So much content

The excitement is high... ran out of Netflix with my Vodaphone RED account... it is just too much to pay per month. Gonna avoid it till there is a buildup of shows I wanna watch, then will binge everything in a month. The only thing I miss right now is the IT Crowd. It is irritating to make a new account every time you switch out the payment method. Netflix support directs you to Vodafone, and Vodafone support directs you to Netflix. LAME. 

Rings of Power: This one is funny because everyone is trying to figure who Meteor Man is, and who Sauron is. Seems like Halbrand is Sauron, but that would be disappointing. Meteor Man or the Stranger seems to be Gandalf. The maps shown in the series are impossible to reconcile with Tolkien's maps. The migration paths of the Harfoots is a great example. Still, Durin is awesome, Numenoreans are okay. Galadriel is just cringe. 

House of the Dragon: The books are so depressing, expect the world to be split into Greens and Blacks soon. I am a Black. Really liking Viserys so far. They seemed to have taken some kind of pledge to make every sex scene uncomfortable for the audience. Miss Mushroom and Septon Eustace, even though some people think he was the big headed dwarf banging on the drums during the wedding. Cole is just an absolute ass. 

Andor: Initially felt this was going nowhere, but really like the bureaucracy, the set designs, the spaceships, the droids, and the characters. Four episodes are out, seems like it is on the verge of becoming epic after a few set up episodes. Kind of refreshing to have a Star Wars series sans the lightsabres and the stormtroopers, but it is kind of pointless to enjoy a Star Wars series just for their lack. Still, this series really goes deep into how it would be like living in the Star Wars galaxy. 

She-Hulk: This is a bit boring, going nowhere, expected a law procedural, but they are delving too much into random stuff.
