GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I loved how they wrapped up season one of Murderbot, and I love even more that we’ll get a season 2!

Yes! It feels like the people making it love it like I do which is SUCH a TREAT (on top of being a really good adaptation which is great on its own merits)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The last episode in particular was a brilliant way to adapt the end of the novelette for the end of a TV season.

I had forgotten how much it can matter what the document (there is probably a better word but hopefully you know what I mean) that we are reading actually is (ie, letter to Mensah, ReadMe for SecUnits, documentary transcript excerpt, etc) and whether we know that while reading. If I had thought about that prior to watching the show, I would have been worried about how they could possibly handle it

I just finished watching Ballard. on Amazon Prime.
Enjoyed it. Some good puzzles. Excellent cast, excellent acting. Some delightful cameos by characters from Bosch.
A very good hook at the end of ep. 10 to set up season 2.
eta: Leonard Roberts (a.k.a. Forrest Gates from BtVS season 4) had a part in one episode, as a detective.
