After 12 seasons on "Bones" I would have thought that Emily Deschanel deserved better than "Zooey's sister"
All my wife said was that she looks weird as a blonde.After 12 seasons on "Bones" I would have thought that Emily Deschanel deserved better than "Zooey's sister"

Never watched “Bones”. Didn’t even know Zooey had a sister.

I love Bosch and his old school ways and attitude.
There's a new one with his daughter as well (Bosch Legacy I think), books are good too.
Agreed. Watched the first episode last night and had to fight the urge to bail for the first 30min and as it came to a close I was already looking forward to ep2.And the show is excellent so far at least.
It seems it will focus on Galadriel, Elrond and Gandalf(?) as the main characters. And maybe Durin.
I'm still on the fence about it and have to keep reminding myself that they don't have the rights to the book that actually covers this timeframe of Middle Earth history. I will keep watching, however.
Are you referring to The Silmarillion, Rob?
For the most part, but there are a lot of other published sources too.

Did Jeff Besos buy up the unpublished notes from Token..
I'll watch when I can binge the whole season. I have no attachement to LoTR to allow it to interfere with my enjoyment, unlike some people who are review bombing the series.
As far as I know Amazon only has access to Lord of the Rings and the appendices from that book, which does give them some of the story from The Silmarillion. Nothing else. That's why some people are freaking out over it. Others are just the usual "it's too woke" idiots, who likely haven't even watched the thing.
"The Imperfects" on Netflix - Kind of "The New Mutants" on a budget. Child research subjects, when they hit adulthood, start developing "side effects." Three episodes in and I'm enjoying it.

Ha! I was talking with someone about this, and he showed me in the prelude in the first book of LoTR, where it describes hobbits as having brown skin...

Finished up
S3 was great, some of the later episodes went deep with character stories, backed with good writing.
Also Bortus and the Moclans have to be some of the most original, funny, and totally awkward characters since The Office, who are amazing.

"Motherland: Fort Salem" - Three seasons now, on Disney+. It takes place in a modern but re-imagined United States. the premise is that during the Salem Witch Trials rather than being burnt at the stake, Sarah Alder and the other witches of Salem made a pact to defend The Colonies, and later the United States, as their "army." the country is split down the middle by an area called "The Cession", along what appears to be the course of the Mississippi River, and is controlled by seven Indigenous Bands who formed a council. it's pretty much YA fare, but I've enjoyed it. They've done some pretty deep world building. Just finished watching S3E6.
*EDIT* - I should also mention that one of the stars of the show is Taylor Hickson. Some of you may remember that this Canadian actress received a horrible facial injury during the filming of an indie horror project called "Ghostland", in Winnipeg, when a plate glass window shattered. The director kept shouting at her to hit it harder and eventually the window couldn't take any more.
