Review of 'For All Mankind' 3.3-3.4
Catching up with a double review of For All Mankind on Apple TV+ -- episodes 3.3 and 3.4 -- which started as a pretty good espionage story in and of itself, and catapulted into one of the most exciting out in space episodes of the series. Before I warn you about spoilers, I've gotta say that the verisimilitude of this series -- fancy word that philosophers use for realism -- makes you, or at least me, feel like I'm really out there way off this planet.

Review of 'Westworld' 4.1
Westworld was back on HBO Sunday night with the start of its fourth season, and I liked it. It had a leaner feel and storyline than the previous season, which worked well with the meanness at large in every season. Plus, it had a wallop of a surprise at the end.

Review of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 1.8
I have mixed feelings about Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 1.8, which I saw late last night on Paramount Plus TV. That's because I thought most of it was ridiculous, easily the worst episode of the season, until close to the ending, which I thought was heartwarming and uplifting.
