What I'm Watching | August 2024

I rarely get goosebumps from watching a trailer, but Pachinko season 2 trailer is simply marvelous. It just breaks my brain that this TV series exist (& I would’ve done anything to be a part of the post team to work on it, but alas)

Omnivore looks amazing, combining great cuisines with international flavors.

This flew under my radar, but Those About to Die has been the latest guilty pleasure on the big TV in my household. We may move on to Rome (on HBO) next month after we’ve finished its 10 episodes.

The season 1 of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power was interesting enough to get me excited for season 2. Let’s hope that this is the season where it finally delivers on its expansive (& expensive) promises.

City of God is one of my favorite movies, and I’m pleasantly surprised that it’s made into a TV series. I’ll get to relive the time I spent in Brazil before the Olympic in Rio (even if it was the safest time for tourists, so I’m told)
