I rather enjoyed the sound-track personally as I regarded this series as a historical romp but with quite a high standard of accuracy.

I like the music (Sabbath, Priest, Saxon). But hearing it takes me out of the time period the story is set in. 4 episodes in now, it definitely picks up and gets better.

Update:
Finished the series. I enjoyed it. I hope there is another season.

There is, scheduled for release in 2024, in production from next year. Maybe further series dealing with the later war years.

I HAVE to watch that!


If you watch Jaws backwards, it's a heart warming story about a shark that spits out so many people that they have to open a beach.

It would be a shame if that was Ray Liotta's last movie.
A lot of familiar faces. I'll probably watch it if it comes to streaming.

To be more precise, the original Winnie the Pooh book/novel became public domain so now anyone (including Disney) can make a film adaptation on it without having to pay any royalties or fees to a third party.

I haven't watch 1st episode but I think the African American lady in the preview is the CIA director that reports to the President.

Watching episode 1. She is the Chief of Station in Rome.

Do Station Chiefs meet regularly with the President in the Oval Office?

No, they're generally at whatever station they're assigned to.

Thank you wormfood.

Then the series makers are writing it to make her look more important than she is.

I was at my brother in law's place for Christmas Eve and his family was watching "Home Alone". A few things struck me about this movie which I hadn't seen in probably about 20 years:

1. Macaulay Culkin was 10 years old when this movie came out and so was my wife!

2. The dad had to have been pulling down a six figure salary considering the size of that house plus the fact that it was in an upscale Chicago suburb. Oh, and he had 5 kids too.....

3. I first saw this movie in the theatre while on a date with a girl who I had been pursuing for a long time in high school. biggrin
