October 5, 2023: The Crime Binge continues!
Mr. Inbetween (2018-2021) Season 3 Ray Shoesmith is a father, ex-husband, boyfriend, brother and best friend, tough roles to juggle in the modern age. Especially when you’re also a criminal for hire. My thoughts: Didn't find it as strong as season 2, but loved it all the same. A great send-off. 4/5 Happy Valley (2014-2023)…
October 3, 2023: Sharky!
October 2, 2023: Better late than never when it comes to blog entries!
31 shows into my Crime Binge and I really loved three: River, Mr. Inbetween, and Love/Hate (just finished season 2 and really looking forward to season 3!). I liked 7 other shows (enough to continue watching). So I enjoyed a third of everyone's recommendations. So far. Still making the final adjustments to our NYC and…
October 1, 2023: Doggy videos!
One of our earliest videos of Suji, shortly after we adopted her... Lulu snoozing... Check out those bouncy ears... Jelly eating peanut butter... Bubba eating peanut butter... Handsome Maximus...
September 30, 2023: News of Note!
Saturday, October 14th - 12PM PST/3PM EST... I'll be fielding questions on Jeff Howard's (Oculus, Ouija: Origin of Evil, Gerald's Game, The Haunting of Hill House, Midnight Mass) youtube channel. Come armed with your Dark Matter/Stargate/Screenwriting/Sci-Fi/Food/Pugs-related questions! https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1708256348440240513 26 crime shows under my belt. Loved 2.

September 29, 2023: This and That!
I'm thinking about doing a twitter (X) Spaces next Saturday (afternoon?) where I'll field question about Stargate, Dark Matter, screenwriting, and pugs. Have never used it before, have no idea how it works - so that should make it all the more fun. Will keep you updated! https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1707491382544199874 https://twitter.com/BaronDestructo/status/1706328883841184114 We've locked down NYC, more or…
September 28, 2023: The Crime Binge continues!
Dear Child (2023) A mysterious woman's escape from her harrowing captivity points investigators toward the dark truth behind an unsolved disappearance 13 years earlier. My thoughts: Sets up an intriguing premise but fails in its execution. This one demands too much of a suspension of disbelief for this viewer. 2.5/5 Lupin (2021 - ) Season…
The Dreaded Script Notes!
In a notes session, “starting with the positives” is the animal wrangling equivalent of approaching slowly and speaking in a calm, soothing voice. It’s designed to relax the intended victim, lull them into a false sense of security. Then, the second they let their guard down, they’re ensnared, bagged, and shipped off to some zoo…
September 25, 2023: Moving Forward!
Again, thanks to everyone who left a message about Suji. For a little girl, she had such a big, demanding personality that every facet of my daily routine was impacted by her presence - and now by her absence. Another dog will never replace Suji but seeing all those seniors and special needs pugs languishing…

September 22, 2023: Getting Away!
The place has bee all too quiet the past few days. I actually choked up eating roast chicken. We need to get away for a while. So we've booked our first Japan trip in five years for December and are looking to do a little more vacationing. I put out a twitter poll yesterday -…
September 20, 2023: Suji
Many question the wisdom of adopting a senior dog given the limited time you have with them. In Suji's case, we were blessed to have her for almost seven years. She came to us via the Pacific Pug Rescue when she was almost twelve, wheelchair-bound, cantankerous and, surprisingly, not very affectionate for a pug. She…
September 19, 2023: The Crime Binge continues!
The Tower (2021-2023) - First season After a long-serving cop and a teenage girl fall to their deaths from a London tower block, Detective Sarah Collins investigates the dark heart of policing. My thoughts: Logic goes out the window in service to a social justice message. Pass. 2/5 Love/hate (2010-2014) - First season The story…
