Went to this today. Very well done. The premiere on PBS is April 2nd.

Lanesboro, Minnesota on John Mcgivern's Main Streets.

They really captured the essence of this small tourist town.

So 6th episode showed I was right from the 1st episode, but the reveal in the last few minutes of the 5th episode had me doubting myself. Well done.

Did not like the main characters. They both irritated me. Actors were fantastic though because I believed they *were* those people, despite having seen both of them in many other things.

Veronica Mars is back on Netflix. Despite it being the very first show I ever binge watched, it doesn't show that I watched any of the episodes.

Came to watch the show because I'd liked the theme song before it was a theme song.

Pretty good acting kept me watching more than anything else.

Finally realized my blood pressure at doctor's appointment was a bit high because I'd just watched 15 minutes of "The Pitt" on HBO before I had to go and I'd just spent a month with a family member in the hospital and rehab. Well done, but it's going to be a while before I can watch it, I think.

Really liked this article and helps explains why my wife, who never played D&D in the 1980s like me, enjoyed it the whole way through as much as me.

Also really like this bit about peer groups in adolescents, but I think applies lifelong:

My wife watched "The Righteous Gemstones" on HBO regularly. I'd watch it with her sometimes because it had a really good cast.

She was watching a documentary about the criminal grifter Joel Osteen and family and I had no idea how much was a satire of those assholes who get so much wrong about Christianity and religion in general.
