TODAY I WATCHED (Movies, TV series) 2015

That Metal Show
Rock Icons

Summer Rental (1985) a fun little picture starring the late great John Candy. I always liked this movie.

Cards home opener vs Brewers.

Inauspicious start with an unearned run in the first and two plays that could have been made in the 2nd leading to another run.

I finished up the series in 4 days, it's excellent throughout.

Brewers vs Cardinals

Brewers at Cardinals day game.

Cards won 4-0. Through 7 games the team ERA is now 2.86. I just wish our offense was better.

Caught the first two episodes as well..... I am sure I will finish up the series shortly.

Cardinals vs. Reds (and Johnny "kick like a girl" Cueto). No, we don't forget around here.

on episode 4. It is pretty dark.

Daredevil feels like a gritty, realistic procedural, like The Wire or a similar HBO style series. It is miles different in tone than the broadcast TV series like Agents of Shield or Arrow. I found it to be very refreshing, as did having more focus on character development than you usually get in the films or series. The backstory of the villain is just as richly realized as the hero and the side characters are also three dimensional. It is more violent than usual for a Marvel series, but it's befitting the tone of the overall show. I don't think it's as over-the-top melodramatically as many of these kinds of shows get, nor is it as self-consciously brooding. It feels more grounded in reality.

Pirates vs Brewers

More episodes of Daredevil

Reds vs Cardinals

Cards won their fourth in a row.  Great starting pitching again. So far the starters have gone at least 6 innings in all but 1 game and that was a 5 inning win for Lance Lynn.

UFC on FOX

Currently the Pirates beating the Brewers 6-1

Now to finish watching the Penguins - Rangers game
