Had a compressed nerve in my back put me into a chair for a few days, but at least I finally go to watch "Star Trek: Picard"

I thought it was good. I look forward to seeing where they go with Season 2.

Hope you're feeling better!

Thanks! I am slowly but surely. I've got 3 bulged discs and every now and then one of them pinches and sends every muscle in my back into spasm for a few days. I started getting steroid injections in my spine to try to get them to shrink but then Covid hit and I haven't been able to get any in the last several months. I'll hopefully start the process again soon.

3 episodes in.

I think it’s good. I like the pacing, it’s got interesting characters and an amazing color palette.

5 episodes in.

Well... the story gets more and more far out and ridiculous (and it was pretty far out to begin with). Still entertaining tho.

Does it feel like you're watching American Horror Story?

I haven’t seen American Horror Story since season 1, so I couldn’t tell you. But there’s no ghosts.

Ratched Season 1 7/10

Final verdict.

Entertaining from beginning to end, but the story just isn’t good enough for a second season.

I HAVE SPOKEN!

You should check out season 2 (Asylum) which is IMO as good as the show ever got, definitely better than season 1...too bad it all kind of goes a bit hit and miss after that...but yeah excellent twilight zone-y kind of feel to the second season, blending elements of horror and sci-fi.


We've been catching up (from the beginning) on this "Handmaids Tail" show.
It's....interesting.

Sure, I’ll give it a try.
