One of the “good” things about being OLD is that I barely remember anything anymore. How is this good you ask? Well a few months ago I watched Our Flag Means Death and totally loved it. Funny, silly, charming… and a brooding Taika Waititi (as Blackbeard) in head to toe leather. And so after being disappointed and/or annoyed after watching a couple of the latest streaming Trending Hits I decided to try OFMD again. And while there were certainly bits of it that I remembered there was also plenty I had forgotten, so it was almost like watching it anew. If you haven’t seen it I can’t recommend it enough. Absolute joy. Great soundtrack too.

So… uh oh!… last night I signed up for a month free trial thingy with HBO. I already get to see some HBO series with my Movistar package (for example, Game of Thrones) but I was particularly interested in seeing Chernobyl, which everyone is raving about. So I signed up. No problem, one month and I’m outta there, right?
Or will I be??
My first thought after perusing the series and films on offer was that I should have done this in July or August, when I’d have more free time. There is just so much good shit there! Aside from Chernobyl I also have Killing Eve, Handmade’s Tale, Big Little Lies and the Deadwood movie lined up. And looking back, there always has been great shit there (The Wire, Sopranos, even SATC). So now what? Should I swap Netflix for HBO? Help?
