What I'm Watching | September 2024

The summer is over & September is filled with amazing TV shows that I’m going to enjoy for next 4 weeks.

My wife & I are enjoying this great HBO series, and lamenting that there’s only 2 seasons. More period dramas with costumes, please.

The first episode of City of God was more of catch-up to the aftermath of the original movie, so I’m waiting for this series to hit its stride sooner than later.

In its 4th season, Only Murders in the Building became a comfort food as the biggest hook is no longer whodunit, but the camaraderie between the cast. Season 3 setting on Broadway was refreshing, so I hope the Hollywood adventure in this season is more than excuses to have many guest stars.

Pachinko Season 2 continues its storyline as if the season 1 wasn’t launched (& lauded) 2 years ago. Sunja/Minha Kim is Pachinko, and Pachinko is Sunja/Minha Kim. She deserves all the praise & the accolades coming to her.

As an editor who worked on K-Pop idol documentaries, I’m watching K-Pop Idols out of professional curiosities. I only know Jessie among the cast, and I can’t help wonder if any other will break out or stand out from this series.
