I had the same problem with Yellowstone as I had with Succession. It's a well made show, but I just didn't care about any of the characters and from everything I read, Yellowstone really went off the rails as the seasons progressed. I wanted to like Yellowstone if for no other reason than Sheridan is a huge fan of Red Dirt music. He's got Ryan Bingham in the show. Both Whiskey Meyers and Shane Smith & The Saints (one of my favorite Texas artists) got huge bumps from having their music on the show. It just wasn't for me though.

I never got into Succession. Maybe someday.

How long have you lived in Texas, anyway?

Too long, it will be 18 years this coming January. I’ve been trying to figure out how I can get back to the Midwest, but so far no luck.

I couldn’t get into “Succession” either… “Industry” 💯

Thx for the shoutout for the show I keep on miscalling “Nobody Likes This.” It’s gotta be a Freudian slip

Thanks for the kind words! Being the guinea pig, er "first guest" of the questionnaire was an honor.

As for shots--and getting old-- 100% yes to all of that. And a co-sign for good measure. Last year, I thought I'd be smart and get caught up on a few vaccinations all at once. This was an incredibly dumb move, even by my normal standards. 0/10. Do not recommend.

I see the Venmo payment cleared! Worth every penny to get multiple billing in “Dare il Cinque!!!” (That’s high five EYE-talian style, son!) I am chuffed as always and now really, REALLY gotta get on the Cowboy Han bandwagon! Rest up. Flex less. Binge more. This is the way ✌🏼💥

Honestly, the Melissa McCarthy thing makes sense to me. She chose to make low-budget star vehicles with her team (specifically her doting husband), ensuring creative control and a bigger share of profits. She could have worked for a lot of talented directors, but instead, she kept dialing up her own husband. Now that she's aged-out of being a leading lady, she can look back and count the money, note the amount of number one movies on her resume, and recall all the good times on set with her very best friend. And hey, there were Oscar nominations in there too! Good for her, I say.
