I’ve been watching Blue Lock and really enjoying it so far. I usually watch more fantastical anime like JJK, stuff that involves magic or superpowers. This is the first one I’ve watched where the show isn’t based in anything superhuman, but it’s kind of presented that way. Like eyes flash or players get an aura when they’re in the zone, and it really works. Also some genuinely surprising plot development.
I’m over halfway through the latest season of Fargo. This one is a bit more on the nose with its commentary than previous seasons but it’s still better than most TV. Jon Hamm is just sinister in this.
Just started the latest season of The Righteous Gemstones. I love this show because I came out of a conservative Christian household so all the observations about the hypocrisy of megachurch culture ring especially true for me.

Oh man. Perfectly skewers megachurch culture. Outrageous, over the top characters. Can be surprisingly heartfelt at times but also random dick shots that give you no warning whatsoever. It has a very Danny McBride feel, so if you like his other stuff you’ll like this.
