The Book of Boba Fett (2021–2022)

Haters and ageists begone...

[10/10 · 28 January 2022]

The story is interesting. There seem to be many angry 'age-related' reviews. Maybe some have forgotten Obi in the original movies was not a young man...hell Yoda was ancient🤣 I am enjoying the past life flashbacks/dreams and the contrast of calm and violence. One review cited, no fight scenes. Did they watch the series?

Another said, he's too old and always needs help in fight scenes. Erm yes, in the first four episodes he is still in his healing tank recovering from the side effects of being part digested by the Sarlacc.

This is a great fantasy series and I'm enjoying seeing the other side and lives of tribes, creatures and monsters from tattooine. It's great that we get to see an even bigger slice of life from Anakin's home planet.

As an original Star Wars fan, I am very happy that Disney has taken hold of the franchise is continuing the storytelling. Thank you Disney for taking a different direction, after all, where would we be without your investment?

Jericho (2016)

Really enjoyable series - don't be put off by the 'western' theme ladies:)

I was not sure I was going to enjoy this, but I have almost binge watched it!

It has a frontier town theme, with the best bits of romance and angst from the period dramas 'North and South' and 'Pride and Prejudice.'

I enjoyed the premise and story line and relating this drama to the history of real life towns set up around such 19th century projects. Life was brutal and this series reflects that well.

Give this one a chance and see how the story, characters and great acting draw you in.

Thoroughly recommend:)
