I got around to watching the finale for Succession last night. Show easily has the best ensemble of any show on the air at the moment imo.

Makes sense. AT&T probably has a good reputation with the anime industry considering that they've owned Crunchyroll since 2014.

Well, I also thought you talked them up a bit as a studio, but that might just be faulty memory.  Never mind then.

Oh no, I definitely talk Studio Ghibli up. I just don't care much about streaming services and I don't plan on using them.

Foot Update:  we got off the ship this morning.  I have been on crutches the last three days because my foot is so swollen I could barely walk.  We are going to dinner in a bit and leaving the crutches in the hotel.  I just have to walk a block.  We will take Lyft or Uber from dinner to our show. And then back to the hotel.  We are here until Sunday.  Hopefully the swelling will go down.  I expected mild swelling with my first steps in 12 weeks but this is swelling as bad as it was right after surgery.  I am not letting this ruin my vacation though.  I really enjoyed the cruise to Bermuda, our new favorite island.  Now we are in New York City.  Swollen painful foot will absolutely not ruin my time here!

I suppose on my score sheet in my signature I would be getting cheap if I didn't assign Doom: Annihilation at least a 91% or greater?  I only gave Halloween (2018) a 90% though....  

watched Cold Pursuit, it was mediocre.
