#3GoodThings

1. A neighbor put up a sign encouraging people to pick plums from his tree. I brought home a handful and they have just ripened. Sweet, free street plums!

2. Splash of color from my spouse filling our big pot out front with impatiens.

3. An abundance of episodes to catch up on, and an open weekend to do so! (#SpaceJanitors, #Discovery, #1899Netflix).

Bin im Online-Buchladen meines Vertrauens eben über Band 1296 von #ProfessorZamorra gestolpert. Ich lese das nicht, ist nicht mein Genre. Es wurde mir auf der Startseite präsentiert.

Aber das Titelbild. Wow! 😳 #1899Netflix

You have canceled #1899Netflix. There will be no forgiveness for that.
I'm still bummed about #1899Netflix getting cancelled .. Maybe the lesson there is to not spend the entire first season on setup for later seasons
Inmiddels aangekomen bij aflevering 5 van #1899Netflix en ik word steeds nieuwsgieriger wat dat freaky jochie van plan is.

As a non-spoilery opinion on 1899 as a whole:

I liked it rather a lot, but feel frustrated that we're probably not going to get the rest of the story due to it being cancelled by Netflix.

I'd still recommend it, tho – with the caveat that you have to enjoy being dropped into the middle of a story and left to figure it out on your own.

I did get some of the calls right – I quite quickly hooked into the "not real" thing, and I did wonder about spaceships but then went off into wondering if it was fantasy-horror. Still could be I guess, coz I'm not convinced that 2099 is any more real than 1899! 😉

But I do still feel a bit at sea, and one thing is why the memories. The series did do a good job of getting me to care what happened to people I didn't think were real.

#tv tonight: ep 8 of 1899 ( https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/80214497 )

(We watched ep 7 last week, I just didn't write about it).

It's a real shame this has been cancelled, because it clearly is only part 1 of a larger narrative. So even tho there's the resolution of Maura waking up into a different reality and that loop being broken, there's now the larger question of what is going on in this new story.

Watch 1899 | Netflix Official Site

When mysterious events change the course of an immigrant ship headed for New York in 1899, a mind-bending riddle unfolds for its bewildered passengers.

Still annoyed about 1899 being cancelled.

I should check out the graphic novel it allegedly ripped off

Tho to be perfectly honest about the only thing I'm 100% sure of is that I've not gotten any of it figured out yet!

Lots of trauma in the past for everyone (in "universe" but not necessarily out where the old dude & the pyramid are).

And isn't it interesting that Maura thinks her mother lost her grip on reality and forgot people/things, and yet here she is not remembering someone who thinks she should.
