| 🗿 THE EXPANSE How could I start the entertainment list with anything else? Well written, Interesting characters and oh ever so believable. Probably the best SCYFY to grace any screen for a long time (The Books were great). Good Quality production and is stuff like this ever long enough? For some of US .. no Never thought I would say it, but AMAZON have to be thanked for rescuing the series from extinction, as the infamous scyfy network did its usual trick of stopping something at the peak interest of the series (about the 3rd season if I remember). AMAZON Pumped in money to finish it. I can only hope the 2 that wrote this carry on with something else. |

| 🗿 What could I say about Babylon 5 that you don't know already, a great show ahead of its time in many ways (deep space nine'ish) but with a pretty good plot. I keep wishing they would update it - not a remake, but a continuation. |

| 🗿 The old version of battlestar was camp, and I'm sure we soaked it up as Kids. But the new version was a breath of fresh air with a lot of great people in it. Making starbuck a woman was inspired I have to say, and I couldn't have picked a better Commander Adama ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ |

| 🗿 😜 HALO -THE SERIES - Still mixed about it, we got to the HALO RING, but in the strangest way. NOT enough master chief doing master chief things, it seemed to be master chief having a continuous crisis, with KAI125 thinking "chief I hope those drugs are good, and can I have some". But still Ill hang in there and see what happens. (but you can see where the money went = High Quality Production) 😎 LOTR - The series (Rings of Power) - Again you can see the quality of Production, ODD STORY but then again the company and therefore the writers had enormous strictures on what they were allowed to use of TOLKIEN'S material (which from what I understood wasn't a lot), the $250 million rights were just to say - yes, you can make a Tolkien series "we reluctantly let you make it, but the money's good". If it was up to Christopher Tolkien nothing would ever been made including the MOVIES. So I count myself lucky anyway being a huge LOTR fan |

| 🗿 Liking Shogun, They made I think in the 70's but it didn't do as well. Great quality again, with some magnificent Japanese actor(s) from a great book by James Clavell. Ill continue with it and how it progresses |
