Cassandra Wilson, Star Jazz Singer, Dies at 70 - The New York Times "New Moon Daughter" has been a favorite of mine forever: No cause listed yet. Although the article says "peacefully, surrounded by family". RIP.

Just finished season 1 of Furious (Hulu) - very intense:

Colin From Accounts: An Aussie-based comedy centered around two people who are brought together by a car accident & an injured dog who they agree to care for. Occasionally annoying, but overall funny, and an easy watch. Good palate-cleanse in between other more intense shows.
-
Sprung (Prime) - another fun comedy series. One season, easy watch.
-
The Outlaws (Prime) - fun watch. We're through the first two seasons, looking forward the third.

Condolences Todd.

Do I need to finish "For All Mankind" before watching this? I sorta lost interest in "FAM", despite the subject matter & era being generally up my alley.

^probably about the same for Wimbledon too.🎾

^have all season 5 episodes dropped?
-
Legends (2026) - 1990's British customs agents enlisted for Thatcher's war on drugs. Quite good & engaging.
-
Spider Noir (Amazon Prime) - enjoyed this alternate take on the Spiderman genre alot.

The Continental (Peacock) - all John Wick fans must see (a prequel): Not to be confused with:

Grell OAE1 headphone on Woot for $39.99 Cheap enough for modding & experimentation, no?
-
Peaky Blinders (Netflix) - I know I am so late (like, ten years late!) to this party, but here we are finally. Binged thru the first two seasons, & started series #3. Not perfect, but lots of "fun" (usually in a dark-ish way). Dang, life was harsh not so long ago.

Thelma Houston & Pressure Cooker - I've Got the Music in Me (Sheffield Labs recording on CD) - Picked up at a local Goodwill on a whim based on the label. I was not familiar with the Sheffield Lab era but was intrigued by the cover, so I grabbed it. Have I found my newest obsession?

Broadchurch (Seasons 2 & 3) - Back in 2013, we watched season 1. While excellent, it was very intense, centering on the death of an 11 y/o boy in a tight-knit English coastal town. So much so, that when series 2 aired, we opted to not continue watching. In the last weeks, we circled back to binge thru season 2 & 3 in succession. These were just as intense as the first and reminded me how much I love Olivia Coleman's work. Definitely not for the faint-of-heart, or a casual watch. But these were the blueprint for many similarly-themed series over the last decade.
