What are you binge watching?

Little League World Series.

Complete opposite for me. It's no longer rag tag groups of kids from a local area. These are well-funded year round travel teams. And you can tell these teams look and play different from 10 years ago. And let me throw in the gratuitous shot at ESPN for over commercializing it since they have so little programming the first half of August.

And my personal root cause analysis blames Taiwan Taipei which ran over everyone for a decade using a team of All-star All-stars.

Trumbull little league world series champs in '89 who beat Taiwan was all-stars from the town of Trumbull's little league. Fairfield has two little leagues. Fairfield national is all-stars from half of the town of Fairfield with kids living within those school districts. There is also a Fairfield American consisting of kids from the other districts in the town.

I just started Slow Horses. It seems good.

It is. One of the better series of the last couple years. Oldman is good enough to make you think he hasn't showered since Covid.

Slow Horses is great, Oldman is perfect for the role.

Started watching Mr Robot (Netflix). Seems to have potential. Rami Malek is an interesting watch, that's for sure, but pretty dark characters thus far. Anyone watch it?
