Same. Though it did seem self contained within the one season. At least there's not a big cliff hanger that will go unresolved.

The Obama Presidential Center Opening Ceremony yesterday.
Stevie Wonder closed with a rousing rendition of "Higher Ground." It's amazing how he has maintained his vocal range over the decades.

After "Mayhem" I have continued on a Samara Weaving kick. "Guns Akimbo" was super fun. Been on my list for a bit. I live that Radcliff has been able to just do whatever tf he wants since Harry Potter. His episode of "Extras" is pure gold. Going to rent and watch a third with her tomorrow night with Lil Miss 460002:
Looks good and worth ten bucks. Will sound the alarm if it sucks but adapted from a Norwegian thing so probably a winner.

Michael Jackson: The Verdict on Netflix. As expected, a very uncomfortable watch.
Also started Half Man on HBO. Only one ep in, but this one is extremely uncomfortable as well.

Oz, the HBO series.
I forgot how much I liked this show the first time around.

Stop motion! I love stop motion!
@30 hours per minute for simple stop motion, it's likely this took well over a month to complete. Im captivated by stop motion; the early really crude stuff- Jason and the Argonauts is still pretty cool.
Thanks for reminding me: I've been meaning to check this out for at least a year.
If you like stop motion animation (heck, even if you don't) I highly recommend Phil Tippet's masterpiece "Mad God".
You'll be familiar with his animation work from the holographic chess in Star Wars, the Tauntauns, and AT-AT Walkers in Empire Strikes Back, Dragon Slayer, ED-209 in Robcop.
He started making Mad God in 1990, but abandoned it in 1991 when he got hired for Jurassic Park and they pivoted from stop motion, to CGI (which he felt meant the death of stop motion animation as an industry).
Mad God lay dormant for a decade, before some of his employees found the models, and the footage languishing in a cupboard they were clearing out, and asked Phil what the hell it was.
They were so fired up about it, that it reignited Phil's enthusiasm for completing it, and over the following 10 years he managed to put it together piecemeal, with the help of his staff, interns, and a Kickstarter campaign.
After 30 years (of appropriately stop-start production, and toil) Mad God was completed, and released theatrically in 2021.
I highly recommend the Blu-ray, which includes a very interesting commentary track with Phil & Guillermo del Tor.
The first episode of the new season of House of the Dragon was pretty good.
"Planes, Trains and Automobiles" was on tap for Father's Day yesterday. Our son really enjoyed it.
Finally caught Project Hail Mary. Glad i waited. Read nothing about it, really cute diversion.
