Finally got around to finishing Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean with the recent announcement of the new series hitting.  Just when I think this series can't get anymore out there and absurd, it hits a new level of weird lol I could not explain anything about the ending of this show at all, it really went over the top.  Some fun characters and moments, but I'm kinda leaning towards liking this less than the other newer era shows such as Diamond and Golden.  I like Jolyne a good bit, more than Giorno, not sure compared to Josuke, but I think it's just elements like Pucci only being an okay villain to me, and the ending gets kinda too weird in a way that didn't feel all that satisfying.

Nothing bad, but I am interested to see where Steel Ball Run takes things as people are kinda hyping it up a bunch.  Currently I think Stardust Crusaders is still my favorite as I prefer the older style more and I really dig the characters.

Sugar - Very good neo-noir on Apple TV+ starring Colin Farrell.  And, it's not just noir story wise, the beats feel like they are straight out of the 40s or 50s but in a modern setting, with great staging / cinematography / editing, along with a very solid mystery with very interesting twists and turns that are definitely not for everybody.   Doesn't 100% stick the landing, but the build-up worked enough for me.

Watched Hijack on Apple before my sub runs out in a couple of days.  It's like an entire season of dumb 24-style plot twists crammed into 7 episodes. Easily the worst thing I've watched on Apple, but still strangely compelling.

Legend of Vox Machina: Season 3 - Continues to be a fantastic series, it's a quality fantasy setting with great voice acting, good action, and a good story.  I really have no negatives to say about it, this series is a big recommend and I can't wait for Season 4.
