Looks like I'm Montreal-bound to celebrate mom's 90th!  Out Wednesday morning; back Friday afternoon. Some of my favorite comic book special effects...  

Out and about with mom. Teaching Sharky a new trick... Almost there... Sharky comes to bed... Deep sleep... Sharky and his sharky

Power (2014 - 2020) Season 1 James "Ghost" St. Patrick, a wealthy New York nightclub owner who has it all; dreaming big, catering to the city's elite, and living a double life as a drug kingpin. My thoughts: Not bad, but really leans into the soap elements to its detriment.  It's also littered with logic…

Tabula Rasa (2017) A woman who has lost her memories plays an important role in a disappearance case. To prove her innocence, she must remember everything. My thoughts: Some great turns in this creepy thriller that saves its best twist for last. 4/5 BMF (2021 - ) Season 1 Two brothers who rose from the…

Every once in a while, Akemi will be like: "Growing up, did you ever take a school field trip to a rice paddy field?" or "When your mom used to send you to the tofu shop as a kid, did you always bring your own bowl from home?" And then, whenever I inevitably tell her…

When Sharky went in for this much-needed dental on Thursday, we were expecting him to lose a few of his teeth. We did not expect he'd be losing ALL of them, but that was the initial prognosis.  His mouth was in a bad way.  But, when all was said and done, he only ended up…

Inventing Anna (2022) A journalist with a lot to prove investigates the case of Anna Delvey, the Instagram-legendary German heiress who stole the hearts of New York's social scene - and stole their money as well. My thoughts: This one felt like a light-weight 90's network drama.  Meh. 3/5 Mirzapur (2018 - ) Season 1…

I was just informed on today's zoom that I'll be pitching my action-adventure series in March.  I have mixed feelings.  I've often said that in this business, writers can be good at three things: pitching, generating ideas, and actual writing.  A lot of really great writers I know are much better on the page whereas…

A mid-week Sharky update!  Our boy went in for a much-needed dental this morning to address his few remaining loose and broken teeth.  The vet called with an update, letting us know that they would all have to come out.  Our boy will not only be eyeless, but toothless as well!  Nevertheless, he will apparently…

The pieces are falling into place on several potential productions that could see me shooting in one (maybe more?) of several potential locations... The indie horror movie could take me to Bulgaria The action-adventure series could take me to Greece The mystery island series could take me to Portugal The con man series with Alex…

Braqueurs/Ganglands (2021 - ) Season 1 Mehdi, a qualified robber, and Liana, an apprentice thief, get involved in a turf war between drug dealers, and have to collaborate in order to save their loved ones. My thoughts: Was really hoping to like this one a lot given the premise but was let down by the…
