I have to rep this one! I don't even know how to describe it, but if you like weird and heartwarming, you should give it a try.
It's billed as a comedy, but it's more of a dramedy.

I’m enjoying Franklin on Apple+. Michael Douglas is the right age to play the part and is effectively roguish. Plus amazing costumes and scenes at Versailles!

I started watching Dead Boy Detectives on Netflix. It's very, very weird. I kind of feel like the writers were on drugs when they wrote it or were huge fans of Alice in Wonderland.

Spoiler

One of the dead boy detectives trapped a talking cat to get information for a case and is now in trouble with the gay cat king. Dead boy detective died in the 40's/50's/??? and doesn't realize he's gay so the cat king gave up on sex and has trapped him in town until he counts all the cats.

Also a girl was possessed by dandelion sprites that make you light up in neon so people stare at you. The sprites need attention. Eventually the host explodes rainbow goo everywhere and dies.

I don't hate it, don't love it and am kind of wondering what whacked out weird crap they are going to come up with next.

I read a write-up about Tubi and it’s hundreds of thousands of titles. (Can that be true?) I hit explore, closed my eyes, landed on adult animation and selected a 15 yr old film called “Metropia.” It was set in a dystopian future (2024 ) and the world is a dreary place. Society has failed on multiple levels. A man stumbles on to a mystery and tries to keep the world from getting worse. The animation was unusual and worth watching.

Netflix dropped the first trailer for their Senna series today, most likely because it is the 30th anniversary of that terrible weekend in Imola:

No release date yet.

Cast list is also up: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13024830/

Nobody really looks right, and Johannes Heinrichs is going to suffer the most from being compared to Daniel Bruhl's Niki Lauda. Martin Brundle and Sir Frank Williams look like they got the biggest Historical Beauty Upgrade though, which is kind of hilarious. Notable exclusions from the cast list include Gerhard Berger, Michael Schumacher and Adrienne, his last girlfriend, which has me a little concerned, but the list isn't fully updated.

Honestly I'm still reserving judgement. The risk is that this will be yet another casting of Senna as a flawless deity, and Prost as the evil villain, and then Schumacher as the scheming cheat.

Has anyone else been watching American Idol this season?

I just have to get this off my chest: I think Emmy Russell's performance of "Coal Miner's Daughter" this week was really off key. And her piano playing wasn't that great either. I know Idol wanted to create this big moment for her, singing her grandmother's song, but to me, it kind of fell flat. Anyone else? Or am I just being too critical?
