We've really been enjoying this....

Apple TV +

Sugar revolves around John Sugar (Colin Farrell) a private investigator hired by Hollywood titan Jonathan Siegel (James Cromwell) to investigate the mysterious disappearance of his granddaughter, Olivia (Sydney Chandler).

I don't have Apple TV but I will say those are some good actors.

I do have Apple TV (a must-have to watch Ted Lasso!!). We're always looking for new releases. Thanks for the tip.

Started this last night. Love its style and its homage to old Hollywood. (it's amazing how much Colin Farrell looks like Glenn Ford). And Farrell gives the best vocal delivery of a narration since Martin Sheen in Apocalypse Now.

We have our streaming staples, but then we'll get a mos or two of something else just to catch a series or movie etc...the key is to remember to shut it off at end of the free trial.

We just did that with Hulu.

Watched the first ep of Sugar last night. It's ok. I'll give it a long leash because like others have said there's not much on right now in the way of shows. But it didn't hook me really.

I'm liking Shogun (Hulu) as I slowly work through it.

Man in Full looked pretty terrible so if it's good please let us know, Sticky, and I'll give it a shot.

God bless Top Chef, Survivor, and the 4th quarters of NBA playoff games or there really would be nothing to watch right now!

We really liked Shogun...Wish it was a couple episodes longer than it was. 

Sugar picked-up for us over the episodes. We just finished Ep 6 of the 8 last week.
