eye peel

 It's been a while since I made any updates regarding everything that I've been watching these days.

The last series I had binge-watched was 'the break' while in quarantine after which I have personally that is to say on my own, alone not watched much except a few episodes of 'the wolverine' which is an anime which was good but couldn't hold my attention for too long. 

I'm waiting for beastars.

Then I watched /am watching 'Longmire' a crime series set in the West with cowboy hats and all based on novels written by 'Craig Johnson' and though I haven't read any of his novels the series is definitely interesting.

It's a single episode sort of investigation, cop drama mystery with a few characters, a small-town sheriff, his deputies, friends and family. Everything keeps getting knocked between these few characters and every investigation is one episode long. 

It is fun and not very intense but surely interesting.

I'm thinking the novels will be far better than the series in that they will be a really addictive read.

The main character 'Longmire' I really came to enjoy at first but after a bit, he felt like such a dinosaur dad, but nevertheless, it's pretty good and definitely worth giving a try.

Then I watched Criminal Justice, the Indian version and since I've watched all the other ones this one didn't waver much except it was too intense in a way that I don't much like and I might have been browsing the webs while it played in the background..

Not to take anything away from it, the acting and direction were definitely meticulous and some people might even love it. It was okay for me.

Then I watched 'Asur', with Arshad Warsi et al. and it was masala and watchable in a slightly captivating way but if you've watched and read death Note then you know how intense some mysteries of the 'good for the world' can get skewed in a way that can go horribly and nothing comes close to that. It's not bad but I've seen better similar tropes.

I finally caved in after seeing the 98% suggestion rating that Netflix flashed for a series which kept popping on my screen called 'Alice in Borderland' and now I don't know how to stop.

It's Japanese, based on a graphic novel of the same name, which I haven't read and can I just say that it's fantastic.

It has that gaming survival trope which I absolutely adore and two episodes in I am hooked.

This is one of those series I will binge-watch.

Right then, I shall now get to some editing work and curse this world some more.
