If you're into Star Trek, then Star Trek: Picard is on Paramount+.  I watched season1 on a free trial last year and season2 is supposed to come out in March.

I thought it was great but I'm a pretty big Star Trek nerd so there you have it.  If you're unfamiliar with Captain Picard from Star Trek: The Next Generation then it wouldn't make much sense.
I watched some of it, for some reason never got really into it.  I forget the plot now, I think they wanted money to watch more of it and I passed.

I find it funny that the book character was supposed to be an imposing goliath, and the first actor to play Jack Reacher was... Tom Cruise. Practically a hobbit.

But I wouldn't call this dude "very large"... He's only 6'2". That's barely at the range where I'll describe someone as "yeah, I guess he's tall"...
😂😂. I struggle with Tom Cruise in the hero role - I have seen him in person and he is tiny. 
I realize that’s an unfair bias - but the camera work they have to do to try to hide it is so obvious.

I watched the first three seasons of Yellowstone on Peacock. But the fourth season isn't on Peacock. I thought I had to sign up with Paramount Plus to watch it. So I did. But no, it's not on Paramount Plus, it's on Paramount Network. Which I already had (unknown to me) through Hulu. But now I have Paramount Plus for a month. Anything good on there?
Same.   Yellowstone is very entertaining- albeit a stretch from reality- I enjoyed it.  The last season of 8 episodes could have easily been 2-3 episodes- but they just LOADED it with commercials, being the number 1 watched show on all media ( from what read anyway)

Ozark put out 7 more episodes ( a season I guess).  Again, very entertaining but you can’t compare it to any reality.

The FNG is "only" 6'2" but he is rather built.

Dude, do you even lift?

On the other hand, I dig Tom Cruise as an action guy.  I think he does a great job.

I've never seen any Reacher stuff and if that dude is supposed to be 6'5" then yeah I'd have a hard time buying Cruise in that particular role, but in general I enjoy most of his movies.

Yeah- pretty good actor. I just struggle with him beating up 8 guys at once in Reacher.

I watched part of Ozark being filmed from our condo, and when strolling about town.

My wife has taken to watching Matlock which takes place in Atlanta but was filmed in California back in the day.  Any time they are outside it's clearly CA and not GA.

We've been watching Perry Mason which I find surprisingly good, a bit complex at times.  I like seeing the 1958 cars too.

I guess I must have signed up for this before because I did watch Picard. I grew up on The Next Generation so I was all in for Picard, though I was a bit disappointed in it. Though I only about half pay attention to shows anymore so I probably missed something important.

An interesting thing about watching them film is how many folks are standing around, and how long they can take to film what ends up being 5 seconds on the show.  I imagine it's exhausting for the actors, and everyone else who does much.  The infrastructure needed for filming is also amazing, to me, they'll have 5-6 tractor trailers, tents all over, heavy cables running about, and maybe 100 people for each scene doing "something".

I've been an extra in a couple of movies filmed around Austin over the years.  I agree with you on just how much STUFF and how many PEOPLE it appears to require.

Yeah Boba Fett is pretty good.  I've always hated Fett and never understood why so many Star Wars nerds seemed to idolize him.  But they've actually made me appreciate his character.  Well done, Disney!
