Finished "Defending Jacob" on Apple last week.

Back from 2020  --- I was unaware of it's existence, but the wife came across it.

Pretty good.  It definitely leaves you with some questions, and WTF's.

I hadn't heard of this until just the other day....I mentioned we were watching Presumed Innocent, and Defending Jacob is one of the things it popped up under "you might also enjoy."  I think AppleTV will be canceled tomorrow, but next time we cut it on I'll have to remember this.  

fwiw, you might enjoy Presumed Innocent, apparently.  The algorithm sez so.

I think it is on our "Things to watch" list.  HAHA

Finished Presumed Innocent last night.  A decent watch.

A little too much porn for my tastes, but it had one hell of a twist at then end.

Yeah, that got annoying.  It's like, we get it, you're obsessed with her and can't stop thinking about all the cheating you were doing.  Move on to the plot, plz.

Mrs. DeLonghorn wanted to watch Tombstone Friday night because she hadn't seen it since it came out.  I've seen it a few times since then, though it's been years since the last time. 

It doesn't hold up to its lofty place in my memory, but plenty of Doc Holliday's lines are still superb.  Albeit with the weirdest, fake southern accent ever.  

I forgot how many famous people were in that movie.

As quotable a movie as there ever was.  I think I have the entirety of the dialogue memorized.

Of course, I've seen it probably 50 times.

Hulu had the first season of Andor this month for some reason, maybe a marketing thing by Disney+ to try to promote their service.  It expired today but I was just able to catch the final episode last night in time. 

Pretty good, especially for the crap that Disney-StarWars has pumped out.  Not amazing, but pretty good.  I'd recommend it, if you like the Star Wars universe. 

I think a new season came out on D+ last night, but we won't be subscribing for that.

Yeah Hulu is owned by Disney/Fox, so they'll show Disney and Fox content pretty regularly.

I watched the first couple of episodes of Andor on Disney+ when it came out but for some reason stopped.  I liked it fine, but got sidetracked.  Maybe I'll start over now that there's a second season.

I believe it's Disney/ABC. I don't think Fox is involved in Hulu. 

Hence with Hulu Live TV they automatically bundle in Disney+ and ESPN+, because those are all (along with ABC) the same entity.

Disney bought Fox Entertainment in 2019.  The deal included 20th Century Fox studio, and the FX networks, but not Fox's news and sports assets.  So this is why you see a lot of Fox studio content on Hulu.

Huh. Good to know. I hadn't realized that they spun out that portion of Fox separate from the Murdoch mother ship.
