 7.3/10 om IMDb. If you like horror movies, especially the sub-genre body-horror, check it out. It a horror movie that just when you think it can't get any worse, gets even more horrible. It's the most blood-drenched movie I've ever seen.

Right now - Life of Fire on the outdoor channel.

They did one season last spring, and they are rerunning it this spring. I hope they do another season. Actually, I hope they don't, because I no longer have the space to do a pit barbeque.

Several of the episodes have me dreaming of having a group of guys over for a day of shooting and cooking, then as evening comes all the families come and we enjoy basic slow cooked meats and sides.

I just finished the last episode of Patriot on Amazon, rated 8.2/10 on IMDb. Follows the complicated life of intelligence officer John Tavner, whose latest assignment--to prevent Iran from going nuclear--requires him to forgo all safety nets and assume a perilous, non-official cover. An official cover operative is one who assumes a position in an organization with diplomatic ties to the government for which the operative works such as an embassy or consulate. This provides the agent with official diplomatic immunity. Operatives under non-official cover (NOC) are operatives without official ties to the government for which they work who assume covert roles in organizations. They don't have the safety net of diplomatic immunity, and if captured and charged as spies are subject to severe criminal punishments, up to and including execution. To prevent Iran from going nuclear, intelligence officer John Tavner must forgo all safety nets and assume a perilous non-official cover ("NOC") of a mid-level employee at a Milwaukee industrial piping firm. You won't believe what he does to get the job. He has a hard time learning the industrial piping industry lingo, like the 2 phrases in the picture of captions below. :D If you see watch a couple of the previews you'll probably be interested in the series.

If you like Hurt Locker then BBC on Brit Box is a show called Trigger Point.  Unban  bomb squad in London.  Evidentially they call them EXPO, Explosive Officers.
